this was the first meeting of the Welsh Parliament and that the name now
reflected the range of powers and responsibilities that the Senedd exercises on
behalf of the people of Wales. The Llywydd stated that
although the institution’s name had formally changed, the priority remaied the
same as it has done over the past weeks - responding to the Coronavirus crisis
and that now, more than ever, the citizens of Wales expected a strong national
parliament working in their interests. |
