The next item is the 90-second statements. There is one statement this week, and that's to be presented by Caroline Jones.

Diolch, Llywydd. October marks Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and aside from wearing pink, I want to mark it in another, more personal way—to talk about my journey with breast cancer, to point out that you can survive this terrible disease, and to urge women across Wales to take the threat seriously, and to check, check, check.

It has been 13 years since I found a suspicious dent in my breast, a dent that indicated there was a cancerous tumour beneath it. And thanks to finding it early, and some amazing doctors and nurses, I am still here. It took five operations and gruelling chemotherapy, but I am here to tell the tale of how I survived one of the biggest killers in Wales of women. And I can think of no better way to pay tribute, to give thanks, than by helping to raise awareness by marking Breast Cancer Awareness Month. I urge every woman in Wales to regularly check their breasts for lumps and bumps and dents, and if they find anything suspicious, to get it checked out.

In my spare time, I often talk to people on a one-to-one basis as a buddy for breast cancer, and people tell me that it really does help. Despite coronavirus, the NHS is still open for business. Please don't leave it. Please get it checked. I am living proof that you can survive breast cancer if you contact people early enough, and I send my love and support to all people undergoing tests and treatment for breast cancer. Diolch yn fawr. 

We will now take a short break.
