Part of the debate – in the Senedd at 4:14 pm on 7 March 2023.
As Plaid Cymru's spokesperson for equality and social justice, I'd like to support the points made by Jane Dodds on the investment in the DAF and also echo the comments made by Llyr Gruffydd and Heledd Fychan on the importance of the investment in universal free school meals and expansion of free childcare as a result of the co-operation agreement with Plaid Cymru. Jenny Rathbone's point on the importance of ensuring that the money that is being spent by the Welsh Government on support is reaching people's pockets quickly and consistently throughout Wales is key, I think, and Plaid Cymru, of course, would like to see a system where that is done on a statutory footing in order to ensure this.
