Hywel Williams: I welcome the new three-year degree for training social workers, but does the Secretary of State accept that there is value in shorter, postgraduate qualifications for people with relevant degrees, as they would be more likely to attract people with life experience, whom we so desperately need to provide improved services?

Hywel Williams: As regards ambulance services in England and Wales, in the last quarter the average response rate for category 8 calls—eight minutes in urban areas—was 51.8 per cent. For the best area it was 70 per cent. and for the very worst it was 38.5 per cent. Does not that suggest to the Minister that his colleague in Cardiff is either not doing her job or is not up to her job?
Hywel Williams: Will the Minister dissociate himself from the intemperate remarks on the "Today" programme by Washington-based hawks, in which they rubbished the efforts of France, Belgium and Germany in the attempts to disarm Iraq? Will he assure the House that the Government have given serious consideration to those countries' proposals?
Martyn Jones: ...Labour's policies over the past six years, and they have experienced the largest falls in the number of jobless. Against that background, it is little wonder that the hon. Member for Caernarfon (Hywel Williams) should have come to pay tribute to the excellent work done by the Government not only by protecting jobs in those constituencies but by maintaining the right economic conditions to...

Hywel Williams: I am slightly concerned that the Secretary of State seems to have jumped several generations, from talking about poverty among children to pensioners. Does he intend to address the income support available to younger people—those under 25—who are very clearly in poverty? I note from the table provided that the increase will be a whole 55p this year. Does he suggest that they perhaps buy a...
Hywel Williams: To ask the Secretary of State for Defence what use has been made of munitions containing uranium in live firing training in the UK since 1986.
Hywel Williams: I, too, congratulate the hon. Member for Edinburgh, North and Leith (Mr. Lazarowicz) on securing this debate on an extremely important subject. The brevity of my remarks does not reflect the importance that my party colleagues and I place on the issue. "HIV AIDS is a modern apocalypse which dwarfs everything that has gone before." Those are the words of Stephen Lewis, the UN special envoy...
Martyn Jones: ...s first report, which I hope we will receive in the not-too-distant future. It may surprise some of my hon. Friends if I offer thanks to a Welsh nationalist Member, the hon. Member for Caernarfon (Hywel Williams), who is sadly not in his place. I was recently successful in securing a Westminster Hall Adjournment debate on employment in north Wales in which the hon. Gentleman and I had an...
Hywel Williams: What steps are the Government taking to make child care more accessible in rural areas, where there are particular problems with the provision and accessibility of child care, and where there is certainly not equity of provision?
Hywel Williams: The very active and positive Cambrian coast railway liaison conference is made up of members from all parties and from none. They have been working hard but are continually disappointed that the small amount of investment needed to improve services on the Cambrian coast is withheld. Will the Secretary of State assure us that those services will be improved, as the cross-party Cambrian line...
Hywel Williams: Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, for calling me to speak in this significant debate. At the outset, I must say that, like the Minister, I come from a country where, as the old song goes, "if you want a drink on Sunday, You will have to wait till Monday". At least, that is how it used to be. It is no longer the case in hotels, restaurants and pubs in my constituency and throughout Wales, which...
Hywel Williams: Will the Minister give way?
Hywel Williams: To ask the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry what proportion of the United Kingdom oil supply was refined within Wales in the last three years; and how much this represented per head of population.
Hywel Williams: To ask the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry what proportion of the UK (a) electricity and (b) gas supply originated in Wales in the last three years.
