Will the Minister take an intervention?

Welsh Conservatives Debate: Education
I’m really grateful for that, Buffy. You’ve just become chairman of the education committee. One of the biggest problems in the hangover from the COVID pandemic is absenteeism in schools. In some deprived communities, as much as 40 per cent of children aren’t…

Questions to the First Minister
This is having a real corrosive effect on the Government, as the silence of your own benches is showing here before everyone today. There cannot be any question that that reasonable person that you and I are referring to would draw the conclusion that the…

Questions to the First Minister
Obviously, that's an internal investigation, First Minister. I think most people objectively looking at this would agree with the economy Minister's assertion on The Politics Show that he wouldn't have taken a donation from a company that has numerous…

Questions to the First Minister
Thank you, Presiding Officer. First Minister, why is the economy Minister's judgment on accepting political donations more principled than yours?

Welsh Conservatives Debate: Transport
I welcome the Conservative back to the Government, and that's very pleasing to see. But could I just check with the Minister, as he talks about this conversation that he and the Government are having around 20 mph, what is the backstop for that conversation…

Statement by the First Minister: Delivering Wales's priorities
First Minister, I wish you and your Government well in your endeavours, because you have a mandate and the people of Wales look to the Government to obviously deliver on that mandate, and, if it works, it improves people’s lives the length and breadth of…

Questions to the First Minister
In Welsh political terms, that is a huge donation that you received during your leadership campaign. You weren't successful in securing more than just a third of the Labour group here in the bay to back your leadership bid, but you were successful in making…

Questions to the First Minister
I'm grateful to you for confirming that you received a donation of exactly £200,000. Was all that money spent during the campaign, or was money handed over to the Labour Party at the end of the campaign so that, obviously, that money can be used within the…

Questions to the First Minister
Thank you, Presiding Officer, and can I also congratulate you, First Minister, on assuming the role of First Minister here in Wales? It's the first time you and I have been across the Chamber in our respective roles. The first time I met you wasn't quite as…

Statement by the First Minister: Resignation Statement
First Minister, you encapsulated there why you are so successful at elections, in fairness. You encapsulated your ability to empathise with communities the length and breadth of Wales, and one of the iconic tragedies that has afflicted this country in the…

Questions to the First Minister
Finally, First Minister, this will be the last time that I rise to ask my third question of you as First Minister. We've had some interesting exchanges, some colourful exchanges and some passionate exchanges, but those exchanges, hopefully from both sides…

Questions to the First Minister
Thank you for that very full answer, First Minister. I look forward to, hopefully, a statement coming from the education Minister about these proposals that you alluded to there and the money behind those proposals, because I'm sure that many will want to…

Questions to the First Minister
Thank you, Deputy Presiding Officer. It's a pleasure to address you, First Minister, in this, your last First Minister's questions as First Minister. For our viewers' benefit, who are watching us at home, we will have an opportunity in a later statement this…

Welsh Conservatives Debate: UK Government budget
The latest figures from the G7 show that the UK economy is the fastest growing economy over the period. The only economies in the G7 to have beaten it are America and Canada.

Questions to the First Minister
We were constantly told that the Welsh Government was led by the science. As opposition Members, we are being led by the evidence when it comes to trying to understand how Welsh Government, how special advisers, how the civil servants and other decision…

Questions to the First Minister
No-one's asking you to pre-empt the questions, when the line of questioning is put to you, First Minister, and the line of questioning that the journalist put was very broad; it was about the relationship that you as a Welsh Government had with the UK…

Questions to the First Minister
Thank you, Presiding Officer. First Minister, last week, I challenged you on various comments and evidence that had been made to the COVID inquiry. You wouldn't answer those questions, and I accept the point that you made, that you had due respect and regard…

Questions to the First Minister
The First Minister stands down in two weeks' time. I have tried to seek answers on information that is in the public domain. I can't get that here in the Welsh Parliament. That is a damning indictment of Welsh democracy, I would say. I'll ask you another…

Questions to the First Minister
Can I seek your support, Presiding Officer? Surely Parliament deserves greater respect than that.
