Okay. Thanks, Peredur. Kate, thank you very much for that. I think we can agree on the reporting points that you've picked up on there—there are many—and we'll take that into private session to try and plot the way forward from our committee's perspective…

Instruments that raise issues to be reported to the Senedd under Standing Order 21.2 or 21.3
It's a very astute question. Can I suggest, before we start delving into it, that we pick that up in private? It's a very pertinent question, as to what is the risk of not having this passed this week, as opposed to the risk of passing it with deficiencies…

Yes, indeed. Kate, I understand that it's 31 December of this year that it needs to be agreed by to allow the continuing functioning of the adjustments that these regulations seek to make. The challenge we have is, in seeking to make these adjustments, we've…

Okay, thank you both for that. I think that's quite helpful in terms of later discussion in private. I think we're agreed that we're happy to agree the reporting points, Kate, but we'll pick up that issue of how we take this up with Welsh Government and push…

Welsh Conservatives Debate: Independent review of children’s social care
My apologies. I hadn't intended to speak in this debate, but I've read the report in great detail, and there are definitely criticisms of Bridgend social services. There's also observation, from the care inspectorate, that measures have been taken already to…
