Welsh Conservatives Debate: The Welsh language
I’m going to call Gareth Davies next, and I understand that he has apologised to the Llywydd for his earlier contribution, and therefore, he is able to take part in this debate.

Questions to the Senedd Commission
I thank you for highlighting what you have highlighted and the inadequacies that currently still exist. I finished my first part by answering you, saying that we're not complacent and that we will always strive to be inclusive, and that of course stands. The…

Questions to the Senedd Commission
Thank you for that question. The Commission is committed to ensuring that the Senedd estate is accessible to everyone. Accessibility was one of the key considerations during the design of the Senedd building, and we also considered accessibility when…

The Welsh Government roads review and funding for Wales' bus networks - scrutiny of the Deputy Minister for Climate Change
Thank you. In terms of other reviews and recommendations, beyond the new purposes and conditions—those things that will be taken forward—are we able to recycle some of that money? You've sort of answered that, but how are we going to address the skills gap…

The Welsh Government roads review and funding for Wales' bus networks - scrutiny of the Deputy Minister for Climate Change
It's just on the same theme, engaging all partners to come on a journey, and pun is intended. There are three partners. The UK Government is one partner, because they have to give us some more money and it's going to take some capital as well as revenue…

Carbon Budget 1 and Net Zero Wales - scrutiny of the Minister for Climate Change
Yes. As we said, we want to look at the progress, so, in order to look at the progress, we need to look at the monitoring, because otherwise we won't understand how that's going forward. So, we had a response to Lord Deben's comment that the areas where Wales…

Carbon Budget 1 and Net Zero Wales - scrutiny of the Minister for Climate Change
Thank you. That was a very clear message. Of course, it's not easy. If we are going to transition in terms of energy production, there are two sides. One is the transition into the cleaner, greener energy, because nothing is carbon neutral, but also the…

Carbon Budget 1 and Net Zero Wales - scrutiny of the Minister for Climate Change
Good morning, Minister. You've already alluded to the challenge in reaching carbon budget 3, and I'm sure that that's the case. What I would like to explore is what are the main challenges that we face as a nation to get to that carbon budget 3.

Statement by the Deputy Minister for Social Partnership: Fair Work: Annual Progress and Priorities
Diolch, Llywydd. Social partnerships have to be the key that underpins everything in the workplace, and, contrary to the Tory myth and ideological constructs that they have that are different to ours, social partnerships actually benefit both the worker and…

Questions to the Minister for Rural Affairs and North Wales, and Trefnydd
Greyhound racing is all too often incredibly dangerous for the greyhounds, and there is this statistic that 2,000 greyhounds were euthanised in the UK between 2018 and 2020 simply as a result of being raced. I strongly believe that no animal should suffer in…

Endoscopy services: evidence session with the Welsh Association for Gastroenterology and Endoscopy, Joint Advisory Group on GI Endoscopy and Health Education and Improvement Wales
I'll come back now; I wanted to give time for that because it was important. Innovation, I'm going to talk about innovation, and we've had evidence that says that Wales can be comparatively slow to adopt innovation. And is innovation always useful? You…

I think if we let Gareth go, in case we run out of time, because he particularly wants to ask—and mine's been part answered.

Endoscopy services: evidence session with the Welsh Association for Gastroenterology and Endoscopy, Joint Advisory Group on GI Endoscopy and Health Education and Improvement Wales
Maybe the question is to Dr Turner: in your view, are health boards giving sufficient priority to obtaining the JAG accreditation? I don't think he heard me.

Endoscopy services: evidence session with the Welsh Association for Gastroenterology and Endoscopy, Joint Advisory Group on GI Endoscopy and Health Education and Improvement Wales
And are they getting targeted support? You've identified the issue—you need to perhaps target that support. Are they getting that? That's one question. And then, following on from that, are the health boards giving sufficient priority to achieving JAG…

Endoscopy services: evidence session with the Welsh Association for Gastroenterology and Endoscopy, Joint Advisory Group on GI Endoscopy and Health Education and Improvement Wales
I was going to get to geographical areas, because I'm Mid and West Wales, and we have a number of hospitals and they're all in the rural area. I was going to ask, whilst you've identified that it's basically dignity and respect, is it achievable for those…

Endoscopy services: evidence session with the Welsh Association for Gastroenterology and Endoscopy, Joint Advisory Group on GI Endoscopy and Health Education and Improvement Wales
Good morning, all. I want to particularly ask questions about the JAG accreditation. You've mentioned barriers—some of them have already been talked about—in achieving that accreditation. Is there a big variation between the health boards?
