flag Wales drops plan to ban deceptive politicians, replacing judicial oversight with political committee, delaying reforms.

flag Welsh ministers have abandoned a 2024 pledge to bar politicians convicted of deliberate deception from serving in the Senedd, replacing promised independent judicial oversight with an internal political committee to handle recall cases. flag The new accountability bill requires a two-thirds majority in a politician-led committee to approve recall guidance, raising conflict-of-interest concerns. flag The ban on candidates will not apply to the upcoming May election, with implementation delayed indefinitely, prompting criticism over weakened democratic accountability and eroding public trust.
