Just briefly on this, what about suspended sentences?

Y wybodaeth ddiweddaraf am ddeisebau blaenorol
Yes. I met with the petitioners, Chair, and it's an astonishing feat, really, for them to get nearly 8,500 signatures on paper, which was a chunk when it came in. Jack Sargeant, Joel James and I met them, and it was good to hear from them. They were…

Y wybodaeth ddiweddaraf am ddeisebau blaenorol
I'm not sure. But I think if it goes on too long, maybe that we review this towards the end of the summer term and, if it's not coming fairly soon, rather than leave this debate hanging, that we ask for a debate anyway, and then we can debate it on the floor…

That we put a marker down to say that we want a debate, but we'll wait for the feasibility study and, once we've had that, that we ask Business Committee for a debate.

Grêt. Wel, roedd hi'n grêt gweld Elfed yn Eisteddfod yr Urdd, fo a'r efeilliaid, so roedd hi'n dda eu gweld nhw yn fanna, ac roeddwn i'n siarad am y ddeiseb yma, gan ddiolch yn fawr iddo fo am y gwaith y mae o wedi'i wneud. Wrth gwrs, roedd o wedi cerdded o…

So, close the petition down and for each one of us to monitor in our own capacities, then, to make sure that things continue in that vein.

It's good to get this petition discussed at this meeting. We've had some correspondence backwards and forwards, and the Welsh Government and the National Centre for Learning Welsh have taken action and engaged with Duolingo. The subject has been raised on…

Thank you, Chair. I'd like to thank the petitioner for this petition. The Counsel General has responded and has stated very clearly that it would not be appropriate for the Senedd Cymru (Members and Elections) Bill to include provisions for each Member's…

I would agree with Peter that we should seek clarity from the Cabinet Secretary, and it would be a good idea to ask the WLGA as well, to write to the WLGA, to get their views.

Dadl Plaid Cymru: Cyllid HS2
Hanes HS2 yng Nghymru yw un o’r anghyfiawnderau ariannol mwyaf, o blith nifer, a welsom ers amser maith gan San Steffan. Ni fydd yr un filltir o drac yn dod yn agos at Gymru, heb sôn am fynd drwyddi, ac eto, mae trethdalwyr yn y wlad hon yn gorfod talu…

Just on that point—and it’s something that maybe we should have covered off earlier on—on that recall petition, should there be two questions, or two answers, effectively? So, one would say, 'I support this recall of removing this Member from the Senedd', or…

And based on what you said earlier around the cost element and quickness and being able to do this fairly quickly if needed, and I'm assuming that you'll correct me if I'm wrong, once you hit the 10 per cent, you would then close the petition rather than…

And with the process, if we were to adopt something similar to Westminster, then, where you leave that petition open for six weeks or a set amount of time, that would probably help to encourage people, if they wanted to express their view, that they'd be able…

Thank you for that. So, if we move on and assume that we have triggered a petition, just looking at the mechanics of it, in Westminster, when it's triggered, then that 10 per cent of the electorate in that constituency, or paired constituencies in our case…

Hello, commissioner. Thanks for coming in this morning. Just to start off with, in your opinion, is a recall petition the best way of handing this sort of situation, or would there be another mechanism that potentially could be used?
