8. Welsh Conservatives Debate: Regulation of animal rescue and rehoming centres (24 Nov 2021)

Cefin Campbell: Dirprwy Lywydd, any delay in regulating rescue and homing activity compromises the welfare of dogs and cats, risks the loopholes in current dog breeding legislation continuing and undermines the effectiveness of pet vending laws, prohibiting third party sales and puts Wales behind other UK nations, as we've already heard. Some in the sector are concerned that this issue is being pushed into...

8. Welsh Conservatives Debate: Regulation of animal rescue and rehoming centres (24 Nov 2021)

Cefin Campbell: I'm very grateful for the opportunity to discuss this important issue today, namely animal welfare. It's an issue that I'm sure each and every one of us believes is important, because our constituents are of course very concerned about this issue. Indeed, data from 2019 suggests that a quarter of the Welsh population owns a cat and one in three is a dog owner—the feline friends and the...

1. Questions to the Minister for Social Justice: Poverty (24 Nov 2021)

Cefin Campbell: Thank you very much for that detailed response. As you know, one in three children in Wales lives in poverty, and rural poverty is particularly pertinent to the region I represent and often goes under the radar: fuel poverty; areas with low salaries and low gross value added in comparison to the Welsh average; and a paucity of crucial services. As you know, living costs are expected to...

1. Questions to the Minister for Social Justice: Poverty (24 Nov 2021)

Cefin Campbell: 7. How is the Welsh Government is tackling poverty in Mid and West Wales? OQ57238

10. Debate: The Welsh Language Commissioner’s Annual Report 2020-21 and the Commissioner’s second 5-year report (23 Nov 2021)

Cefin Campbell: I'm very pleased to be able to contribute to this debate today, but, before moving on, I do want to give heartfelt thanks to the commissioner for his work and his unstinting commitment to the Welsh language. The Minister has already mentioned the benefits of bilingualism, and I, too, am very proud to have two languages, because two languages means twice as much choice, of course, and I want...

6. Statement by the Minister for Education and Welsh Language: The Welsh Language Communities Housing Plan (23 Nov 2021)

Cefin Campbell: Thank you very much, Minister, for this statement. I warmly welcome the statement. And as has been said by Mabon ap Gwynfor, I am very pleased to see that so many exciting and crucial policies for our Welsh-speaking communities have been included in the agreement between us as two parties. I welcome the ambitious aims and objectives outlined in this statement today, and I look forward to...

QNR: Questions to the First Minister (23 Nov 2021)

Cefin Campbell: What support does the Welsh Government give to companies in Pembrokeshire to help them reduce their carbon emissions?

7. Motion under Standing Order 26.91 seeking the Senedd's agreement to introduce a Member Bill: The Food (Wales) Bill (17 Nov 2021)

Cefin Campbell: And just to conclude, Dirprwy Lywydd, I am very fond of the reference to eradicating all kinds of food waste. The Plaid Cymru manifesto called for targets to halve food waste from farm to fork by 2030. It appears that 400,000 tonnes of food is wasted every year by homes in Wales. So, I conclude by saying this: it is possible that Government might argue that all of this could be done in a...

7. Motion under Standing Order 26.91 seeking the Senedd's agreement to introduce a Member Bill: The Food (Wales) Bill (17 Nov 2021)

Cefin Campbell: In terms of your extremely important aim of delivering a more sustainable, localised food system and strengthening the public procurement aspect, certainly this is something Plaid Cymru's always supported and we want to see an increase in the number and viability of local food supply systems. Currently, too much Welsh produce is being shipped out of Wales for processing, with the loss of much...

7. Motion under Standing Order 26.91 seeking the Senedd's agreement to introduce a Member Bill: The Food (Wales) Bill (17 Nov 2021)

Cefin Campbell: Thank you to Peter Fox for bringing this draft Bill forward for us to consider as a Senedd. I am happy to support the Bill, and I am prepared to support the opportunity for it to mature as the process goes ahead because I do believe that this Bill could help to provide a food system that is genuinely appropriate for future generations. And a great many of the objectives of the Bill happen to...

2. Questions to the Minister for Rural Affairs and North Wales, and Trefnydd: Questions Without Notice from Party Spokespeople (17 Nov 2021)

Cefin Campbell: Thank you. It's clear therefore that supporting Welsh farmers isn't a high priority for the Tories in Westminster. Now, in moving on and looking more particularly at future farming policy beyond the current funding, one of the concerns expressed by the sector is the capping of payments. To date, the Welsh Government has refused to commit to capping payments that would make the most of the...

2. Questions to the Minister for Rural Affairs and North Wales, and Trefnydd: Questions Without Notice from Party Spokespeople (17 Nov 2021)

Cefin Campbell: Thank you very much. Of course, the Conservative Government in Westminster hasn't only broken its pledges on climate change for the second year on the trot. We've seen promises broken on funding for agriculture in Wales. Now, the relative cuts to agricultural funding and rural development announced in the comprehensive spending review last month break a manifesto pledge made by the...

2. Questions to the Minister for Rural Affairs and North Wales, and Trefnydd: Questions Without Notice from Party Spokespeople (17 Nov 2021)

Cefin Campbell: Thank you, Llywydd. As we look beyond COP26, we must now, of course, turn our words into actions to tackle the climate emergency. During the summit, there was an agriculture day and leaders within the farming sector in Wales made ambitious and very firm commitments to help Wales reach its net-zero ambitions. Of course, we understand that we need a viable agricultural industry in Wales to...

QNR: Questions to the Minister for Rural Affairs and North Wales, and Trefnydd (17 Nov 2021)

Cefin Campbell: Will the Minister make a statement on the Welsh Government's plans to address the impact of fireworks on animal welfare?

3. Statement by the Minister for Rural Affairs, North Wales, and Trefnydd: The Bovine TB Eradication Programme (16 Nov 2021)

Cefin Campbell: And the last point, Minister, is around vaccination. Where vaccination is available, it has a role to play, clearly, in TB eradication, but it can only be used to prevent and not to cure the disease. Field trials with cattle TB vaccination, as you've already outlined, are under way, and you are hoping an effective vaccine will be available by 2025, so my question is: how confident are you we...

3. Statement by the Minister for Rural Affairs, North Wales, and Trefnydd: The Bovine TB Eradication Programme (16 Nov 2021)

Cefin Campbell: May I also thank the Minister for her statement? I will keep this quite brief because I don't want to rehearse many of the things that Sam Kurtz has already said that I happen to agree with.  Let me start by saying that bovine TB continues to have a destructive impact on agriculture in Wales, not only in terms of its economic impact, but also the emotional and mental health impact that the...

QNR: Questions to the First Minister (16 Nov 2021)

Cefin Campbell: Will the First Minister make a statement on delayed transfers of care in the Hywel Dda University Health Board area?

6. Plaid Cymru Debate: Fisheries and aquaculture (10 Nov 2021)

Cefin Campbell: I thank Mabon as well, who was surprised, as many of us are, with the lack of strategy, and referring to the extractive economy: once again, Wales's wealth being lost to external nations. About 10 per cent, he mentioned, of Welsh fishers benefit from the payments made in Welsh waters. Mabon also referred to the lack of regulation in this area, and the need to establish a regulatory body, not...

6. Plaid Cymru Debate: Fisheries and aquaculture (10 Nov 2021)

Cefin Campbell: Thank you, Janet, for championing Conwy mussels. I'll have to try them one day. You're absolutely right to highlight the lack of targeted action, and it is quite astonishing that this hasn't happened over the last few years. You were asking and imploring the Minister to involve the industry in future planning, and the Minister has given an affirmative response to that, saying that she is...
