Does the Cabinet Minister support Vale of Glamorgan Council's decision to become a County of Sanctuary?

Answered by Deputy First Minister and Cabinet Minister for Social Justice and Equality | Answered on 03/08/2026

I refer you to my previous answers given to Cai Parry-Jones and Dan Thomas: WQ99465, WQ99336, WQ99332, WQ99884 and to the answer provided by the Cabinet Minister for Local Government, Housing and Planning to Dan Thomas: WQ99117, which sets out the Welsh Government’s position.

Decisions by local government on becoming a County of Sanctuary are a matter for individual local authorities.
