Welsh Conservatives Debate: Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board
Can I just start by saying that I support Ken Skates's proposals that he made earlier? I thought they were really good. I welcome the interventions that Welsh Government are making: training new nurses, providing bursaries, building a new medical school in…

Questions to the Counsel General and Minister for the Constitution
Okay. Thank you for the answer, Counsel General. Illegal fishing is not only damaging to the Welsh economy, but is also costly for our coastal environments. Unregulated fishing techniques impact on biodiversity and marine habitats, leading to overfishing…

Thank you. Do you have good enough data to depict sporting demand in disadvantaged communities, and do you think that more qualitative data is needed, as opposed to just quantitative data? Do you think that Sport Wales use the data effectively regarding…

I was told that disability basketball was growing. My son likes basketball, and he tells me it's the fastest growing sport. And then, I see it growing across north Wales, and we have doorstep play through MUGAs. But then, the survey is not capturing it; it's…

Is there not a play survey as well that gathers data? There used to be, I think, through local authorities. I don't know if that still takes place, that data gathering. Can you tell me, the Sport Wales survey through schools—does that go to high schools or…

It's okay. It was just when you said about the importance of doorstep provision. So, I guess, just to encourage people into sports, you believe that doorstep play provision is really important, so that people can just access it themselves without parents…

Questions to the Minister for Rural Affairs and North Wales
