Cwestiynau i Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet dros Gyllid, y Cyfansoddiad a Swyddfa’r Cabinet
Sbardunwyd y cwestiwn gan y rhan o'ch datganiad lle roeddech yn llawn cyffro ynghylch y technolegau newydd a oedd yn cael eu defnyddio gan y VOA i wneud hyn, felly credaf ei bod yn gwbl briodol ein bod yn ei herio, yn enwedig yng ngoleuni’r trafodaethau…

Y wybodaeth ddiweddaraf am ddeisebau blaenorol
I support John. I think there is further action that we could be taking to—. Members could, obviously, thank the petitioner for highlighting the negative consequences, and also highlighting why the situation is creating such a detrimental impact on the more…

Thank you, Chair. I recognise the sentiments and concerns that this original petition presented and I commend the thoroughness of the Campaign Against East Vale Over Development group for the work they've done in bringing this to light and understand there…

So, I have a slightly different perspective. I'm also somebody who lives in the south, and I suppose I declare an interest, actually, that I now see my area is part of the Gwent levels—where it wouldn't originally, it's now got a big sign saying 'the Gwent…

Another point, if I may, on the back of what John said, because I think John's quite right, is that one of the things I have noticed, even though I get frustrated about 50 mph, is that I do notice that I do keep moving when I'm coming to Cardiff—albeit…

It'd be interesting to know, of the thousands of cars that drive that stretch today, compared with, say, 2018, 2019 and 2020, when the main of the assessments were made, how many now are electric, and how they have influenced the downward trend more than…

Thank you, Chair. I'm happy for us to discuss these two petitions together. I thank Michele and Jonathan for submitting them. I know as a regular user of the M4 every day—I come along it as I attend this place, and have done for many, many years—and…

I agree with everything Peredur said again. This is important. I thank the petitioners for bringing this forward, because this is an important subject to keep in the forefront of our minds. As a farmer, I know also how fireworks, especially some of the…

I was thinking to myself as I was reading this and just wondered how much more mileage there is left in the actual writing, because it looks like the Government has made its position really clear. These things always do take a long time to change mindsets…

Thank you, Chair. Can I also thank Bryn Thomas for submitting the petition? Obviously, there are a lot of signatories to it. This sort of petition has come before the Senedd several times over previous years. I note that the Government, the Minister, has…

I too welcome this being brought forward. It's an important debate; it's a debate that we should have, and I know it's been had in many communities across Wales, and we've seen defibrillators put in place. So, there is no doubt about it that they are welcomed…

I know, certainly in the political world, when we employ people, we want to make sure that they haven't got a past that is embarrassing for us, or whatever.

[Inaudible.]—I recognise the capacity to go back, but when you're recruiting though, is that part of your due diligence of recruiting, recognising the total impartiality needs of your organisation? Is that part of your recruitment process? I think I certainly…

It might be an interesting piece of work to review their thoughts, certainly monitoring officers, who have regular contact with the office, their views or observations over many years. That's just a thought. That's all from me. Thank you.

That's fine. The last point from me, then. I just wondered if the review is likely to engage with stakeholders other than your office. And, if so, how is that likely to be carried out?

A couple more questions from me, Michelle. You're hoping that perhaps we can come to some conclusion by the end of the summer. Also, you're having close talks with the review lead. You've obviously discussed timescales with her, how this might work out. And…

So, just focusing a little bit more on how the review will be conducted, specifically what information and access will the independent reviewer have—I know we've had a flavour of that already—and what resources will be made available to them over the course…

—we have all that confidence. So, I wonder could you set out what decisions and cases the review will consider and what decisions and cases it won't consider, and why the review is taking that approach?
