The Agricultural Advisory Panel for Wales is the body that provides independent advice to Welsh Ministers on fair minimum rates of pay and other terms and conditions of employment for agricultural, horticultural and forestry workers in Wales. It also promotes careers in agriculture, supports skills and career progression in the sector and provides additional advice to Ministers as required. Annually, the Panel review the Agricultural Minimum Wage (AMW) policy, propose any changes necessary and consult on their proposals before submitting a draft Agricultural Wages (Wales) Order ("the order") to Welsh Ministers for consideration. Once passed by the Senedd, the Order has legal authority in Wales. The Panel draw on their expertise and consideration of the economic conditions in the industry at the time, as well as all legal requirements (such as the National Minimum Wage) and Welsh Government policy priorities (such as fair work). This ensures agricultural workers receive fair, regularly reviewed, wages and allowances, contributing to the Welsh Government's Tackling Poverty agenda by safeguarding household incomes, especially within rural communities. The work of the Panel also contributes to the Wellbeing of Future Generations Act 2015, as well as the Welsh Government's Sustainable Land Management objectives. The Panel is supported by a mandatory sub-committee that advises on matters related to skills development, training opportunities and career progression. The Panel may establish other sub-committees on specific issues as required. The Welsh Government Sponsorship Division provides the secretariat function for the Panel, with an external law firm advising the Panel on any legal issues, including drafting Orders.
