I really fear that we won't see the scrutiny of Welsh Government actions, good and bad, that Welsh people deserve. What we have, having refused a Welsh-specific inquiry, we see Ministers themselves commissioning community health councils to gather public opinion on the COVID response. There's the inquiry that Welsh Government has commissioned itself into hospital-acquired infections—pseudo inquiries 'with the Government marking its own homework,' as one campaigner told me. Does the Trefnydd agree with me that there's a very real danger here of Wales falling in between two stools?
