Part of 1. Questions to the First Minister – in the Senedd at 2:18 pm on 15 June 2021.
Thank you very much once again to Huw Irranca-Davies for that question, and I do agree with him: it's one thing for the Government to do things—the Government here, or local authorities—and there are lots of things that we can do, and there are lots of things that we are going to do in the future, but it's another thing to persuade people to do the things that we can all do in our everyday lives. In my opinion, the most effective way to do this is through persuasion, to put everything in place to help them, and to persuade people, when they travel in a way that doesn't lead to climate change or changes in local environmental conditions, they're helping; they're helping their families and they're helping children and they're helping the community where they live. When we can persuade people to behave in that fashion, they can do everything that they can do and use the facilities that the Government can put in place to help them.
