WELSH voters will be grouped in new, larger constituencies when they choose their next Senedd in two years’ time.

Sixteen mega-constituencies will elect six members each under a proportional representation system, as revealed under proposals issued on Tuesday.

At present, there are 60 Senedd members, chosen through a mixture of single-seat constituencies and regional lists.
