Cross-Party Groups may be set up by Members of the Senedd in respect of any subject area relevant to the Senedd.
A group must include Members from three political party groups represented within the Senedd. Cross-Party Groups are not formal Senedd groupings and are not, therefore, bound by any of the Senedd's Standing Orders. They have no formal role in policy development.
