Infrastructure (Wales) Bill - Evidence session with Transport sector developers
No. I think that's covered everything.

Infrastructure (Wales) Bill - Evidence session with Transport sector developers
One area that might be of interest to both of you, I would imagine, is the cross-border issue. Lots of stakeholders have highlighted the potential impact on developers with cross-border projects, raising the question of how regimes on each side of the border…

Infrastructure (Wales) Bill - Evidence session with Transport sector developers
We're going to talk about status and hierarchy of planning policies. We've been told by the Minister that she isn't aware of any policy gaps, and, currently, no infrastructure policy statements are planned. However, in Transport for Wales's paper, you say…

Okay.

Infrastructure (Wales) Bill - Evidence session with Energy sector developers
Okay. The other—. I'm going to move on now to cross-border issues, because the borders are pretty porous. So, in your opinion—and we're talking about land and sea here—how could the Bill be improved to provide more clarity in this area? You've already talked…

Infrastructure (Wales) Bill - Evidence session with Energy sector developers
We're going on to talk about the grid and the infrastructure that surrounds it, and of course visual impact is of a big concern to everybody. I know enough about this, since there are big proposals in my area. So, how will the policy help both those people…

Infrastructure (Wales) Bill - Evidence session with Energy sector developers
So, if I can, you started off where I was going to continue, so that's useful. So, having said what you've just said, how do you think that the infrastructure policy statement should take precedence over 'Future Wales' and the marine plan? You've already…
, Climate Change, Environment, and Infrastructure Committee
Infrastructure (Wales) Bill - Evidence session with Energy sector developers
Thank you. So, the Welsh Government has indicated that it doesn't propose to introduce any policy statements other than for novel technologies or issues. In its paper, on the other hand, RWE disagrees and strongly encourages the Welsh Government to reconsider…

Infrastructure (Wales) Bill - Evidence session with the National Infrastructure Planning Association
We've had concerns about the involvement in the community, and part of that community, of course, are applications that will come before us relating to the marine area, for example, perhaps some compulsory purchase. And, of course, a final question: is this…

Thank you. Okay.

Infrastructure (Wales) Bill - Evidence session with the National Infrastructure Planning Association
Finally, going back to the hierarchy, do you believe that 'Future Wales' and the marine plan are drafted in a way that gives sufficient clarity to developers—and it's really moving on from what we've just said—the communities and the decision makers on SIPs?…
, Climate Change, Environment, and Infrastructure Committee
Infrastructure (Wales) Bill - Evidence session with the National Infrastructure Planning Association
Diolch. I'm going to move on to status and hierarchical planning policies, because there have been a number of expressions of concern about the specific provisions for infrastructure policy statements in the Bill, and you started talking about that, and they…

Welsh Conservatives Debate: Deputy Minister for Climate Change
Some facts—and I know that you might find this difficult, but facts and reality. What you've just said is not right. It's factually incorrect, okay? If there was a recall process, first of all you'd have to be registered to vote in the constituency, and then…

Welsh Conservatives Debate: Deputy Minister for Climate Change
I'm out of time. You don't know, when you start something, where it's going to end. So, you need to start thinking about that. I will definitely be supporting the Minister, and I hope that you will start backing off with your vitriol.

Welsh Conservatives Debate: Deputy Minister for Climate Change
I want to pick up where Adam Price has just finished, and pay tribute to him telling that story, because that must have been really difficult. But it brings home why we're here, and I think why we're here is to try and save the lives of those who might be…

European models of health and social care: evidence session with academics
And that's where my question leads exactly, because everything has to be paid for; whichever system you adopt, everything has to be paid for, whether it's—whatever. So, my question is in terms of any models that may or may not, if there are any, be…

European models of health and social care: evidence session with academics
Yes. Good morning, both. One of the things about workforce is, of course, combining health and care workforces, because one is mutually dependent on the other, and if you can you give any examples of other European countries, and maybe a reference to pay…
