Updates to previous petitions
Thank you, Chair, and I agree with you, in a sense, that it is quite an important petition to agree, and it’s had a lot of interest, and I know that the Local Government and Housing Committee have also looked into that, and I know that because I’m on the…

Thank you, Chair. It was just a quick observation really. I know we’ve had a similar petition coming in—I can’t remember if we’ve debated it now, or if it will be debated—about Ruperra castle, and about management plans for privately owned amenities, for want…

Thank you, Chair. I agree with what Buffy and Luke have said, really, in terms of trying to look to see what support is out there. I know Luke was saying then about the benefits of bilingual education, but also—it's something I've raised in the Chamber…

Thank you, Chair. Just a quick thing, really. I was reading this petition with some interest, and I know that we’ve got a debate coming up about squirrelpox, and I definitely think that this is something that could be highlighted during that as well, really…

Questions to the Minister for Health and Social Services
Thank you, Minister. Constituents complain to me that they have been unable to make routine appointments with the Forest View Medical Centre in Treorchy, struggling to even get hold of them on the phone, which is causing considerable distress for people who…

Local Authority Library and Leisure Services - Evidence from the Deputy Minister for Arts, Sport and Tourism
Thank you, Minister. Yes, it was just surprising that one of the biggest players in the game, as you’d say—Awen—was just unaware of the amount of support that was there, really. But, yes, if you could, that would be good.

Local Authority Library and Leisure Services - Evidence from the Deputy Minister for Arts, Sport and Tourism
Okay. Thanks ever so much for the response. The final question that I have is on something that was brought up, again, in previous evidence sessions. If I remember rightly, it was Awen Cultural Trust who brought it up, about a lack of awareness of what…

Local Authority Library and Leisure Services - Evidence from the Deputy Minister for Arts, Sport and Tourism
Thanks ever so much for all of this morning's evidence. You mentioned previously the issues that leisure facilities face, and one of the issues that was raised with us previously is decarbonisation and the difficulties the leisure service has in doing that…

Statement by the Deputy Minister for Climate Change: Update on Bus Services
Thank you, Deputy Minister, for your statement today, but it would be remiss of me not to highlight the shambolic rail replacement services that we currently have in my region by Transport for Wales. It's a classic example of how a lack of foresight and a…

Questions to the First Minister
Thank you, First Minister, and I think we can all agree here that game is a hugely sustainable meat source and has a wide variety of health and environmental benefits. For the record, Llywydd, I'm a member of the British Association for Shooting and…

Questions to the Minister for Social Justice and Chief Whip
Thank you, Minister, for your response. I believe that I speak for everyone here when I say how shocked we were to read about the culture of bullying and misogyny within Plaid Cymru. And it’s disappointing to hear the comments earlier from my colleagues…

Questions to the Minister for Social Justice and Chief Whip
As you will know, Minister, research has continually shown that those who have gone through foster, residential or kinship care are more likely to become parents at a far younger age than others. Indeed, studies in the UK have shown that almost a quarter of…

Updates to previous petitions - continuation
Thank you, Chair. I note from the report that the Welsh Government has recognised this as an issue, and is in the process of trying to address it. I know that the Deputy Minister has offered to provide ongoing further information, so, I suspect it might be…

New Petitions
Thank you, Chair. What it is, I'm only conscious of my comments on the last petition, where I noted a number of reports and consultations happening. Obviously, with what my colleague has just mentioned then, something similar is happening now, so rather than…

Thank you, Chair. I note from the report that there are a number of consultations and reports that are in the process of being published soon, for example, the Senedd committee inquiry into Welsh education strategic plans and everything, so it's probably best…

Evidence session 2 - P-06-1326 The Senedd should scrutinise the prepayment meter scandal in Wales
Thank you, Chair. I think Chris mentioned just now the importance of data sharing. I know we've heard from previous evidence sessions about the difficulty in getting access to that data, and then also in terms of how—. I don't want to say how open or…

Thanks, Chair, and thanks, everyone, for coming in online this afternoon. I just wanted to pick up a question the Chair was asking about debt collection, and especially with you, Andrew, about the debt collectors that you use. Can I just have some…
