Atebwyd gan Senedd Commission
The Welsh Youth Parliament is run directly by the Senedd and receives an allocated annual budget from the Senedd Commission Engagement Service budget.
The actual spend figures for the Welsh Youth Parliament for the past five years are as follows:
Total Spend
2021-22
52,564
2022-23
61,068
2023-24
48,403
2024-25
58,535
2025-26
50,470
2026-27
2,285
The variance in spend between financial years is due to changes to where WYP Regional meetings were held (pre 2023-24, regional meetings were held across two different locations in different parts of Wales, but since then they are held across two), and in 2024-25 a WYP Election was held which involves additional costs including payment to an external election provider.
The Welsh Youth Parliament has two dedicated staff members, one part time programme lead and one that provides administrative support full time.
