Part of 2. Questions to the Leader of the House – in the Senedd at 2:39 pm on 28 February 2018.
Yes. We've spent a lot of money, as Members across the Chamber will have heard me say on a number of occasions, on extending superfast broadband right through Wales, and that has a number of effects, not least allowing telemedicine and so on to take effect, so that we take better care of our population as a whole, and specifically those who have any kind of mobility or distance issues. That's very much part of the reason we've spent very large numbers of millions on the roll-out of that digital infrastructure.
I will say, however, to the Member that I have a fundamental problem really with the start of what she said, because one of the issues we now face is the difficulty of attracting migrants of working age into the Welsh economy as a result of her party's pushing of a particular migration policy with which I fundamentally disagree. So, actually, restricting immigration for breeder-age populations, which is what largely migrant populations actually are, is a fundamentally backwards step in readjusting our economy.
