Scrutiny of Transport for Wales - session 1
Just finishing it off, I suppose, this section. There are tiers, and the final tier, I suppose, is the corporate joint committees and how they fit in, to use that term, that Tolkien circle, if you like, so that everybody's engaged, but, more importantly, that…

Scrutiny of Transport for Wales - session 1
Well, maybe this next bit will help you with all the other bits, because there is a new national transport development plan, and there are also regional transport plans that the Minister mentioned in her draft budget statement. So, the question is obvious…

Scrutiny of Transport for Wales - session 1
Can I ask—? Obviously, there is a step before all of that, and thank you for what you've said, but the step before that has to be the conversation between yourselves and Government, because they've decided that you might take something on, but I'm assuming…

Scrutiny of Transport for Wales - session 1
Good afternoon, both. Transport for Wales has had growing responsibilities since you were first formed, and I'm specifically interested in that transfer process, the rationale for the areas that have been transferred, and how the board prepares and is assured…

Debate on a Member's Legislative Proposal: Janet Finch-Saunders (Aberconwy)—Marine planning in Wales
Thank you, Janet, for tabling this debate. As a Member who represents a sizeable stretch of our coastline, I like to remind people that Welsh seas are more than a third larger than the Welsh land mass. So, marine planning is critical to many policies and…

Questions to the Senedd Commission
I hear clearly what you're saying, and I was there at the decision to set it up in this way. One of the reasons for it being set up externally rather than internally was because individuals were saying at that time that they would prefer an arm's-length…

Questions to the Senedd Commission
I thank the Member for the question. The Senedd Commission continues to make mental health and well-being a priority. This has been well evidenced during the challenging time of the pandemic. The Commission has a long-established on-site occupational health…

Women and girls' health: evidence session with the Women's Health Wales Coalition
And I did notice—. I've done an awful lot of trying to end violence against women, and I did notice the point you made about including health as a part of that discussion, and also, therefore, solutions, and I'm really pleased that you have, but I don't want…

Women and girls' health: evidence session with the Women's Health Wales Coalition
Two key things here, then, coming out: disaggregated data, widely disaggregated data—I'm going to throw a curve ball here in a minute, but I'll leave that just for a second—but there's an issue that is rather dreadful and that is the disproportionate…

Women and girls' health: evidence session with the Women's Health Wales Coalition
You talked about the gender equality intersectionality, so I'm not going to ask those, but I would have. But I am going to ask very quickly about the disparity of the expectation that a woman living with a disability, a learning disability particularly—their…

Women and girls' health: evidence session with the Women's Health Wales Coalition
Yes. We've done almost all of the things, but I think the big thing here is the ability for people within a healthcare setting and, perhaps, more widely to recognise when women need help with a gynaecological problem, wherever that might be. It might be a…

Thank you. There's an example of best practice that we can use, which is always useful for us, and we can make a recommendation from. All the other questions I was going to ask have been already asked. Thank you.
