Carolyn Thomas: 7. What representations has the Counsel General made to the UK Government regarding plans to require photo identification cards in order to vote? OQ56691
Julie Morgan: ...we have adopted in Wales covers six characteristics, with equality and inclusion as a common thread throughout all of these. The characteristics include, for example, employee voice and collective representation, security and flexibility, growth and progression, and safe, healthy and inclusive working environments. We need to be confident that public funds will mean workers are better off...
Peredur Owen Griffiths: Diolch, First Minister. Many businesses have reopened following the last lockdown. They have done so with a reduced capacity. This invariably means a reduced income. I've had representations from a yoga studio in South Wales East that has reopened in the last couple of months, but can only welcome a third of their usual clients through the door. Their overheads remain the same. They received...
Lee Waters: ...change and others, is to make sure there is join-up, and we can insist those things are thought through. We are hoping later this year—we'd hoped to do it before the pandemic, in response to representations from Alun Davies; it's been delayed—but we're hoping by the end of this year to have a new TrawsCymru cross-Valleys bus service that will link the Grange with an east-west route,...
Lesley Griffiths: ...that includes the agreement with Australia. I have to say, the entire five years since the European Union referendum, back in June 2016, we have made these points repeatedly and very clear representations to the UK Government for appropriate agricultural safeguards, so that we don't have that very unlevel playing field going forward. I don't think the UK Government were in any doubt about...
Jane Hutt: .... We have to do something about those national governing bodies of sport in Wales, highlighted by that ITV programme, Wales This Week. And you draw attention to the policy theme, leadership and representation. We've made our commitment, Deputy Llywydd, to hold all leaders of public bodies personally accountable for delivering a representative workforce, and inclusive and psychologically...
Andrew RT Davies: ...as we all wish next Saturday. Given the change in circumstances for Danish fans, and as I understand it the level of infection is the same in Denmark as it is here in Wales, will you be making any representations to the Dutch authorities to allow Welsh fans to travel, should they meet the travel requirements that are placed on travelling fans to watch in-tournament matches? Because I do...
Luke Fletcher: ...money, or we'll receive less than we did when we were part of the EU. Westminster's levelling-up agenda has so far meant more powers for Westminster, more money for Tory seats, and less funding and representation for Wales. We deserve better. But what does 'levelling up' actually mean? So far, all we've been presented with is an array of competing competitive and opaque...
Lesley Griffiths: ...have made it clear to the UK Government for years that what they were proposing is unacceptable to us. I’ve met with the farming unions. They’re very clear on their views—they too have made representations—and we certainly will bring forward a statement when we have all the information.
Delyth Jewell: ...will lie with Westminster. Westminster, which might shortly only boast 32 Welsh MPs, a 20 per cent decrease—a figure that I doubt is matched in any other example in the world in terms of loss of representation. Dirprwy Lywydd, when I was preparing for this debate, I found out that the last time that the number of Welsh MPs was changed to 32 was in 1832, the year of the Great Reform Act,...
Lynne Neagle: ...'. Our recently established social prescribing task and finish group is looking to understand how social prescribing could aid Wales in its recovery from COVID-19, and includes, amongst others, representation from the Royal College of General Practitioners.
Jane Hutt: ...repeatedly, pressed the UK Government, to extend the deadline of 30 June 2021, particularly in light of the pandemic, but sadly to no avail. But I actually have mentioned that, as a result of many representations—. In my statement, I drew attention to the fact that the review and updating of caseworker guidance has meant that we've got more flexibility. But obviously we will have to...
Hefin David: ...YC—it's my hometown, it was where I was born, where I was brought up. We've got grave concerns about the effect that this will have on grass-roots football in South Wales East, which will have no representation in the women's premier league. At the very least, given the investment the Welsh Government has put into grass-roots sport, we deserve transparency, and that is what we are...
Mark Drakeford: Well, Llywydd, I'm very proud to lead a Government where two thirds of Ministers are women. Indeed, my party will continue the tradition of the Senedd in making sure that representation in this Senedd reflects the Wales that we live in. I'm very glad that we've had the innovative housing grant now for a number of years. Inevitably, when you are trying things out for the first time,...
Andrew RT Davies: ...like to congratulate Natasha Asghar, the first lady of colour to come into this Chamber, and I'm sure many will follow in her footsteps, just like her father as well. And we can be proud of the representation that's here, reaching out across the aisle, across all parties, to see the new blood that has come in along with the returning blood that generally has the best interests of Wales at...
Suzy Davies: .... And I tell you all without hesitation that this Senedd responds better to the needs of Wales when it reflects its population. All parties, especially mine, need to get their act together on equal representation, and I've no hesitation either in saying that even though it really has been often a joy and always a privilege working with you all, it has been working with a greater number of...
Vaughan Gething: ...principles and minimum standards, and again is supported by £1 million of additional funding. That framework has been overseen by the national bereavement steering group, which has both hospice representation and children and young people's bereavement charities included within its membership. Finally, I do want to pay tribute to the vital role of all of our hospice staff, both for adults...
Mark Reckless: ...to Business Committee. It says, 'Had the committee'—and this is the External Affairs and Additional Legislation Committee— 'Had the committee consider that it did not, it could make written representations—'. That relates to subsidiarity. I assume that sentence should read, 'Had the committee considered that it did not, it could have made representations—'. And it then goes on:...
3. The Senedd Cymru (Representation of the People) (Amendment) Order 2021
Jane Hutt: ...in terms of the commitment that is coming through. So, there is a real opportunity here, and also it is an expectation that all of us have got to live up to. And I think your point about political representation is a message here in this Senedd, isn't it, as we move into a pre-election period, and to recognise that all political parties have got that responsibility and that opportunity to...
