Scrutinising the Welsh Government’s response to coronavirus: key issues from Senedd Committees

Published 03/07/2020   |   Last Updated 27/05/2021   |   Reading Time minutes

On 3 July the Senedd’s Committee for Scrutiny of the First Minister will scrutinise the First Minister, Mark Drakeford MS, on the Welsh Government’s approach to tackling the coronavirus pandemic. The First Minister will be accompanied by the  Counsel General and Minister for European Transition, Jeremy Miles MS, as the Minister responsible for co-ordinating the Welsh Government’s work on recovery. The Committee is comprised of the Chairs of all other Senedd Committees and normally meets once per term.

 

During the pandemic, Senedd Committees have focused their work on the impact of the virus and how the Welsh Government has responded. This research paper does not consider all of the issues arising from the pandemic which have emerged during scrutiny. Rather it focuses on key, forward looking issues. It has been prepared to support Members of the Committee. However, we are publishing it given the wider public interest in the pandemic response.
