If I can—? You talked about water flow, as an example; there’d be others. And, of course, in an ever-changing climate at the moment that can equally change and we’re looking at clarification of what is a tip, is there sufficient flexibility to redefine?…

Okay. That’s interesting. So, NRW, in your evidence, you report inconsistency in the application of the existing definition of ‘tips’. Do you want to clarify whether that was due to interpretation or misinterpretation of the legal definition, or is there…

Good morning. I want to explore the meaning of 'disused tip'. The MRA and HSE—in your papers, you highlight potential problems with the meaning of ‘tip’ in section 81. Do you want to expand on that? And do you think the meaning of ‘tip’ in section 81 needs to…

Okay, that's fair enough. And how does the definition in the Bill compare with 'a danger to members of the public' used under the existing regime set out in Part II of the Mines and Quarries (Tips) Act 1969?

Okay, and could I ask about the 'threat to human welfare'? Would that include loss of property or land because some of these tips, of course, are behind where people live? So, the right to a place to live, which, in a potential slide, could have been removed…

Thank you. And the Bill seeks to ensure disused tips do not threaten human welfare by reason of their instability. Do you have a view on the meaning of ‘threat to human welfare’, set out in section 82? In particular, is it sufficiently clear?

Thank you. I'm moving on to definitions now. So, do you have any views on the meaning of ‘tip’ and ‘disused tip’ set out in section 81, and is it, in your view, sufficiently clear?

Gwaith craffu Cyfnod 1: y Bil Tomenni Mwyngloddiau a Chwareli Nas Defnyddir (Cymru) - Sesiwn dystiolaeth gyda Chomisiwn y Gyfraith
So, is there a risk in that flexibility—which you've repeated, quite rightly, all morning—is there a danger that a new administration might use that flexibility in a different direction?

Gwaith craffu Cyfnod 1: y Bil Tomenni Mwyngloddiau a Chwareli Nas Defnyddir (Cymru) - Sesiwn dystiolaeth gyda Chomisiwn y Gyfraith
Could I pursue the flexibility? Because flexibility can work in both directions.

So, you've sort of outlined, I'm assuming, the risks associated with not including the provision for management plans in the Bill. But there is no provision in the Bill requiring Welsh Ministers to issue guidance on the management plans. So, what are the…

Good morning. I'm going to ask about management plans. The Law Commission recommended that all disused tips should have a statutory management plan, which the authority would be required to arrange. But, as pointed out in your paper, the Bill doesn't make…

Since this is particularly about trying to get people active, linked into obesity, what particular or specific actions are any of you taking or do you know of that are encouraging that group of people?

I'm going to. I'm going to give another example, and I'm just leaving it on the table. I was in Norway last summer, and, from the very first time that young people are able to go outside, they go outside, regardless of the weather. It's all to do with the…

You’ve mentioned ACEs many times, and that’s what you’re talking about, I guess. Are you invited at any stage to inform practitioners at all levels that this could be what they need to be looking at, rather than what they see?

I want to talk about stigma and discrimination. I'll start with the fairly obvious question: to what extent is weight-related stigma and discrimination an issue for the patients that you see?
