Inquiry into the provision of sites for Gypsy, Roma and Travellers—evidence session 5: Minister for Social Justice
Well, thank you very much for that response. Forgive me, I'm no clearer. I agree with you that you say that the Government has committed entirely to eradicating racism and helping Gypsy, Roma and Traveller communities—I don't think there's a doubt about that…

Inquiry into the provision of sites for Gypsy, Roma and Travellers—evidence session 5: Minister for Social Justice
I'm going to be speaking in Welsh. Thank you to the three of you for giving of your time this morning—we're very grateful to you for coming here. You said just now, Minister, that you believe that the Gypsy, Roma and Traveller community will be confident now…

Questions to the Minister for Economy
I thank the Minister for that response. Now, anyone who follows the story of the nuclear sector in this country—and I do in detail—will know that Rolls-Royce is the only option considered by the Westminster Government to develop small nuclear modular…

Statement by the Minister for Social Justice: Cost-of-living Update
I and Plaid Cymru have raised the link between the cost-of-living crisis and the cost of housing a number of times on the floor of the Senedd, and the link is clear. We've seen the cost of rental going up very much here in Wales, an increase of 12 or 13 per…

Business Statement and Announcement
Diolch yn fawr iawn, Dirprwy Lywydd. I welcome the statement made by the First Minister about an hour ago, saying that we should expect a statement on building safety before the end of the month—we need some clarity exactly when on that. It is disappointing…

Questions to the First Minister
I thank Jenny Rathbone for the question. We've heard Governments many times talking about encouraging owners to retrofit or to use renewable means of producing energy, such as solar panels on their homes. But, for many of my constituents in Dwyfor…

Sorry, anything to add from Daniel and Tim?

Inquiry into the provision of sites for Gypsy, Roma and Travellers: evidence session 4
Okay. Can you share some of that with us later on if you've got any links or anything like that you can share with us quickly, because I'd certainly be interested in seeing some of the best practice? Diolch.

Can I just ask you then, Naomi, sorry: good practice, such as where?

Inquiry into the provision of sites for Gypsy, Roma and Travellers: evidence session 4
Okay, thank you. Well, if I can ask one further question, Chair, you, Naomi, were speaking there about the need to identify need and understand and communicate with Gypsy, Roma and Traveller communities. The evidence that I've, certainly, heard, and that…

Inquiry into the provision of sites for Gypsy, Roma and Travellers: evidence session 4
Thank you. I know you're not here to represent the political element of local authorities and local government, but the regulations have existed for years now to ensure that there are sufficient transit sites and permanent sites for Travellers, Gypsies and…

The discussion about the planning element is very interesting, but I want to focus a little bit at the beginning—. But let me just check that the interpretation is working. Is it working for everyone? I see that it is. Excellent. To begin with, do you believe…

Papers to note
Just to come in on the letter on building safety, I know that we have a very busy programme of work and there's a lack of time for us as a committee in general to do all of the work that we do want to do, and we do have the forward work programme. I've raised…

Thank you very much. The youth forum sounds very interesting, and the good work in Pembrokeshire. If there's more evidence about that that we could have, it would enrich our understanding. So, perhaps there'll be an opportunity in due course for us to have…

Thank you. Dafydd there has mentioned the importance of engagement, and Carl and Pam have talked quite a bit about that during their evidence so far. The evidence that we've received in our committee or on site visits strongly suggests that the Roma, Gypsy…
