Some time ago we received a petition to the petitions committee at the National Assembly for Wales calling for a Welsh Honours system. A web forum discussion was initiated online by the committee, but for many reasons it did not manage to spark debate- whether that was do to with how it was advertised, the timeline of the discussion, or indeed the topic etc we need to assess further.
Nonetheless, the debate has been reignited by the committee in the form of a blog, and you can tell us your views here or here.
Feel free to advertise it on web forums, social networking sites until the discussion ends on the 14th of February. We will then discuss any suggestions at a future committee meeting, with a view to making recommendations for the way forward to the Assembly Commission and to the Welsh Government.
This is democracy in action, so I urge you to take part!
A Welsh honours system is long, long overdue.
