Part of the debate – in the Senedd at 2:09 pm on 19 May 2021.
Thank you, Llywydd, and thank you to the First Minister for his welcome to us as brand-new Members to the Senedd.
The Scottish Government has a Cabinet Secretary responsible for culture and one responsible for sport. The Westminster Government has a Secretary of State responsible for culture and sport. But, despite your comments on culture and sport at the beginning of this session, once again, here in Wales, we have a Deputy Minister with responsibility for culture and sport. Why are culture and sport less important to the Welsh Government than to other Governments?
