National contemporary art gallery: Ministerial evidence session
Did you say about the announcement of the membership of the network of galleries? Did you cover that in your answer?

National contemporary art gallery: Ministerial evidence session
Diolch, Cadeirydd. I have two questions in one, really. When will you be able to announce the membership of the network of galleries and the location of the anchor site, and when will a definitive list of the host galleries be available?

Swansea Bay City Deal and North Wales Growth Deal
Those were such good, thorough answers; I'm glad I kept my question short.

Swansea Bay City Deal and North Wales Growth Deal
Diolch, Cadeirydd. I'd like to ask two questions in one, really. Both Swansea bay and Ambition North Wales have identified public and private sector risks involved in the project. Could you elaborate on what is being done to mitigate those risks?

Mid Wales Growth Deal and Cardiff Capital Region City Deal
Diolch, Gadeirydd.

Mid Wales Growth Deal and Cardiff Capital Region City Deal
Thank you very much. And with regard to the private sector investment, the final deal agreement says it's between £92 million and £157 million. Can you help us understand how you will secure the investment?

Mid Wales Growth Deal and Cardiff Capital Region City Deal
Diolch, Gadeirydd. Can I just come back to the mid Wales question that we had at the very beginning? I'd just like to ask about the funding breakdown in the final deal agreement, which refers to a contribution of between £75 million and £132 million from…

Mid Wales Growth Deal and Cardiff Capital Region City Deal
With regard to the UK Government's re-profiling of its financial contribution to the deal, have you had information about that, and will you expect to receive confirmation?
, Economy, Trade, and Rural Affairs Committee
Mid Wales Growth Deal and Cardiff Capital Region City Deal
Yes, just on mid Wales, just to follow up on the question you asked, Chair, if that's okay.

Debate on the General Principles of the Environment (Air Quality and Soundscapes) (Wales) Bill
With regard to the practical measures and the powers Ministers have, the Bill amends the Environment Act 1995 to give Welsh Ministers the power to prescribe penalties for stationary car idling, and particularly—and it's a huge problem—stationary car idling…

Pre-appointment scrutiny hearing with the preferred candidate for the post of Chair of Amgueddfa Cymru
I think that's it, Chair. I'm really happy with those answers.

Pre-appointment scrutiny hearing with the preferred candidate for the post of Chair of Amgueddfa Cymru
One of the things the committee is interested in is international relations, and selling Wales to the world and bringing the world to Wales. So, how do you think the role will enable you to achieve that objective?

Pre-appointment scrutiny hearing with the preferred candidate for the post of Chair of Amgueddfa Cymru
Diolch. One of the things you said in your response to the questionnaire was that you wanted to work with individuals, and I think you said your first job would be to fully understand the partnerships with individuals and organisations that are already in…

Questions to the First Minister
I'm very pleased to say that a report will go to Caerphilly council's cabinet this evening—or tomorrow evening, I think it might be—that Caerphilly will fund free school meals during the summer holidays for the most vulnerable people. I think that Caerphilly…

Debate: Education’s Links with Employers
Just very quickly; it's something I didn't have time to say in my speech. The Federation of Small Businesses also recognised that they face different challenges to the larger CBI-representated businesses, and a good example in the report is Coleg Llandrillo…

Debate: Education’s Links with Employers
And I think access to learners is key. So, on page 4 of the report, for example, the director of the employers' organisation the Confederation of British Industry Wales says that: 'Employer engagement with schools is very, very patchy, and very, very…

Debate: Education’s Links with Employers
Diolch, Dirprwy Lywydd. It's a shame these debates are so curtailed, because I could have listened to Heledd and Laura some more, and I just wanted to say that representatives of Engage to Change from Cardiff University are in the gallery today listening to…

Debate on petition P-06-1340, 'Stop the change of speed limits to 20mph on 17th September'
I'd like Natasha Asghar to head to Rudry, Machen, St Martin's Road and Gilfach in my constituency and in her region and make a version of that speech on the doorstep, because I guarantee that people who hear it will not be happy. There have been tragic…

It's really weird to hear the Conservatives attacking the much-loved institution that is the Caerphilly Observer, which is run from my constituency. Richard Gurner, the editor, is held in huge respect by the population of Caerphilly, and the only people who…

Plaid Cymru Debate: Devolution of justice and policing
I just saw a Plaid Cymru meme on Twitter earlier that said the opposite of that. So, you're suggesting that that's just untruthful.
