A bill has been proposed by Welsh lawmakers to introduce a “small” visitor levy that could see visitors to the country paying up to £1.25 per night by 2027.

Finance secretary Mark Drakeford introduced the bill on Monday, 25 November for consideration by the Senedd, the Welsh Parliament, who will scrutinise and vote on the legislation. A final decision may not be made until 2025.
