Business Statement and Announcement
Can I ask for a statement from the Cabinet Secretary for health on the Welsh Government's position on prostate cancer screening in Wales? Currently, of course, there is no provision for screening in Wales and similarly in other parts of the UK, despite, of…

Questions to the First Minister
Thank you for that response. Following a freedom of information request, I have been staggered, truth be told, by the waiting times experienced by children in north Wales. Sixty-two per cent of all the children referred for assessment have had to wait over a…

Questions to the Cabinet Secretary for Economy, Energy and Planning
Earlier this month, you said, and I quote, that 'it is the Welsh Government's intention to provide a clearer statement of our views and our approach to carbon capture usage and storage,' but the reality is, of course, that it's happening now. We don't really…

Business Statement and Announcement
Can I ask for two statements? I joined a protest in Wrexham on Friday, supporting around 700 workers at Oscar Mayer, who produces ready meals for some of the main supermarkets. Now, they're on strike because the company wants to cut their wages by £3,000 a…

Questions to the First Minister
If you extrapolate the 4,000 additional deaths that the Older People's Commissioner for Wales says the cut to the winter fuel payment will cause to the population of North Wales, the region I represent, then it's about 40 additional people dying as a…

Welsh Conservatives Debate: Council-owned farms
I wanted to ask about my suggestion of a national summit. Clearly, if you're not happy in imposing, as you portray it, a certain direction to councils, surely there's a role for the Government to bring all stakeholders together to try and come up with a more…

Welsh Conservatives Debate: Council-owned farms
Diolch yn fawr iawn. I really appreciate that, and it's good to hear reference to the farm of the new Plaid Cymru Member of Parliament for Caerfyrddin, but I just want to ask—

Welsh Conservatives Debate: Council-owned farms
Diolch, Lywydd. We'll be supporting the motion today because council-owned farms are, indeed, a vital part of the agricultural landscape, for many of the reasons that have already been outlined. It’s regrettable that it took about 180 seconds for it to become…

Debate on a Member's Legislative Proposal: A Bill relating to planning processes for quarry development
I rise to speak in favour of this motion, particularly on the buffer zones and for greater consideration of the well-being of future generations Act. Members here will know, I'm sure, because I've raised this before, that there are concerns about extending a…

Questions to the Cabinet Secretary for Social Justice, Trefnydd and Chief Whip
I know you're aware of the appalling statistic that was uncovered by the Child Poverty Action Group recently that 10,000 children, as we’ve heard, have fallen into poverty since Labour took power in Westminster just a few short months ago. That, of course, is…

Questions to the Cabinet Secretary for Transport and North Wales
Thank you for that. You'll be aware, of course, of the closures that we've seen in terms of access to NHS dental services across north Wales of late, and Dant-y-coed in Coedpoeth is the most recent of a long list, sadly. We have a situation now where a family…
