The Senedd (Welsh Parliament) represents all the people of Wales.
There are currently 60 elected Members of the Senedd (MSs).
Conwy has two MSs, one for the Aberconwy constituency and one for the Clwyd West constituency, alongside four regional MSs representing the whole North Wales area.
The MSs split their time between work at the Senedd in Cardiff and local work in the area they represent.
The next Senedd election will take place on Thursday 7 May 2026.
At the next election, there will be changes to the number of Senedd members, the constituencies, and how the Senedd members are elected.
Here's what you need to know:
- 96 Members: From the election in May 2026, the Senedd will have 96 Members instead of 60.
- New voting system: Everyone 16+ will now have one vote, choosing a political party or independent candidate.
- New constituencies: Wales will have 16 constituencies. Each constituency will elect six Members.
- New rules: Anyone standing for election must live in Wales.
