Which stakeholders did the Welsh Government engage with in developing the Welsh Defence Ethical Framework?

Answered by Cabinet Minister for Enterprise, Connectivity and Energy | Answered on 25/09/2026

The Welsh Defence Ethical Investment Framework is currently being developed and refined. As set out in my oral statement, the Welsh Government is undertaking a programme of engagement with stakeholders to inform the Framework's development and implementation.

This engagement will include businesses, representative organisations, trade unions, relevant public bodies and government partners.

Engagement with the UK Government and other relevant stakeholders will take place as the Framework is further developed.

Decisions on specific aspects of implementation, future engagement activity, and any support arrangements will be considered through the drafting process and as part of the planned review of the Framework following its introduction.
