The Senedd

The Senned,known as the national assembly building, houses the debating chamber and three committee rooms for the National Assembly for Wales. According to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Senedd, the Senned building was opened on 1 March 2006 by Queen Elisabeth II.
According to the Cambridge Advanced Learner's Dictionary, devolution is the moving of power or responsibility from a main organization to a lower level, or from a central government to a regional government. In other words, devolution is a transfer of power from a central to a subordinate level; for example nowadays in our societies, if somebody usually has the power to do something , but after many times, they give that power to another person that he use to manage, now we will talk about devolution. The Senedd has his reception area situated on the first floor. In the Senedd there is also a Plenary meetings which takes place in the Siambr (the Assembly's debating chamber ) on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. When peoples usually visit the Senedd,in public gallery there are headphones that can be use for people who does not understand the language(welsh,english) while visiting, so that they could have it translated through their headphones. All rooms in the Senedd have a least one glass wall .In the committee room, the glass walls is helpful for Welsh people so that the they can come and listen to their representatives make decisions on policies. And they can also see what going on inside, so that it could reflect the transparent democracy which could help people didn't complain about their right to be informed of what happening in the room.

  1. Good.

    A better way to explain devolution would be to say that the transfer of some law-making powers from central government in Westminster to the Welsh National Assembly is an example of this!

    Check through for spelling mistakes eg. 'through', 'helpful', 'complain'.
