  • Written Evidences Submitted by Paul Evans and Paul Silk*(TTC 03) Summary This Paper Responds to the Procedure Committee's Call
    Written evidences submitted by Paul Evans and Paul Silk*(TTC 03) Summary This paper responds to the Procedure Committee’s call for evidence in its inquiry into the procedure of the House of Commons and the territorial constitution. It proposes: The establishment of a permanent inter-parliamentary Body comprised of Members of the four UK legislatures to hold to account the Joint Ministerial Committee or any successor UK intergovernmental organisation. Changes to the standing orders of the House of Commons to enable joint working between all its committees and committees of the UK’s devolved legislatures. Rethinking the role of the territorial Grand Committees, and the establishment of an English Grand Committee to consider legislative consent motions relating to matters relating exclusively to England. A radical simplification of the standing orders relating to English Votes for English Laws. Integration of procedures relating to the operation of the Sewel Convention into the mainstream of the House’s legislative procedures. Other measures to enhance interparliamentary co-operation between Members of the UK’s legislatures. We note that on 6 November the Committee announced its intention of focussing its inquiries on the procedural steps necessary to facilitate greater joint working between House of Commons committees and the relevant committees of other UK legislatures to ensure effective scrutiny of common frameworks. While the scrutiny of the common frameworks provides an immediate impetus for better interparliamentary co-operation, we consider that this should be the launching pad for enhanced and deeper interparliamentary working in the longer term. ___________________________ *Paul Evans CBE is a former Clerk of Committees in the House of Commons.

  • 2020 Flood Survey Report
    1 "WE HAVE BEEN FORGOTTEN ABOUT." 2020 FLOOD SURVEY REPORT Commissioned by Leanne Wood MS and Rhondda Cynon Taf Plaid Cymru Councillors regarding flooding in Rhondda Cynon Taf in 2020 Written by C. AMOSS. 2 3 Contents 04 Statement by Leanne Wood MS 05 Introduction 06 Executive Summary 08 Pontypridd Constituency Flooding 16 Rhondda Constituency Flooding 30 Cynon Valley Constituency Flooding 34 Impact and After Effects : Conclusion 37 Recommendations 38 Appendix 4 Statement by Leanne Wood MS In February many people’s lives were turned upside down when Storm Dennis resulted in water entering their homes and businesses. Some people had been flooded before and some were flooded after that day in February, but more havoc was wreaked during that one weather event than had ever been seen in our communities. Scientists have been warning for years that the impacts of the climate crisis will be felt by more people as time goes on. As well as working to combat the causes of the climate crisis, governments – both local and national – have a duty to keep people safe and do whatever is possible to prevent people from being flooded. They should also provide support and do everything in their power to protect people and property in the future. This report analyses the survey responses of those who were flooded in Rhondda Cynon Taf and makes recommendations for action. It also shows the human cost of these floods and the toll it takes on the physical and mental health of many affected – something that has been noticeably absent from the documents produced by the authorities to date.

  • Written Evidence from Elin Jones MS (TEC 33) Public Administration And
    Written evidence from Elin Jones MS (TEC 33) Public Administration and Constitutional Affairs Committee The Work of the Electoral Commission inquiry I write in my capacity as the Llywydd (Presiding Officer) of the Welsh Parliament, commonly known as the Senedd, in response to the Committee’s call for evidence on the work of the Electoral Commission. This letter provides a summary of the interaction between the Electoral Commission and the Senedd within the context of devolved responsibility for elections. I have provided this as background context to assist the Committee in its inquiry. The funding and accountability arrangements of the Electoral Commission Amendments made to the Government of Wales Act 2006 by the Wales Act 2017 transferred responsibility for devolved Welsh Elections and devolved Welsh referendums from the UK Parliament to the Senedd. This included competence to legislate on the financing of the Electoral Commission and the preparation of reports by the Electoral Commission about the performance of its functions.1 The Senedd legislated earlier this year to allow for the Electoral Commission’s estimated expenditure in relation to devolved Welsh elections and devolved Welsh referendums to be funded from 2021-22 onwards from the Welsh Consolidated Fund.2 In accordance with this legislation, the Senedd has established a new committee, the Llywydd’s Committee, to scrutinise the Electoral Commission’s financial estimates and five-year work plans.3 This Committee is chaired by the Deputy Presiding Officer of the Senedd. It met for the first time on 6 November this year and subsequently published a report4 on its scrutiny of the Electoral Commission’s estimate for 2021-22 and current five-year plan.

  • Programme for Government
    PROGRAMME FOR GOVERNMENT WELSH GOVERNMENT Programme for Government gov.wales 1 PROGRAMME FOR GOVERNMENT Foreword Today, I am proud to be publishing the Welsh Government’s Programme for the 6th Senedd. This Programme for Government is being published much earlier than has been the case in previous years as I want to demonstrate to the people of Wales that they can have absolute confidence that their government is moving quickly and purposefully to turn the commitments that we made during the election into Mark Drakeford MS prompt action. FIRST MINISTER OF WALES Our government programme sets out the ambitious and radical commitments we will deliver over the next five years in order to tackle the challenges that we face and improve the lives of people across Wales. It is founded on the distinctively Welsh values of community, equality and social justice. It puts collaboration ahead of competition, showing how we will act to maximise fairness for all and eliminate inequality at every level of society. People in Wales look after each other, and this programme is built on exactly that principle. The Programme for Government shows how we will help the NHS and social care providers to recover and move forward following the extraordinary challenges they have faced this year, investing in the frontline staff who have worked so hard and who have made us so proud. It outlines how we will work in social partnership to create new jobs in the industries of the future, and to transform our economy into one which is greener and fairer. The Programme shows how we will act decisively to tackle the climate and nature emergency so that people can go on treasuring Wales’ rich natural resources for generations to come.

Divide your class into small groups and challenge the pupils to design a parliament building fit for the modern age. Encourage the pupils to read the technical specification and overview of functions (below) before working in a team to sketch their ideas. You could subdivide the teams, with some pupils focusing on the exterior and others concentrating on the internal features. As an alternative to paper, you could ask the pupils to use an app such as Minecraft or Minecraft Education Edition to design their buildings in a three-dimensional form. Pupil Challenge Tell the pupils that Parliament Buildings, Stormont was designed and built in the 1930s in a neoclassical architectural style. Ask them: If you were to design a brand new building to house the Northern Ireland Assembly, what would it look like? Encourage the pupils to consider: • size • location • function • the number of people it would need to cater for • transport links • sustainability, including renewable energy • the symbolism of the architecture Ask each group to consider the technical specification below before designing their buildings and presenting their ideas to the class. ©The Electoral Office for Northern Ireland / CCEA 1 Key Stage 3: Extension Design Your Own Parliament The Scottish Parliament and Welsh Assembly are both housed in modern buildings located in city centres.
