First of all, I'd like to thank the Minister for reaching out to the unions to make sure that they were aware of the lockdown discretionary grant scheme, because this is something that I'd raised with the Deputy Minister with responsibility for ethnic minorities and equalities before the end of the lockdown, and, as mentioned by Helen Mary, many of these taxi drivers don't have Welsh or English as their first language. And so, at the very end of last week, I know that Unite submitted 1,000 applications that they'd helped taxi drivers complete because they were struggling to do it on their own; they really were. And unfortunately, there is a huge amount of need. It's been drastically oversubscribed in Cardiff, so I hope there's something we can do about ensuring that the inverse care law doesn't apply to taxi drivers, and that those most in need, who need most help getting the documentation together, are not going to be locked out, having no assistance whatsoever.

I enthusiastically support your efforts to encourage taxi drivers to embrace zero-carbon vehicles, so that they can understand that this is actually a much cleaner and, at the end of it, a more cost-effective way of running their business. But, clearly, there's going to be a need for some very carefully constructed loan schemes that are affordable, given that most taxi drivers have seen their income this year fall off a cliff. But, clearly, we need to move towards that, given that petrol vehicles and diesel vehicles are going to be phased out anyway.
