Supporting people with chronic conditions: evidence session with ADSS Cymru and BASW Cymru
Jacqueline, you were looking like you wanted to comment on the last question, but do you want to comment on this question and the previous question as well?

I should say as well we're not expecting every witness here to answer every question, just whoever thinks they're the most appropriate. Fôn Roberts.

Sorry for that, again. I think some Members might want to come in and pick up on some of what you were saying in some of their questions, as well. Thank you, Sarah. Gareth Davies.

I did interrupt you, Jacqueline; is there anything else you wanted to just finish with briefly?

Supporting people with chronic conditions: evidence session with ADSS Cymru and BASW Cymru
I'm so sorry, Jacqueline, but I'm just conscious of time a bit. Thank you so much for your detailed answers. It's so frustrating, but we've got quite a few other areas to go through as well. Sorry, Jacqueline. Sarah, are there any other pressing questions you…

Sarah, did you want to come in at all?

Does anybody else want to come in on that opening question?

In that case, I move to item 2. Item 2 is our fourth evidence session, to inform the next phase of our work on our chronic conditions inquiry. We have three witnesses attending committee this morning—all virtually. So, I'd be grateful if you could introduce…

Introductions, apologies, substitutions, and declarations of interest
Bore da. Croeso, bawb. Welcome to the Health and Social Care Committee this morning. As always, we operate bilingually, in Cymraeg and in English. Today, we have some Members and witnesses attending virtually, and some here on the Senedd estate. We'll move to…

Topical Questions
I think it's an understatement, Minister, to say I'm disappointed with the chief ambulance commissioner's final report that was made public today. Closing Welshpool and Caernarfon bases cannot be an option. It is entirely unacceptable, and I certainly hope…

Questions to the Minister for Education and the Welsh Language
Minister, my question is very much in the same vein as Delyth Jewell's question. So, my concern with the current learner travel Measure as it stands currently is, of course, that there are many children who do not receive free transport to their nearest…

Topical Questions
Thank you for your answer, Minister. I also thank the Presiding Officer for allowing this topical question today. This week, both the Welsh consultants and SAS doctors have voted overwhelmingly to take strike action over pay. This follows, of course, two…

Welsh Conservatives Debate: Sustainable Farming Scheme
Thank you. The debate today, and the frustration outside, is about the sustainable farming scheme, TB and NVZs. That's what the debate is about today. You are trying to shift responsibility away from your responsibilities here. Surely, stick to what is the…

Welsh Conservatives Debate: Sustainable Farming Scheme
Just because a Minister says they're listening does not mean that they are listening. Because we didn't see that happen with nitrate vulnerable zones, we didn't see that happen with bovine TB and we're not seeing that happening now with the sustainable…

Welsh Conservatives Debate: Sustainable Farming Scheme
I think, Huw, you are deliberately trying to misunderstand the point I'm making. Surely we must be making sure that the food that we are producing we eat locally. Of course we should. And of course we can export beyond Wales as well; that's exactly what we…

Welsh Conservatives Debate: Sustainable Farming Scheme
For those of us Members who went outside today and stood with the farmers and rural communities, we saw the strength of frustration and anger out there. The tone and language, I'm afraid, from Labour Ministers in recent weeks has done nothing to lower the…

Questions to the Minister for Rural Affairs and North Wales, and Trefnydd
There is, of course, a growing global market for dairy products due to the increased population, so I think there is a real opportunity here in Wales for climate-friendly nutritious milk, but, under the current proposals for the SFS, the Welsh Government's…

Questions to the First Minister
Thank you for your answer, First Minister. Cancer patients in Wales, of course, face unacceptable health inequalities. I know, from the work that the cross-party group on cancer has done, it recommends tackling risk factors, like smoking, as you've alluded to…
