Gynaecological cancers: evidence session with the Minister for Health and Social Services
Thank you, Chair, and good morning, everybody. I just want to try and establish why health boards are performing so badly against the single cancer pathway for gynaecological cancers. Is it the complexities around gynaecological cancers themselves, or is it…

Welsh Conservatives Debate: The health budget
Thank you, Minister. I just wanted to raise that, obviously, we're comparing a lot of systems here between Wales and England, but would you say it was your priority to work with the UK Government to factor in cross-border health provisions, when you look at…

Welsh Conservatives Debate: The health budget
The Member of the Senedd? For 26 years, Labour. The MP for the Vale of Clwyd, for the best part of 20 years, Labour. The Government here in Cardiff, where you call for more devolution, Labour. That's the reality of the situation in Rhyl, and that's the reason…

Welsh Conservatives Debate: The health budget
You want to stick 36 more politicians in this place, which would cost a lot more than north Denbighshire community hospital ever would. So when Ministers respond to me saying that this can't be delivered and there's no money for it, and blame the Tories down…

Welsh Conservatives Debate: The health budget
I'm here as a Member of the Senedd trying to convince the Welsh Government to invest more in health services in my constituency, as I'll point to later in my contribution. But it's okay to blow millions of pounds on 36 more politicians in Cardiff Bay and…

Welsh Conservatives Debate: The health budget
I'm pleased to take part in this debate this afternoon. It's all very rich, isn't it, for the Welsh Government and Plaid to point their finger down the M4 and blame the Conservatives in Westminster for all of their shortcomings and failings, but don't be…

Questions to the Minister for Health and Social Services
Thank you again, Minister, and I do appreciate the Welsh Government's ambition in dealing with this situation. But I think the key thing to achieve is for that to permeate onto the front line, so it's not just an ambition that's spoken about, obviously, in…

Questions to the Minister for Health and Social Services
Thank you for that response, Minister, and I appreciate it's a difficult situation to talk about, but one that shouldn't be ignored in ensuring the safety of people in the future in Wales, and I appreciate the response to my written question over the summer…

Questions to the Minister for Health and Social Services
Diolch, Llywydd, and good afternoon, Ministers. Most people in Wales will be acutely aware of the horrific serial killer who took the lives of infants just over the border from north-east Wales in the Countess of Chester. Lucy Letby, from a position of…

Welsh Conservatives Debate: The Restricted Roads (20 mph Speed Limit) (Wales) Order 2022
[Inaudible.] In the Deputy Minister's response to the debate, you mentioned the word 'shrill', which is a very old, derogatory term towards women. So, could you change that remark for the Senedd record, please?

Welsh Conservatives Debate: The Restricted Roads (20 mph Speed Limit) (Wales) Order 2022
—ample opportunity to discuss this in a rounded way. Well, I'm afraid life isn't like that and what people need to see is due diligence being practised by Government in a way that factors in local variation and differences in demographics and cultures. I know…

Well, the day's nearly upon us, isn't it, 17 September 2023, and, as I mentioned yesterday, it's my birthday on Sunday as well. So, as I mentioned yesterday, the best day of the year has now become that day that 30 mph zones end in Wales, the day when the…

Welsh Conservatives Debate: The Restricted Roads (20 mph Speed Limit) (Wales) Order 2022
Just on the 'blanket' aspect that you're mentioning, would you accept that that would be the case in certain areas, in certain local authorities? For example, in the Vale of Clwyd, the list of exemptions is woeful, because the local councils have to seek…

Petitions Committee and Children, Young People, and Education Committee Joint Debate—Services for care-experienced children and young people
Well, what underpins all this, Jane—. We've talked for an hour about children's services and the most vulnerable children in society, but where are they looked after? Some 80 per cent of the sector, Jane. So, there's an elephant in the room here, and it's…
