Yes, I'm—. Rhys, yes.

It's a marker in the sand.
, Petitions Committee
New Petitions
Okay, thank you. Luke.
, Petitions Committee
New Petitions
I'm going to come to that.
, Petitions Committee
New Petitions
Yes, excellent. Thanks. Yes, and it's a very live issue. And, I think, in terms of keeping that open and awaiting what's being produced at the moment, that would be the right course of action, and it's also a very important matter to come to this committee…
, Petitions Committee
New Petitions
Thank you very much. And what an interesting petition, so thank you, again, to Manon. And our course of action will be to write, for that clarification, to the Minister to assess what is happening in this regard. Moving on, we're going to go to item 3.14…
, Petitions Committee
New Petitions
Thank you very much. I know that Rhys wants to come in, but I would like to thank Manon very much for this petition before I invite him to comment. I was just going to state that I presume—and I don't know if Rhys has any more information on this—but the…
, Petitions Committee
New Petitions
Thank you very much, both, for those comments, and I would agree in entirety. Obviously, we've not mentioned those with disabilities, and the social isolation element, I think, is really, really important. So, we will do that, and we will write, as we've just…

New Petitions
Diolch yn fawr ichi. I absolutely think that's a good course of action, and I'd also like to thank those who signed the petition, and the Wales Seniors Forum, for their proactivity in this area. And so, we will write to the Welsh Government and ask for…
, Petitions Committee
New Petitions
Thank you very much. I think we are saying, then, to close the petition, in the comments that have just been made, but to write to NRW to make contact with the petitioners to locally correspond on this matter. Are we all content with that as an action? Thank…
, Petitions Committee
New Petitions
Thank you. And no further comments—no. Thank you very much, Luke. We will adopt that same approach in terms of the previous petition. Thank you. We're going to move on to 3.11, P-06-1449, 'Designate the Tywi Valley as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty…

New Petitions
Obviously, in terms of this, it's about 'Cymru' and the word 'Wales', but I understand where you're going with that. Are there any other comments before I move on to the grouped petition? No. Thank you very much, Luke, and we will do that. Item 3.10…
, Petitions Committee
New Petitions
So, in terms of what you’ve just said, Luke, are you saying that you would like the committee to write to the Llywydd in this regard to explore the issues that this petition has brought forth?
, Petitions Committee
New Petitions
Thank you very much, and I’m content to close the petition, but I do think this committee should be updated if there is to be any strengthening under the considerations that are currently taking place. So, perhaps we could ask for that to come to this…
, Petitions Committee
New Petitions
Thank you. I don't know if there are any comments from other members. I would agree that this is wider, but obviously specific with regard to music venues, but obviously NHS staff on shift work or others in the private sector on shift work also. I think, yes…
, Petitions Committee
New Petitions
They may.
, Petitions Committee
New Petitions
Of course, yes.
, Petitions Committee
New Petitions
Thank you very much. If there are no further comments, we as a committee will close this petition and again thank the petitioner for submitting this to this committee. Item 3.6 is petition P-06-1439, 'Improve vital late night public transport infrastructure…
, Petitions Committee
New Petitions
Diolch yn fawr. And if there are no further comments before I move on to the grouped petition, we're going to close the petition and thank the petitioner and those who've submitted their signatures to this place. Item 3.5, P-06-1438, 'Start a public enquiry…

New Petitions
Three point four; it would be very useful. Thank you, Rhys.
, Petitions Committee
New Petitions
So, I'm going to take the first petition first, as an entirety, and then I'm going to move separately on to the second one. So, if you can speak to three point—let me double check—
, Petitions Committee
New Petitions
Yes. The mechanism as well, I think, will be important. Okay, thank you, and thanks again to the petitioners. We're going to go on to the next item, which I'm going to group together. They are two petitions with a contrary view. So, we'll start off with item…
, Petitions Committee
New Petitions
Okay. Diolch yn fawr. I think that the will of the committee is quite clear, in terms of both writing to the health board, in terms of what Peter Fox has stated, and also Luke, in terms of acknowledging this petition, by writing to Welsh Government. Gareth…
, Petitions Committee
New Petitions
Thank you very much. Before I bring Luke in, I think we may have members of the petition in the public gallery, so, welcome—croeso—to the Senedd, and thank you very much for the time and effort that you have put in to this petition, to get it to this stage…
, Petitions Committee
New Petitions
Diolch. Any other comments? No. Thank you. I think that's a sound way forward in terms of that being made available to local Members in terms of their direction of travel on this important issue. So, we are recommending that we close this petition and take…
