Motion NDM7786 Lesley Griffiths

To propose that the Senedd:

1. Recognises the potential for a vacant land tax in Wales to contribute to increasing housing supply and bringing idle land into productive use.

2. Regrets the failure of the UK Government to take forward this proposal in line with the provisions of the Wales Act 2014.

3. Calls on the UK Government to work with Welsh Government to ensure there is an effective process for enabling the devolution of legislative competence over new areas of taxation to the Senedd.
