Grŵp 8: Comisiynydd Safonau y Senedd: cymhwystra (Gwelliannau 27, 52, 28, 53)
Thank you again, Chair. As you say, group 8 relates to the Senedd Commissioner for Standards, and particularly the eligibility of persons in that role. My amendment 27 is linked to amendment 30 in the previous group. This amendment would alter the National…

Thank you, Chair. I'm grateful to all Members who have engaged in the amendments and discussed those here this morning. There is clearly a broad consensus about what's trying to be achieved with the amendments that have been laid by Members from across the…

My amendment 26 goes alongside amendment 25 as it removes the section related to the Standards of Conduct Committee on the face of the Bill as it stands. My amendment 29 would ensure that Schedule 1B relating to disqualification of persons from being lay…

Thank you. Chair, as you mentioned, group 7 refers to the Standards of Conduct Committee within this legislation. My lead amendment 25 strengthens the independence and transparency of the committee. It ensures that certain office holders, including the First…

Grŵp 6: Adolygu a dehongli Rhan 1 (Gwelliannau 24, 1)
Thank you, Chair. I think it's just a general principle again about strengthening the legislation. I hear the Counsel General's comments that the Senedd should be mindful of a report produced elsewhere. What I'm trying to do is ensure that a report is…

Grŵp 6: Adolygu a dehongli Rhan 1 (Gwelliannau 24, 1)
Thank you, Chair. Group 6 is the review and interpretation of Part 1, and my amendment 24, I believe, ensures transparency and accountability in the operation of the recall mechanism. It requires Ministers to report on the operation and effect of the recall…

Okay. Well, I'll wait for the question.

Grŵp 5: Cylch gorchwyl y Bwrdd Rheoli Etholiadol (Gwelliannau 23, 55)
But would that allow amendment 55 to continue?

Grŵp 5: Cylch gorchwyl y Bwrdd Rheoli Etholiadol (Gwelliannau 23, 55)
Yes, thank you, Chair. I certainly wouldn't disagree with the comments by Joyce Watson and I'm also open to the comments by the Counsel General. So, I'm just thinking, procedurally, Chair, because my amendment is the lead amendment, there's no—

Grŵp 5: Cylch gorchwyl y Bwrdd Rheoli Etholiadol (Gwelliannau 23, 55)
Thank you, Chair. I will move amendment 23. In group 5, on the remit of the electoral management board, the two amendments that are in there—mine and that led by Lesley Griffiths—I think probably are trying to seek to achieve the same outcome. We're probably…

Grŵp 3: Rheoliadau ynghylch polau adalw (Gwelliannau 21, 22)
Thank you, Chair. I note the Counsel General's comments on amendment 21, and I can understand the reasons given. I still think it strengthens the Bill if there's a 'must' there. Because whilst I understand that the practical outcomes would be the same, I…

Grŵp 3: Rheoliadau ynghylch polau adalw (Gwelliannau 21, 22)
Thank you, Chair. Group 3, regulations about recall polls, refers to section 11 of the Bill as laid, and section 11 provides Welsh Ministers with the power to make regulations governing how recall polls will operate in practice. These, of course, are not just…

Thank you, Chair. I think, broadly, the amendments laid by colleagues and myself are seeking to achieve the same outcomes. But I will speak specifically to the amendments I've laid as they are. Amendment 18 makes it mandatory for Welsh Ministers to issue…
