Adam Price AM has called for an investigation into the circumstances whereby the Welsh Government appeared to suddenly change its policy on freedom of movement.
A press release by the government saying that freedom of movement should be maintained was changed, with the sentence taken out of the subsequent version, and evidence pointing to the fact that the policy as stated on the government website was changed retrospectively.
Plaid Cymru Shadow Cabinet Secretary for Economy and Finance Adam Price said:
“Doctoring a government website, which set out the government’s official position, to reflect a change in the political weather can never be accepted.
“I have no idea whether this case a case of cock-up or conspiracy but we clearly need an independent investigation into the circumstances under which the government policy changed, and why the press web notice was changed retrospectively.
“If this has been done to avoid embarrassment to the First Minister then it is clearly a very serious matter indeed.”
