The Right to Adequate Housing - evidence session 2
Perfect, thank you. Chair, just one final question, if that's okay. In your report, you mention the difficulties or the challenges in quantifying some of the impact, especially in terms of the right types of homes being in the right place, and then the impact…

The Right to Adequate Housing - evidence session 2
Perfect. Thanks ever so much for that. Well, I suppose I'll switch my questioning a bit more now to the report rather than the generalities of it, I suppose. We heard from the previous evidence session about how fundamental increasing the housing supply is to…

The Right to Adequate Housing - evidence session 2
Thanks ever so much for that. So, with that in mind, you highlighted Finland as a model, and their legislation there isn't as strong but the political will is there to make it work. Do you see that there's probably an absence of political will here, then, to…

The Right to Adequate Housing - evidence session 2
Thank you, Chair, and thanks, everyone, for coming in this morning. Just a quick couple of questions, really, that I just wanted to pick your brains about. I'm conscious that you mentioned there that you've not done a cost-benefit analysis of the status quo…

The Right to Adequate Housing - evidence session 1
Thank you, Chair. If I could just come back in then, I get what you're saying there—. I suppose it's a frustration on my part in the sense that that paragraph I read, which was not necessarily from the Alma Economics report, it was from your own submission to…

The Right to Adequate Housing - evidence session 1
Thank you, Chair, and thanks ever so much for coming in today. I just wanted to ask a few questions on the cost and benefits of introducing the right to adequate housing legislation. You mentioned before an investment of £5 billion over 30 years, which was…

Group 10: Annual socially responsible procurement reports (Amendments 7, 8, 9, 44, 46)
I'm conscious that this is the last opportunity that I'll have to speak, and I would just like to put on record my thanks to the group office, the clerking team and my staff for all the help they've given me, not only through Stage 3 amendments, but the whole…

Group 7: Social partnership duty (Amendment 43)
Thank you, Llywydd. By not having a time frame stated in the Bill, I ultimately think that the Welsh Government will come to regret this decision. When demands are made of public bodies by trade unions or staff representatives that they cannot accommodate…

Group 7: Social partnership duty (Amendment 43)
Thank you, Llywydd. I wish to speak to my amendment 43. The purpose of this amendment is to have clarity over the time frame for which a public body can move on with meeting well-being goals if consensus has not been reached with staff representatives. I…

Thank you, Llywydd, and I'm not surprised that the Deputy Minister's yet again rejected my amendment. It's clear that the Deputy Minister and the Welsh Government are not open to any transparency whatsoever and it is becoming very obvious that the Welsh…

Group 5: Political affiliation (Amendments 30, 41)
Thank you, Llywydd, and I will speak to my amendments. For the purpose of strengthening transparency and accountability, it is entirely appropriate, in my mind, that those trade unions who have elected members onto the SPC are asked to declare as part of the…
