Debate on the Climate Change, Environment and Infrastructure Committee Report, 'Natural Resources Wales—Annual Scrutiny 2022-23'
Thank you to everyone for their contribution, but the biggest thanks go to NRW, because, whilst we're all on the front line when it comes to the fight against climate change and biodiversity loss, their role, of course, is a leading role in that context…

Questions to the Minister for Rural Affairs and North Wales, and Trefnydd
Rather more than a bit of concern, I think, from the organic sector. It's strange, isn't it, because two minutes ago, in response to another question, you said that farmers knew that Glastir was ending—there's no excuse, everybody knew that Glastir was coming…

Questions to the Minister for Rural Affairs and North Wales, and Trefnydd
Diolch, Llywydd. Minister, details around the Habitat Wales scheme are, of course, still rather unclear, aren't they? And I couldn't agree more with the farming unions when they tell us that the ambiguity is unsettling for those considering entering the…
