Evidence Session (Panel 1) - P-06-1224 Design a 'Care Leavers Plus' Universal Basic Income pilot that includes a range of people
Okay, thanks for that. Just before I bring Joel in, I have got a couple of questions on the back of what we've said. Whether it be the care leavers pilot proposed by the Welsh Government today—which I think is quite a bold and progressive step, to have that…

Thank you, both, and welcome to today's Petitions Committee. It's great to have you both here, and I think we'll delve straight into questions around universal basic income and the petition in hand. Sophie, if I can start with you. You've been a long-standing…

Questions to the Counsel General and Minister for the Constitution
I thank the Counsel General for his second answer. [Laughter.] Counsel General, there is a growing body of Wales-specific law and much of which is designed to empower residents in Wales to hold public bodies to account. Now, the availability of public law…

Questions to the Counsel General and Minister for the Constitution
I appreciate that answer, Counsel General, and, of course, I very much welcome the commitment from the Welsh Government to commit to bringing forward a pilot on the universal basic income, an idea that was sparked in interest because of the debate I led…

Impact of waiting times backlog on people who are waiting for diagnosis or treatment: evidence session with mental health and psychological support organisations
Just very, very briefly, Chair—and a brief answer. Quite honestly, I'm on antidepressants—I've got no problem with saying that—but do you think, given the things we've discussed this morning with regard to waiting times and so on, that people are being…

Impact of waiting times backlog on people who are waiting for diagnosis or treatment: evidence session with mental health and psychological support organisations
Okay. That certainly gives an area for the committee to look into. Just a final question from me, Chair, with regard to A&E. You've seen some of the sessions, you've seen the news, and there's a reason why we're doing this inquiry on waiting times, but have…

Impact of waiting times backlog on people who are waiting for diagnosis or treatment: evidence session with mental health and psychological support organisations
You've briefly answered—. Well, you have answered my next question. It is an historical issue. The pandemic clearly has made—. And I can see Professor Hails nodding with that, but there was clearly an issue before COVID, and it may have made it worse, but…

Impact of waiting times backlog on people who are waiting for diagnosis or treatment: evidence session with mental health and psychological support organisations
Okay, thanks for that. I'll take from that, because the outcome of that is there's quite a large weight on the support network around them, so they need to be—. Okay, thanks for that. Just moving back, then, to access to psychological therapies, we mentioned…

Impact of waiting times backlog on people who are waiting for diagnosis or treatment: evidence session with mental health and psychological support organisations
Thank you, Chair. I've got some questions but we'll be going over some of the stuff we've been over, so I'll try and cut them down. Just before we do that, I just want to pick back up on a point Simon made about the care plans when you're perhaps an…

Impact of waiting times backlog on people who are waiting for diagnosis or treatment: evidence session with primary care organisations
Yes, thank you, Chair. It's very simple, really. Rhun asked a very good question on confidence in the COVID recovery plan and I think we can take from the answers that there's not particularly confidence there. So, what would give you confidence? What would…

Impact of waiting times backlog on people who are waiting for diagnosis or treatment: evidence session with primary care organisations
Cheers, both. Thank you, Chair. Just in terms of workforce planning, because we hear about it quite a lot, workforce planning, and we've heard it a few times today, I'm just interested in realising where are we. I fully agree that we need to focus on…
