Jayne Bryant: 7. How will the Welsh Government support unpaid carers this winter? OQ57259

1. Questions to the First Minister: Unpaid Carers (23 Nov 2021)

Jayne Bryant: Diolch, Prif Weinidog. In a recently published report, Carers UK found that 36 per cent of carers in Wales said that they were struggling to make ends meet; 34 per cent wrote that their mental health was bad or very bad; and 36 per cent reported that they are often, or always, lonely. Very sadly, they also found that carers rated their overall satisfaction with life at an average of just 4...

10. Short Debate: Drug policy in Wales and the UK: Starting a national conversation (24 Nov 2021)

Jayne Bryant: Diolch, Llywydd. I've agreed to give James Evans and Peredur Owen Griffiths each a minute in this debate.  2021 marks 50 years since the Misuse of Drugs Act 1971 was passed in the UK Parliament. While that policy was designed to prevent drug use and reduce harm, we have witnessed instead an exceptional rise in illegal drug use, addiction, and drug-related deaths across the UK....

10. Short Debate: Drug policy in Wales and the UK: Starting a national conversation (24 Nov 2021)

Jayne Bryant: In a period where the phrase 'listen to the science' has taken on a greater resonance than at any point in history, perhaps it's appropriate to look again at what scientific research is heading. For example, some cutting-edge contemporary research is being conducted on the use of psychedelics in medicine. Particularly encouraging is work being undertaken on their use in treating long-standing...

10. Short Debate: Drug policy in Wales and the UK: Starting a national conversation (24 Nov 2021)

Jayne Bryant: The Kaleidoscope project, based in my constituency, has been operating in the UK since 1968. They're a charity methadone drug clinic that provides help and support clinics for alcohol abuse, drug abuse and drug addiction. When speaking with the director, Martin Blakebrough, on this subject, he had this to say: 'In Wales, as in the rest of the UK, we have a policy of incarcerating people with...

Jayne Bryant: 4. What assessment has the Welsh Government made of local and community involvement in combating the climate emergency? OQ57343

1. Questions to the First Minister: The Climate Emergency ( 7 Dec 2021)

Jayne Bryant: Diolch, Brif Weinidog. It’s really encouraging to see people and organisations with plans and initiatives to both lower their own carbon footprint, but, more importantly, lower others' as well. Two such organisations in my constituency are RE:MAKE Newport, who have opened the first permanent repair cafe in Wales, with the support of many volunteers in the community, and the award-winning...

QNR: Questions to the First Minister (11 Jan 2022)

1. Questions to the Minister for Economy: Cost of Living (19 Jan 2022)

Jayne Bryant: 1. How will the Welsh Government use economic development to tackle the UK-wide cost-of-living crisis in Wales? OQ57477

1. Questions to the Minister for Economy: Cost of Living (19 Jan 2022)

Jayne Bryant: Thank you for that answer, Minister. The cost of living in the UK is dramatically increasing. Worryingly, energy price rises are only the tip of the iceberg with the news today that inflation has hit a 30-year high and still set to increase. Financial pressures will become very real to very many people. Thousands more will be driven into poverty, forced into stark choices of heating or...

7. Plaid Cymru Debate: The cost of living (19 Jan 2022)

Jayne Bryant: The frustrating thing for so many of us is that this is a crisis that we've seen coming. We've known energy prices are rocketing, we've known inflation is rising, yet what did this Conservative UK Government do? They cut universal credit, taking away a vital lifeline for the most vulnerable in society, they chose to raise national insurance, which will hit so many, and then, this morning,...

7. Plaid Cymru Debate: The cost of living (19 Jan 2022)

Jayne Bryant: Yes.

7. Plaid Cymru Debate: The cost of living (19 Jan 2022)

Jayne Bryant: Diolch yn fawr, Mabon, and I'm just going to come on to a point where I think that perhaps the Welsh Government can do a bit more on this sort of area. Being in debt often feels like a gut-wrenching, endless cycle, and supporting residents out of that cycle, instead of just putting a temporary stop-gap on their worries, must be a priority. Within what the Welsh Government can do, if a system...

9. Short Debate: Getting around: Free public transport for young people (19 Jan 2022)

Jayne Bryant: I really welcome this important debate put forward by Jane Dodds, and I'd like to thank Jane for agreeing to give me a minute of her time. I agree with her on many of the points raised today. The area I would like to focus on is the issue of school transport. Particularly, I'd like to see free school bus transport introduced, perhaps as a start, to both encourage more children to travel by...

QNR: Questions to the First Minister ( 1 Feb 2022)

Jayne Bryant: How is the Welsh Government promoting green energy infrastructure projects?

6. Debate: Draft Budget 2022-23 ( 8 Feb 2022)

Jayne Bryant: I'd like to begin by placing on record my thanks to the Ministers, Deputy Ministers and Welsh Government officials who provided evidence to us on the Children, Young People, and Education Committee to support our scrutiny of this year's draft budget. As well as appearing before committee, the Welsh Government provided us with extensive and detailed written information. We're grateful for...

2. Questions to the Counsel General and Minister for the Constitution: Retained EU Law ( 9 Feb 2022)

Jayne Bryant: 4. What discussions has the Counsel General had with other UK governments in respect of retained EU law? OQ57604

2. Questions to the Counsel General and Minister for the Constitution: Retained EU Law ( 9 Feb 2022)

Jayne Bryant: Counsel General, working collaboratively with other devolved Governments of the UK is essential. The majority of the people of Wales support devolution and have twice voted for it in referendums. Leaving the EU must not mean that devolution is diluted by the UK Government. Our devolved powers must be protected. What action is the Welsh Government taking to help ensure that all nations work...

12. Legislative Consent Motion on the Nationality and Borders Bill (15 Feb 2022)

Jayne Bryant: Diolch, Llywydd. As Members will know, the legislative consent memorandum scrutiny timetable gives committees very little time to gather evidence. On 18 January, we, the Children, Young People, and Education Committee, and the Health and Social Care Committee, wrote jointly to the Minister for Social Justice and to organisations in the fields of children's health and social care, children's...

QNR: Questions to the Economy Minister (16 Feb 2022)

Jayne Bryant: What is Welsh Government doing to support city centre economies to adapt to remote working practices?
