Question
What steps has the Government taken and what progress has the Government made in aiming to secure the devolution of the Health and Safety Executive to Wales?
Answer
Answered by Minister for Social Partnership
The UK Government has committed to reviewing health and safety guidance and regulations as part of its Plan to Make Work Pay. Our priority is to work with the UK Government on this agenda and to deliver its new Employment Rights Bill which will strengthen workers’ protections, enhance trade union rights, and improve enforcement. I will be raising the remit and resourcing of the HSE in my discussions with UK Ministers on these issues.
