Plaid Cymru Debate: Transport for Wales
Like your daughter, many constituents come to me and say the same—that they've had such depressing experiences that they wouldn't use the train again. I continue to use the service, and I'm confident that things will improve, but we now truly need to put that…

Plaid Cymru Debate: Transport for Wales
Trains have been part of my life since I can remember, from making mud pies by the line that travelled right through the middle of my village, to travelling on the final train that used that line at the end of the 1960s, when the Beeching axe fell—a huge…

Statement by the Minister for Health and Social Services: Dental Reform
Thank you, Dirprwy Lywydd. I’m afraid the content of your statement doesn’t correspond in the very least with what I hear from patients and dentists in the Arfon constituency. According to a survey of dentists across the north of Wales, 88 per cent believe…

Statement by the Minister for Health and Social Services: Escalation and further intervention to improve the quality of services in Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board
We've been here before, of course, but the major, necessary changes were not introduced, and, indeed, poor decisions were made in the previous time in special measures. The board was in special measures when the vascular service in Ysbyty Gwynedd was…

Questions to the First Minister
I was extremely disappointed to hear that the UK Government had rejected the bid for £15 million towards this important project. Once again, we see the Tories ignoring Bangor and showing just how little they care about the people of Arfon and the north-west…
