Statement by the Cabinet Secretary for Climate Change and Rural Affairs: A sustainable Welsh marine environment
Yes. So, I would just ask the Minister: he has promised to visit the School of Ocean Sciences in Bangor, and I’d be able to tell him so much more and show him so much more when we have that visit. But thank you, Minister. I think so early on in your brief…

Statement by the Cabinet Secretary for Climate Change and Rural Affairs: A sustainable Welsh marine environment
First of all, I would like to thank the Minister for the statement—it has been a long time coming. It is something that I've raised in climate change committee and I've raised in the Senedd. Welsh territorial seas cover some 32,000 square kilometers. That's…

Questions to the First Minister
Yes, okay. So, what will you do, working with the health Minister, First Minister, to ensure that you look exactly at how the insourcing of external programmes is working? Because to actually stop it for a year and it not be picked up is disgraceful. I want…

Questions to the First Minister
Yes. So, basically, those patients were then just left in abeyance for months and months and months at a time. Now, they've written to me saying—

Questions to the First Minister
Thank you. Well, interestingly, in Betsi terms, they call it insourcing of external, you know, procedures. Now, 8,568 patient pathways are waiting over 105 weeks, two years, to start treatment, and that's 3,600 per cent more than the whole of England. Now, in…

Welsh Conservatives Debate: Tourism
Do you not realise how insular that sounds? At the end of the day, you should be welcoming tourists and visitors to Wales. We’ve got so much to shout about, the beauty of this wonderful country. You should be wanting to sell that, not just across the UK but…

I am thrilled this co-operation agreement is confined to the history and legacy that you will be remembered for.

Welsh Conservatives Debate: Tourism
At a time when all the sector needed was support and attention, the ideologues seem to think that the whole system needs a shake-up. Let's reduce the 182-day occupancy threshold, scrap the tourism tax and allow the sector to breathe and recover.

Welsh Conservatives Debate: Tourism
—do not understand. It is its lifeblood. And I am proud of every one of those privately owned hospitality businesses and retailers who work hard—they work a lot harder than some of these Ministers here.

Welsh Conservatives Debate: Tourism
Let us start by looking at the scope and scale of tourism in Wales so that we can understand just how important it is to our culture, our economy and industry. Around one in every nine people in Wales work in this sector, with over 75 per cent of those…

Do you know it's not that long ago that the leader of Plaid Cymru was actually saying how much against nuclear power they were? The doom and gloom coming from those benches is just—. On a more cheery note, what a fantastic announcement there has been today…

Questions to the Senedd Commission
Thank you. Yes, of course, I’ll take those points on board and, when we next meet as a Commission, I will raise those, but I would like to thank you for hosting the event that you did. In fact, some of my constituents attended that event, so that just shows…

Questions to the Senedd Commission
Amazing. I would just say in my response to you that any Member who hasn't been up to see the bees, you must go, and you can buy the honey. The Commission takes the sustainability portfolio very seriously. We have an externally verified environmental system…

Questions to the Senedd Commission
I'd like to thank the Member, because it's important that we actually keep the natural environment in everything that we do here in the Senedd Commission. I went to see the bees last week. I believe you've been as well.

Questions to the Cabinet Secretary for Culture and Social Justice
Heaven forbid that there should be any further devolution when one considers that, after 26 years, you've failed in health, transport, education, culture, arts, social care, the economy, and I could go on. I believe that the UK Conservative Government has…

So, how—? If you're negotiating a change to the uses of that escrow money, are you a little worried that they might have the money and not do the restoration? Are guarantees going to be put in—?
