Questions to the First Minister
Thank you for response, First Minister, but the truth is that we are failing in our equality duties when it comes to healthcare. In the past week, we have had a report from the cross-party group on cancer, backed up by evidence from Cancer Research UK and…

Questions to the Minister for Social Justice and Chief Whip
Thank you for that answer, Minister. We certainly still have a long way to go if we are to create a more equal Wales. It is certainly not helped by extremists on the left and the right seeking to sow division between various groups. We have seen this play out…

The public health approach to preventing gender-based violence: evidence session 6
Thanks, Chair. My question is on online safety and social media. Extreme misogyny is often spread on social media and can influence the attitudes and behaviours of others. How can we better equip teachers to call out misogyny and challenge some of the…

Welsh Conservatives Debate: Additional learning needs
I wholeheartedly agree with Alun, really. Access to learning opportunities is a fundamental right that no-one should be excluded from. Research from NAHT Cymru has suggested that 94 per cent of school leaders in Wales believe the funding they are in receipt…
