1. Questions to the First Minister: Insulating Houses (14 Jun 2022)

Janet Finch-Saunders: Between now and 2028, Wales will need to recruit, on average, an additional 2,000 full-time equivalent workers to carry out the highly technical challenge of decarbonising homes in Wales. Now, during a recent Climate Change, Environment and Infrastructure Committee meeting, Mark Bodger, from the Construction Industry Training Board, highlighted that there has always been an appetite for...

5. Statement by the Minister for Health and Social Services: Update on Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board ( 7 Jun 2022)

Janet Finch-Saunders: Well, I wish they'd come and see me in my office. 

5. Statement by the Minister for Health and Social Services: Update on Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board ( 7 Jun 2022)

Janet Finch-Saunders: Yes, I know. I've got to be honest, things are so bad, Deputy Llywydd—

5. Statement by the Minister for Health and Social Services: Update on Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board ( 7 Jun 2022)

Janet Finch-Saunders: I will get to it. But it's a fact, and it's been raised by Plaid Cymru, the current model simply doesn't work. I asked you two weeks ago, Minister, whether we could have a meeting of north Wales Members, yourself, the chairman and the chief executive, and then we could have some full and frank discussions. Will you now agree to that meeting, please? That's all I have to ask.

5. Statement by the Minister for Health and Social Services: Update on Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board ( 7 Jun 2022)

Janet Finch-Saunders: Thank you. Whilst I thank you for the statement, Minister, I would like to thank my colleagues Darren Millar and Rhun ap Iorwerth more for actually calling you out on this statement, because it's far too inadequate. I've been here 11 years, and, prior to that, I had dealings, going back over the years, with the Betsi health board, under the late Mary Burrows, when she was the chief executive....

2. Questions to the Minister for Rural Affairs and North Wales: Agricultural Productivity (25 May 2022)

Janet Finch-Saunders: Thank you, Minister. Andrew Bailey, the Governor of the Bank of England, has warned of—I can never say this—

2. Questions to the Minister for Rural Affairs and North Wales: Agricultural Productivity (25 May 2022)

Janet Finch-Saunders: I can never say that word. Yes—global food price rises. In fact, prices are rising at the fastest rate in 30 years. I don't think that the Governor is entirely right that we are helpless in the face of surging inflation. There are steps that we can take here to try and mitigate some of the inflation on the cost of food. We could ramp up food productivity here in Wales. David Edwards, NFU...

1. Questions to the Minister for Finance and Local Government: Funding for Care Homes (25 May 2022)

Janet Finch-Saunders: Thank you, Minister. I was quite shocked very recently to find out that Care Forum Wales have revealed that fees paid by local authorities in north Wales are up to £11,000 a year less per person than those on offer from their counterparts in south Wales. The reality is that a 50-bed care home in Torfaen will receive £546,000 a year more for providing residential care than a similar sized...

1. Questions to the Minister for Finance and Local Government: Funding for Care Homes (25 May 2022)

3. Debate: The Platinum Jubilee (24 May 2022)

Janet Finch-Saunders: As the elected Member for Aberconwy, this is, indeed, an honour and a privilege to take this opportunity to congratulate Her Majesty on the occasion of her Platinum Jubilee, and also to say thank you for the invaluable service that she continues to provide here in Wales. We've had the honour of her presence in north Wales on numerous occasions. In fact, my home town of Llandudno welcomed her...

2. Business Statement and Announcement (24 May 2022)

Janet Finch-Saunders: I would like to request a statement from you, Trefnydd, in your capacity as Minister for rural affairs. With the brutal and illegal conflict in Ukraine continuing to rumble on, I've been delighted to see the UK Government take leadership on the refugee crisis, with hundreds of families now being given the opportunity to rebuild their lives here in Wales and across the UK. However—and it was...

1. Questions to the First Minister: Recycling Rates (24 May 2022)

Janet Finch-Saunders: First Minister, I'm sure that you would join me in thanking the 7,000 people in Wales who have signed up to take part in the Big Plastic Count. Their selflessness and their efforts will now provide a national snapshot of the plastic waste problem that actually plagues our communities. However, there is no denying that further action needs to be taken to tackle the plastic plague. WRAP Cymru...

7. Welsh Conservatives Debate: Child and adolescent mental health (18 May 2022)

Janet Finch-Saunders: They've gone back, Lynne, since then, though.

5. Debate on the Climate Change, Environment, and Infrastructure Committee report: Report on the Welsh Government’s marine policies (18 May 2022)

Janet Finch-Saunders: I'm pleased that the report has been tabled for debate today. Fifteen of the recommendations have been accepted, and five accepted in principle. That does sound good, but I'm afraid the marine sector could be described as being let down when considering the detail.  In response to recommendation 1, the Welsh Government has committed to report on the effectiveness of the Welsh national marine...

3. Topical Questions: Ysbyty Glan Clwyd (18 May 2022)

Janet Finch-Saunders: Okay, I will do. Thank you, Deputy Llywydd. Minister, when the health board was placed in special measures in 2015, improvements were required in leadership and governance. The HIW report highlighted serious concerns. So, is it the case that, seven years on, these special measure objectives still haven't been fulfilled? That was question 1. And a final question, Deputy Llywydd: Minister, you...

3. Topical Questions: Ysbyty Glan Clwyd (18 May 2022)

Janet Finch-Saunders: Yes, I'll come to it now.

3. Topical Questions: Ysbyty Glan Clwyd (18 May 2022)

Janet Finch-Saunders: You've allowed others, allow me, please.

3. Topical Questions: Ysbyty Glan Clwyd (18 May 2022)

Janet Finch-Saunders: They're routinely accommodated in the waiting room; that high-risk patients aren't subject to any consistent or ongoing checks. That could be any one of our relatives or the relatives of our constituents. Compliance with—

3. Topical Questions: Ysbyty Glan Clwyd (18 May 2022)

Janet Finch-Saunders: Minister, we already knew, as local Members, that, Ysbyty Glan Clwyd is not a good-performing emergency department in Wales. I'm just sad, myself, to read the report and learn that it is now the worst-performing emergency department in Wales. In March 2022 only 44.1 per cent of patients were seen within the four-hour target; 62.4 per cent within the eight-hour target; and 1,351 people spent...
