Purpose of the consultation
The Standards of Conduct Committee is undertaking an inquiry into Dignity and Respect.
The Senedd agreed a dignity and respect policy in 2018 which set out the right for everyone to feel safe and protected when interacting with the Senedd. This policy applied to Members of the Senedd, their support staff and Commission staff. Alongside this, the fifth Senedd Standards of Conduct Committee undertook an inquiry into ‘Creating the Right Culture’ which sought to make sure the culture in the Senedd was one which was positive and open.
Five years on from the work, the Committee is keen to review the progress made in this area, ensure the conversation in this area continues and consider whether further steps could be taken.
The Committee would welcome your views on the questions posed in this consultation and anything else on the topic that you consider relevant. Please submit your response by 22 January 2024 to Seneddstandards@Senedd.wales
