Huw Irranca-Davies: 1. What representations has the First Minister made to the UK Government regarding the provision of additional financial support to assist jobs affected by COVID-19 in Wales? OQ56126
Mark Reckless: ...for England, but we are getting the vaccine into people's arms less quickly. If the UK Government were in charge in Wales as well as in England, with the same vaccine categories, we would benefit not just from their faster roll-out, but a higher-than-population share, due to our population being older. Thanks to devolution, we don't. Is this what people wanted when they voted in...
David Lloyd: ...the contributions of two excellent Chairs of the committees that I'm a member of, Mick Antoniw and David Rees? They've set the issues neatly before us, because the UK Trade Bill has many flaws, not least that it asks much of the devolved Parliaments yet fails to recognise our democratic right to approve trade agreements reached on our behalf and whose implementation we would govern....
Mick Antoniw: .... We haven't been able to give consideration to the further supplementary LCM that was laid yesterday by the Government for obvious reasons. In our reports, we have expressed significant concerns, not only with the Bills, but also with the Welsh Government's approach to engaging with the UK Government on matters of concern, and these are matters we have raised during evidence sessions with...
Jeremy Miles: ...right to say that this accommodation is inappropriate for the purpose to which it's being put. That is the position of the Welsh Government and we've obviously acted on that basis and made representations in that way to the UK Government. As I mentioned to her, in relation to the underpinning legal infrastructure and framework around the decision that's been taken by the UK Government,...
Jeremy Miles: ...Minister will want me to reassure her that this, in Wales, is devolved to Wales. And in relation to the other point that she makes, about access to visas, we have continued throughout to make representations to the UK Government in relation to the operation of its new immigration system. Probably two years ago, mid 2019, was the last inter-governmental meeting between Ministers in relation...
Jeremy Miles: ...of our society, and obviously in the justice system as well. And I'm pleased that she has highlighted this issue in proceedings today; it's a matter that, as a Government, we continue to make representations to the Ministry of Justice.
Laura Anne Jones: ...due to sportsmen like Sir Lewis Hamilton and all the premiership football teams still taking the knee. Campaigners have made the point, though, that nothing will change unless there is greater representation of BAME people in the higher echelons of sporting organisations. In football, for example, a quarter of Premier League football players are black, however there are only six managers...
Adam Price: ...no doubt that this is a deeply harrowing case and every effort should be made to seek the truth of what happened. Why was Mohamud Hassan arrested? What happened during his arrest? Did he have legal representation? Was there any aftercare? Why did this young man die? Whilst we should not prejudge the outcome of any inquiry, will you commit, First Minister, to doing everything within your...
Julie James: ...strategy to set out clearly how they promote awareness of the work of the council and how its decisions impact on people's lives, and they also explain how individuals can access decisions and make representations to the council, and, importantly, how they can make those views known in good time so that they impact the decision that they're concerned about. As I said in answer to a...
Elin Jones: The next vote is on the Senedd Cymru (Representation of the People) (Amendment) Order 2020. I call for a vote on the motion tabled in the name of Rebecca Evans. Open the vote. Close the vote. In favour 38, nine abstentions, five against. The motion is therefore agreed.
Kirsty Williams: Diolch yn fawr, Llywydd. A number of times today, the curriculum and assessment Bill has been described as 'bold, big and ambitious', and I have to admit at 19:40 this evening, I'm not feeling any of those things, but I will give it my best shot in trying to respond to the points that have been raised. Firstly, can I just reiterate my thanks to all the committees involved? I think there...
15. The Senedd Cymru (Representation of the People) (Amendment) Order 2020
Ann Jones: Item 15 on our agenda this afternoon is the Senedd Cymru (Representation of the People) (Amendment) Order 2020, and I call on the Counsel General to move the motion—Jeremy Miles.
Jeremy Miles: The Senedd Cymru (Representation of the People) (Amendment) Order is the next step in that process. The National Assembly for Wales (Representation of the People) Order 2007 sets out detailed rules for the conduct of elections to the Senedd, and includes provision for legal challenge. Ahead of each Senedd election, the conduct Order is reviewed and amended to take account of any policy or...
Motion NDM7506 Rebecca Evans To propose that the Senedd, in accordance with Standing Order 27.5: 1. Approves that the draft The Senedd Cymru (Representation of the People) (Amendment) Order 2020 is made in accordance with the draft laid in the Table Office on 8 December 2020.
The Senedd Cymru (Representation of the People) (Amendment) Order 2020: For: 38, Against: 5, Abstain: 9 Motion has been agreed
Dawn Bowden: ...who trade with the European Union. They depend on supplies that are from and come through the European Union into Merthyr Tydfil and Rhymney. Would you agree that as 2020 draws to a close, not only are we faced with a shambolic situation, but also a very uncertain future for many jobs in our communities, because the Prime Minister of the UK lied to the people of this country? And can you...
Darren Millar: I'm pleased you've acknowledged the positive work, as I say, and I'm very pleased also that you recognise the work that's been done not only to engage with those countries whereby we have trade arrangements through the continuity trade arrangements, but also those new nations that we will also be doing trade with on a free-trade basis post 1 January. I was wondering whether you could tell me...
Huw Irranca-Davies: I refer Members to my interest in the non-remunerated role in chairing the regional investment Wales steering group, but my question lies outwith the work of that group. I've received representations, Minister, from higher education sector representatives in Wales, with their concerns over the UK shared prosperity fund and the UK Government's proposals. And they note that the UK shared...
