Part of the debate – in the Senedd at 2:52 pm on 16 January 2018.
Thank you for both of those. On the first one, I'm the Cabinet Secretary responsible for the Gypsy/Traveller sites, and I am planning to bring a statement before the Easter recess to the Senedd in order to update people on where I am since I took over the portfolio on a number of issues. However, the Member did mention some very specific issues around particular sites that he has an interest in and I'd be more than happy to meet with the Member to go through some of those very specific issues. I have made arrangements to visit some of the sites in question as well, so it would be good if the Member made an arrangement to speak to me about the very specific issues. But, on the more general points, I will be bringing forward a statement in the near future.
In terms of the local bus services point, he raises a very important point. He did say he was awaiting an answer to his written questions, and I would suggest that the Member waits to see what the answer to the written question is, and if there is a more general point that he then wishes to raise with the Cabinet Secretary that would be of interest to the entire Senedd, I'm sure that the Cabinet Secretary will be prepared to look at that, since it is a year since the bus summit took place.
