1. Questions to the First Minister: Nuclear Waste (22 Oct 2019)

Neil McEvoy: First Minister, last year, there was an enormous protest here against mud being dumped in Welsh waters that had been dredged from outside Hinkley C nuclear reactor without the full range of testing that could and should have been done. The campaign generated international publicity, with coverage on Al Jazeera, Russia Today, the BBC, German news, Pakistani news, and many other news outlets....

1. Questions to the First Minister: Nuclear Waste (22 Oct 2019)

Neil McEvoy: 4. Will the First Minister provide an update on the Welsh Government's policy on nuclear waste disposal in Wales? OAQ54582

3. Business Statement and Announcement (15 Oct 2019)

Neil McEvoy: Wales is a community of communities, and one community in Wales is the Catalan community. I welcome the comments made earlier by the First Minister expressing concern about what is happening in Barcelona and also what happened in Madrid in locking up democratically elected politicians. I support the call for a debate on what is happening in Catalunya and I'd like the Government to seriously...

1. Questions to the First Minister: The Welsh Government's Lobbying Rules ( 8 Oct 2019)

Neil McEvoy: First Minister, you were elected to lead your party claiming to be a twenty-first century socialist, but the simple truth is that there are no rules on corporate lobbying in Wales, making our Senedd the least protected in the UK and in Europe, in fact. Labour is the party opposing these rules. In the US, democratic socialist Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is working with none other than Ted Cruz to...

1. Questions to the First Minister: The Welsh Government's Lobbying Rules ( 8 Oct 2019)

Neil McEvoy: 4. Will the First Minister make a statement on the Welsh Government's lobbying rules? OAQ54503

1. Questions to the Minister for Economy and Transport: Public Transport in Cardiiff ( 2 Oct 2019)

Neil McEvoy: Minister, in the last week, we've seen extreme flooding in areas of Cardiff, no doubt made worse by the concreting of fields for Labour's disastrous local development plan, and the culling of trees and woodland also. Over the summer, roads were closed for building work for Labour's local destruction plan—because that's the correct term really—and the first of thousands of very expensive...

1. Questions to the Minister for Economy and Transport: Public Transport in Cardiiff ( 2 Oct 2019)

Neil McEvoy: 1. Will the Minister make a statement on public transport provision in Cardiff? OAQ54424

2. Business Statement and Announcement ( 1 Oct 2019)

Neil McEvoy: I'm looking for two statements—first of all on incineration, and I'm looking for a statement from the Welsh Government to ban incineration. The health Minister wrote to the residents of Trowbridge, and he said that adverse health effects cannot be ruled out with incineration. Now, the community are being faced with a proposal whereby an incinerator is going to be placed right in the middle...

1. Questions to the First Minister: The Arbed am Byth Home Energy Scheme ( 1 Oct 2019)

Neil McEvoy: The last time I asked the First Minister about the Arbed am Byth home energy scheme, I informed him that contractors were being encouraged to charge £245 for soft lighting measures, plural, for basically changing light bulbs, as I said last time, and £124 for water measures, which is essentially screwing an aerator into a tap. I got a letter from the First Minister to claim that my figures...

1. Questions to the First Minister: The Arbed am Byth Home Energy Scheme ( 1 Oct 2019)

Neil McEvoy: 4. What assessment has the Welsh Government made of the value for money of the Arbed am Byth home energy scheme? OAQ54425

5. 90-second Statements (18 Sep 2019)

Neil McEvoy: Diolch. The 16 September this week was Owain Glyndŵr Day. Owain Glyndŵr is particularly worth recognising this year, as Wales is quite literally on the march. In three successive All Under One Banner marches in Cardiff, Caernarfon and Merthyr, thousands of people have marched for our nation's sovereignty and independence. I was proud to take part in two of the marches, in Cardiff and...

9. Debate on the General Principles of the Children (Abolition of Defence of Reasonable Punishment) (Wales) Bill (17 Sep 2019)

Neil McEvoy: I don't support smacking, but I also do not support telling other parents how to bring their children up. This is not a child welfare Bill. I know because I tried to amend it but it wasn't possible. My main concern with this Bill is that I think that, if it becomes law, it could make it more easy to abuse children. I campaign to get children's voices heard in cases where they allege abuse but...

3. Business Statement and Announcement (17 Sep 2019)

Neil McEvoy: I'm looking at the Government's statement on making the fight against knife crime an absolute Government priority. I attended a very well-attended vigil in Cardiff recently with lots of parents and lots of young people, and it was an education to listen, especially to the young people talking about how they are affected by knife crime. I'm wondering whether or not Government Ministers or...

1. Debate: Brexit and Prorogation of the UK Parliament ( 5 Sep 2019)

Neil McEvoy: Diolch, Llywydd. If you've ever wondered why we need a sovereign Welsh Parliament in Wales, just look at Westminster. It's a fact now that the Government in London is being run by right-wing UK nationalists. Wales can do better. We cannot rely on Westminster, so we must start preparing to stand on our own two feet, and we need to take control of Wales. The amendment I've introduced looks...

2. Business Statement and Announcement (16 Jul 2019)

Neil McEvoy: I declare an interest as a Cardiff councillor. I'd like a Government statement on private companies running children's care homes in Wales. They will not allow councillors, or indeed parents, access to those homes to visit. This has happened in one case in particular that I'm dealing with where a child has alleged abuse in care continuously—continuously—and neither councillors or parents...

1. Questions to the First Minister: The Arbed Scheme in South Wales Central ( 9 Jul 2019)

Neil McEvoy: First Minister, there's an old joke about how many people it takes to change a light bulb, but the question should be: what does it cost your Welsh Labour Government to change a light bulb in Wales? The answer is up to £245 under Labour's Arbed scheme, because that is what contractors have been encouraged to charge for 'soft' lighting measures—in effect, changing light bulbs. And for water...

1. Questions to the First Minister: The Arbed Scheme in South Wales Central ( 9 Jul 2019)

Neil McEvoy: 7. Will the First Minister provide an update on the delivery of the Arbed scheme in South Wales Central? OAQ54213

2. Questions to the Minister for Health and Social Services: Forced Adoptions ( 3 Jul 2019)

Neil McEvoy: I fully support your policy and the direction it's going, I think the issue is that filtering down, because, on the ground level, children seem to be taken into care far too easily. So, my question is: how can we empower parents? Could we create a professional advocacy service for parents? Because there seems to be a blanket thing called avoiding future emotional harm, and child after child...

5. Statement by the Deputy Minister for Health and Social Services: Improving Outcomes for Looked-after Children ( 2 Jul 2019)

Neil McEvoy: Diolch, Dirprwy Lywydd. Minister—Deputy Minister—I'm really pleased to hear you talking about reducing the number of children in care. The fact that there's been a 34 per cent increase in 15 years is really, really concerning. I'd like to know more about the variations that you're talking about. If there are areas of Wales where the rate of looked-after children is almost three times...
