Thank you very much. Yes, I take on board your point—it shouldn't be rushed, we want to get this right, absolutely. But, again, in the absence of having any indication of anything that's going on, or any real transparency and accountability around those work…

Chair, could I just ask my last question and then—

The public health approach to preventing gender-based violence: evidence session 10
Thank you. Can I just ask, then, in the absence of us having any of these specific indicators, or even an estimation of when we will receive them, or any idea, really, of what they could possibly be, would it be possible, then, to have the work plans for each…

Thank you, Minister. It is important, as you said, because it is about establishing a pattern of reporting on the progress against the national indicators. I know that you said that you have work streams at the moment that are looking into this, but, again…

Thank you very much. Good afternoon, Minister. I'm going to ask some questions now about evidence and evaluation. One of the commitments of the VAWDASV Act is to develop a set of national indicators to measure the progress around VAWDASV prevention. At the…

Debate on the Equality and Social Justice Committee Report—'Unsustainable: debt fuelled by the rising cost of living'
Absolutely, and that’s what I said. I acknowledged that these were issues that were happening across the world, across everywhere, but you also cannot dismiss that that 2022 mini budget exacerbated everything. I mean, as you can see here, no other country had…

Okay, thank you very much. And my last question: we do have members of our advisory group in the gallery this afternoon, and one of the things that they raised, actually, is just that—. And I thought I'd heard it all, I'll be honest with you, but some of the…

Okay. Thank you. And you mentioned Estyn earlier on, and, in 2017, Estyn published a review of healthy relationships education. How well, in your opinion, have schools progressed with the issues raised in that report? Are you willing to include follow-up work…

Wonderful, thank you. I'll just finish up, Chair, with my final question. As I've already mentioned, unfortunately, we didn't receive evidence from the Welsh ambulance service, so I'm going to ask a question about Welsh Government's oversight of this. Routine…

Are GPs required to do the 'ask and act', though? Are they not required to do it? No. Okay. It's up to them.

The public health approach to preventing gender-based violence: evidence session 8
So, unfortunately, we don't have the evidence for that, the written evidence from them. But, just to come back to GPs specifically, my question about GPs, we have had written evidence to say that there is currently no information available to members of the…

It's interesting that you mention that, Minister, as we unfortunately as a committee have not received evidence from Cardiff and Vale health board, Swansea Bay health board or WAST.
