Topic briefs are short briefings on a variety of subjects likely to be of interest to Assembly Members. Each brief provides a short introduction to the subject as well as links to key documents and the contact details of the relevant researcher.
Users requiring a file in an alternative format to that which is currently available on this website should contact us. We will do our best to accommodate all requests.
Note: Topic briefs are compiled for the benefit of Assembly Members and their support staff. Authors are available to discuss the contents of these briefs with Members and their staff but cannot advise members of the general public. Any comments on topic briefs should be sent to the Members’ Research Service, National Assembly for Wales, Cardiff CF99 1NA or via email at: Members'ResearchServiceResources@wales.gsi.gov.uk

You can register on the Assembly web-site to receive email alerts when our pages have been updated and new publications added.
Please note, these publications have been prepared by the Members' Research Service for the purpose of providing information to Assembly Members. They do not constitute an expression of opinion by the National Assembly for Wales or any of its constituent parts or connected bodies.
In accordance with the Assembly Parliamentary Services Bilingual Services Statement, documents targeted at Assembly Members, which are not intended for external publication, are generally produced in English only. Nonetheless, we endeavour to make some MRS papers available in Welsh also after taking account of their subject matter, length and life span.
