Did you mean representations NOT taxation speaker:David Lloyd?
Rebecca Evans: Thank you for raising this and, of course, the Member will be aware that Welsh Government has, over a long period, made extensive representations to the UK Government about its bedroom tax and the fact that it is unfair to parents and families who find themselves in a variety of circumstances, such as that which you describe, but also parents and people who are disabled, for example, who need...
David Rees: Minister, I hope your last point is true, because, as you say, it becomes a separate commercial entity and they will look for the cheapest deal they can get, not necessarily the best deal they can get. Therefore, clearly, the implications for Port Talbot are serious and our concerns are for Port Talbot, but also for the workers in Trostre, because it's a package—it's a whole package across...
Jeremy Miles: ...starting with the contribution that Mick Antoniw made. I'm pleased to hear him restate my understanding that the committee recommends the principles should be agreed. He spoke about the importance not just of the accessibility of law, but of access to law more broadly. I full-heartedly endorse that objective. It's one of the driving ambitions of the Bill. Yes, the democratic accountability...
Kirsty Williams: ...practice. Before imposing a fine, Qualifications Wales must give notice to the awarding organisation concerned, setting out the reasons for the proposal and giving the body the opportunity to make representations. Qualifications Wales must also have regard to these representations, and if it still intends to impose a monetary penalty, it must set out the reasons for doing so, including the...
Mark Isherwood: ..., just above us in the Senedd—a Going Gold for Autistic Acceptance 2019 event, where user-led organisations are promoting autistic acceptance and strengthening the autistic voice. As they say, 'nothing about autism without autistics.' Acceptance is an action. Don't just be aware, act. And if all we're going to do is simply raise awareness, we're just going to make waiting lists grow...
Suzy Davies: ...and why the difficult task of local government funding reform, when that might begin, because it's just too easy to try and shut down the debate, as we heard in earlier questions and some of the representations today, by pointing the finger at the UK Government. If that's all you're going to say in replying to this debate, Minister, we may as well all go home now, because constituents are...
Mr Neil Hamilton: Diolch yn fawr iawn, Llywydd. Last July, I raised with the Minister the subject of non-stun slaughter and in particular representations that had been made to her by the British Veterinary Association, to which she said that she'd had a discussion with them a couple of weeks ago and asked officials to look at the information they'd brought forward in detail. It's now nine months since those...
...Withdrawal Agreement or remain in the EU. 4. Calls on the Welsh Government to make a statement to the Assembly detailing the steps they have taken to prepare for a people’s vote and what representations they have made to the UK Government to this effect.
Jane Hutt: I thank Dawn Bowden not only for her question, but also for that excellent example, and would also like to celebrate that local success. Wales is a warm and welcoming country, and that’s exemplified by the Heddlu Bach initiative in Fochriw and the involvement of those schools. It’s a Mini Police scheme, and it’s something that we need to share across Wales, but it’s the young people...
Jane Hutt: Thank you again, Leanne Wood, not only for the account of your experience, as I'm sure we can across this Chamber, in terms of online abuse of women, we cannot afford to let the bullies win, as you say, and thank you as well for the further evidence you have given. That will be very important in terms of the statement that I wish to make and the representations that I am making to the UK...
David Rees: ...commercially sustainable sector in a competitive global market.' Many of the levers that we have talked about in the past—the energy costs—are with the UK Government. Will you now make further representations to the UK Government, supporting this committee's report and asking the UK Government to take action to address the issue of high energy costs, to ensure that our steel industry...
Helen Mary Jones: ...for themselves. I think the points made particularly by David Rees and Leanne were about women's different life experiences, about how much more they depend on the state pension. It was literally not possible for my constituent, Rose, to save in an employer's pension scheme, because she wasn't allowed because of her sex. Those women's lives have been very different and we owe them...
Jane Hutt: I welcome the opportunity today to bring some consensus about the representations that we can make on behalf of the women in Wales who are so adversely affected by these changes. Many women in this age group will have worked part-time, often in more than one part-time job, in low-paid roles, taking time off work to care for children or elderly relatives. Many have experienced inequality, as...
Jane Hutt: ...that, in fact, Helen Mary, it amounts to 195,000 women in Wales. I can say today that we support this motion in full. Although pension matters aren't devolved, the Welsh Government has made strong representations about the impact of the pensions Acts of 1995 and 2011 disproportionately affecting women who've had their state pension age raised significantly without effective or sufficient...
Darren Millar: ...hunger strikes by Leyla Güven and others. They have made it clear that the UK expects Turkey to ensure that prisoners' human rights are observed, including access to medical treatment and legal representation, and that all sides in this conflict, all stakeholders, need to return to the peace process. And to this end, the UK Government has provided funding to civil society organisations...
Jeremy Miles: ...the European Union, and, obviously, they are reasonably significant. It's one of the sectors where, in my discussions directly with the chair of the Migration Advisory Committee, and in the formal representations that the Government will be making to the UK Government, we've identified the issue of the social care workforce as one that requires a particular approach in terms of protection...
Jeremy Miles: ...piece of work in relation to the qualifications make-up of the public sector workforce across Wales generally, including in the education sector, and that has been the basis of a lot of the representations we've made in the Brexit context particularly to the UK Government and beyond. But this is an area where work is absolutely under way at the moment. I know the Minister for Education is...
...reserved to the UK Government and Parliament, Section 62 of the Government of Wales Act 2006 provides that 'The Welsh Ministers, the First Minister and the Counsel General may make appropriate representations about any matter affecting Wales'. 2. Recognises the substantial Kurdish community in Wales. 3. Notes that a resident of Wales—İmam Sis, a young Kurdish man—is on an indefinite,...
...against terrorist attacks by the PKK. Amendment 3—Darren Millar Delete point 7 and replace with: Recognises that the aim of the hunger strikers is to enable Abdullah Öcalan access to legal representation and contact with his family. Amendment 4—Darren Millar Insert new point after point 8 and renumber accordingly: Notes that the UK Government’s Foreign Secretary and Her Majesty’s...
...born on or after 6 April 1951, who have unfairly borne the burden of the increase to the state pension age (SPA) with lack of appropriate notification. 3. Calls on the Welsh Government to make representations to the UK Government in support of the WASPI campaign. 4. Calls on the Counsel General to consider what action the Welsh Government could take in relation to the expected litigation...
