Part of 2. Questions to the Minister for Rural Affairs and North Wales, and Trefnydd – in the Senedd at 2:31 pm on 13 October 2021.
You make some very pertinent points around the price of wool. I'm trying to think—I think it was the end of the last term of Government where we saw the wool prices really drop and I had meetings with the British wool authority to try and see what we could do to help Wales. I made representations to the UK Government along with ministerial colleagues from Scotland.
Certainly, the Minister for Climate Change, who obviously has responsibility for housing and for retrofitting, I know has had discussions around this, because, as you say, wool is a very good insulator. So, if that's one way we can continue to help support Welsh wool, we will certainly be looking to do that. I'm not sure how far the Minister has got with her discussions, but I know she has had initial discussions around this.
