Excellent. There we are. Well, I think we have actually covered all bases, haven't we, unless there's anything else that Members wish to raise? No. There we are. Okay, well, can I thank you both for your attendance and for the evidence that you've given us…

Thank you. What about the sanctions, then, that are in the Bill for non-compliance? Are they proportionate? Do you have any views or concerns about those in particular?

Bil Drafft Diogelu'r Amgylchedd (Cynhyrchion Plastig Untro) (Cymru) - sesiwn dystiolaeth 2
Very briefly, because we have discussed this a little bit. But directly on that point, Judith or Craig.

Lovely. Thank you. We have just over 15 minutes left, so there are just a few more areas of questioning that we'd like to cover. Craig, you touched earlier on about one particular cross-border issue, potentially, in relation to anaerobic digestion. Is there…

That's fine. Thank you very much. We move on, then, to Joyce.

I'm aware that capacity was one of the areas that we were hoping to cover later on. I'm not sure, Huw, if there was anything you wanted to add at this point, or have we covered it sufficiently?
29 Medi 2022 , Climate Change, Environment, and Infrastructure Committee
Bil Drafft Diogelu'r Amgylchedd (Cynhyrchion Plastig Untro) (Cymru) - sesiwn dystiolaeth 2
Who wants to address that one first? Craig.
29 Medi 2022 , Climate Change, Environment, and Infrastructure Committee
Bil Drafft Diogelu'r Amgylchedd (Cynhyrchion Plastig Untro) (Cymru) - sesiwn dystiolaeth 2
Yes, and that echoes, certainly, points that have been made previously specifically on that, and I think it is a very valid issue to raise. Thank you so much. Okay, we'll move on to Janet, then.
29 Medi 2022 , Climate Change, Environment, and Infrastructure Committee
Bil Drafft Diogelu'r Amgylchedd (Cynhyrchion Plastig Untro) (Cymru) - sesiwn dystiolaeth 2
Yes. One little word has very far-reaching consequences in legislation. You're right; that's an excellent point, actually. It's one that we probably will raise directly later on with the Minister. Craig, you wanted to say something.
29 Medi 2022 , Climate Change, Environment, and Infrastructure Committee
Bil Drafft Diogelu'r Amgylchedd (Cynhyrchion Plastig Untro) (Cymru) - sesiwn dystiolaeth 2
Yes, Judith to start.

Thank you. There's a lot there, actually. I know some of those areas we will be coming back to in greater detail. So, just sticking with the proposed list, then, for a minute, no glaring omissions and no major red flags as you see it, albeit it's all part of…

Bil Drafft Diogelu'r Amgylchedd (Cynhyrchion Plastig Untro) (Cymru) - sesiwn dystiolaeth 2
No problem at all—yes. And when we do ask questions, you're not both obliged to answer all of our questions; it's always whoever is most relevant or most keen to answer.

Bil Drafft Diogelu'r Amgylchedd (Cynhyrchion Plastig Untro) (Cymru) - sesiwn dystiolaeth 1
Excellent. Okay. Those are points that we can raise directly with the Minister when she joins us later on this morning. Huw isn't sure whether he wants to come in on something. Go on then, Huw. Go on.

Bil Drafft Diogelu'r Amgylchedd (Cynhyrchion Plastig Untro) (Cymru) - sesiwn dystiolaeth 1
Yes. I was just wondering—. It is quite a big question, really, but the Government does have a clear policy intent in terms of why it's bringing this Bill forward, and, taken as a whole, do you believe that the Bill as proposed actually meets that and…
29 Medi 2022 , Climate Change, Environment, and Infrastructure Committee
Bil Drafft Diogelu'r Amgylchedd (Cynhyrchion Plastig Untro) (Cymru) - sesiwn dystiolaeth 1
Yes. Okay. So, I suppose, finally, the six-million-dollar question is that there's a clear policy intent here in terms of the Government. Do you believe that the Bill actually delivers on that policy intent?

Bil Drafft Diogelu'r Amgylchedd (Cynhyrchion Plastig Untro) (Cymru) - sesiwn dystiolaeth 1
Okay. So, we know obviously this is a very rapidly developing area of technology, isn't it? There are always new innovations and new products coming online. I'm just wondering whether there's a risk that, in compensating for a ban, that alternative products…
