Part of 3. Topical Questions – in the Senedd at 2:47 pm on 28 November 2018.
No, I don't think it's the time. I refer you to my original answer and the work that I've done with NRW. I've just mentioned all the new appointments that have been brought in this year. I think you have to recognise, and you clearly don't in your questioning, the excellent work so many of the staff do. If you think about storm Callum recently, they protected homes, they protected businesses. They deliver our internationally acclaimed projects. So, let's just think about the staff morale, shall we, for a little while, because I think that really needs to be recognised by the Welsh Conservatives. I meet with many members of staff, as does my colleague the Minister for Environment, and I think we need to think about them a little bit more. So, in answer to your question, I do have full confidence in them. I mentioned the new chief executive, I mentioned the new interim chair and I mentioned the new five board members. I do think they're best placed. I don't think there's any support for Natural Resources Wales to be changed.
