Secretary of State for Wales

The Secretary of State for Wales is a government minister in the UK responsible for representing Welsh interests in the UK government. They oversee policies related to Wales, coordinate between the Welsh government and the UK government, and manage areas like infrastructure, economy, and devolved services. They work to ensure that decisions made at the national level consider Wales's needs while supporting devolution—the transfer of certain powers from the UK Parliament to Wales's own government. The role helps ensure Wales’s voice is considered in broader UK policymaking while respecting its devolved powers.
