Public service broadcasting in Wales: evidence session with S4C (1)
Well, I can identify with that analysis of the world cup broadcasting, because, certainly, I'm of the view that the S4C broadcasting has been excellent. But the question I'm trying to ask here is: in terms of sustainability and moving forward, do we have too…

Public service broadcasting in Wales: evidence session with S4C (1)
Thank you, Chair. I see that eight of the programmes with the highest viewing figures in 2022-23 are sports broadcasts. Are you over-reliant on sports as a channel?

Public service broadcasting in Wales: evidence session with S4C (1)
Right, okay, thanks.

Public service broadcasting in Wales: evidence session with S4C (1)
Yes, okay. That makes sense.

I'm not sufficiently familiar with the sector, to be honest, but I would say that 18 months doesn't sound very long to me, but maybe it does to you, does it?

Public service broadcasting in Wales: evidence session with S4C (1)
So, to what extent do you succeed in doing that, in your view, and to what extent does the element of financial security, for the foreseeable future at least, allow you to do that?

Public service broadcasting in Wales: evidence session with S4C (1)
Right. Okay. And in terms of commissioning, there's the pipeline and early decisions need to be made, don't they, in order to provide assurances and continuity for companies in the sector?

To what extent do those figures reflect indigenous Welsh companies and not the companies that, perhaps, temporarily open an office in Wales to get contracts?

Business Statement and Announcement
Given that Jacob Rees-Mogg has said this week that he wants to see hormone-injected beef from Australia come to this country so that he can eat it, could we have a statement from the Welsh Government offering to buy him a one-way ticket to Australia, where he…

Questions to the First Minister
Given that we don't have any road charging in Wales, what inspiration are you taking from Tory-run England where they have a large number of toll roads and congestion charging schemes?

Questions to the Minister for Education and the Welsh Language
Thank you very much for that, because as you know, in several parts of Wales, if you want to access Welsh-medium education rather than English-medium education, you have to travel further, because there may be only one or two Welsh-medium schools in some…

Questions to the Minister for Climate Change
Thank you, Llywydd. I too support the improvement of pedestrian safety in Pwllglas. Clearly, the new playing area is going to attract people, but not just those from the village. I know from experience that children, and young people in particular, are…

Statement by the Minister for Climate Change: Net-zero Commitments
Thank you, Dirprwy Lywydd. It's—I apologise—no coincidence; I couldn't remember the word. It's no coincidence that Rishi Sunak's approval ratings fell to their lowest levels ever very soon after he made this announcement on pausing climate change measures. We…

Business Statement and Announcement
Trefnydd, I'd like to request a statement from the Welsh Government on the ongoing situation in the Nagorno-Karabakh region. Now, I spoke about this in a small debate—short debate, I should say—that I held in the Senedd a while ago, and the situation, of…

And therefore on to the fifth item, and, in accordance with Standing Order 17.42(vi) and (ix), I propose that the committee resolves to meet in private for the remainder of the meeting, if Members are content. Are Members content? Yes, everybody is happy…

Papers to note
The committee will then move on to the next item, item 4, papers to note. There are 10 papers in our pack. I know perhaps that some points will be raised in the private session on one or two of them, but does anyone want to raise anything now, or shall we…

Infrastructure (Wales) Bill - Evidence session with Community groups & RTPI Cymru
Okay. Thank you very much. We've come to the end of the session, so may I thank Roisin and James for the evidence you've shared with us, very valuable as usual? And we appreciate your time. Thank you very much. Thank you.
