​The National Assembly’s Children, Young People and Education Committee [Opens in new browser] has published a pre-legislative report on the Welsh Government’s forthcoming Bill to establish Qualification Wales.

The Committee’s principle recommendation is that the Bill should be limited to establishing Qualifications Wales as a regulating body only. Future changes to its remit, including its role as an awarding body, should be brought forward in a subsequent Bill following full consideration of matters identified in relevant reviews, and once there is sufficient clarity on the awarding process.

There are a further 14 recommendations contained in the report.
