Asked by: Liz Saville Roberts (Plaid Cymru - Dwyfor Meirionnydd)

Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what discussions she has had with the Welsh Government on the desired governance end state for policing in Wales following the policing white paper; when those discussions took place; and what the outcomes were.

Answered by Sarah Jones - Minister of State (Home Office)

We are working closely with the Welsh Government, as well as other Welsh Stakeholders including Welsh local government, police forces and other partners, to ensure new governance arrangements provide strong and effective police governance in Wales.

Officials have established a specific Welsh transition working group as part of the Police Governance Reform project, which last met on 22 January. Welsh Government officials are members of this Board and Home Office and Welsh Government officials speak regularly to develop proposals. The Minister for Policing and Crime regularly speaks to the Welsh Government’s Cabinet Secretary for Social Justice, Jane Hutt MS, and she attended the Policing Partnership Board for Wales on 18 December. The Minister plans to attend the next Board on 5 March.

We will continue to work collaboratively with Welsh stakeholders on the design and implementation of governance arrangements in Wales.

Written Question
Driving Licences: Wales
Tuesday 10th February 2026

Asked by: Liz Saville Roberts (Plaid Cymru - Dwyfor Meirionnydd)

Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, what discussions she has had with the Welsh Government on the potential merits of introducing a Graduate Driving License scheme in Wales.

Answered by Simon Lightwood - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Department for Transport)

Graduated Driving Licences and how these are implemented around the world vary, there is not one standard type.

Whilst we are not considering further restrictions on newly qualified drivers such as carrying passengers or driving at night, we are consulting on a Minimum Learning Period in England, Scotland, and Wales before learner drivers can take their test.

Additionally, we are considering further post-test measures as part of the motoring offences consultation, where views are being sought on a lower blood alcohol limit for novice drivers in England and Wales.

My officials meet regularly with their counterparts in the Devolved Authorities, including those in Wales.
