Part of 3. 2. Questions to the First Minister – in the Senedd at 2:10 pm on 23 May 2017.
Diolch, Llywydd. First Minister, people across Wales are grieving for those in Manchester and further afield following the horrific events last night. I’d like to pass on my condolences and solidarity with everyone affected. The senseless violence and the fact that there are children and young people among the victims has left the whole of the UK devastated. I know you made a statement earlier on, but can you place on record all of our appreciation for the men and the women of the emergency services and all of those people who have worked overnight and today to treat the wounded and to help those get to safety? It’s worth reiterating, in my view, how much our public service workers are valued at a difficult time like this.
