Citizens in Wales, including in South Wales East, continue to benefit from initiatives such as our £150 cost-of-living payment, fuel support scheme and discretionary assistance fund. The Welsh Government will continue to prioritise our spending and target action to support the most vulnerable households through this cost-of-living crisis.

(Translated)

Our programme for government makes significant commitments across all Government activity that are designed to tackle health inequalities in Wales. We published 'The Quality Statement for women and girls’ health' in 2022 and the first phase of a women’s health plan for Wales was published by NHS Wales in December.

Despite the absence of serious UK Government engagement, we continue to make the case for devolution through our actions supporting the justice system. For example, even in this challenging time, we have extended our funding for police community support officers across Wales.
