Yes, I think that's fine; it would be brilliant.

Thank you, Chair. I'm the chair of the Aber Valley Heritage Group, and we were recently presented with a women's international cap from a lady who won that cap in 1967. And we approached the Football Association of Wales to take part in a nice little ceremony…

Sorry, I missed that as well. Yes, sorry.

Thank you, Chair. I note that this was initially, perhaps, to talk about stroke victims as well, and I notice that, certainly, some action seems to have been taken by the health board to alleviate the position of people travelling and to try and…

I'm wondering whether that legacy report could just include a sentence about this, because it's a very important issue, not only for the pensioners, but it's an important issue for exploitation and the end of exploitation, and that's what concerns me.

Yes, Chair. As possibly the oldest person on this committee, maybe I should declare an interest too. I understand that it is the duty of pension funds to obviously obtain the best possible value for money and the best investment for the future of the members…

Thank you, Chair. Well, I just fought a by-election in Caerphilly, and I can tell you that a nation of sanctuary was probably the hottest topic on the doorstep and at any public debate. The people of Caerphilly made their choice, and I thought that it was a…

Questions to the Cabinet Secretary for Health and Social Care
Minister, I believe it's everyone's responsibility to ensure that the 80 per cent target for breast screening is achieved. To me, it was my second Petitions Committee, and I was shocked at the low figures in some constituencies. A significant barrier appears…

Statement by the Deputy First Minister and Cabinet Secretary for Climate Change and Rural Affairs: Coal Tip Safety
We will continue, like you, to insist that the UK Government funds this work properly. The age of coal is over. Wales's future lies in clean energy. The question, Deputy First Minister, is this: will you reiterate that the Government's coal policy protects…

Statement by the Deputy First Minister and Cabinet Secretary for Climate Change and Rural Affairs: Coal Tip Safety
Deputy First Minister, I can tell that this is not only foremost in your mind; I think it's in your heart as well, and that is coming across. I speak today for the communities of people who live beneath the Bedwas tip, in the literal shadow of our industrial…

Questions to the First Minister
As a loyal member of Plaid Cymru, can I thank the First Minister? The issue of corridor care in our hospitals, of course, is a deeply alarming indicator of the severe pressures facing the Welsh NHS. It represents a fundamental failure to uphold the dignity…

I think, Chair, during COVID, I know it was a major emergency, but we could set up emergency hospitals across Wales and they were set up quite quickly. They weren't used too widely and you could argue that that is a good thing or a bad thing—I think it was a…

Thank you, Chair. Again, another serious issue. I'm sure that I speak for many people across Wales when I say that I can name you four individuals who are personally known to me who have had a relatively serious illness—well, one very serious illness—and they…

I believe that we have 12—at least that's what my research said. I think that only 11 may be on the road at the moment. But, if necessary, for example, why not send an additional mobile centre and move it around from Holyhead to Amlwch, Beaumaris or any other…

Sorry, Chair, could we also ask about the greater use of the mobile centres?

Thank you very much, Chair. This is only the second meeting of the Petitions Committee that I have attended, and I would say that this is certainly the most alarming statistic that I have read in possibly the last 35 to 40 years I've been involved in…
