Wales Bill

The Wales Bill is legislation intended to define and expand the powers of the Welsh government and parliament, clarifying their responsibilities regarding areas like health, education, and transportation. It aims to give Wales more control over its affairs while clarifying the relationship between the Welsh government and the UK Parliament. The bill also establishes legal frameworks for financial and legislative matters, ensuring a clear and stable process for devolution—transferring certain powers from the UK government to Wales. Overall, it seeks to strengthen Wales’s self-governance within the UK.
