Provisional Common Frameworks: Air Quality, and Chemicals and Pesticides—evidence session with the Minister for Climate Change
Can I just ask, then—? There's a bit of a plethora of groups and committees going on here. Can you tell us a bit about any sort of pressure that's putting on Welsh Government resource?

Provisional Common Frameworks: Air Quality, and Chemicals and Pesticides—evidence session with the Minister for Climate Change
Fine. Diolch yn fawr iawn. Delyth.
17 February 2022Climate Change, Environment, and Infrastructure Committee
Provisional Common Frameworks: Air Quality, and Chemicals and Pesticides—evidence session with the Minister for Climate Change
And, I'm sure, mindful of the fact that we would probably need a bit of time, sometime, to do that, because I know we're having to deal with so many at the moment, and I know it's because it's the start of this process, but it is very challenging for…
17 February 2022Climate Change, Environment, and Infrastructure Committee
Provisional Common Frameworks: Air Quality, and Chemicals and Pesticides—evidence session with the Minister for Climate Change
Okay, thank you. Can I ask, then, just in terms of this committee, and other Senedd committees as well, how you intend to keep us informed of the operation of the frameworks, in terms of looking forward, obviously, because they will be reviewed—they're going…
17 February 2022Climate Change, Environment, and Infrastructure Committee
Provisional Common Frameworks: Air Quality, and Chemicals and Pesticides—evidence session with the Minister for Climate Change
Janet—we're in a meeting, Janet. I would appreciate it if you actually listened to what the Minister has to tell us. It's your question next.

Provisional Common Frameworks: Air Quality, and Chemicals and Pesticides—evidence session with the Minister for Climate Change
Thank you. That's a positive start to the meeting, and I'm sure we'll go into detail during this session. So, we'll go to Janet next.
17 February 2022Climate Change, Environment, and Infrastructure Committee
Provisional Common Frameworks: Air Quality, and Chemicals and Pesticides—evidence session with the Minister for Climate Change
We move on, therefore, to the focus of this meeting, which is to take evidence from the Minister for Climate Change on the work of creating provisional common frameworks on air quality and chemicals and pesticides. And for those who are perhaps viewing this…

Introductions, apologies, substitutions and declarations of interest
Welcome, all, to the Climate Change, Environment and Infrastructure Committee at the Senedd. Welcome to all of you who are joining us. May I explain that this meeting is a bilingual one and there is simultaneous translation available from Welsh to English?…
16 February 2022Plenary
Welsh Conservatives Debate: Local Government funding
May I thank everyone who's contributed to the debate so far? I think it's a valuable debate, and I'm sure Mike must feel it's Christmas come early. He has a debate on PR and the funding of local government; you’d only need a debate on Swansea City AFC, and…
16 February 2022Plenary
Member Debate under Standing Order 11.21(iv): Local Government elections
The Act that allows the move to PR has been passed, I understand that, but the question I ask, and what I haven't heard from the Minister in her response, is: so, what's going to drive that change? Where is the incentive for councils to really tackle this…

Member Debate under Standing Order 11.21(iv): Local Government elections
Well, I can quote back to you the LSE, but I'll share the link with you, and it's pretty clear that the first claim often made is that the use of STV led to low turnout, and that's palpably untrue. So, I suppose it's lies, damned lies, and statistics on both…

Member Debate under Standing Order 11.21(iv): Local Government elections
Do I have time for an intervention, Llywydd?
16 February 2022Plenary
Member Debate under Standing Order 11.21(iv): Local Government elections
May I first of all thank everyone who has contributed to this debate? I am aware that the clock is against me, but I will try and respond to some of the points that haven't been covered. It's good to see that Gareth Davies has returned to the Chamber, having…
