Memorandwm Cydsyniad Deddfwriaethol ar y Bil Rhentwyr (Diwygio): Sesiwn dystiolaeth
Okay, thank you. And just quickly, then, finally: the amendments making provision in the devolved areas in UK Parliament, Minister, did you sign off on those amendments?

Memorandwm Cydsyniad Deddfwriaethol ar y Bil Rhentwyr (Diwygio): Sesiwn dystiolaeth
Fab. And just looking back at those two dates—17 May 2023 and 14 November—what date where you formally invited to make provision for Wales in this Bill?

Memorandwm Cydsyniad Deddfwriaethol ar y Bil Rhentwyr (Diwygio): Sesiwn dystiolaeth
Okay. Thank you. And then, in terms of the Bill itself, it was introduced in the House of Commons on 17 May 2023, an England-only Bill until amendments were introduced at the Commons Committee Stage on 14 November. So, you state in the LCM that you were…

Morning. How does using UK Government-proposed legislation to introduce these changes contribute to the overall accessibility of law here in Wales?

Yes. Politics is a funny old game. Thank you, Minister.

Sesiwn Graffu Gyffredinol ar Waith y Gweinidog: Gweinidog yr Economi
Okay. Thank you. And just one final question, then, in terms of free ports and investment zones: the Welsh Government and the UK Government are working on the extension of their life, from five years to 10 years. I was just wondering if there's any progress…

Fab. Just coming back to the work that you will have undertaken with the two free ports in supporting them through the outline business case, which is something we touched on last time, how involved have you been, given the timescales and the opportunities…

Sesiwn Graffu Gyffredinol ar Waith y Gweinidog: Gweinidog yr Economi
Fab. So, in terms of the outline business cases that were being currently assessed, I believe, for both Anglesey and the Celtic free port, what information do you intend to publish alongside the decision, when you mentioned 'in post'? Are you giving a clear…

Sorry, when you're talking about the percentages, what do they refer to? Sorry. How many are taking up—?

Forgive me, Chair. On the policy around on-farm slaughter, why are you delegating that decision to TAG when you are able to make that decision to change it now, given that there are other policies available on the islands of the United Kingdom?

I think it's well documented from our side of the Chamber that we perceive targeted removal of infected wildlife not as a silver bullet, but part of a suite of measures—a holistic approach of removing and eradicating bovine TB. My question would be, though…

Yes, of course, and I know Dr Richard Irvine has mentioned that it's known to you and your department. But given that it's so stark, surely that must open up a few doors of thinking, actually, is there another opportunity for us to look at this again, and if…

Yes, I just think the evidence in it is quite stark. The herd incidence rate of TB reduced by 56 per cent. We would be falling over ourselves if we were able to achieve those targets here in Wales, so I'm just wondering, Minister, given where your manifesto…

Do you know where the idea originated for school term reform? I know it's not your portfolio, and forgive me—it's not your department.
