National Assembly for Wales Communities

The National Assembly for Wales Communities, now known as the Senedd Cymru or Welsh Parliament, is the devolved legislative body responsible for making decisions on issues that affect Wales, such as health, education, and local government. It represents the people of Wales, debates policies, and passes laws to address regional needs. The Assembly works alongside local councils and the UK Parliament but has specific powers granted by the Welsh devolution settlement. Its goal is to improve the well-being of Wales and ensure that local communities have a say in their governance.
