Labour has administratively suspended its Islwyn Senedd member Rhianon Passmore from the party pending investigations into allegations regarding her actions.
In a statement, Labour said “all complaints are investigated in accordance with the Party’s complaints procedures.”
The decision comes following an allegation on the Guido Fawkes website that Ms Passmore was seen driving a car with two different number plates.
The BBC has approached Ms Passmore for comment.
Guido Fawkes reported Ms Passmore was “spotted driving out of the Welsh Parliament’s car park with her number plate hanging off, revealing a different one underneath.”
A Labour spokesman said: “The Labour party takes the conduct of our elected representatives extremely seriously and all complaints are investigated in accordance with the party’s complaints procedure.”
Ms Passmore has represented Islwyn in Cardiff Bay since 2016.
Her suspension leaves the Labour party in the Senedd with only 29 of the 60 seats.
