Brexit
Since the referendum, Powys County Council, along with all other local authorities in Wales, has been planning for different Brexit scenarios including a no-deal situation.
It has been working with the Welsh Government, the Welsh Local Government Association (WLGA) and public sector partners to coordinate preparations, receiving advice and communications from a variety of sources on the preparations that Powys County Council should be putting in place.
WLGA, has compiled an online Brexit advice hub which includes a section dedicated to No Deal advice, information and resources. The resource includes a 'Preparedness Toolkit', to help councils put plans in place on behalf of their communities and businesses which the council has used as part of its preparations.
In January 2019 the Welsh Government has also launched an online 'one-stop shop' for the public on Brexit: 'Preparing Wales' website.
