Our commitment to children and young people is enshrined in legislation and Brexit does not change this. Listening to and investing in children and young people is intrinsically a good thing to do. It makes sense for the good of society and for the long-term benefit of the economy.

The road safety framework for Wales sets out the actions we and our partners will take to achieve our casualty reduction targets. The framework will be reviewed following the release of the 2016 casualty statistics.

We continue to engage with the UK Government and the other devolved governments to ensure the priorities of Wales are reflected in the negotiations on the United Kingdom’s exit from the European Union. These priorities were set out clearly in the white paper, ‘Securing Wales’ Future’, published yesterday.

I understand that the health board discussed the progress of the investigation and the independent governance review during its meeting last week. It is also under special measures, putting in place the steps needed to sustainably improve mental health services across North Wales.

The health board reported against the milestones set under the improvement framework in November, which highlighted good progress. I expect to see continued and sustained delivery of the required improvement outcomes before we consider removing it from special measures.
Ministers make up the Government and almost all are members of the House of Lords or the House of Commons. There are three main types of Minister. Departmental Ministers are in charge of Government Departments. The Government is divided into different Departments which have responsibilities for different areas. For example the Treasury is in charge of Government spending. Departmental Ministers in the Cabinet are generally called 'Secretary of State' but some have special titles such as Chancellor of the Exchequer. Ministers of State and Junior Ministers assist the ministers in charge of the department. They normally have responsibility for a particular area within the department and are sometimes given a title that reflects this - for example Minister of Transport.
A document issued by the Government laying out its policy, or proposed policy, on a topic of current concern.Although a white paper may occasion consultation as to the details of new legislation, it does signify a clear intention on the part of a government to pass new law. This is a contrast with green papers, which are issued less frequently, are more open-ended and may merely propose a strategy to be implemented in the details of other legislation.
