Apparently, it was announced at todays WRU AGM that the WRU are going to be taking a stake in all 4 regions. Have to see the finer details, but what could possibly go wrong with that!
Edit to add that its apparently not a done deal for the WRU'ing to take a 20% share in the teams. If thats the case, why state that to the press?
I am not sure 20% has been on the table for some time. I think it is now a golden share that gives them input into certain decisions to assist the national team. If operated fairly and tied down properly in legal terms it is not a crazy idea in principle. The issue is going to be how to effectively tie it down legally to prevent future abuse.
