Minutes:
The Committee considered an analysis on the recent increase in the usage of the Senedd’s petitions process. The Committee agreed some adjustments to its approach to considering petitions to support it to identify those issues that would benefit from more detailed scrutiny, and to seek to resolve most petitions within a shorter period of time given the proximity of the next Senedd elections.
The Committee also noted the significant number of petitions that are currently exceeding the 5000 signature threshold and agreed to consider this issue further, including options for amending the threshold on a temporary or permanent basis, at its next meeting.
The Committee also considered the current list of debates
requested and agreed to no longer seek a debate on its report on P-04-433 CCTV
in Slaughterhouses and P-05-916 Adequate funding to protect the welfare of farm
animals in Welsh slaughterhouses, which was published in January 2020 but was
not able to be debated at that time. In light of the time that has now passed,
the Committee agreed to close the petitions and thank the petitioners for their
engagement.
