Business Statement and Announcement
Leader of the house, is it possible to have a statement from the Minister for health in relation to the winter preparedness for the Welsh NHS? All NHSs across the UK come under severe pressure during that particular festive period. Many of us are enjoying the…

Questions to the First Minister
First Minister, you do not have an independent adviser to look into these type of things. You are, though, ultimately the arbitrator on the ministerial code. It is important to understand the timelines, terms of reference and who that independent person might…

Questions to the First Minister
I'm grateful to you for making that known today, and I look forward to the outcome of that investigation. Can you confirm the timelines for that investigation, and will it report before Christmas?

Questions to the First Minister
Thank you, Presiding Officer. Could I, first of all, as this is the last session before Christmas, wish everyone the compliments of the season? And, hopefully, they'll have a happy family Christmas and a prosperous new year as well. First Minister, yesterday…

Welsh Conservatives Debate: Road freight transport strategy
I'm grateful to you for taking the intervention. If Brexit is the problem over the shortage of HGV drivers, why has Poland got 150,000 vacancies for HGV drivers? Why has France got 40,000 vacancies? A quick Google search shows this, so you clearly can't blame…

Questions to the Minister for Finance and Local Government
Thank you for that answer, Minister. When the last Labour Government undertook revaluation back in 2004 here in Wales, there were significant transition measures put in place for properties that found themselves moving up the bands considerably during that…

Point of Order
Thank you, Presiding Officer. In First Minister's questions, the Member for Mid and West Wales, who isn't in her place now, alluded to a written question that I'd put for answer from the Welsh Government about homelessness and people deliberately making…

Questions to the First Minister
With respect, First Minister, those aren't my comments about 'food for thought' about what needs to be done differently. They are the director of the PISA examination system's comments, not mine as a politician, and I am not trying to disparage the pupils who…
, Plenary
Questions to the First Minister
First Minister, I deliberately highlighted the COVID pandemic and highlighted the point about it being a global pandemic. In the UK, these are the steepest declines in PISA rankings and ratings of any component part of the United Kingdom. The director of the…

Questions to the First Minister
Thank you very much, Presiding Officer. If I may extend my thoughts with the community of Aberfan, which is going through an incident at the moment. I'll go no further on that, because obviously it's unfolding, as we speak. But I'm sure everyone's thoughts…

Questions to the First Minister
First Minister, a report was undertaken into maternity services in the Swansea health board area back in 2019 by the health inspectorate. Many of those recommendations are still to be implemented, and now we're coming to the end of 2023. I asked a very clear…

Questions to the First Minister
I'm assuming, First Minister, the people you're referring to are Welsh Government officials who obviously provided this family, the Channon family, with the information in the first place and that's what's led to this confusion. But it is a fact that…

Questions to the First Minister
Thank you very much, Deputy Presiding Officer. First Minister, last week my colleague Russell George raised with the health Minister concerns about the Swansea health board area’s maternity services. Sadly, we didn't get the answers that we thought we were…

Questions to the Minister for Health and Social Services
Thank you, Minister. Two weeks ago, you gave a statement in response to a topical question around the pressures at the University Hospital of Wales's A&E department, where a 'black incident', I think it was called, which is the major escalation policy that…

Questions to the Minister for Economy
I genuinely don't have a vote in the Labour leadership bid that's coming up, Minister—[Laughter.]—but it is nice to see you here today, because I didn't see you yesterday. Minister, I recently visited the Aberthaw power station, or the former power station at…

Questions to the First Minister
And we share that ambition about eradicating bovine TB, and I commend the work of the Minister and her officials to do that, but, when you see such comments, and the comments ended with the words 'they need to find another business', what can people think and…

Questions to the First Minister
That's very pleasing to hear, First Minister, but would you agree with me that it is regrettable that that proposition was put forward? Because if someone was accused, because of the colour of their skin or their religion, that they had to move from a…
