Thank you for the question. The Welsh Government recognises the importance of breastfeeding, and is committed to its promotion and increased uptake. Public Health Wales have responsibility for delivering this programme, and are leading national breastfeeding week, from 20 to 26 June. This will include a social media campaign and supporting professionals with local events, and I do hope that AMs across the Chamber will support and promote that week, and breastfeeding more generally.
