Statement by the Deputy First Minister and Cabinet Secretary for Climate Change and Rural Affairs: Flooding—Preparing for winter
Cabinet Secretary, can I just also add my voice to the various comments that have been made, particularly about the impact flooding has had on communities, and particularly the mental health in those communities? As you know, in February 2020, Pontypridd, a…

Okay.
, Equality and Social Justice Committee
Disability and employment: evidence session 2
Thank you. You’ve provided quite a bit of information already about the area of questions that I wanted to look into, which is really around data—the type of data we have. And, of course, all the actions we want to take, and the policies we wish to develop…

I think you've answered the main thing. If there was one specific recommendation in terms of data that you would want us to take on board, what would it be?
, Equality and Social Justice Committee
Disability and employment: evidence session 1
Thank you for the evidence you've been giving. There were a few questions I was going to ask around the issue of data monitoring, disaggregated data, the disability disparity evidence unit and so on. You've touched on them in most of your questions and the…

The Foundational Economy - Panel 2
Thank you. Just really a couple of questions. Matthew, it's very clear that the co-operative model is fundamentally important to the longer term development, and also the thing about empowerment. But I suppose my question really probably is more fairly…

The Foundational Economy - Panel 2
Just a very simple question. It seems to me that what's been said is that local government and community local government are almost the most appropriate frameworks within which some of these developments can take place. Is that right? Is that your experience?
, Economy, Trade, and Rural Affairs Committee
The Foundational Economy - Panel 1
Thank you for that. I’ll just move on to the second point I wanted to ask, and it’s an area I’m again not clear about myself. This is really directed towards Professor Williams. You called for the Welsh Government to fund autonomous skunkworks projects that…

The Foundational Economy - Panel 1
Thank you. Listen, two short questions. There were a number of things I wanted to ask you that I think you've already covered. This one first of all: we have two pieces of legislation that have been passed—one is the Well-being of Future Generations (Wales)…
, Economy, Trade, and Rural Affairs Committee
The Foundational Economy - Panel 1
Yes. Can I just ask—? I'm quite new to this, but one of the points that comes out of nearly all the papers and evidence that we've seen is, firstly, a total lack of clarity, et cetera. There's an attempt to then sort of fit into a one-size-fits-all, as…
