SCME281 Ymateb gan:  | Response from: Sian Baker
_____________________________________________________________________________________

Sir,

I would wish, in the first instance, to advise that I am wholly and totally opposed to the increase in number of Senedd Members to 96 and hence would oppose the progress of this bill in it’s entirety.

This preposterous increase and associated costs offer a situation (not improvement or solution) that is totally at odds to what is needed at the Senedd at this time.

(Abolition is a solution that comes to mind when one considers the utter catastrophes the current body has created in Health and Education to name but two of their areas of responsibility.)

To try to bury this increase in this rather extensive bill is a further example of the actions of the Senedd being totally at odds with the wishes of the Welsh electorate at this time.

Regards

Siân Baker
