Will the Minister list which local authorities in Wales have complied with the requirement in the Public Health (Wales) Act 2017 to publish a local toilets strategy for their areas?
The Public Health (Wales) Act 2017 (the Act) required each local authority in Wales to produce and publicise a local toilets strategy by 31 May 2019. The Act does not require the Welsh Government to monitor compliance by local authorities in respect of local toilets strategies. Each local authority is responsible for how their local toilet strategies are produced, published, disseminated and reviewed and are accountable to their local populations and representatives. This was made clear during the passage of the Act.
The Welsh Government has provided guidance to local authorities on developing local toilet strategies: https://gov.wales/public-toilets-guidance-local-authorities
