Did you mean representations -taxation?
Mick Antoniw: ...ensuring the commission's success will be its composition. It must be capable and independent. It must be as representative as possible of the society with which it will engage. This will include representation from a breadth of political and civic backgrounds. It must also be able to demonstrate expertise, and its members must represent all ages and be drawn from the widest possible range...
Julie James: ...the findings from the Skidmore review that the UK Government needs to confirm long-term funding to support the scaling up of hydrogen production. And I hope, Janet, that you will be making strong representations to colleagues in Westminster, off the back of Chris Skidmore's excellent review, to ensure a greater level of funding is available to support future hydrogen projects across all...
Russell George: ...Government is consistently, I’d say, playing catch-up here. The UK Government has already implemented proposals making it easier to upgrade existing sites and build new masts, and, in spite of representations from the mobile network operators and from myself, correspondence to your previous Minister, Carl Sargeant, still we have not reformed permitted development rights here in Wales,...
David Rees: I think, this afternoon, we’ve seen that, like most Members across the Chamber—Leanne Wood, Lynne Neagle, Mark Isherwood—have highlighted, we all receive many representations from families who have children or siblings living with ASD. They often come into our offices angry, stressed, anxious, exhausted, and sometimes holding back tears, as they explain the hardships they’ve...
Rebecca Evans: ...to those young people. I think that these progressive discussions that we have can only be for the good. I'll just go on now, I suppose, to start to conclude by thanking all of those who set out representations, and those who have participated and co-operated through the process of setting the budget. Once again, we've delivered a budget in really trying circumstances, highlighting the...
Dawn Bowden: ...looking after historic places of worship, and foremost of its actions was setting up a places of worship forum to share information and best practice and review ongoing needs. The forum attracted representation from across the sector and for several years used its meetings as an opportunity to learn from a range of projects across Wales. These physical meetings were, of course, halted by...
Darren Millar: ...the poor quality of some of the financial information, which has already been referred to by the chair of the Finance Committee—it was corrected once during the process. We’ve since had further representations from SNAP Cymru about the cost of dispute resolution. We had information, as well, late in the day, about the role of the designated educational clinical leads and how many other...
Mark Reckless: ...that before, but UKRep is having to change what it did and is looking to Wales, to be fair to the CBI and to some of the other larger private sector organisations, for how it adjusts its diplomatic representation to a world that will have a greater focus on soft power rather than institutional levers within the European Union. I want to say a bit about the Basque and the Quebecois...
Lynne Neagle: ...in which the committee improved the Bill was to include a duty on local authorities and NHS bodies to have due regard to the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child, which came as a result of our representations and those of the children's commissioner. Flying Start is regarded as one of the Welsh Government's flagship early years programmes. We chose to undertake a focused inquiry on the...
Vaughan Gething: ...But we also need to recognise that, as a distinct nation within the UK, it isn't just about whether Welsh Ministers are there, it is the reality that, if we are not there, there will be Government representation; it will simply be that the UK Government will be there in the region on our behalf and they would be taking all of the Government-directed engagements and interviews instead of...
Alun Davies: ...there are issues that need to be addressed, but I think that if this Bill is to work and the transformation programme is to deliver our vision, then we want to see a reduction in the need for legal representation and legal support. That is one of the criteria against which we will judge this Bill in the future. Whenever I debate and discuss any of the services available to children under...
Andrew RT Davies: ...that that group has done is admirable to say the least. In closing, I would just like to touch on the additional learning needs Bill that is currently going through the Assembly. I’ve taken some representations, in particular from Diabetes Cymru, that have touched on health needs that, at the moment, in the way the Bill is drafted, don’t sit within the Bill—they sit within the...
Rhianon Passmore: ...route areas. The Welsh Government has led the way in strongly demanding that Wales's railways are properly funded. Earlier this week, in direct response to Welsh Government's continued and vocal representations, Network Rail has unveiled a £2 billion cash pot of public money for the historically underfunded Wales and borders routes from 2019-24. This is the first time the funding plan for...
Angela Burns: Diolch, Llywydd. I'd like to thank everyone who took part in today's debate, and I'd particularly like to thank David for drawing us all together, cross party, to make representations. I think we have to be crystal clear about that word 'cancer', it is something that still today strikes fear and panic in most people's hearts. We still see it as 'the big C', the thing that can come out and get...
Janet Finch-Saunders: ...instances of undiagnosed type 1 diabetes. This has been supported in evidence received by the Petitions Committee from Diabetes UK, the children and young people's Wales diabetes network, through representation from Dr Christopher Bidder, whose letter is supported by a number of health boards, as well as the Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health. The Royal College of Nursing has...
Julie James: ...public intervention rate as the programme gains momentum and the benefits to all parties are recognised and appreciated. Although not limited to small businesses, the competitions have seen strong representation from our SMEs. Funding levels will vary, but projects typically span two or more years, with initial funding of up to £100,000 for each successful company. The best will then be...
Julie James: ...£23.6 million as a result of the Welsh Government's final budget allocations. This includes £13 million to support local services overall, recognising the responses to the consultation and the representations made by Assembly Members; £1.2 million to provide an improved settlement floor; £7 million a year recurrently to support the increase to the capital limit in charging for...
Hannah Blythyn: ...together, both employers and workers have a collective interest in the shared benefits of fair work. Trade unions should be front and centre of this work; they are the best route for collective representation in the workplace and have a central part to play not simply in driving up terms and conditions but more broadly in unlocking our economy as whole. With this in mind, alongside the...
Vikki Howells: ...to inform constituents about the closure of the Co-operative Bank in Aberdare. This wasn't the first bank in the town to close and, indeed, I have to say, the town, quite rarely, does have a good representation of banks and building societies, but what that post did was to tap into the public psyche and the general feeling that people have that our banks have a social duty to retain a...
Kirsty Williams: ...base. The board has reached a unanimous consensus that the academy should be a company limited by guarantee. This would enable a flexible governance structure, which can better accommodate sector representation, would have a legal form favoured by the Charity Commission, and could employ staff in its own name. I have therefore instructed officials to start scoping the timescale and...
