Craffu ar waith Gweinidogion – Y Gweinidog Materion Gwledig a Gogledd Cymru, a’r Trefnydd
Thank you, Chair. Good morning, Minister. I've got some questions around the UK-New Zealand free trade agreement. Firstly, if you could discuss the likely impact of that trade agreement on the agri-food sector in Wales, thinking about risks and opportunities…

Thank you, Chair. Good morning to you both. We as a committee have heard that diversification of potential markets is the cornerstone of New Zealand's agricultural trade policy, to ensure that they don't, of course, become more reliant on any one market. So…

Thank you. If I can just quickly go back to Jackie and ask if there's anything that you want to add around how easy or difficult it has been for rural households to take up the cost-of-living support that's been provided so far.

Diolch, Chair. Thank you, panel. Thank you for your time this afternoon. I'm interested in your views about how effective the cost-of-living support already announced by the Welsh and UK Governments is likely to be in supporting rural communities within…

Costau Byw - Busnesau
Thank you. I'm really conscious of time, but your evidence there, Leighton, has brought to mind a specific question that several businesses in my constituency have been asking me about, so if I could, just very quickly, go round all three of you and ask: do…

Thank you. It's refreshing to hear the good-news stories as well. So, my follow-up question, then, is to ask what support you'd like to see introduced by the Welsh and UK Governments to assist those individual sectors that are particularly affected by the…

Thank you, panel, and, Chair, I'm conscious of time and I don't want to stray into the next set of questions on the cost-of-living support scheme either. I think the answers so far have been thorough enough to cover what would have been my supplementary on…

Thanks, Steffan. And my next question is going to be looking at the different groups, so maybe I'll come back to you then and we can expand on that issue of harder-to-reach groups and getting the money out there. Deborah.
