Grŵp 13: Rheoliadau (Gwelliant 11)
Thank you. The Legislation, Justice and Constitution Committee noted in its report that the inclusion of retained direct EU legislation in the Bill's definition of primary legislation could cause confusion, and it recommended I should address this as part of…

Grŵp 12: Seinweddau (Gwelliannau 53, 54, 55, 56, 10, 58)
It does seem we oscillate between reasonable Janet and reading Janet, who is less reasonable. I'm afraid the definition that you used in your amendment, Janet, does not match the standard definition in current international and British policy documents and…

Grŵp 11. Swyddfa Diogelu Ansawdd Aer (Gwelliant 52)
The environmental governance and biodiversity targets Bill is scheduled for introduction in this Senedd term. It's expected to formally establish a new environmental governance body for Wales, and we think that is the best vehicle for achieving this. We'd…

Grŵp 10. Cynlluniau codi tâl ar ddefnyddwyr cefnffyrdd (Gwelliannau 49, 79, 62, 61, 82, 83, 84)
Well, I must say, I think, hearing Janet Finch-Saunders's contribution, I'm very glad I took my blood pressure tablets this morning, Chair. I don't wish to get too distracted by them, but it's complete poppycock what she said, and it's a shame because we've…

There are a range of options that local authorities can use to work with households and I'd be happy to write to the Member or to the committee to set them out. The Warm Homes scheme is the most obvious, but I'll follow that up.

Well, you're not accurate in implying that this would affect people living in rural areas, unless that rural area would be declared a smoke control area by the local authority, which seems to me unlikely in the present circumstances. So, I think it's…

Just on that, I think Huw Irranca-Davies is absolutely right to point to internal air quality. I think I attended the cross-party group where one of the leading experts talked in quite alarming terms of how potent that is and the impact it has and that it has…

Grŵp 8: Rheoli ansawdd aer gan awdurdodau lleol: Adolygiadau a chynlluniau gweithredu (Gwelliannau 44, 76, 45, 46, 47)
Well, we already have guidance and we already have funding, and we have the flexibility, through the process we've set out, to amend that in consultation with local authorities, based on what we think will work best in practice.

Grŵp 8: Rheoli ansawdd aer gan awdurdodau lleol: Adolygiadau a chynlluniau gweithredu (Gwelliannau 44, 76, 45, 46, 47)
There is funding available through the local air quality management support fund, which invites bids annually and enables discussion between local authorities and the Welsh Government on what's appropriate.

The national levers to help local authorities—that's a very good question. Bear with me a second, I just need to refresh my memory. As I said at the beginning, actually, Janet, there's the local—. Let me find the page in my notes—apologies.

Secondly, the Bill introduces a requirement for Welsh Ministers to approve air quality action plans. In the explanatory memorandum, we set out that our intention behind this is for quality assurance, alongside ensuring Welsh Government considers whether there…

Grŵp 8: Rheoli ansawdd aer gan awdurdodau lleol: Adolygiadau a chynlluniau gweithredu (Gwelliannau 44, 76, 45, 46, 47)
Thank you. So, on amendment 44, proposed by Janet Finch-Saunders, we appreciate the intention behind this amendment, but we resist it for two reasons. Firstly, local authorities are funded to review local air quality through their core funding. Additional…

So, they've been heavily involved, and continue to be heavily involved, in both the shaping and the executing of the policies. The legal advice I've had is that making a non-statutory body a statutory consultee wouldn't be appropriate.

Thank you. Yes, so in terms of amendment 75, Delyth, we're already committed to publishing an update report on progress towards actions within the national air quality strategy, and we will update the explanatory memorandum to reflect this commitment. Janet…

Well, in the interest of trying to be brief, Chair, given the amount of amendments we still have to go through, I'll just say, in summary, that our amendment 5 gives effect to your own recommendation 18, which we were happy to work with. We can't support…

Grŵp 6: Segura llonydd (Gwelliannau 72, 50, 51, 80, 57, 81)
Well, thank you. Again, I think we support the spirit of what is trying to be achieved by some of these amendments. Let's begin with amendments 50 and 51, tabled by Janet Finch-Saunders. Amendment 50 would remove the provisions allowing for the settling of a…

Okay. Thank you, Janet. Does any Member object to the withdrawal of amendment 40? No. There we are. Okay, the amendment is therefore withdrawn.
