WQ100648 (e) Tabled on 22/09/2026

Has the Welsh Government received any legal advice that a Senedd Bill for independence or for an independence referendum would be outside the Senedd's legislative competence?

Answered by Counsel General | Answered on 29/09/2026

The Welsh Government’s recently published Programme for Government clearly states that we will “formally request the devolution of the right to decide on the timeline, question, and process for an independence referendum".
