Part of 1. Questions to the First Minister – in the Senedd at 2:13 pm on 18 June 2019.
Well, Llywydd, I agree that it’s important to have the resources. I know that Cadw is doing a great deal of work in creating local resources and using new possibilities to convey that information to people. When I visited Conwy castle recently, I saw many people touring the castle with their phones, and, on the phones, there was a lot of information that Cadw had given them. So, they don’t have to buy leaflets, they can just tour the site and see or hear the information. Lots of such things have been created officially by bodies such as Cadw, but there are many local societies—and I know that there’s one in Ruthin—that do a great deal of work to create resources for visitors and tourists throughout the whole of Wales. I also know that the Minister for Education is doing a lot of work in creating resources in the new curriculum. Looking forward, to be clear, Welsh history will be a core part of the work that will be done in schools, with the resources to support that work.
