Motion NDM7455 Helen Mary Jones, Joyce Watson, Leanne Wood
Supported by John Griffiths, Llyr Gruffydd, Mick Antoniw
To propose that the Senedd:
1. Believes that the UK Government should have held discussions with the Welsh Government and local representatives before housing asylum seekers at the Penally military base, near Tenby.
2. Believes that the decision should be reconsidered because it is an unsuitable place for asylum seekers, as it is isolated from appropriate support networks.
3. Condemns the violent protests organised by far-right groups from outside Pembrokeshire.
4. Praises local residents and volunteers from across Wales who have welcomed and supported the asylum seekers.
