Llywydd,

This is a simple legislative consent motion that seeks to extend the scope of the NWC to Wales, and will allow us to appoint a representative to this Commission.

There is little reason to not support such legislation, and as such we will be urging the support of the entire Siambr in this matter.

The National Women’s Commission is an important step towards ensuring the equality of women in all aspects of life, and will allow better investigations into missteps within the law that might have otherwise gone overlooked, or not needed police investigation.

Voting on this motion will end at the close of business on 18th of June at 10pm BST
