Group 13: Review and implementation of the Act (Amendments 90, 91, 92, 93, 64, 65, 94)
I'm sure everyone will be pleased that this is also my final contribution this evening. [Laughter.] I will not be moving amendment 64 because it achieves exactly the same thing as amendment 94 through Siân Gwenllian, and I encourage everyone to throw their…

Group 10: Deliberate manipulation (Amendments 59, 60, 61, 62, 63)
Diolch yn fawr, Llywydd. Amendment 59 enables reconsideration of the deliberate manipulation test where there is a relevant change of circumstances. Amendment 60 ensures that in order to apply the deliberate manipulation test, it must be clear that the…

Group 9: Co-operation (Amendments 57, 58, 75, 76, 77, 78)
Diolch yn fawr, Llywydd. You'll be pleased to know that the reasons for these amendments are identical to those outlined for group 5 for educational and medical sectors, so I won't say much. The amendments in my name would extend the duty on specified public…

Nothing to add. Thank you.

Group 6: Case co-ordination (Amendments 55, 56)
Diolch, Llywydd. Sections 23 and 24 require protocols for handling cases involving care leavers and persons particularly in need of support. Voices from Care and End Youth Homelessness Cymru welcomed the joint protocols with social services, but called for…

Of course, primary care services and schools are true community-based services that people and young people at risk of homelessness are likely to encounter. I would also include the police in that, but, of course, policing is not devolved, as Siân Gwenllian…

Group 3: Ending homelessness duties (Amendments 50, 71, 51, 52, 72, 73)
We'll move to the vote, I think, Llywydd. Diolch.

Group 3: Ending homelessness duties (Amendments 50, 71, 51, 52, 72, 73)
Diolch yn fawr, Llywydd. The purpose of amendment 50 is to ensure that applicants are made aware of free independent advice if a local authority suggests ending the main housing duty—that meaning a housing option other than social home or private rented home…

Group 2: Local connection (Amendments 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49, 68, 69)
Of course, and there are clear restrictions on who can be qualified, who can be deemed as to fit into the limited categories in the amendment. So, I think it deals with your concern and, of course, if there are future issues, we have to remember that there is…

Jenny Rathbone, this is not a matter of everyone piling in, and I'm not sure if we should be using language such as that, Jenny. I’m sure you probably didn't mean it like that. Obviously, it would be restrictive, and my amendments create restriction. And with…

Thank you very much, Llywydd. I appreciate Siân Gwenllian’s arguments, but I don't agree with her. Having these on the face of the Bill won't complicate the issue. What could complicate the issue, and what could lead to things taking more time, a great deal…

Diolch, Llywydd. I'd like to thank the Cabinet Secretary's team for their time yesterday in discussing in particular these amendments. Ultimately, it was clear that perhaps the Cabinet Secretary and her team would have wished me to withdraw the set of…

Diolch yn fawr, Cabinet Secretary. 'Unnecessary', you might say, Cabinet Secretary, but you don't have to listen to me when I say that they are necessary. If there's any doubt that the case law will impact on the right to review, just look at who supports…

Statement by the Cabinet Secretary for Housing and Local Government: More Homes
I spoke to some developers yesterday, Cabinet Secretary. They told me that it's not just a matter of building houses—there are so many other complicated issues, one being access to utilities and services. I want to know what work you're doing with the Cabinet…

Questions to the First Minister
First Minister, I do not, in all honesty, welcome the clarity of today's statement because I knew exactly what your view on all of this is. We all know what the party's view is, and my view, on this matter. The truth is, we speak to this and we make the same…
