Questions to the First Minister
It's always helpful when you give such full answers, First Minister, because you just took my third question—[Laughter.]—which was about the extension of the timetable, on a serious point, because obviously, that timetable has been extended once. It's…

Questions to the First Minister
The individual development plans that you allude to, which are supported on this side of the Chamber, because, obviously, they tailor it to the individual learner—. We all, as MSs and before that, AMs, appreciate the postbag that comes in around statementing…

Questions to the First Minister
Thank you, Presiding Officer. First Minister, I agree with the sentiments that you've just expressed in responding to questioners in the last question, that no young person should be left behind and that we should be trying to unlock everyone's talent…

Questions to the First Minister
Thank you, First Minister, for that answer. I genuinely am not trying to trip you up, and I'm grateful for the one sentence that you put in that response, which is that what was required of you was presented in time. I think that that will be very helpful for…

Questions to the First Minister
So, for clarity, First Minister, the documentation that has been requested from the inquiry and the paperwork and other evidence that is required has been submitted on time, and actually the blame for non-disclosure is with the inquiry rather than the Welsh…

Questions to the First Minister
Thank you, Presiding Officer. Last week, First Minister, the COVID-19 Bereaved Families for Justice Cymru issued a damning statement, in fairness, assessing the engagement so far the Welsh Government has had with the UK-wide COVID inquiry. Now, from these…

Questions to the First Minister
I can hear the Deputy Minister for transport chuntering away, but he's said many a time he doesn't know what he's doing, and on this particular issue I'd agree as well that he doesn't know what he's doing. It cannot be right that measures that are put in…

Questions to the First Minister
It certainly will be shared across this Chamber, First Minister, because we shouldn't be conflating the two issues; we should be doing all we can—[Interruption.] We should be doing all we can to support those who need help and the state to intervene to…

Questions to the First Minister
The points I put to you, First Minister, were around specific areas of the NHS that the chair of the BMA highlighted as not being functional and people not seeing the results that they require when they engage with the NHS. Surely it should be a priority for…

Questions to the First Minister
Thank you, Presiding Officer. First Minister, the chair of the British Medical Association came out over the weekend and said that the NHS in Wales is not functional. That would cause a deep amount of concern amongst people wherever they rely on the health…

Questions to the First Minister
First Minister, my question was relatively straightforward: why didn't the Welsh Government offer the support when it was requested back last September? I've used two of my three questions and I don't feel that we've advanced any further forward in trying to…

Questions to the First Minister
I don't believe that was the point that the chairman was making in his opinion piece. Bear in mind, this was a chairman who was a former chief constable, had served the public for 30 years plus, and then chose to do another public service role by being chair…

Questions to the First Minister
Thank you, Presiding Officer. First Minister, last week, the former chairman of the Betsi Cadwaldr University Health Board wrote an opinion piece for the press. He's also written to you, to which he says he hasn't had a response; he might have, by the time…

Debate: The Estyn Annual Report 2021-22
I'm grateful for the Minister taking an intervention. We heard from the Member from Islwyn about the tragedy in England, obviously, with the headteacher taking her life. What discussions have you had with the Welsh inspectorate to make sure that there is that…

Questions to the First Minister
When it comes to cladding, you don't make the decisions to benefit people who are in tinder boxes and frightened to go to sleep at night. And when it comes to business rates, you won't bring the tapering relief that's available in other parts of the United…

Questions to the First Minister
'Actual delivery', I hear your backbenchers saying. What people want to know is: will there be a universal childcare offer for one and two-year-olds that will capture people that do not benefit from that 30 hours of free childcare? You actually have the money…
, Plenary
Questions to the First Minister
First Minister, it was a simple question: are you going to bring a provision forward for one and two-year-olds here in Wales? You're getting the consequentials for the moneys that are being spent in England. It is a realistic proposition that people want to…
, Plenary
Questions to the First Minister
Thank you, Presiding Officer. Last week, First Minister, the Chancellor presented his budget. A centrepiece of that budget was the childcare offer that will be exclusive to England, because, obviously, those powers and responsibilities reside here in the…

Questions to the Minister for Education and Welsh Language
You and I can debate the merits of the free-school-dinners policy that the Government have brought forward, but what is important is to understand how local authorities and schools in particular have been supported in rolling out this policy. The Vale of…

Questions to the Minister for Climate Change
I couldn't concur more with the sentiments expressed by you and the previous questioner about the amount of litter that's available to be witnessed on highways and railways, especially in South Wales Central. On the link road coming off Culverhouse Cross…

Questions to the First Minister
First Minister, you said that a Government Minister has not said that and doesn't support it. I gave you a direct quote of what the Deputy Minister said. That is a matter of fact. It is a matter of record, and people will see what the Minister said in the…

Questions to the First Minister
I'm pleased that you clarified what the Government's view is on what the RCN stands for—it is a view that I have—and also I declare an interest in having family members who are members of the Royal College of Nursing, a dedicated professional body of people…
