Question
What plans, if any, does the Welsh Government have to bring forward an armed forces commissioner for Wales?
Answer
Answered by First Minister (Mark Drakeford)
In February this year the UK Government announced plans to appoint a Wales Veterans’ Commissioner. As a government we were not consulted on this proposal. No clear timeframe for the appointment of the post has yet been set out. Against this background, there are no proposals for a separate Welsh Government funded Commissioner.
