Motion NDM6174 as amended:

To propose that the National Assembly for Wales:

Notes the Annual Report for 2015-16 by the Older People's Commissioner for Wales.

Notes the work of the Older People's Commissioner to tackle the impact of loneliness and isolation on older people living in Wales and calls on the Welsh Government to do more to address this matter.

Notes that, to ensure that older people have a strong voice in line with the Older People Commissioner's recommendations, the Welsh Government should consider introducing an Older People's Rights Bill to extend and promote the rights of Wales's older people.

Notes the importance of public services provided by local government to the health and well-being of older people, and regrets that continued financial challenges as a result of austerity are hindering the provision of these services.
