🏴 More Welsh Government interventions July 4 🏴
Yesterday the Welsh Government announced further measures that will have a huge impact on the self-catering sector in Wales. This is without even working through how the 182-days will work in practice and what measures they need to agree to to limit harm to businesses.
In a single announcement the Welsh Government have announced the following:
• Changes to planning regulations by the end of the summer. These will introduce three new planning use classes – a primary home, a second home and short-term holiday accommodation. Local planning authorities, where they have evidence, will be able to make amendments to the planning system to require planning permission for change of use from one class to another. We will also introduce changes to national planning policy to give local authorities the ability to control the number of second homes and holiday lets in any community.
• Plans to introduce a statutory licensing scheme for all visitor accommodation, including short-term holiday lets, making it a requirement to obtain a license. This will help raise standards across the tourism industry.
• Following a consultation about varying land transaction tax locally in areas with large numbers of second homes, work will start today (Monday 4 July) with local authorities to develop a national framework so they can request increased land transaction tax rates for second homes and holiday lets to be applied in their local area.
This announcement leaves hundreds of questions unanswered, its not a Consultation, although we know how they play out, it's an announcement of intent. The timescales are off the scale, by the end of the summer (technically late September) to be able to change planning permissions is terrifying.
Businesses cannot plan with all this uncertainty. Investment plans are being put on ice all across Wales. This is just too many measures against a single sector and will do untold damage.
We are trying to find out more detail around all of this, but at the moment, we just have the press release below.
New planning laws, a statutory licensing scheme and proposals to change land transaction tax will be included in a package of measures to address second homes in Wales.
Oh dear! No shame! Perhaps we could close for 2 months of the year to "not qualify" for these dangerous and damaging laws they're bulldozing through!?!

The First Minister's property is not classified as a second home so he will not have to pay a council tax premium
Once again we have to ask for you help! Please share to involve as many people as possible.
Please sign this petition to show the Welsh Govt. just how much damage they will cause as they seem hell-bent on bulldozing this law through the Senedd without even listening to serious concerns from the sector.
Let's see if we can get over 10k signatures as it will then have to be discussed in the Senedd.
The Trade Associations that represent genuine self-catering businesses in Wales (Wales Tourism Alliance, UK Hospitality Cymru and PASC UK Wales Branch) will meet Welsh Government with a view to agreeing mitigation measures to reduce the harm that the introduction of the 182-day occupancy rule will cause real Welsh-owned self-catering businesses. These are not second homes or casual lets. Over 30% of these businesses have said that they will have to close or sell without these exemptions.

The plan would see a power station visitor centre knocked down to create parking spaces.
A bit late - report from early May - but once again, the Welsh Govt. seems to be bulldozing through their policies and casually offering such "research" as lip service.
The tax proposal for overnight visitors to Wales has been savaged by the industry
Brilliant, but such a shame the video did not show the predictable BS that probably came out of the minister's mouth in an attempt to justify their belligerence towards the sector.
