Part of 2. 2. Questions to the Cabinet Secretary for Communities and Children – in the Senedd at 2:46 pm on 1 February 2017.
Well, it’s all our job. Governments can do many things, but telling people to get out on their bike is one thing I’m certainly not about to do. One of the innovations of last year—and some people were highly critical of it—was the Pokémon Go app that was used on many phones. I know many kids didn’t look up from their phones and banged into walls et cetera, but it got people out and about. That was a really clever innovation about getting people back into their communities. So, there are programmes out there that we seek to do. Ken Skates is a champion of these proposals, and I have regular conversations with him about how we can get more people active in our communities.
