11. The Restricted Roads (20 mph Speed Limit) (Wales) Order 2022 (12 Jul 2022)

Darren Millar: I just wanted to correct the record. There was reference there to the plastic bags. We were not against that. In fact, we proposed the charge for plastic bags.

11. The Restricted Roads (20 mph Speed Limit) (Wales) Order 2022 (12 Jul 2022)

Darren Millar: You said that we resisted. Check the Record.

11. The Restricted Roads (20 mph Speed Limit) (Wales) Order 2022 (12 Jul 2022)

Darren Millar: Will you take an intervention? So, as I said earlier, one of the problems with the current system where they can make the change to 20 mph is the length of time that that takes. If you're going to introduce this change—and I urge you not to—but if you are going to introduce this change and you manage to get the votes to do so today, will you assure us that you will have a compact, short...

11. The Restricted Roads (20 mph Speed Limit) (Wales) Order 2022 (12 Jul 2022)

Darren Millar: That's right, and, of course, you could reduce the speed limit to 15 mph or 10 mph and even have a shorter stopping limit. I don't think it's necessarily the fact that this is a 20 mph proposal that is the issue, because, as I say, I've supported 20 mph in certain places. It's about whether this is the right use of resources in order to improve safety on our roads and in order to get people...

11. The Restricted Roads (20 mph Speed Limit) (Wales) Order 2022 (12 Jul 2022)

Darren Millar: I'll happily take one.

11. The Restricted Roads (20 mph Speed Limit) (Wales) Order 2022 (12 Jul 2022)

Darren Millar: I wasn't going to take part in this debate—

11. The Restricted Roads (20 mph Speed Limit) (Wales) Order 2022 (12 Jul 2022)

Darren Millar: —but having listened to the arguments, I just wanted to make a short contribution. Look, I've been a Member of this Senedd for 15 years, and over those 15 years I've campaigned for 20 mph zones in some parts of my constituency. We've been successful in securing some of them, and the Minister's quite right: it takes too long to secure them. But it takes too long because of guidance from the...

2. Business Statement and Announcement (12 Jul 2022)

Darren Millar: Thank you, Trefnydd, for your statement. Can I ask for a written statement please from the Minister for Health and Social Services on the impact of tourism on health services, particularly in north Wales? As you will know, north Wales is a beautiful place for people to visit, and we have many thousands of people who come to enjoy everything that we've got to offer on our doorstep, but one of...

6. Motion to annul the Non-Domestic Rating (Amendment of Definition of Domestic Property) (Wales) Order 2022 ( 6 Jul 2022)

Darren Millar: I'll happily make an intervention. Most operators would absolutely love for their properties to be occupied for more than 50 per cent of the year, but that is simply not the reality in many parts of Wales. And I don't think that you imposing this arbitrary 50 per cent occupancy rule throughout the year is very fair, Minister. I'd love you to come to meet with some of the very small businesses...

2. Business Statement and Announcement ( 5 Jul 2022)

Darren Millar: Llywydd, I'd like to request a statement from the health Minister on the delivery of the north Denbighshire community hospital. Back in 2013, the then health Minister, who, of course, is now the First Minister, made an announcement that a new hospital would be built in Rhyl to replace the two previously closed hospitals of the Royal Alexandra Hospital and the Prestatyn Community Hospital. He...

4. 90-second Statements (22 Jun 2022)

Darren Millar: This week marks Armed Forces Week across the United Kingdom, a week that brings together our armed forces community, including servicepeople, their families and the organisations that support them. It provides an opportunity for people across the country to show our appreciation for the work that they do. As part of the week, we held Wales's Armed Forces Day in the city of Wrexham on...

2. Questions to the Minister for Education and the Welsh Language: Medical Training through the medium of Welsh (22 Jun 2022)

Darren Millar: I absolutely concur with the points that have been made by Siân Gwenllian about the need to make sure that we've got doctors coming through the system who are proficient in the Welsh language. It's also really important, of course, that those who are in the education workforce, teaching, who do have Welsh language skills are able to continue to use them. I raised in the Senedd yesterday a...

1. Questions to the Minister for Climate Change: New Housing Developments (22 Jun 2022)

Darren Millar: Thank you for that answer, Minister. I do appreciate the position of the Welsh Government on this matter. I’ve been contacted by many residents in Colwyn Bay regarding a potential development in the Pwllycrochan area in the town, and, unfortunately, as you will appreciate, many of the schools in the town are bursting at the seams, there’s a lack of dentists, our healthcare facilities are...

Group 19: Sixth forms (Amendments 161, 162, 76, 163, 164, 165) (21 Jun 2022)

Darren Millar: I have to say that I don't share the optimism of the previous speaker about the safeguards that are in place in the Bill. I believe that, fundamentally, people should be able to express a choice about the provision that they want to attend in their locality. I think that learners should have every opportunity to enjoy a breadth of provision, whether they want to undertake their extra post-16...

1. Questions to the First Minister: Access to Education (21 Jun 2022)

Darren Millar: Thank you for that response, First Minister. I was actually raising the question because of concerns about access to further education for some of my constituents. You'll be aware of the excellent provision that there has been over many years at Coleg Llysfasi, which is just outside Ruthin, which provides agricultural courses and animal-related courses as well, in terms of their small animal...

Darren Millar: 7. What action is the Welsh Government taking to promote access to education in rural Conwy and Denbighshire? OQ58201

4. 90-second Statements (15 Jun 2022)

Darren Millar: Diolch, Llywydd. This week marks the fortieth anniversary of the liberation of the Falkland Islands, following their invasion by Argentinian forces on 2 April 1982. The small British overseas territory in the south Atlantic was liberated by British forces on 14 June. The conflict saw 26,000 service personnel deployed in the air, on the ground and on the sea, and they were deployed to defend...
