At the end of every Senedd, committees look back on the work they’ve done over the previous five years, and think about the advice they want to leave for the next committee.

They are a useful source of information for new committees, the Members who serve on them and for anyone who takes an interest in their work. They can help all of us to understand what has happened in the past, and the forces that will influence what happens next.

The Committee was established on 23 June 2021 to carry out the functions of the responsible committee set out in Standing Order 22.

The Members of the Standards of Conduct committee are:

• Hannah Blythyn MS (Chair) - elected on 17 September 2024
• Mick Antoniw MS - elected on 24 September 2024
• Tom Giffard MS – elected on 30 April 2025
• Peredur Owen Griffiths MS – elected on 30 March 2022

Where a Member is unable to act on a matter relating to a report from the Commissioner, an alternate Member can act (as set out in Standing Order 22.5). The alternate Members of the committee are:
