QNR – in the Senedd on 24 November 2021.
Safeguarding our communities remains the Welsh Government’s top priority and we will continue to discharge our devolved responsibilities to do so. We have commissioned the Law Commission to review the legislation, and we will look to bring forward new legislation to allow us to manage disused coal tips in Wales.
I met recently with Sir Christopher Bellamy QC who is leading this independent review and I understand that it remains on schedule to be finalised this year.
Our union of four nations is under pressure like never before and there is an urgent need for reform. The time is right for a serious national conversation, one that will help shape a more sustainable future for the people of Wales.
