(e)
Tabled on 21/06/2018
This Assembly:
1) Regrets the decision to remove political columns from Trinity Mirror titles;
2) Notes that this change was made without any notice or consultation;
3) Believes that this will take away an important channel by which local representatives can keep in touch with their constituents; and
4) Fears that this decision will weaken understanding of politics, and of devolved politics and the work of the National Assembly for Wales, in particular.
