Welsh Government has not made any representations to the UK Government because the UK’s position on settlements is clear. The UK consider the settlements as illegal under international law, present an obstacle to peace, and threaten the physical viability of a two-state solution.

South-west Wales is an outstanding visitor destination and I am delighted that our industry barometer showed that the region had a strong summer season in 2019. We have continually invested to improve the quality of the local offer, and are committed to continuing to grow tourism to this area.
