Mark Drakeford MS, Cabinet Secretary for Finance and Welsh Language
Today, I am publishing the summary of responses to the consultation on the legislative proposals relating to the Welsh Tax Acts.
The consultation sought views on several proposed changes that are technical in nature and are intended to clarify, enhance and future-proof our devolved tax legislation and to support wider public service delivery in Wales.
I would like to thank all the respondents to this consultation. The majority of responses to this consultation were largely supportive of the proposals and offered insightful feedback to support further policy development. The consultation has affirmed our view the proposed changes to the Welsh Tax Acts would ensure that the Welsh Revenue Authority can continue to manage Welsh taxes as effectively as possible and keep delivering for Wales.
It will be for the next Welsh Government to decide whether to introduce a Bill to Senedd Cymru to seek to give effect to the proposals included in this consultation.
