Senedd Reform.
In May 2026, the Senedd will undergo a significant transformation, expanding from 60 to 96 members. This change will be accompanied by the introduction of a new proportional electoral system.
Historically, the Senedd has operated under a partially proportional system, with no single party achieving overall control since its inception in 1999.
While we anticipate different election outcomes compared to the past 25 years, these changes will primarily be driven by the current political climate rather than the new proportionality of the system.
