Oral Statement: Statutory licensing scheme for all visitor accommodation in Wales (by Vaughan Gething MS, Minister for the Economy, 15 November)
The visitor economy is changing rapidly, and the role of visitor accommodation presents major challenges for communities across the world. For example, the growth of online booking platforms has brought many benefits, such as new routes to market and increased consumer choice. However, we are aware of the concerns around compliance with existing requirements and the impact of short-term lets on housing stock and our communities.
Our plans to develop a statutory licensing scheme for all visitor accommodation will be focused on levelling the playing field as part of a long-term response to the major challenges we face.
