We will be supporting this Bill today. Don’t get me wrong: I am not suggesting that all Bills should go through a similar journey to that of the Public Health (Wales) Bill through the Assembly, but I do think that the fact that the Bill, to all intents and purposes, went through this Assembly twice—it does show the work done by all parties, including Government and the opposition parties, and this is now a strong Bill before us for Stage 4 consideration today.

I am particularly pleased of the Plaid Cymru amendment that was unanimously supported last week, which will make it a requirement of Welsh Government to draw up a national obesity strategy—the biggest public health problem facing us as a nation, I’m sure. I’m grateful for the Minister’s willingness to collaborate on this issue. The challenge now, of course, is to draw up a strategy that can be truly transformative in terms of the health of our nation.

This isn’t a perfect Bill. We on these benches were very eager to strengthen the Bill in relation to the air that we breathe. We didn’t receive support for those amendments. Having said that, the British Lung Foundation is pleased that the pressure that we put on in this area has led to some movement from Government. But I do have to say that we again heard from the First Minister today that his Government is willing to await the Westminster Government’s strategy in terms of tackling air pollution before drawing up a plan for Wales. He wasn’t even willing to respond to the request from Simon Thomas to set specific targets. However, Plaid Cymru, of course, will continue to press for a comprehensive strategy in order to improve air quality and reduce the dangers of pollution, and I look forward to continuing the discussions with the Government in this area.

But, today, we will support this Bill, which in its entirety is a Bill that we believe can be an important tool in safeguarding the public, safeguarding public health, and encouraging a healthier Wales for future years.
