I just wanted to ask, given that you've said about the discrepancy, once you've undertaken that analysis, in terms of why the report is saying one thing and you're thinking another, could you share that with the committee?

Can I—?

I think that will probably be a different session.

So, is that as a result of the challenge from the CCC working in conjunction?

UK Climate Change Committee 'Progress report: Reducing emissions in Wales' - evidence session with the Minister for Climate Change
I know we want to get into specific areas, but one final question in terms of overview from me, please, if I may. In terms of the CCC, they've previously recommended that the Welsh Government should publish a transparent and quantified link between policies…

UK Climate Change Committee 'Progress report: Reducing emissions in Wales' - evidence session with the Minister for Climate Change
Yes, because, obviously, we are focused today on the report specifically on Wales, and I do want to return to the fact that the report does say that we are not using our full powers to full effect. I think that's the focus I would like us to place. Obviously…

If I can, Minister, from the comments you've made, do you think the criticisms are unfair from this report?

Many thanks, and good to have you both here. If I can start then, Minister, obviously we all saw on the news yesterday the huge wildfire on Rhigos mountain—not the only wildfire we've seen in Wales already this year. If anyone doubts that climate change is…

Short Debate: Cancer inequalities in Wales
May I sincerely thank Delyth Jewell? As Delyth mentioned, we have all known people who were too late in getting their diagnosis, unfortunately. The inequality—there are so many people who don't want to be a nuisance, they ignore the symptoms. And it can be…

Thank you very much, Dirprwy Lywydd, and I'm very pleased to hear that the Conservatives will be supporting those amendments. I'm also very grateful that you have put forward this debate. It is an exceptionally important issue for a number of our…

Member Debate under Standing Order 11.21(iv)—Warm This Winter campaign
I think we also need to be honest in terms of how it is people living in poverty who are having the least impact on the environment in terms of the climate crisis. They don't have cars, because they can't afford them. They don't waste energy, because they…
