Mr William Williams: On a point of Order. For the sake of accuracy, Mr. Speaker, should not "Hywel Ddu," in Question No. 32, be "Hywel Dda," meaning "Hywel the Good" and not "Hywel the Black"?
Mr Donald Anderson: The hon. Member for Kensington (Sir B. Rhys Williams) shares one characteristic with Dr. Billy Graham—he has many texts but one sermon. The Welsh people were tremendously disappointed at the Government's negative response to the Select Committee's recommendations. We started work in high hopes as a result of the failure of the devolution proposals in the referendum. We worked hard as a...

Dr Alan Williams: ...the Front-Bench team for all its good work so far and we hope that, in March, we shall finally achieve objective 1 status. I wish that there were more reports of the work of the task force under Hywel Ceri Jones, which was an imaginative and forward-looking idea. It involves about 160 working parties in different parts of Wales. Over the next 12 months to five years, they will have the...

Hywel Williams: I shall make two broad points on PFI in health; one on risk, and the other on value for money. We all face the risk of ill health, and health care will always be in demand. As the private sector realises only too well, under this Government—as with the previous one—the market for health care is good. PFI projects in health are a rock-solid investment for the private sector. Demand is...

Hywel Williams: I am particularly glad to be given the opportunity to speak because I wrote Plaid Cymru's submission to the Sutherland royal commission on long-term care. We in Plaid Cymru agreed with the recommendations of the royal commission and many older people in Wales looked forward to the Government acting on its recommendations, particularly those on funding. The hon. Member for Somerton and Frome...
Hywel Williams: Is the Leader of the House aware that in the continuing dispute at Friction Dynamex in my constituency the workers have been out for the past five or six months and their only reward so far has been dismissal? May we have a statement from the DTI on the efforts that it has made to resolve that long-running dispute?
Hywel Williams: To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Skills if she will make a statement on the Government's policies for combating illiteracy in (a) Wales and (b) England.
Hywel Williams: We in Plaid Cymru welcome the Bill and its emphasis on a strategic approach to homelessness and on strengthening the position of homeless people. I support amendment No. 9 rather than amendment No. 8. It takes a complete approach to the entire housing stock "across all sectors and tenures". Much of rural Wales—and rural England, for that matter—has sufficient housing stock, with more than...
