Cadw writes:
… Minister for Arts and Sport, and Chief Whip [has] announced the launch of a twelve-week public consultation on Public Commemoration in Wales: Guidance for Public Bodies.
This is best-practice guidance for various public bodies, intended to help them reach well-informed decisions about existing and future public commemorations. It follows on from The Slave Trade and the British Empire: An Audit of Commemoration in Wales, first published in November 2020.
It also supports the Welsh Government’s Anti-Racist Wales Action Plan, which charges public bodies with responsibility for ‘setting the right historic narrative, promoting and delivering a balanced, authentic and decolonised account of the past’.
