The Council Tax (Long-term Empty Dwellings and Dwellings Occupied Periodically) (Wales) Regulations 2022
Let us recall that we're talking about discretionary powers here—don't forget that. These are discretionary powers. This isn't an order saying, 'Use these powers', or, 'You must implement these powers.' This is but one element in a far broader range of…

I mean right to buy is part of the reason that we're here discussing this, to be honest.

The Corporate Joint Committees (General) (Wales) Regulations 2022 and The Crime and Disorder Act 1998 (Additional Authority) (Wales) Order 2022
The Senedd will, of course, be aware that Plaid Cymru opposed the creation of these corporate joint committees in the last Senedd. That's a battle that we lost, of course, and therefore if these joint committees are to come into existence, then they need to…

Scrutiny of Transport for Wales - session 2
Great. We have run out of time. So, may I thank James and Geoff for the evidence that you have provided today? You will receive a copy of the transcript—a draft copy—so that you can check it. And along with the evidence that we gathered this morning in the…

Yes, absolutely. Okay. Thank you, Huw. Jenny.

Scrutiny of Transport for Wales - session 2
I'm afraid we're going to have to move on. We'll come to Huw and then we'll come to Jenny. I know that Jenny has a couple of things that she wants to raise, but we might not be able to cover them all, so you'll have to prioritise, I think. Huw first and then…

Excellent. Okay, thank you for that. And as Huw suggested, I'm sure we'll write to you to drill down on some of those points as well. Rhun.

Scrutiny of Transport for Wales - session 2
Okay. Thank you for that. Many of those points, actually, were raised this morning as well, in the stakeholder session, as I'm sure you can imagine. Geoff.

Scrutiny of Transport for Wales - session 2
There's about four questions in one there. So, James, I want you to address each of them, obviously, but maybe we'll need to be, you know—

Janet, you indicated that you might want to raise something under behaviour change.

Scrutiny of Transport for Wales - session 2
Yes, and I'm sure that's a sentiment we'd all endorse as well. Jenny.
, Climate Change, Environment, and Infrastructure Committee
Scrutiny of Transport for Wales - session 2
No, that's okay. Come in, Geoff. That's fine.
, Climate Change, Environment, and Infrastructure Committee
Scrutiny of Transport for Wales - session 2
Can we bring Huw in here? He wants to just come in. And then maybe, Jenny, if you want to I'll come back to you, and I think maybe Janet wants to come in on behaviour change as well. We'll come to Huw first.

Welcome back to this meeting of the Climate Change, Environment, and Infrastructure Committee. We are continuing with our scrutiny of Transport for Wales, and we welcome back James Price and Geoff Ogden from Transport for Wales. We're now going to focus on…

Scrutiny of Transport for Wales - session 1
Thanks. Okay. Thank you so much for that. I think that probably concludes the general scrutiny element of our meeting, and it's probably the right time for us just to take a short break. We'll break for 10 minutes. We'll reconvene just before 14:00 so that we…
