BBC Radio Wales - How Covid Made the Senedd Matter

Dot Davies investigates how Covid has transformed Wales' understanding of the Senedd.

Dot Davies looks at how the political lessons learned from Covid may impact the future of the Senedd, 20 years after the devolved national parliament was founded in Wales.

Dot Davies investigates how Covid has transformed Wales's understanding and appreciation of its own national government and Senedd.

It's been over 20 years since the devolved national parliament was founded in Wales. And yet, many in Wales had little idea of what the Senedd really did, or who was calling the shots. Covid changed it all. Welsh politics and politicians became interesting.

Have two years of vital and visible governance affected Wales's sense of identity, the profile of her parliament, and her relationship with the rest of the UK? And -what are the political lessons of Covid that the Senedd should carry into the future?

Produced by Dan Potts.
