Welsh Government and Labour Strike Budget Deal with £60m for ALN
The Plaid Cymru-led Welsh government has reached a breakthrough mini-budget agreement with the opposition Labour Party, securing an additional £60m for children with additional learning needs. This deal follows a previous failure to pass spending plans over the summer, after Labour had initially rejected lower offers and demanded a significantly higher funding injection. The supplementary budget is scheduled for debate in the Senedd on November 3, with reactions varying across political parties and headteacher unions.
