From the perspective of Wales and, specifically, Welsh speaker numbers, EWC discontinuation poses a real issue – in particular, over the quality of alternative data. The decision about whether there will be another EWC will be made by the UK Government. A decision about a census in Wales should be made in Wales: i.e. by the Welsh Government subject to Senedd consent. It should be put beyond doubt that the CA is devolved to Wales, as it is to Scotland. It is not clear why the decision to hold a census for Wales is made by the UK Government because the reserved powers model now applies to Wales.

Why there should be a Wales-only census nation.cymru/opinion/why-...

Argument from Dr Huw Evans that, if the UK Government discontinues the decennial Census for England and Wales, the Welsh Government should be able to mandate a Census for Wales alone.
