Venue: The Senedd
Plenary meetings take place in the Siambr every Tuesday and Wednesday. We had an opportunity to witness a plenary meeting with Edwina Hart (Minister for Business, Enterprise, Technology and Science). Various questions were put towards her regarding issues in the community. Of particular interest was the discussion on finance and capital for Welsh small businesses, which the honourable minister assured will be available in the coming year. Other issues discussed related to the bus service and the cost of running it.
The Senedd is the National Assembly building,here issues relating to Wales are debated. The Presiding Officer is Rosemary Butler AM, her role is to chair meetings in the National Assembly. The Senedd was built at a cost of £69.6million to build and is part of the National Assembly estate in Cardiff Bay.
