Motion to amend Standing Orders—Proxy voting
I am a member of the Business Committee, and we have rehearsed these issues before, including Darren Millar's position that the pairing system actually fulfils the issues we're trying to address. It doesn't address or fulfil those issues for somebody like…

Questions to the Minister for Social Justice
Good afternoon, Minister. Just following on from that question from Gareth as well, I also met with Ukrainian guests and their hosts in Powys last week, in Talybont, and one of the issues that they did raise with me was transport, particularly in a rural…

Statement by the Minister for Economy: The Free-port Programme in Wales
I recognise and welcome this really positive statement, but I would like to remind Members that, of course, this doesn't replace the unfettered access we had to the world's largest single market prior to us leaving the EU. But this is a reset for some of our…

Business Statement and Announcement
Good afternoon, Minister. It is reported that the chief executive of Dŵr Cymru is to receive a bonus payment of nearly £0.25 million. This is despite sewage being in our rivers and our seas, and our beaches being in a terrible condition. I wonder if I could…

Questions to the First Minister
Good afternoon, First Minister. Today the Welsh Liberal Democrats published a report looking at dentistry, particularly focusing on our concern around two-tier dentistry—and I do make no apology in using that term. We have a system at the moment that means…

Motion under Standing Orders 17.42(vi) and (ix) to exclude the public from the remainder of the meeting
Yes, I wanted to say a word about the same letter also. I completely agree with what Sioned has said there, but I also hope there will be an opportunity for us to perhaps discuss this, looking to our agenda also. That's all I wanted to say. Thank you.

Data justice: the use of personal data in the Welsh NHS: evidence session 3
BAME; I did say BAME. Sorry.

Data justice: the use of personal data in the Welsh NHS: evidence session 3
Thank you very much, and just one final question, before we go over to Sioned. Are you absolutely confident that data available in health services and the collection of data from groups that are underrepresented—for example, BMAE groups, et cetera—are you…

Data justice: the use of personal data in the Welsh NHS: evidence session 3
Thank you very much, Chair. I know that time is running out, and so I will just ask the first question and then Sioned Williams will be coming in. I want to focus on data inequality, if I may, and I want to ask, in your opinion, whether the health data that…

Thank you very much, Chair.

Data justice: the use of personal data in the Welsh NHS: evidence session 2
Thank you very much. Just one final question. We heard from the first panel that there was a concern with regard to data in the mental health sphere, and, therefore, there were people who were being treated in different ways within the mental health service…

Data justice: the use of personal data in the Welsh NHS: evidence session 2
Thank you very much. Just one final question—
, Equality and Social Justice Committee
Data justice: the use of personal data in the Welsh NHS: evidence session 2
Yes, of course. We're interested to know whether there's an inequality across Wales with regard to where people have data held in health services, and how we make sure that everyone then gets the opportunity for their data to be used, as we press ahead with…
, Equality and Social Justice Committee
Data justice: the use of personal data in the Welsh NHS: evidence session 2
Thank you very much for that. Could I also please ask a question about services and how they're developed from the data? Do you have any evidence that the availability of data drives developments in services that are steered more towards specific groups of…

Data justice: the use of personal data in the Welsh NHS: evidence session 2
Thank you very much. I'm going to ask my questions in Welsh, so I'm just checking that you all hear me. Great. I want to ask a question about tackling data inequality. Is the health data being collected representative of the population as a whole? Do you…

Data justice: the use of personal data in the Welsh NHS: evidence session 1
Thank you for that. Just to be clear, you're saying that that affects the services as well. So, the research affects services, just to be clear. Thank you.
, Equality and Social Justice Committee
Data justice: the use of personal data in the Welsh NHS: evidence session 1
Thank you very much. I have another question about developments in services and whether there is any impact on that. So, is there any evidence that the availability of data is driving developments in services that lean more towards certain conditions or…

Data justice: the use of personal data in the Welsh NHS: evidence session 1
Thank you very much. Is there anyone in the room who wants to respond to that as well? Anybody in the room wanting to respond to that?

Data justice: the use of personal data in the Welsh NHS: evidence session 1
Thank you very much. I will ask my questions in Welsh. Ann has touched on this earlier—that is, inequality in the data field. And I just want to ask more about that, please. Does the health data that are collected represent the population as a whole? That's…

Short Debate: Fire safety in high-rise flats: A clear timetable for remediation for residents
I just really wanted in the very short time that I've got just to ask the Minister about two specific issues around developers. We know that developers have been dragged literally kicking and screaming to the table, and, really, as I said, I think it was…

Thank you to Plaid Cymru for this motion. I'm going to be supporting the motion unamended. Just let me tell you a little story about door-knocking in a village called Llangynog, which is just south of Llanwddyn, near lake Vyrnwy. I came across a lady who told…

Welsh Conservatives Debate: Minister for Health and Social Services
I'd just like to start my contribution with this reflection on this debate: I feel this is a really poor way to do politics. This place, in my view, is much better than that. I don't see how spending 60 minutes, which we will do today, plus the time we have…
