Inquiry into COVID-19 and its impact on matters relating to the Public Accounts Committee’s remit

The Public Accounts Committee undertook an inquiry into the Covid-19 outbreak in Wales during the summer 2020 term. The inquiry considered the impact of coronavirus, and the response to it, on the following areas:

·         The economic impact of Covid-19 (Cross referenced to the inquiry on Welsh Government Financial Support for Business);

·         COVID-19: impacts for the Welsh Government’s Education and Public Services Group;

·         The Welsh Government’s response to Covid-19; and

·         Impact on the Senedd Commission.

 

Following the Firebreak Lockdown in Wales in October/November 2020, the Committee agreed to return to this area of work and held evidence sessions with the Welsh Government in November 2020, on the (then) current impact on Health, Education and Local Government.
