Has Wales actually performed better than other nations so far in our Covid response? Polling suggests that people in Wales think the Welsh Government has done a better job than the UK government in keeping us safe during the pandemic.
Statistics show that after the first wave, excess deaths in England were 46% higher than last year, and in Wales only 26% higher, but should we have set a far higher bar for our response than just ‘being better than England’? Or have we done as well as what could be expected under the circumstances?
In this session we explore:
- Why aren’t we talking more about what better-performing countries have done, and why we haven’t copied them?
- Could the Welsh Government have done more to clarify public health messaging?
- What is the Welsh Government not doing right now that could be helping control rising cases?
- Could Wales and the UK have had a better outcome from the pandemic?
- What can Welsh policy makers do to learn the lessons of Covid-19?
Agenda
- Welcome & introduction – Auriol Miller, Director, IWA (Chair)
- Panel session (approximately 30 minutes)
- Q&A session with audience (approximately 15 minutes)
Panellists:
- Patience Bentu, Community Engagement Officer, Race Council Cymru
- Eifion Evans, Chief Executive, Ceredigion County Council
- Dr Richard Stanton, Reader in Virology, Cardiff University
- Dr Eilir Hughes, GP and Freshair.wales campaigner
This is an hour long panel discussion on Zoom chaired by the IWA Director, Auriol Miller, and attendees will be able to engage in debate and ask questions on the live chat.
The IWA’s #RethinkingWales series (supported by the Carnegie UK Trust) explores how various sectors need to respond to this crisis and how we need to start thinking differently.

Mairi is a Professor of Practice and Director of the Fraser of Allander Institute, at the University of Strathclyde in Scotland. In this event, she and Auriol Miller discussed Scottish Government's policy on social security. Scotland has a significantly larger package of powers devolved in this area compared to Wales. The Scottish Child Payment, a new devolved benefit, is particularly pertinent in this discussion, displaying different ways of managing welfare spend. This session was an enlightening discussion of the complexities of funding devolved policy, and of the lessons Wales can learn from Scotland in this area.
