The Welsh Rugby Union (WRU) has delayed revealing details of how they plan to reduce a professional side.
In April, the WRU confirmed that proposals to go down to three men's professional teams would not happen until 2028 after the deal with Ospreys owners Y11 Sport & Media to buy Cardiff from Welsh rugby's governing body fell through.
The WRU said it was pushing on with controversial plans to cut from four to three and that they would provide details of how it would be achieved by the end of June, with Scarlets, Ospreys, Dragons and WRU-owned Cardiff waiting for the proposals.
The governing body now says that will be done in the "coming weeks" as they focus on appointing a new chair to replace the outgoing Richard Collier-Keywood.
They say this recruitment process will be completed over the summer and the new chair will be in post before the next WRU annual general meeting (AGM) in November.
