Proposal for charge to stay overnight in commercially let accommodation will be put to Senedd
The Welsh government is to press ahead with plans for a visitor levy on tourists who stay in the country overnight.
Legislation allowing local authorities to introduce a levy will be put to the Senedd, the Welsh parliament, within this government’s term. Some tourism organisations have criticised the plan, calling it a misguided “bed tax” that risks discouraging people from visiting.
