Labour is working with the people of Wales to build a country that is successful, confident, and ambitious.
Our three first stage policy consultation documents for the next set of elections to the National Assembly for Wales in 2011 have been published.
These documents have been broken down into two sections – our current government programme and future challenges to be addressed.
The intention behind this structure is that it will allow you to comment on both the current work of the government and on our future priorities as we head towards the next Assembly Election in 2011. Throughout the document we have set some suggested questions. These are intended to structure your debates, but if there is an issue or question you feel should be covered then please include these in your response.
We would welcome submissions from all sections of society, from individuals to interest groups and other organisations and societies.
In order for your submission to be properly processed please include the name of your organisation and a named contact (with full address, phone number and e-mail) with your submission.
For more information please contact Welsh Labour on 029 20 877700.

Since 1999, Wales has seen the biggest drop in unemployment of any part of the United Kingdom and a rise of 130,000 in the total number of new jobs. We will now take action to step up this rate of success in the years ahead, with science, technology and research to the fore. Read more>>
