Business Statement and Announcement
Trefnydd, in a free society, we show our faces. It's how we recognise each other, it's how we trust each other, it's how we talk to each other. A nurse needs to see their patient, a teacher needs to see their parent at the school gate. For public safety, it's…

Questions to the First Minister
First Minister, I'm sure you'll agree with me that when it comes to dentistry, it's important to drill into the data. Recent data shows that only 40 per cent of people were treated under an NHS dentist, a 40 per cent drop since 2020. It is very difficult for…

90-second Statements
Diolch, Ddirprwy Lywydd. A wonderful old school friend of mine and a constituent, Matthew Cox, was diagnosed in 2025 with motor neurone disease, a cruel terminal illness that progressively takes away the ability to move, speak, swallow and breathe. Faced with…

Questions to the Cabinet Minister for Rural Resilience and Sustainability
Well, you're putting family farms in Wales at risk, Minister, by saying that. I hope that you do recognise that, currently, on the SFS, people cannot get on it whether they want to or not. I'd like to bring back to what Sarah Edwards, one of my colleagues…

Questions to the Cabinet Minister for Rural Resilience and Sustainability
I hope you're more than considering it because it's absolutely completely unworkable, and you know that as well as I do. Not only is dropping the BPS funding by 1 per cent the right thing to do, but by not doing that and pushing ahead with this 20 per cent…

Questions to the Cabinet Minister for Rural Resilience and Sustainability
Diolch, Deputy Presiding Officer. Firstly, Minister, I want to say 'diolch' to you too for your recent announcements, finally injecting some common sense into Labour's ridiculously rigid nitrate vulnerable zones rules. It's of course welcome and long overdue…

Trefnydd, I would like to request a statement on the shameful neglect of some of Wales's most treasured historic sites, including our Roman remains in Caerwent, known to the Romans as Venta Silurum. These remains are hugely impressive, and the Roman city…

Statement by the First Minister: Weather, wildfires, drought and resilience
Good afternoon, First Minister, and diolch for your statement. Unfortunately, like the rest of your 100-plus days of Government, your response to this emergency was nothing but a complete let-down, and your lack of action since has been an enormous…

Questions to the Cabinet Minister for Rural Resilience and Sustainability
Thank you, Minister. Diolch. Farmers need that reassurance. I agree with my colleague across the Chamber that they need that reassurance, preferably before the Royal Welsh Show, on TB, because it is absolutely decimating our industry and it has farmers crying…

Questions to the Cabinet Minister for Rural Resilience and Sustainability
Well, that's surprising, Minister, considering your obsession with hitting left-wing ideological climate targets, that you wouldn't adhere to those recommendations by, particularly, the UK Climate Change Committee. But I'll take it, that is good news, and we…

Questions to the Cabinet Minister for Rural Resilience and Sustainability
Diolch, Lywydd. Minister, can I take this opportunity to, firstly, urge you to make any key policy announcements before the Royal Welsh Show here in this Chamber, in this Senedd, in the right and proper place to do so, so that everybody across this Chamber…

Business Statement and Announcement
Diolch, Lywydd. Trefnydd, a comprehensive school in my constituency has decided to remove skirts as a uniform option for all girls from its uniform policy, due to a few girls spoiling it for the many by hitching their skirts too high. If a minority of pupils…

Trefnydd, all Labour MPs, including my own Monmouthshire MP, Catherine Fookes, and Torfaen's Nick Simpson—Thomas-Symonds, sorry—voted in Westminster recently to support a trial pushing—offering, sorry—puberty blockers, life-altering drugs to children. It's…

Questions to the First Minister
First Minister, I welcome your answer on the importance of food security, and it's good to see that you're thinking about it. But you cannot, on the one hand, say that food security matters, it's your aim, you have a plan that would require as much farmland…

Statement by the Cabinet Minister for Rural Resilience and Sustainability: Priorities for Rural Resilience and Sustainability
Diolch, Deputy Presiding Officer, and diolch for your statement, Minister. We have seen recently what has happened when the current Prime Minister followed crazy net-zero dogma, piled costs onto ordinary people and forgot the communities that keep this…
