Gynaecological cancers: Panel 6
Thank you very much for coming in this morning. I'll ask a few questions in Welsh. Following on from that point, I'll come straight to you. I wanted to ask about your evaluation—not Andy Glyde's, which we've heard already—of the state of medical research and…

—I just know we want to come on to screening. I didn't want to take somebody else's questions.

And sorry for interrupting you—

Gynaecological cancers: Panel 5 - Public Health Wales
I think that's very, very useful, and I think I'd be keen to see us as a committee making recommendations to invest properly in expanding that prevention agenda. And diabetes is one that we touched on in the Senedd yesterday, of course, with the statement…

But there are wider cancers as well, of course.

Gynaecological cancers: Panel 5 - Public Health Wales
If we can just come back to the messaging and the prevention, how do you try to make sure that the conversations take place in primary care between an advanced nurse practitioner, or a general practitioner and their patients, to try to make sure that the…

Can I just stop you there for a second, because I know the next block of questions are going to be around screening?
, Health and Social Care Committee
Gynaecological cancers: Panel 5 - Public Health Wales
What are the key work streams that you have to try to ensure that cancer prevention is improved and the work that primary care does in cancer prevention is improved?
, Health and Social Care Committee
Gynaecological cancers: Panel 5 - Public Health Wales
Yes, with a question, if I could, which sort of ties up the earlier points we were talking about about the role of primary care and the preventative agenda and lifestyle factors that Jack was referring to. What work are you doing to help primary care do that…

Gynaecological cancers: Panel 5 - Public Health Wales
Okay, thank you.
, Health and Social Care Committee
Gynaecological cancers: Panel 5 - Public Health Wales
I'll ask the question in a different way. Do we need to be messaging better so that people can make that informed choice in a more informed way?
, Health and Social Care Committee
Gynaecological cancers: Panel 5 - Public Health Wales
But the individual can't make the choice unless the messaging, the information that they're given, is clear enough, is laid out clearly enough in front of them, and my question is is that messaging clear enough. There might be something with some small print…
, Health and Social Care Committee
Gynaecological cancers: Panel 5 - Public Health Wales
Yes. With your permission, Chair, I think it might be an idea to bring the couple of questions that I wanted to ask forward to here, because they follow on directly from what we've heard already. On consistency of messaging, first of all, if you're looking at…

Statement by the Minister for Health and Social Services: Quality Statement for Diabetes
Thank you to the Minister for her statement. I welcome much of what we've heard from the Minister today. There are questions as to how appropriate quality statements are in and of themselves in making a difference. What we'll be looking at now is, what…

, Health and Social Care Committee
Group 11: Scrutiny procedure for regulations under section 10A(1) (Amendments 27, 29, 13)
It is a matter of concern, isn't it, when we hear Ministers saying how we've got to plough ahead with this because we've got to do it quick, because of the fear that quick legislation can be poor legislation. It's about managing risk here; they say if you're…

Group 11: Scrutiny procedure for regulations under section 10A(1) (Amendments 27, 29, 13)
Thank you very much, Chair. This is the last group in which I have amendments before us today. Amendment 27 is technical in nature, the lead amendment in this group. Amendment 29 is the more substantial amendment, with the intention of ensuring that…
