Part of the debate – in the Senedd at 5:38 pm on 13 March 2019.
I thank the previous Member for his contribution and support for our motion. I think that's a really important point, point 2 in our motion: we recognise the hard work of the front-line staff in the organisation, and acknowledge their dissatisfaction and lack of confidence in their senior leadership. We've seen that from the staff surveys. We say at the end of our motion that we want an independent review or inquiry into the organisation's failings, to investigate alternative proposals, and I think one option has to be doing away with the organisation and doing something different. If, however, the new management manage to finally turn around this organisation and we do see real signs of improvement, we're open to that. I mean, I myself, I started, in terms of my exposure to NRW, as the Chairman of the Climate Change, Environment and Rural Affairs Committee. [Interruption.] I'll give way.
