Mental health inequalities: evidence session with Centre for Mental Health and Mental Health Foundation
I'll move on now to what they were expecting me to ask, and that was about the strategy for mental health. You've answered, of course, moving on from it being just a healthcare issue. I want to ask in terms of Government and organisations just seeing it…

Mental health inequalities: evidence session with Centre for Mental Health and Mental Health Foundation
I just, with your allowance, Chair, want to tease out something that you touched on earlier, and there are two things together here. We talk about neurodivergent conditions and people therefore having labels as a consequence, and I just want to explore how…

Mental health inequalities: evidence session with Centre for Mental Health and Mental Health Foundation
Yes, and they've been well documented. But are there any new or emerging areas of concern that you've been tracking as a consequence? You've just mentioned that it will be ongoing. Ten million, I think you said, which is a huge figure. Obviously, that's UK…

Mental health inequalities: evidence session with Centre for Mental Health and Mental Health Foundation

Hospital discharge and its impact on patient flow through hospitals: evidence session with the Minister and Deputy Minister for Health and Social Services
Beyond money, I've got two key questions. You've already answered one, and that was on direct payments, and you've already recognised that it can be slow. So, can we speed that up? Is there a willingness to put in a fast-track for that? And the other one: you…

Hospital discharge and its impact on patient flow through hospitals: evidence session with the Minister and Deputy Minister for Health and Social Services
We understand that, but we had evidence from Carers Wales, telling us that the legal obligations under the Social Services and Well-being (Wales) Act 2014 are being undermined because there is an expectation that people are both willing and able to provide…

Hospital discharge and its impact on patient flow through hospitals: evidence session with the Minister and Deputy Minister for Health and Social Services
Good morning, both. I'm going on to the pressure on unpaid carers. And, of course, your announcement this week, I'm sure, is very welcomed by those, and the recognition that they'll have as a consequence of that. But six of the seven health boards and their…

Welsh Conservatives Debate: Food Security
Thank you for taking the intervention. We have seen today, of course, the spring budget, and what would have helped people, producers particularly, here, is around the cost of fuel and energy. If there had been a windfall tax towards helping that, rather than…

Statement by the Deputy Minister for Social Services: The Children (Wales) Act
I do welcome the abolition of reasonable punishment Wales Act. It is a hugely significant day, and if we did follow the argument that we heard earlier from Janet Finch-Saunders—that the state is intervening in people's lives—well, I'm glad that they are…

Business Statement and Announcement
Minister, I'd like to ask for a statement on school meal standards at Ysgol Dyffryn Taf in Whitland, or rather the lack of standards. Recent reports in the press have shown some pretty disturbing images of undercooked and watery food, including meat, which…
