Okay. Emily.

Joint Fisheries Statement - Environmental Groups
Can I just ask more broadly about partnership working and how successful it's been? Perhaps you'd like to elaborate on that, on what you said. Perhaps Emily or Gareth, I don't mind.

Okay. I think that's fine, Chair.
, Economy, Trade, and Rural Affairs Committee
Joint Fisheries Statement - Fisheries sector
Okay. That's really helpful and does flesh out your earlier answer a bit more. Trevor, did you want to add anything to that, or are you happy with what was said?
, Economy, Trade, and Rural Affairs Committee
Joint Fisheries Statement - Fisheries sector
I think that largely answers my question, because I was going to ask about the quality of partnership working with the Welsh Government. I wonder if there's anything else to be said there. Does the JFS suggest that that will be enhanced in the future? I…

Minister for Rural Affairs and North Wales, and Trefnydd - Joint Fisheries Statement
Diolch, Gadeirydd. That was such a thorough answer that I've got no more questions.

Are you going to sitting by the computer waiting for it to refresh? [Laughter.]

Minister for Rural Affairs and North Wales, and Trefnydd - Joint Fisheries Statement
Diolch, Gadeirydd. Can I ask the Minister for further information on the co-ordinated programme of data collection, including, particularly, the planned use of vessel monitoring systems and, importantly, remote electronic monitoring?

One day inquiry on International Relations: Sports, culture and arts (international)
Thank you, Chair. May I ask questions to Eluned, please? I don't know whether you have covered this already this morning, but could you give us an overview of the key objectives and deliverables expected of Wales Arts International as part of the three-year…

Okay, that was pretty comprehensive. Jenny or Charles, have you got anything to add to that? Do you want to add anything? No, okay, that's fine. Chair.

That reflects what you were saying earlier, so that's really good to see that consistency. Does anybody else want to add to that? Susie, did you want to say something—Claire mentioned you?

One day inquiry on International Relations: Diaspora and international
That's really helpful, thank you, and it does certainly chime with our experience as a committee. Just one other question: with that difficulty in mind, do you feel that there are things that could be added and developed in an international strategy that…
, Culture, Communications, Welsh Language, Sport, and International Relations Committee
One day inquiry on International Relations: Diaspora and international
Yes. And, counterintuitively, we're finding the same as a committee—that it's harder to pin down the First Minister than it would be a dedicated Minister, to be truthful with you. So, anybody else want to make a comment on that, or are you happy for Susie's…

Aren't they the best questions?

One day inquiry on International Relations: Diaspora and international
Sorry, I've just unmuted and muted myself. I just want to take a step back to something that was said earlier with regard to ministerial responsibility. I understand the First Minister has taken responsibility directly for international strategy. Has that not…

Member Debate under Standing Order 11.21(iv): Public transport in rural areas
Yes, absolutely, I agree. And I think I'm more offended by the fact that you're younger than me than anything else. Yes, I do think it was a missed opportunity—absolutely, it was. I think that Government between 1997 and 2007 did some fantastic things, but…

Member Debate under Standing Order 11.21(iv): Public transport in rural areas
I don't think the purpose of an individual's Member's debate should always be to demonstrate unanimity amongst backbenchers across the Chamber, because there are always going to be differences between individuals. I make no apologies to James Evans for…

Questions to the Minister for Climate Change
That funding is very welcome. I've seen throughout the constituency, and, indeed, the borough, the impact that that has made, most recently in Cwm Calon, where the cycle path has been opened for the first time and is very welcomed by residents. However, I'd…

Welsh Government Draft Budget 2022-23: Evidence session with the Minister for Economy
Can I just say very quickly, Chair, I agree with that. I had my hair cut on Monday in a local business, and that's how I found out, and we arranged a round-table very quickly on the basis of that, actually. But the concern they've got is—. One of the people I…
