Time To Deliver. The Third Term and Beyond: Policy Options for Wales

What will be contained in the in-tray of the new Assembly Government following the May 2007 election? What longer-term, horizon issues should be borne in mind when framing policies for the third term? These are questions that have been addressed by eight expert groups brought together by the IWA over 2006. Their conclusions were debated at this conference, held at the Thistle Hotel, Cardiff, on Monday 27 November 2006. Some of the conference presentations are available for download below.
