Legislative Consent Motion on the Building Safety Bill
Good afternoon, Deputy Minister. I echo many of the statements that have been made around the process. We find ourselves on a hamster wheel around LCMs, and the timescale that we've been given—yet again—is absolutely abhorrent, and absolutely not what this…

Good afternoon, Minister. May I also thank you, as has Mark, for the work that you and your team have done, and for staying in touch with me? My specific issue is around Ukrainians who are poor—those who perhaps don't have access to a car, don't have access…

Great to hear as well, Minister, that you're willing to consider Mike Hedges's suggestion around how we have a museum of churches, how we can have a walking trail, a travel trail, of churches and chapels across Wales. And I do hope that we'll be able to move…

Fuel poverty and the Warm Homes programme: Evidence session 5
Really quickly, one of the pieces of evidence we took was about the lack of people who are skilled in putting in heat-source pumps, and it's just something to flag up. So, just if that could be combined, as well, with your overview with Vaughan Gething…

Can I thank Janet Finch-Saunders for this debate as well? And I want to stand up, just as Samuel Kurtz did, for my species. I am the species champion for the pink sea fan—another name for it is the warty gorgonian, but I much prefer pink sea fan. They are a…

Welsh Conservatives Debate: Ukraine
