Questions to the Cabinet Minister for Government Effectiveness and the Constitution
The Welsh civil service sits within the UK-wide Civil Service Commission framework. But that governs only whether appointments follow due process, not whether the institution is fit to deliver for Wales. The UK Government sits within that same framework and…
