The Welsh Government has announced that responsibility for the Wales Spatial Plan, adopted by the National Assembly for Wales in 2004, will move from the Local Government and Communities portfolio to the Environment and Sustainable Development portfolio with effect from 1 April 2012.
As a consequence the regional ministerial and officials’ structures relating to the Wales Spatial Plan will be discontinued. The Welsh Government has also signalled that it will shortly publish proposals for a Sustainable Development Bill that will embed the principles of sustainable development in the work of all Welsh public bodies.
