Will the Minister confirm whose decision is was to not proceed with the introduction of the Senedd Cymru (Electoral Candidate Lists) Bill on 4 December 2023, and the reasons for that decision?
Answered by Deputy Minister for Social Partnership | Answered on 18/12/2023
The decision to not introduce the Senedd Cymru (Electoral Candidate Lists) Bill on 4 December was made by Welsh Ministers to enable further work to be carried out on the legislation.
This work is being carried out in collaboration with Rhun ap Iorwerth, the Plaid Cymru designated member, as part of the Co-operation Agreement between the Welsh Government and Plaid Cymru.
