Economic Activity of Public Bodies (Overseas Matters) Bill - Committee (1st Day): Amendment 1 (20 Mar 2024)

Baroness Janke: ...cannot be used as the basis of a decision. Many councillors get into politics because they have moral and political views—they want to change the world and do something about things in their own area. I would welcome clarity, as others have asked for, on how it is to be established whether a decision-maker has been “influenced by political or moral disapproval of foreign state...

10. Short Debate: Saving lives and protecting our communities — The case for overdose prevention centres (20 Mar 2024)

Lynne Neagle: ...deaths. But, obviously, we also have to operate within the law, as I'm sure you'll understand. I will conclude by saying that I welcome the opportunity to respond to this debate, as this is an area I am very passionate about. Whilst we do not hold all the legislative powers, there is much we are doing to drive a distinct Welsh response to substance misuse and to make a difference. I hope...

9. Short Debate: A national plan for flood resilience (20 Mar 2024)

Julie James: .... Just on that point, then, Heledd, I'm quite interested in the idea of a national flood forum of some sort. We do have several other—. So, we have a technical committee already working in the area; I don't think that's what you mean. What you mean is a forum for communities affected. So, I think there's a piece of work to be done, and I'll come on to that in my speech. I might probably...

7. Plaid Cymru Debate: Barnett formula (20 Mar 2024)

Rhun ap Iorwerth: ..., whether mechanisms work, tells us everything that we need to know: that it's time to look again at how Wales is funded and the rules around public spending, borrowing, use of reserves, the whole area of the fiscal flexibilities that we seek, and, of course, the review of Barnett. So, I'm pleased that we do have consensus and the Senedd will speak again today in calling for that review....

6. Debate on petition P-06-1367, 'Fund the removal of quarry rocks and the restoration of sand and groynes to Llandudno North Shore' (20 Mar 2024)

Jack Sargeant: ...think the work on reviewing that won't be for my chairmanship or my committee, it will be for a future committee in a future Senedd. But to finish, Presiding Officer, just to say, Llandudno and the area around the pier has been a childhood memory for all of us in the north of Wales, and I know today's debate will have triggered some nostalgia, and I hope it gives us some food for thought...

Petition - Proposed Mallard Solar Plant (20 Mar 2024)

Alicia Kearns: ...Solar and its use of Uyghur blood labour and no to the Mallard Pass solar plant. I thank the 3,414 people who physically signed the petition —that is a colossal number for an extremely rural area—and give a huge thank you to the Mallard Pass Action Group for its leadership and dedication, in particular Sue Holloway, Helen Woolley and Adele Stainsby, who are in the Gallery today, as...

Petition - Barclays Bank Closure in Suffolk (20 Mar 2024)

Therese Coffey: I rise to present this petition on behalf of the residents of Suffolk Coastal and the wider Suffolk area. It recognises that Barclays bank will close its Leiston branch in May, which means Barclays will have closed all eight of its branches in Suffolk Coastal, including Aldeburgh, Felixstowe, Halesworth, Martlesham Heath, Saxmundham, Southwold and Woodbridge. Furthermore, we are concerned...

Post Office (Horizon System) Offences Bill (20 Mar 2024)

Kevin Hollinrake: ...to work with the right hon. Gentleman and the advisory board. I take this opportunity to pay tribute to him, Lord Arbuthnot, Sir Chris Hodges, and Professor Richard Moorhead for their work in this area. We will continue to work closely alongside the right hon. Gentleman. My hon. Friend the Member for North Norfolk (Duncan Baker) recognised the work of people other than me on this...

Prevention of Future Deaths Report: Terance Radford (20 Mar 2024)

Lee Anderson: .... He always tried to serve his community in the best way that he could. He was a local councillor for many years and also took the post of head governor at several local schools in the Mansfield area. He was also a justice of the peace—a job that he enjoyed from 1971 to 1985. Everyone in the community valued Terry for his honesty and integrity. He would always take time to help people....

5. Member Debate under Standing Order 11.21(iv): National collections (20 Mar 2024)

Tom Giffard: ...by this Welsh Labour Government. We know that the cultural and the arts sector here in Wales has taken a disproportionate cut in terms of the overall savings that have been made across the budget area, so I would like the Deputy Minister in her response, if possible, to explain exactly why it is this sector that seems to have borne the brunt of these cuts, and exactly whether she was that...

Defibrillators (20 Mar 2024)

Andrew Stephenson: ...in this role. While this is primarily a matter for the Department for Transport, I know that my hon. Friend the Member for Stoke-on-Trent North will continue to make representations in this area. I assure him that the Government are always happy to engage in those discussions. I am also aware of my hon. Friend’s interest in ensuring that all emergency vehicles carry AEDs as a matter of...

3. Questions to the Minister for Health and Social Services: NHS Dental Care (20 Mar 2024)

Baroness Mair Eluned Morgan: ...there, of course, is how we finance that, and that is one of the greatest challenges we face now. I know that there have been concerns in the past in particular about getting dentists in the area that both you and I represent. You're quite right about Powys; it was quite good to be able to support the new dentist there. I'm delighted to see that Aberystwyth University is developing a...

School Meals for Children - Question (20 Mar 2024)

Lord Brooke of Alverthorpe: .... This is a topic of great concern to all of us. One in three children now leaving primary school is overweight or obese. This, in part, links back not only to what they are eating at home but to an area where the Government have some influence and control, which is school meals. It was 2014 when the regulations were last reviewed; it is time they were looked at again. Much has changed...

3. Questions to the Minister for Health and Social Services: Questions Without Notice from Party Spokespeople (20 Mar 2024)

Baroness Mair Eluned Morgan: ..., we've now got a women's quality statement, which is looking at how we improve the quality of care for women in the health service in Wales. We've appointed a clinical lead to drive change in this area, so that there is more of an awareness, so that there's better training for people, particularly GPs, to know what the issues are, what to look out for. But the key thing is let's do it as...

2. Questions to the Minister for Climate Change: Harbour Porpoises (20 Mar 2024)

Janet Finch-Saunders: ..., because I'm the harbour porpoise champion in Wales. Three sites off the coast of Wales and south-west England have been identified as important areas for these sea mammals. They have a combined area of 16,477 km, with water depths ranging from the shallower waters along the coast down to approximately 100m. The main threats to these porpoises include getting caught as bycatch in some...

2. Questions to the Minister for Climate Change: Environmental Obligations (20 Mar 2024)

Julie James: ...possible to comply, if you like, by 6 April—and if that compliance isn't secured, then there will be severe consequences for that. But I do absolutely understand the residents' concerns. That's an area of the world I don't live in like you do, but I visit very often, as you know, and it's not something we should be putting up with.  So, I'm pleased that the enforcement has gone ahead....

Free Childcare Scheme - Question (20 Mar 2024)

Baroness Barran: Some people might recognise that the Government are making a very substantial investment in this area. We have already spent more than £20 billion over the past five years to support families with the cost of childcare, and this next step will be another major one.

2. Questions to the Minister for Climate Change: Renewable Energy Schemes (20 Mar 2024)

Julie James: ...it in the form of cheaper energy. If they don't own part of it, then you're restricted to community benefits. Community benefits can be amazing, they can do all kinds of regenerative things in your area, but they can't give you cheaper energy. Although, we have been able to agree with the renewables industry that what they could do is retrofit the houses, so that they would be more...

Sri Lanka: Human Rights — [Dame Maria Miller in the Chair] (20 Mar 2024)

Brendan O'Hara: ..., and groups pressuring the Government to act have been harassed and marginalised. The hon. Member for Carshalton and Wallington talked about the 1979 Prevention of Terrorism Act. That has been an area of real, grave concern for many of us. The Act has allowed arbitrary arrests, detention without charge, false confession and torture of anyone suspected of terrorism. The Government have...

2. Questions to the Minister for Climate Change: Renewable Energy (20 Mar 2024)

Julie James: ...water, and we are definitely looking at that. I've just discussed tidal lagoons with my colleague Mike Hedges. I'm from Swansea; it's no secret that we would very much like a tidal lagoon in our area, and, of course, we have a number of others, which I won't mention now, but we have a huge number of others. I'm very, very, very proud of the Menter Môn project in the Morlais straits, which...
