Part of 1. Questions to the First Minister – in the Senedd at 2:21 pm on 21 September 2021.
I thank Laura Anne Jones for that and congratulate her, of course, on her appointment as an ambassador in this very important field. She'll be well aware, I know, of the whole-system approach that we've been developing in schools in Wales, and the contribution that the reformed curriculum will make to safeguarding young people's mental health. I know that my Cabinet colleague Lynne Neagle, who has such a passionate interest in all of this, will welcome the Member's interest in the area and would, I'm quite sure, be very pleased to meet her to talk about some of the issues that have been raised today, and to make sure that we make available to schools and young people the fullest range of resources they can draw on to make sure that health and well-being—physical and emotional well-being—are safeguarded as children, we hope, grow out of the very difficult experiences that they have had to live through over the last 18 months.
