Gynaecological cancers: Panel 6
So, you’ve made this statement. What are the reasons underneath the statement? Why is it that Wales is less likely to do it?

Gynaecological cancers: Panel 5 - Public Health Wales
Finally from me, HPV is a sexually transmitted virus, and it's parents who would advise their children to be vaccinated or not vaccinated. Have you got any evidence that alludes to parents thinking that their children are not sexually active and therefore…

Gynaecological cancers: Panel 5 - Public Health Wales
You said that there's a very high percentage of HPV infection with the potential going on for cervical cancers, and it's been proved also that immunisation is hugely effective in preventing any of that, so there must be concern about vaccine hesitancy. It…

Gynaecological cancers: Panel 5 - Public Health Wales
One of those mature conversations was had when we had the COVID outbreak and it was quite clear where you were asking younger people—not just boys, but younger people—not to infect older people or other people. Has that sort of thinking gone on—a 'Just…

Okay. Is there a reason that boys are more resistant to the uptake than girls?

Gynaecological cancers: Panel 5 - Public Health Wales
Good morning, both. I want to focus on HPV, particularly, and vaccination especially. And you say that protecting against different strains of HPV could prevent 75 per cent of vulval cancer cases—and that's a really high number—and reduce 150 cases of cancer…

Statement by the Minister for Social Justice and Chief Whip: Refugee Week, 19-25 June—Compassion
I will do—intimidation by far-right thugs spreading misinformation and hate. We need compassion. So, can I ask you, Minister—I know you've been in touch with the UK Government over this—have you had any more information from the UK Government, or are we all…

Statement by the Minister for Social Justice and Chief Whip: Refugee Week, 19-25 June—Compassion
Language is really important here. We need to talk about people, not stats, so when we talk about people who are seeking asylum, they are often referred to as 'illegal migrants' and that's where we need to draw the separation. So, when the Tories are bringing…

Statement by the Minister for Climate Change: The Infrastructure (Wales) Bill
I welcome the statement today. I think that there is a need to move forward to a modern, to a simplified, and to a much-needed regime. Lots of people have asked questions, of course, that I might have done, but Wales is facing an economic and environmental…

Hywel Dda is strong on mental health. It's the first health board in Wales to roll out the 111 press 2 service, where people can speak to a mental health practitioner 24/7, and it's currently piloting a number of forward-thinking alternatives to admissions…

The environment and rural affairs monitoring and modelling programme—is it fit for purpose in terms of monitoring biodiversity and understanding the drivers, in your opinion?

Biodiversity and the nature emergency - evidence session 2
I raised the issue in Plenary about the way that planning works at the moment, and if there's a site going to be developed, the first thing they do is come in, bulldoze it and take everything out. And I mentioned hedges, particularly, so I'm keen to ask you…

Thank you, and I'm just going to refer you to my register of interests, because I'm a member of the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds. So, I'm going to ask about nature recovery targets and how nature positive should be represented in Welsh…

Short Debate: Support for women in Wales who suffer with premenstrual dysphoric disorder
I want to thank Buffy for bringing this debate today, and for sharing so honestly her own situation as was. And we've all heard it growing up, 'Oh, it's that time of the month' or 'She's a bit moody, take no notice.' And those things, you still hear them…

Welsh Conservatives Debate: Blue carbon habitats
I thank the Welsh Conservative group for tabling this motion. Three years ago, I led a short debate on the need to add blue to the green recovery, and I called it 'the teal new deal', and I think that it speaks to this room today. As I said then, and, as…

Evaluation of the Social Services and Well-being (Wales) Act 2014: Panel 2
So, okay, so you’ve sort of given that analogy. There’s another one here about the call for the ring-fencing of resources for community-based prevention, and it might help—. And it might help, I’m quoting here, ‘to avoid the danger that the prevention agenda…
