Speeches by Chadwick.

“To follow up on the consistency point, is it consistently good or consistently bad?”

“Thank you both for being here. How consistent is the provision of housing and related support to prison leavers across Wales?”

“Chloe, Nacro provides CAS-2 accommodation in Wales on behalf of the Ministry of Justice. How many people have you supported through this provision in the last year? Are there any plans to expand the number of places available in Wales?”

“Thank you, Katie. What role does housing play in ensuring the successful rehabilitation of prison leavers when they enter the community?”

“Will the Minister give way?”

“Apples and pears provide essential nutrients, such as vitamin C and folate, and they count as one of our five a day, as recognised by the NHS Eatwell guide. Does the Minister agree that any attempt to include fruit juice in the HFSS category risks sending the wrong messages to families at a time when fruit and vegetabl…”

“My hon. Friend makes a valid point, and I am sure her constituents will be pleased to hear her make it. The 2018 cross-border statement of values and principles promised that no patient would face delay or disadvantage because of which side of the border they live on, but my constituents know that those principles are …”

“I beg to move, That this House has considered cross-border healthcare. It is an honour to serve under your chairmanship, Mr Dowd. Last year, hopes were raised that two Labour Governments working together would put an end to conflict between Cardiff Bay and Westminster, yet few issues trouble my constituents more than t…”

“First, NHS waiting lists in Wales are not falling; Wales has the highest waiting list in the United Kingdom. Nearly a third of our population are stuck on waiting lists. I wanted to intervene to make the Minister aware that I agree that extra funding is required to tackle the waiting list that we face in Wales. But whe…”

“Will the Minister give way?”

“My hon. Friend is right to say that these system failures are putting extra responsibility, extra stress and often extra cost on individuals, which is why the system needs to be improved. Beyond the funding and IT problems, our systemic weaknesses make cross-border care even harder. Many Powys residents are registered …”

“I commend the Minister for paying tribute to William Powell, who has campaigned for justice for 35 years for his son, Robbie Powell, who died as a result of medical negligence. William Powell has done so much to secure this legal duty of candour, so it is right that he is acknowledged here in this debate, but he is sti…”

“Will the Minister give way?”

“Ms Scott, what powers does Estyn have to compel prison leaders to address inadequate education and training findings? As a liberal, I find this a very interesting question. Particularly, as a party, we are very interested in powers and the extent of an organisation’s powers. It would be helpful if you could expand on t…”

“During the second world war, over 200 people were forced to leave their homes and give up their land in the Epynt when more than half of the community was taken for use by the Ministry of Defence. The people of the Epynt understood why that sacrifice had to be made, but now, Bute Energy and its wealthy investment backe…”

“You cannot do that to prisons.”

“Following on from that question, are the education and employment opportunities available to prisoners in Wales appropriately aligned with the needs of employers and the abilities of the learners?”

“Can you tell local authorities what to do?”

“Do you have a view on how to make it easier for businesses to train and recruit prisoners?”

“Good afternoon and thank you for joining us. I have three questions and I am sure the Chair would appreciate it if we asked for succinct answers, please. The first two questions are for all three of you. How satisfied are you with the level of education and employment support available to prisoners in Wales and Welsh p…”
