1. 1. Questions to the First Minister: <p>The Cardiff City Deal</p> ( 5 Jul 2016)

Neil McEvoy: Before I come to a question, I was heckled by you last week, and you audibly called me a coward. I would suggest, in future, you behave in a more—

1. 1. Questions to the First Minister: <p>The Cardiff City Deal</p> ( 5 Jul 2016)

Neil McEvoy: With respect, I would ask the First Minister to behave more like a First Minister.

1. 1. Questions to the First Minister: <p>The Cardiff City Deal</p> ( 5 Jul 2016)

Neil McEvoy: My question is coming now, but my statement remains. I’ve just chaired a conference on the city deal—

1. 1. Questions to the First Minister: <p>The Cardiff City Deal</p> ( 5 Jul 2016)

Neil McEvoy: I am asking my question, with respect, Presiding Officer, if you’ll let me. [Interruption.] I’ve just chaired a conference on the city deal. [Interruption.]

1. 1. Questions to the First Minister: <p>The Cardiff City Deal</p> ( 5 Jul 2016)

1. 1. Questions to the First Minister: <p>The Cardiff City Deal</p> ( 5 Jul 2016)

Neil McEvoy: There were hundreds of delegates, from the third sector, from Government, yet there was only one person from a local business. My question is: why are local communities and why are local businesses not being included in the city deal? Small businesses are the backbone of this economy and yet their voice is hardly heard. Why is that?

QNR: Questions to the Cabinet Secretary for Education ( 6 Jul 2016)

Neil McEvoy: Is closing the attainment gap between disadvantaged and more advantaged pupils a priority for the Minister?

1. 1. Questions to the First Minister: <p>Access to Welsh Ministers</p> (12 Jul 2016)

Neil McEvoy: 2. Will the First Minister make a statement on access to Welsh Ministers? OAQ(5)0118(FM)

1. 1. Questions to the First Minister: <p>Access to Welsh Ministers</p> (12 Jul 2016)

Neil McEvoy: Your Government has made sure that Wales has the weakest protection in the UK against commercial lobbying. There is no register. The last Presiding Officer said that we don’t have the same problems as Westminster. But, from what I can see, companies like Deryn, selling access and information to the highest bidder, seem to be everywhere in this Assembly. I wasn’t even allowed to submit a...

1. 1. Questions to the First Minister: <p>Access to Welsh Ministers</p> (12 Jul 2016)

Neil McEvoy: I submitted a question about cash for access to Welsh Ministers—

1. 1. Questions to the First Minister: <p>Access to Welsh Ministers</p> (12 Jul 2016)

Neil McEvoy: So, one is on the record, but my substantive question to the First Minister is: you clearly don’t believe in open Government, otherwise you’d have a register and we’d have regulations. What are you hiding? What are you hiding?

1. 1. Questions to the First Minister: <p>The Development of Football in Wales</p> (12 Jul 2016)

Neil McEvoy: Do you not think that there’s a contradiction between seeking to increase the number of 4G pitches, and yet, just a mile down the road, there is an all-weather pitch that is locked up? Children are unable to play there because it’s too expensive. Also in this city, in the south of this city, in a very challenged ward such as Splott, the STAR leisure centre is being closed by your Labour...

1. 1. Questions to the Cabinet Secretary for Economy and Infrastructure: <p>Small and Medium-sized Enterprises</p> (13 Jul 2016)

Neil McEvoy: 3. Will the Minister make a statement on the effectiveness of the Welsh Government’s engagement with indigenous SMEs? OAQ(5)0034(EI)

1. 1. Questions to the Cabinet Secretary for Economy and Infrastructure: <p>Small and Medium-sized Enterprises</p> (13 Jul 2016)

Neil McEvoy: Okay, thanks. In terms of engagement, what I’m really talking about is communication. There was a city deal conference last week, with dozens of Assembly officials and over 200 delegates, but there was only one person from a small business. So, I think that needs to be addressed. So, what will you do to ensure, in particular with reference to the city deal, that SMEs will be included and...

QNR: Questions to the Cabinet Secretary for Economy and Infrastructure (13 Jul 2016)

Neil McEvoy: How does the Minister assess the effectiveness of Welsh Government business support?

1. 1. Questions to the First Minister: <p>New Houses in Cardiff</p> (13 Sep 2016)

Neil McEvoy: 4. Does the First Minister stand by his position from 2012 that it is appropriate for Cardiff Council to have plans to build tens of thousands of new houses within the city’s boundaries, with a large number of those on green fields? OAQ(5)0138(FM)

1. 1. Questions to the First Minister: <p>New Houses in Cardiff</p> (13 Sep 2016)

Neil McEvoy: Well, First Minister, you said on 14 June that I’ve lived in a land of fantasy for the past three years. Well, you know, I took it to heart, so I did some more research and found the ‘South Wales Echo’ from 5 April 2012, where you were quoted announcing that Labour would introduce a local development plan under the current system, on page 5. Now, the ‘South Wales Echo’, in its...

7. 5. Statement: Major International Sporting Events (13 Sep 2016)

Neil McEvoy: Diolch, Ddirprwy Lywydd. I’d like to start by congratulating our Welsh Olympians on the way they represented Wales, showing yet again the winning mentality of our country and, of course, I’d like to congratulate the Paralympians currently competing in Rio. I’d like to also congratulate the Welsh football team for their really impressive win over Moldova to get the World Cup qualifiers...

1. 1. Questions to the Cabinet Secretary for Finance and Local Government: <p>Elected Mayors</p> (21 Sep 2016)

Neil McEvoy: Is the Minister aware that many people in Cardiff think that we need an elected mayor? The city is run by invisible people at the moment, effectively elected by a handful of people. Now, I suspect they would prefer to keep it that way. And I understand that Llanishen Labour Party selections now take place in the constituency office of the Member to my left—she may want to confirm that, or...

10. 10. UKIP Wales Debate: Grammar Schools (21 Sep 2016)

Neil McEvoy: Some interesting turns of phrase then. I think the Labour Party did abolish grammar schools when the Labour Party was a Labour Party. I’m not sure what it is now. In terms of the debate, grammar schools are clearly a bad idea. They’re divisive; you write people off at the age of 11. The evidence is there that the system didn’t work, but that’s not to say that what we have today is...
