Thank you. I just thought it would be nice to finish on a high. [Laughter.]

Annual scrutiny of operation of interim environmental protection measures - evidence session with the Interim Environmental Protection Assessor for Wales
The final question is this: you gave some advice to Natural Resources Wales that resulted in them introducing a public register and they created a regional advisory committee as a sub-body of their land management committee after you gave submissions to them…

Annual scrutiny of operation of interim environmental protection measures - evidence session with the Interim Environmental Protection Assessor for Wales
So, in terms of that you've mentioned legal particularly, and we've done many inquiries where we're being told that that's a very scarce resource anyway in Wales, and you're up against it in trying to manage even to get anyone legal to work with you, how much…

Annual scrutiny of operation of interim environmental protection measures - evidence session with the Interim Environmental Protection Assessor for Wales
Good morning. I just would like to ask, you've got the additional staff that you've got, and they're very welcome to you, I'm sure, and they'd be welcome to us too, but the question would be: would you have liked to have seen any other resource changes, apart…

Health and Social Care (Wales) Bill: evidence session with Care Inspectorate Wales and Social Care Wales
I think that's it.
17 July 2024 , Health and Social Care Committee
Health and Social Care (Wales) Bill: evidence session with Care Inspectorate Wales and Social Care Wales
I'm going to talk about the fact that the Bill places a duty to submit and publish annual returns on service providers themselves, rather than Care Inspectorate Wales—yourself—and it makes failure to publish them an offence. What are your views on those…

Health and Social Care (Wales) Bill: evidence session with the Minister for Social Care
Okay, thank you.

Health and Social Care (Wales) Bill: evidence session with the Minister for Social Care
And finally from me, it says that health board representatives told us that there is no performance framework for CHC, as it’s being revised, and it’s critical with metrics to capture and measure progress and success. So, can you give us some assurances when…
17 July 2024 , Health and Social Care Committee
Health and Social Care (Wales) Bill: evidence session with the Minister for Social Care
Also, going back to issues with continuing healthcare, there is a review—. Under the current CHC framework that became operational as of 1 April 2022, five years later, there would be a review, which will take place in 2026-27. There is an ask, would it not…

Health and Social Care (Wales) Bill: evidence session with the Minister for Social Care
Okay—. Sorry.
17 July 2024 , Health and Social Care Committee
Health and Social Care (Wales) Bill: evidence session with the Minister for Social Care
We've heard of the need that they are supported through the system, and you've described it as being quite complex in some cases, and feel that the Bill would be strengthened if people had a clear right to support, rather than—. And that it would strengthen…

Health and Social Care (Wales) Bill: evidence session with the Minister for Social Care
I want to move on now, and again, I'm talking specifically about disabled people.

Health and Social Care (Wales) Bill: evidence session with the Minister for Social Care
No, it's—
17 July 2024 , Health and Social Care Committee
Health and Social Care (Wales) Bill: evidence session with the Minister for Social Care
Yes, but the issue is, having met it all and the system's been put in place, their concerns are that they can't manage it, and they might want to revert back to the local authority providing it, rather than an individual. I think your—
17 July 2024 , Health and Social Care Committee
Health and Social Care (Wales) Bill: evidence session with the Minister for Social Care
Moving on from what you’ve just said, we’ve heard from disabled people and stakeholders on their behalf that what they would want in that choice is the right to return. So, should they decide to be a recipient of direct payments in a personal capacity, but…

Health and Social Care (Wales) Bill: evidence session with the Minister for Social Care

Health and Social Care (Wales) Bill: evidence session with the Minister for Social Care
