Thank you, Deputy Presiding Officer. I move the motions.

The Regulation and Inspection of Social Care (Wales) Bill was passed unanimously almost two years ago. It provides a statutory framework for the regulation and inspection of social care services and regulates the social care workforce in Wales. A significant series of subordinate legislation does emerge from the legislation and it's important, for the benefit of those in receipt of care and support and the providers, for us to get this right. My officials have worked closely with the regulator and the sector in order to develop regulations that are proportionate, robust, and meet the needs.
