Legislative Consent: Health Bill - evidence session 4
Brilliant. Diolch, Becca. Just to clarify, I appreciate that this is restructuring in England, but the JCC, when we heard from them last week, were concerned about having to deal with a number of different bodies now rather than just NHS England. So, that…

Brilliant, thank you. And just as well, whether the Bill provides adequate protection for all Welsh patients who rely on specialised and tertiary NHS services in England, given that the duty on those integrated care boards to consider impact applies only to…

Absolutely, Nigel. Sorry, I didn't want to—. I just wanted to clarify.

Legislative Consent: Health Bill - evidence session 4
Can we go back, sorry, just around the question that Nigel asked about the integrated care boards? I'm wondering if that new duty on those integrated care boards to consider the impact of commissioning decisions on people living in Wales is likely to provide…

Reform UK Debate: Access to HMOs and social housing for foreign nationals
Homes are the foundations of our entire lives, from health and well-being to education and jobs. This motion is divisive and misleading, and it's important to put the facts front and centre of this debate. I'll start with houses in multiple occupation. HMOs…

Questions to the Cabinet Minister for Local Government, Housing and Planning
Diolch, Cabinet Minister. I'd recommend you do look at that scheme because, as I said, the feedback from many was how effective it had been, particularly for reluctant landlords. Whilst every town and city centre has its own unique identity, many are facing…

Statement by the Deputy Minister for Transport: Strategic Priorities for the Menai Strait Crossings and M4 around Newport
Deputy Minister, if you close these junctions, how do you expect the two remaining fully open junctions at Tredegar Park and the Coldra to cope?

Statement by the Deputy Minister for Transport: Strategic Priorities for the Menai Strait Crossings and M4 around Newport
This statement is telling us what we already know: that there is a problem on the M4 around Newport. It really is astounding that junction closures are even being considered as part of the solution by this Plaid Cymru Government. The people of Newport are not…
