Notes that approximately 40 per cent of the workforce is employed in the 'Foundational Economy' supplying essential goods and services such as: infrastructures; utilities; food processing, retailing and distribution; and health, education and care. 2. Recognises that these sectors are often more resilient to external economic shocks and have considerable potential to generate greater local value from the provision of localised goods and services. 3. Regrets that many of the sectors within the Foundation Economy are marked by low paid and insecure jobs 4. Calls on the Welsh Government to develop a strategy to maximise the impact of the 'Foundational Economy' across Wales as part of its work on developing a new economic strategy, including measures to improve employment conditions in those sectors.

  • Mps Supporting MND Won't Wait
    Name Constituency Statement Bethan Aberavon Jenkins Sion Jones Arfon [E-mail to constituent – seeking permission to add] Sian Gwenllian Arfon [E-mail to constituent – seeking permission to add] Kirsty Williams Brecon and [E-mail to constituent – seeking permission to add] Radnorshire Carwyn Jones Bridgend [E-mail to constituent – seeking permission to add] Sam Gould Caerphilly If elected I would ask the Welsh Government to ensure best practice and support is implemented right across Wales and to ensure that diagnosis for MND is prompt and accurate. Elin Walker Cardiff North Hapus i gefnogi MND! Jones Happy to support MND! Julie Morgan Cardiff North I am supporting the MND Won't Wait campaign. Thank you for highlighting how crucial a prompt and accurate diagnosis of MND is. Neil McEvoy Cardiff North Patients should not have to wait the time they do. Anthony Cardiff South and Slaughter Penarth Dr Dafydd Cardiff South and I'm very pleased to support the 'MND Won't Wait' Campaign. One of the main planks of our health Trystan Davies Penarth policy is investment in diagnostic centres, waiting times across a range of serious health conditions including MND are unacceptably high, and by improving diagnosis times, patients will get better care. Name Constituency Statement Sean Driscoll Cardiff West Congratulations on the fantastic work that you do. In the event I am elected, you can be rest assured that I will be in contact to discuss your manifesto. Alistair Carmarthen West and I am very happy to champion MND in my community and if elected to the Assembly. I support a Cameron South Pembrokeshire prompt and accurate diagnosis of MND, ensuring best practice in care and support (like the new NICE guidelines) is implemented in Wales and will support local campaigns for councils to adopt the Charter.

  • System Reboot: Transforming Public Services Through Better Use of Digital
    Transforming public services through better use of digital: An expert panel report for the Welsh Government System Reboot Transforming public services through better use of digital: An expert panel report for the Welsh Government Front cover: Ysgol y Bynea, courtesy of Allison Hurren © Copyright2 Lee Waters 2018 Introduction Digital solutions to problems have become commonplace, but there is a gap emerging between the digital expectations of citizens and the reality of Welsh public services. When my son was receiving regular care from a consultant I asked if I could avoid the car journey and a morning’s lost school for him by Skyping into the clinic instead. The answer was no. When I saw a local nurse about a minor skin condition I was asked to make a fresh appointment with a GP to have a photo taken to send away for examination. “It’s ok, I can take a photo and WhatsApp it to you”, I said, “I’m not concerned about privacy, I’ve read that the Security Services can’t even hack it”. The answer was no. I’ve since heard of some GPs who are developing their own digital workarounds but, as ever, this approach is patchy. After accessing a private GP service via an app on my smartphone within 8 minutes of checking availability, it’s a frustration to then spend 30 minutes repeatedly calling on the phone to get an appointment with my local NHS GP surgery. These are just anecdotes based on a few of my own personal experiences, but they demonstrate that the digital expectations that have been set by our everyday experiences of Google, Amazon and Facebook clash with the reality of the way public services work.

  • Fuel Expenses , File Type: PDF, File Size
    E-mail request Our ref: ATISN 15106 Date: 24 May 2021 Dear ATISN 15106 Thank you for your request, which I received on 28 April 2021. You asked the following: With regard to Assembly Member for Llanelli Mr Lee Waters, has submitted fuel expenses claims totalling £12,466.10, what date are these expenses for EG 2020-2021 and provide the exact date and destination of each journey claimed by Mr Waters? I can confirm that Welsh Government does not hold information on Members of the Senedd – this would need to be requested directly from Senedd Cymru via [email protected]) With your agreement I would be happy to transfer your request to Senedd Cymru for that organisation to consider your questions. However, if I do not hear from you by Wednesday 26th May, Welsh Government will take no further action on your request. With regard to your final question as to what fuel allowance are ministers allowed to claim per mile, Welsh Government Ministers are able to claim 45p per mile. Any information on the allowance paid to Members of the Senedd would again need to be requested from that organisation. If you are dissatisfied with the Welsh Government’s handling of your request, you can ask for an internal review within 40 working days of the date of this response. Requests for an internal review should be addressed to the Welsh Government’s Freedom of Information Officer at: Information Rights Unit, Welsh Government, Cathays Park, Cardiff, CF10 3NQ or Email: [email protected] Please remember to quote the ATISN reference number above.
