    One Wales : a progressive agenda for the government of Wales - LGIU Page 1 of 7 LGIU Local Government Information Unit Independent Intelligent Information One Wales : a progressive agenda for the government of Wales (LGIUandSTEER) 26/7/2007 Author: Juliet Morris Reference No: PB 1553/07L This covers: Wales Overview Talks between the political parties following the National Assembly for Wales elections in May concluded, earlier this month, with an agreement between the Labour Party in Wales and Plaid Cymru to govern in coalition. Last week, First Minister, Rhodri Morgan, announced his new ministerial team of Labour and Plaid Cymru Assembly Members (AMs) and described One Wales as “the blueprint for our next four years in Government”. In effect, it provides the strategic agenda for the new Welsh Assembly Government. One Wales – a progressive agenda for the government of Wales draws together a range of commitments made in the respective parties’ manifestos. It expresses a shared commitment to governing in coalition for a full term of office (i.e. until the elections in May 2011) and sets out a wide range of specific actions which the coalition government intends to progress: “This programme for government is ambitious yet realistic. It is radical yet deliverable. It makes best use of the powers and resources available to the government and puts on the agenda whether further changes are needed." This briefing outlines the broad direction and details the actions of most interest to local authorities. These are most notable in relation to: z governance - at local and national levels z regional economic development z schools' organisation z affordable and social housing z rural support and development z sustainability and energy.

  • Huw Lewis AM Minister for Education and Skills Welsh Government 5Th Floor, Tŷ Hywel Cardiff Bay, CF99 1NA
    Huw Lewis AM Minister for Education and Skills Welsh Government 5th Floor, Tŷ Hywel Cardiff Bay, CF99 1NA By email: [email protected] 8th January 2016 Dear Mr Lewis, I am writing on behalf of the above UK-wide and Welsh organisations. We recognise the many positive policies introduced by the Welsh Labour Government to strengthen Wales’ research base, such as appointing the first Welsh Chief Scientific Adviser and developing the 2011 'Science for Wales' strategy. However, we would like to express our concern at the 32% (£41 million) cut to the budget of the Higher Education Funding Council for Wales (HEFCW) proposed in the Welsh Government’s draft Budget in December. HEFCW has a vital function investing in research in Welsh universities particularly through the Quality- Related (QR) funding stream. This forms one half of the dual-support system and provides essential flexibility and autonomy to higher education institutions. It enables them to explore new avenues of research and pursue excellence in line with their institution’s strengths. This supports them to attract top academic talent and greater levels of funding from the UK Research Councils and European Union, as well as to meet the full cost of research, including research in partnership with charities and industry. As demonstrated in Sir John Cadogan’s report for The Learned Society of Wales, blue-skies research underpins later success in applied research and innovation1. This brings great economic, social, and health benefits. It also leverages further investment from industry: for each pound invested by the Government in R&D, private sector output rises by 20p each year in perpetuity2.

  • Ministerial Resettlement Grant
    Ministerial resettlement grant 27 July 2018 Request for Information. Thank you for your request received on 3 July in which you asked: Under the Freedom of Information Act, please list the resettlement grant paid to each Minister that has left the Government since Carwyn Jones was elected First Minister, date of payment, and the formula used to calculate the amount. If the individuals concerned left the Assembly at the same time as they left the Government, please include only that resettlement grant involving their Ministerial role. Carwyn Jones was elected First Minister in December 2009. Ministers may leave Government at any time but only receive the office holders payment when they leave the Assembly as Assembly Members, either by standing down at an election or if they are defeated. This payment is not necessarily received the same time as the main resettlement grant it could be received later. The table below shows the Office Holder Resettlement Grant paid to a Minister (Assembly Member) and the date that payment was received.
