Over the past few months, in trying to be constructive in scrutinising Government, I've tried to listen carefully to what people are saying because people, generally speaking, understand things. Encouraging them to understand why the Government is doing what it's doing is crucially important, and I truly feel that these regulations have crossed a line in people's minds—from generally understanding and supporting the Government to failing to understand the value of these steps. And we are talking about very harsh measures here, and in parts of Wales that will pay a very heavy economic price as a result of them, and in areas where case numbers are very low at the moment, although that can change. Nobody is arguing that there shouldn't be any restrictions. 

You mentioned Scotland and England, but there isn't a single rule across those territories, and that lack of sensitivity to the different picture in different parts of Wales does play on people's minds. So, please consider the alternative option that we in Plaid Cymru have outlined. If you can't do that, then provide the evidence. Show us in black and white, publish evidence that shows that it's through restrictions as harsh as this on hospitality and a total ban on alcohol that cases are reduced. Tell us what the impact is on well-being, because I am concerned particularly about young people, and tell us what the behavioural science tells us about the risk that people will make even more dangerous choices as a result of this—in gathering and drinking in people's homes, and so on. We need to see that in black and white so that the public can have confidence.
