List of acts of the National Assembly for Wales and acts of Senedd Cymru from 2020

This is a list of acts of the National Assembly for Wales and acts of Senedd Cymru passed in 2020. Acts of Senedd Cymru are enacted by Senedd Cymru (the Welsh Parliament; or simply the Senedd), which has legislative authority over devolved matters in relation to Wales under the authority of the Government of Wales Act 2006.[1] Before 6 May 2020, the Senedd was known as the National Assembly for Wales,[2] and acts passed before that date are accordingly known as acts of the National Assembly for Wales.

All legislation passed by the Senedd is bilingual, with the English and Welsh texts being equally authoritative.[3][4] Acts are cited by calendar year, in the same fashion as acts of Parliament of the United Kingdom. Each act passed in a respective year is numbered consecutively with Arabic numerals, following the prefix "anaw" or "asc" respectively (or, in Welsh, "dccc" or "dsc").[5]

3 acts of the National Assembly for Wales and 2 acts of Senedd Cymru were passed in 2020.
