Part of the debate – in the Senedd at 5:39 pm on 27 September 2022.
It's really positive to see this legislation coming forward. It's a bit overdue, but I'm glad to see it's coming forward. One part of the Bill is about animal welfare, and in the explanatory memorandum points 7.514 to 7.531 set out actions and targets for the Welsh Government regarding what the Bill will do around TB, sheep scab, antimicrobial resistance, et cetera. Do you think, Minister, that the Bill goes far enough to actually help end TB in Wales, to end sheep scab in Wales and put that regulatory framework in place to help us get the highest animal welfare standards in the country?
