Supporting people with chronic conditions: evidence session with ADSS Cymru and BASW Cymru
Thank you, Chair. I will ask my questions through the medium of Welsh. In terms of prevention plans for health and social care in Wales say a shift is needed towards a system that prioritises prevention and encourages healthy lifestyle choices. So, in your…

Very quickly, thank you, and hopefully everybody can hear the interpretation. On the point—Jacqueline noted the RPBs, and Fôn referred to pressures on local government. A question that's perhaps broader: do you think that this is a good thing that we have…

Topical Questions
I thank the Minister for that response. No decision has been made, according to her, but a recommendation has been made to close Dinas Dinlle and Welshpool, and that recommendation will come as a huge blow to the people of the north-west and mid Wales. In…

If I may move on to the next question, there’s been much mention in Wales over the past few months in preparation for the budget for the housing support grant, and the value of that when it comes to helping vulnerable people is evident. JJ, I think, mentioned…

Thank you. Does anyone else have a view on rent control?

Thank you. I'll be contributing in Welsh. What Steffan was saying just now has led on to my question. In the Green Paper, the Government has proposed looking at regulating rents. Steffan mentioned there one type of rent control. What's your view in general on…

Thank you. I'll ask in Welsh again. In terms of the Renting Homes (Wales) Act that we passed a few years ago, but that hasn't been introduced until recently, how do you think it's affected the members you represent in your organisations, and has it made a…

Statement by the Minister for Climate Change: Second Homes and Affordability
Finally, while efforts to promote affordable housing are commendable, it is essential to recognise the need for a significant expansion in Wales's social housing stock. The Welsh Government's target to build 20,000 new social homes during its present term is…

Statement by the Minister for Climate Change: Second Homes and Affordability
Thank you to the Minister for this update on an issue that is of national importance to us. I know that some have said that this is a local issue in terms of second homes, but they are wrong. Communities are being gentrified in many ways, and there are many…

Statement by the Deputy Minister for Social Services: Regional Integration Fund
I appreciate that the RIF is fixed up to March 2027, but its effectiveness has to be seen within the wider context of the Welsh Government's spending arrangements on primary and preventative care. I'd be grateful, therefore, if the Deputy Minister could…

Statement by the Deputy Minister for Social Services: Regional Integration Fund
Well, as we know, Wales has an ageing population. By 2031, almost a third of the Welsh population will be over 60 and 12 per cent over 75 years old, so the need to align health services more effectively with social care is clearly one of the core policy…

Statement by the Deputy Minister for Social Partnership: International Women’s Day
I want to start by expressing solidarity with the international battle for gender equality. I am firmly of the view that there is a responsibility for men to be allies. Indeed, as a loving father to two of the best girls I've ever seen, they have the right to…

Statement by the Minister for Climate Change: The Warm Homes Programme
So, while the support offered by the Welsh Government has been a welcome lifeline, the current situation is utterly unsustainable. A report by Care and Repair Cymru revealed that 96 per cent of households accessing Care and Repair's energy advice service were…

Statement by the Minister for Climate Change: The Warm Homes Programme
It's extremely concerning that the Government failed to implement the Warm Homes programme before the end of November despite the pledges made, leaving many vulnerable households in the cold during a period of cold weather before the winter. I've noted the…
