Mae’r Senedd, fel y’i gelwir, yn deddfu ar gyfer Cymru, yn cytuno ar drethi yng Nghymru, ac yn dwyn Llywodraeth Cymru i gyfrif. The Welsh Parliament is the democratically elected body that represents the interests of Wales and its people. Commonly known as the Senedd, it makes laws for Wales, agrees Welsh taxes and holds the Welsh Government to account.

Awareness and understanding of the Act and its implications. With all the current pressures and financial pressures, organisations aren’t really considering what Wales will look like in the future, as they are often focussed on the here and now. It is often difficult to change this culture. We have found that awareness of the Act is visible at senior levels across the council, but it’s more difficult to get lower level staff to connect the Act with their day job and for them to understand the bigger picture. While this Act is significant, it is often only a small part of the jigsaw with so many other acts which public bodies are expected to comply with an implement. In local government for example, different services will have differing priorities, and it often falls to the corporate centre to try and drive such cross-cutting principles, that are laid out in the WBFG Act. 2. The resources available to public bodies to implement the Act and how effectively they have been deployed. Very little dedicated resource is available, and the expectation is for organisations to implement the requirements of the Act as part of their current responsibilities. While this is acceptable in principle i.e. that the Act should be embedded into existing processes and practices, often greater effort and resources are required at the start to help with the embedding process. From a Public Service Board perspective, resources if often raised as an issue and barrier at meetings. Similarly, the resource for coordinating PSB’s activities often falls with Local Authorities, which sometime results in dis-engagement rather than engagement from some partners, as LA’s are seen as the leaders. 3. Support provided to public bodies by the Future Generations Commissioner. There seems to be an expectation that there will be a dedicated adoption by local authorities but with no funding or appropriate tools provided. We need focused recommendations, and it would be beneficial to have conversations with someone from the FG office about ‘what it looks like’ to us. 299 recommendations from the FG Commissioners Report is unmanageable. The Future Generations Report 2020 report says the same thing in different ways, multiple times. Would it have been easier to have consolidated a few? It seemed a bit repetitive and unapproachable. It’s hard to encourage people to embrace this way of thinking, when providing such massive reports. They are encouraging an integrated and holistic way of working in order to embed the FG act but in reality it is being presented as a larger standalone task.
