Member Debate under Standing Order 11.21(iv): Small businesses and tourism
Thank you, Hefin, for proposing this debate. Inspired by you, I'd like to tell you about the wonders available in Cardiff Central; for example, the treasures available for free at our national museum in Cathays Park, much of it there thanks to the ingenuity…

Statement by the Deputy Minister for Social Services: Rebalancing Care and Support White Paper—Next steps
Clearly, if we're going to institute a different way of paying for social care, we are going to have to legislate. But, hopefully, the UK Government will come up with something. So, in the meantime, I completely support your focus on commissioning quality…

Statement by the Counsel General and Minister for the Constitution: The Legislative Programme
—and their activities, and I can understand the reticence of the Government to want to add to the challenges that industry is facing as a result of Brexit and the tsunami, and COVID, but one of the things we really, really need—as well as the 20 mph default…

Statement by the Counsel General and Minister for the Constitution: The Legislative Programme
I just wanted to press you a little bit on how we could improve and enhance electoral registration, because it seems to me that one of the most important things is that everybody is entitled to take part in elections, because if we have a large number of…

Statement by the Deputy Minister for Social Partnership: Advancing LGBTQ+ Equality in Wales
As a person of a certain age, I remember the way in which Peter Tatchell was hounded by the press when he stood in Bermondsey 40 years ago, just because of his sexual preferences, and I hope we have come a long way since then, but, clearly, there's much more…

Business Statement and Announcement
Trefnydd, I very much welcome yesterday's announcement that, if you've been vaccinated in Wales, you can download a Welsh COVID pass online to demonstrate to whoever needs to know that you are protected by two jabs. And this seems to me a really good example…

Member Debate under Standing Order 11.21(iv): Bus services
I represent a constituency of contrast: some of the wealthiest wards in Wales, alongside some of the poorest super-output areas of deprivation. In one of my poorest wards, the medical centre decided to downgrade the surgery in Pentwyn, disinvesting from the…

Statement by the Deputy Minister for Climate Change: Roads review
Thank you for the good-news story that this is eminently doable, because two thirds of all journeys less than five miles means that most of us can bicycle that short journey, and for those who live in the highlands of my constituency, we now have electric…

Statement by the First Minister: The Programme for Government
I thank you for this programme to ensure that the world we leave our children is one that will not be a nightmare and will be worth inheriting. So, as we endeavour to tread more lightly on our production, consumption and waste of the resources of this world…

Business Statement and Announcement
Trefnydd, as the agriculture Minister, I'm sure you'll be delighted to celebrate the fact that Food Cardiff has won the silver award from Sustainable Food Places. It's a real tribute to the work they've done over the last five years, when they got the bronze…

Questions to the First Minister
Thank you very much for that, First Minister. Clearly, it's interesting to see that there is a lot of interest in road safety in today's questions, as well as the impact on air pollution and on carbon emissions. I just want to focus on the impact on children…

Questions to the Minister for Economy
Thank you. This week we've been reminded about the fragility of our post-Brexit trading relationships and the possible implications for our food security. This goes well beyond a spat about sausages and chicken nuggets, and yet the UK continues to import most…

Statement by the Deputy Minister for Social Services: Respite and short breaks fund for unpaid carers
I very much commend the work that you've done to scope the numbers of young carers, particularly those under 16 years, who obviously are the most likely to be missed unless schools are paying attention. I think your idea of respitality is one that's…

Statement by the Minister for Social Justice: EU Settled Status
—many hidden charges to gather the required evidence. So, I just want you to say a little bit more about how local authorities and Government are going to deal with people who may not have recourse to public funds. You know, the Conservative spokesperson says…
