Plaid call for “clear timetable” for legislation — and warn against depending on Westminster
Responding to the news that people from parts of England, Scotland and northern Ireland that have high rates of Coronavirus will be banned from travelling to Wales from Friday,
Plaid Cymru Leader Adam Price MS said,
Â
“This announcement is long overdue and I’m pleased to see the Welsh Government finally taking this necessary course of action to protect the people of Wales.
Â
“We now need a clear timetable for exactly when the draft legislation will be ready to publish, the proposed timescales and plans for implementation and how this is to be communicated across the UK. With half term arriving for much of England next week, timing is now critical.”
Â
“Let this be a lesson to Welsh Government. Continued correspondence with Downing Street will not get us the answers we want. We should have learnt our lessons from the first wave: depending on Westminster does not work for Wales.
