 The role and responsibilities of the Senedd have changed significantly since the National Assembly for Wales was created in 1999. Today's Senedd makes laws and sets Welsh taxes. These decisions affect everyone in Wales. But while its responsibilities have grown, the size of the Senedd has not kept pace. With just 60 members, it is far smaller than its UK counterparts. The Scottish Parliament has 129 members and the Northern Ireland Assembly has 90. The Senedd Cymru Members and Elections Bill aims to create a Welsh parliament that reflects modern Wales. It will strengthen democracy in Wales. The bill sets out changes to the way we elect members of the Senedd to represent the many different views of people in Wales. More members in the Senedd to scrutinise legislation, the Welsh Budget and Taxes, and to hold the Welsh Government to account. A return to holding Senedd Elections every four years. Members of the Senedd are now scrutinising the bill in detail. If they decide to pass this bill, the changes will be in place for the 2026 election.
