Scrutiny committee report claims Welsh government lost £155m

A SENEDD scrutiny committee has today charged the Welsh government with losing £155 million through financial mismanagement.
The public accounts and public administration committee claimed in its report published today that significant funds for essential public services had been lost.
The figure of £155 million is the difference between the balance of the Wales reserve on 1 April 2021 — £505.5m and the limit of only holding £350m in the reserves.
