The eight new laws the Welsh Government wants to make this year

Mark Drakeford has announced eight laws the Welsh Government wants to introduce in the coming year. These include expanding and diversifying the Senedd, dealing with dangerous coal tips and possible changes to council tax.

The First Minister said: “This forthcoming year will have an unrelenting focus on reform to make positive changes in the lives of the people of Wales.
