Wales’ first ever public discussion on what Brexit means for the people of Wales will be held in Ebbw Vale .

The talk, organised by The Welsh Affairs Committee, will be held at the Ebbw Vale Institute on Monday, November 14.

Topics up for discussion include how Brexit will affect jobs, funding for the arts, and the Welsh language.

The Welsh Affairs Committee said the talk will enable them “to hear directly from the people of Wales about what they believe should be the Government’s priorities during Brexit negotiations”.

The talk will be attended by “MPs from all parties” who will take part in workshops and discussions.

The event is being held as part of UK Parliament Week – which is seven days of activities and events designed to encourage the public to engage with “Parliament and democracy”.

On announcing the event, committee chairman David TC Davies said: “As the UK starts the process of exiting the European Union, it is essential to understand the unique impact on Wales.

“As we embark on this inquiry, we believe it is important to speak directly to the people of Wales to get to the heart of their reasons for voting and understand how we should prioritise our focus as we scrutinise the negotiations.

“UK Parliament Week aims to raise awareness of Parliament and encourage people to engage with the UK’s democratic system and its institutions.

“We welcome anyone who wishes to have their say to come and join us.

“Your views will help us guide the future direction of our inquiry.”

The event, Wales post-Brexit: Have your say, will be held from 10.45am to 1pm on November 14 at EVI – Ebbw Vale Institute on Church Street.
