Welsh Government's International Strategy

The Welsh Government’s 2020 International Strategy and accompanying action plans will come to an end in 2025.

The Culture, Communications, Welsh Language, Sport, and International Relations Committee will consider the impact of the strategy and the Welsh Government’s approach to international relations beyond 2025.

The Committee will explore issues such as:

>>>> 

>>>The success of the International Strategy and priorities for the Welsh Government’s international relations beyond 2025.

>>>How the Welsh Government’s priority relationships align to the strategy’s aims and objectives.

>>>The availability of information relating to the Welsh Government’s  international activities and delivery of the strategy.

>>>The Welsh Government’s future approach to Wales’s international relations.

>>>How the Welsh Government’s international relations activity is resourced.

On 13 December 2024, the First Minister confirmed to the Committee for the Scrutiny of the First Minister that she intends to publish an International Strategy Delivery Plan (ISDP) in “early 2025”. The ISDP will:

1. replace plans for the anticipated refresh of the International Strategy; and

2. set out the International Strategy’s remaining activities for delivery in the rest of the Sixth Senedd.

The Committee will consider the anticipated ISDP before proceeding to take further evidence for this inquiry in the Summer term.
