Thank you.

Welsh Government First Supplementary Budget 2021-22: Evidence session
Do you anticipate making additional funding available, and if you do, what may trigger those further allocations?
, Finance Committee
Welsh Government First Supplementary Budget 2021-22: Evidence session

Welsh Government First Supplementary Budget 2021-22: Evidence session
So, Minister, the Minister for Health and Social Services told Plenary on the twenty-first of last month that we were at the beginning of a third wave of COVID-19. How has this been reflected in the allocations for health and social services?

Welsh Government First Supplementary Budget 2021-22: Evidence session
I noticed in the supplementary plan that obviously the Welsh Government has been putting in some more money in as part of the plan laid out by the Minister last year to the airport, and I noted that there was a significant over £40 million written off…

We hope that not all schemes are put paid to them. Hopefully, those decisions won't be made too quickly, so that we can have a proper assessment of things. But thank you for that. And moving over to a different type of transport, perhaps: with the continued…

Thank you, Chair. Good morning, Minister. Good to have you with us. I'm changing the focus a little bit. I'm going to move into more transport-based issues. Could you—? Well, the Minister for Climate Change suggested a need to shift away from spending money…

Questions to the Minister for Finance and Local Government
Thank you, Minister. I appreciate the response. I raise this with you as I have some grave concerns that the current funding formula is no longer fit for purpose. It was put in place many years ago—we know the history of that—and it may have been right for…

Questions to the Minister for Finance and Local Government
I really do welcome that; thank you, Minister. Many of our businesses are still here today, despite that massive damage inflicted by COVID. Of course, I think that is because of the £6 billion in support to Wales from the UK Government. Without that support…

Questions to the Minister for Finance and Local Government
Well, thank you, Minister. That's reassuring, because Wales's businesses have warned me in no uncertain terms that they fear collapse. Many of them fear collapse unless more financial support is given now by your Government. And, with that in mind, it makes…

Debate: The UK Levelling-up and Shared Prosperity Funds
I'm quite dismayed at what I've heard today from the Minister and from his colleagues and others, and I fundamentally disagree with most elements of this motion today. I don't recognise that world that the Minister would have the country believe, and the…

Statement by the First Minister: The Programme for Government
Right. Sorry, Deputy Presiding Officer. Well, the question is: First Minister, would you be focusing a lot harder on promoting Wales on an all-Wales and global scene so that we can actually reap the benefits of that opportunity and encourage inward…

Statement by the First Minister: The Programme for Government
Thank you, First Minister, for outlining your programme for government. You talked earlier about growing the Welsh economy and, indeed, there's a section there—I briefly had a chance to look at it—looking at the economy, and we welcome anything that drives…
