Housing Ukrainian refugees - evidence session with the Minister for Social Justice
Thanks, Chair. Just broadening the points around the role of local authorities, I'm just interested to know what they're telling you at the moment are their areas of pressure in helping to deliver these schemes. What are they telling you in terms of their…

Housing Ukrainian refugees - evidence session with the Minister for Social Justice

Questions to the Minister for Finance and Local Government
Thank you, Minister, for your response and for outlining some of the actions that are already in plan. Clearly, this is not just a recent issue as well, or a single issue for one candidate. We saw, in May's elections, that paint was thrown over cars owned by…

Plaid Cymru Debate: The private rental sector
Not at all. I think it's a real aspiration for people to own their own homes, and I wouldn't want to be seen at all as holding people back from actually owning their own property, having that destiny in their own hands. I think that's a really important…
