Statement by the Deputy Minister for Transport: Climate Adaptation and Resilience in Wales's Transport Network
Deputy Minister, one of my staff recently left Carmarthen at 6.20 in the morning and did not arrive here in Cardiff bay until 11 o'clock. Getting to the bay or the Senedd by train or bus takes longer than flying to Malta. That said, when it comes to…

Questions to the Cabinet Minister for Rural Resilience and Sustainability
Last week, I asked the First Minister about the fact that NRW and other agencies do not know the full mix of chemicals discharged legally into the rivers of Carmarthenshire. A report has said that NRW are flying blind. As I wasn't quite sure of the response…

Thank you, Chair.

And it just becomes a cost of doing business then, doesn't it?

And the second question is on the £44 million fine. You say it's not paid by customers, but the customers finance the company, don't they? So, how is the £40 million fine actually not paid for by the customers when the customers provide all the finance?

And it just becomes another layer of management.

Ofwat’s role in the Welsh context - scene setting session
Thanks for coming down. Is Ofwat in danger—it might be a good thing or a bad thing—of actually running the management of Dŵr Cymru Welsh Water, as a sort of mission creep, if you like? I've got another question as well.

Diolch, First Minister. People whose livelihoods depend on Carmarthenshire's rivers, including members of Carmarthen Coracle and Netsmen's Association, tell us they have never seen such a poor season, with the return of only six sewin from May to June this…

Questions to the Cabinet Minister for Finance
People across Carmarthenshire are no longer confused by the language around net zero, they are frustrated by it, because when Ministers talk about strategic investment and a just transition, many hear spin. What they actually see are higher bills, disruption…

Statement by the Cabinet Minister for Rural Resilience and Sustainability: Priorities for Rural Resilience and Sustainability
Minister, what I hear across Carmarthenshire is simple: people do not feel more resilient—they feel under pressure. Farmers are being asked to do more, comply with more, and absorb more cost—from TB to the SFS to the rise in diesel costs and fertiliser costs…

Questions to the First Minister
Across Carmarthenshire, from Pumsaint to Bynea, from Ferryside to the Tywi valley, people are angry, First Minister. They see their countryside being industrialised with massive wind turbines, huge solar sites, substations, and miles and miles of pylons…
