National contemporary art gallery: evidence session 1 - delivery partners
Yes. There's a question that's not been covered, really. How will this dispersed model link with other policy areas, such as education and health? So, we have schoolchildren visit certain areas—they love to come to St Fagans, with the wonderful areas.

Okay, thank you. And, on weaknesses—we've talked about the strengths of this—any perceived weaknesses, going forward?

So, will there be branding like signage and a logo to show that it's part of a national gallery as it goes on tour?

I heard in a previous evidence session—I think it was, actually, when we went to Ireland—that we need to make art relevant to people.

Thank you. Some of it's been covered already, but, just on the strengths and weakness of this dispersed model, and, also, do you think that our residents will understand that there is actually a national gallery as well, with it being dispersed? Alun was…

Welsh Conservatives Debate: National Health Service
Thank you. It has been reduced to the Welsh Government, and the amount Welsh Government can borrow has been restricted by the UK Government. There is much to celebrate, and we need to celebrate what is great about our health service. Many people receive…

The Animal By-Products, Pet Passport and Animal Health (Fees) (Wales) (Amendment) Regulations 2023
Following the Trade and Animal Welfare Coalition event that I sponsored last week in the Senedd, I'm really concerned about the welfare of animals going through border posts—unaccounted for, often hidden. It would be good to see more checks, including…

In this rural communities debate, I'd like to say that north Wales is largely rural and the economy is dominated by sectors such as agriculture, forestry and tourism. There are no large conurbations, which makes it an area of small and medium-sized…
