The leader of Plaid Cymru will give his response to the report of the Independent Commission on the Constitutional Future of Wales at an event organised by Aberystwyth University at the end of this month.
After the Constitutional Commission – Mapping the Road to Independence takes place at 6.30pm on Wednesday 31 January at the Norwegian Church Arts Centre in Cardiff Bay.
Organised by Aberystwyth University’s Centre for Welsh Politics and Society (CWPS), attendees will have the opportunity to hear Rhun ap Iorwerth MS, leader of Plaid Cymru, respond to the report and reflect on the implications for Plaid Cymru’s policy of independence for Wales.
The event will be chaired by Dr Anwen Elias, CWPS Co-Director and member of the Independent Commission on the Constitutional Future of Wales. She said:
“The Independent Commission has started a national conversation about Wales’s constitutional future; this event will help ensure that this conversation now continues. I look forward to hearing Mr ap Iorwerth reflect on the opportunities and challenges that independence presents for Wales’s constitutional future.”
This event welcomes people of all political persuasions and none. The speech will be followed by a Q&A, and a chance for further discussion.
