What can Wales expect from the Budget next week?

Date:

The Welsh government will set out its own draft budget for the next financial year in early December.

Welsh Labour do not have a majority in the Senedd so will need to make a deal with other parties in order to pass its budget.

Drakeford said that he had met all three opposition parties in the Senedd and would be following up with them “when we know how the Budget at the UK level has had an impact on Wales”.

He said passing the Welsh budget was a collective responsibility, not just for the Labour Welsh government, saying “responsibility for passing a budget lies with the Senedd as a whole”.

Opposition parties did not agree.

Kurtz said it was “for the Labour government in Cardiff Bay to come forward with a proposal that does come and cover some of the issues that we want addressed here in Wales”.

And Lake added if Labour was “unable to get their budget through the Senedd, that is very much their failure, and not the institution of the Senedd”.
