Register of Interests of Assembly Members NATIONAL ASSEMBLY FOR WALES REGISTER OF MEMBERS' FINANCIAL AND OTHER INTERESTS AND RECORD OF MEMBERSHIP OF SOCIETIES REPORT OF THE REGISTER OF MEMBERS' FINANCIAL OR OTHER INTERESTS [top] UPDATED 31 MARCH 2011 Introduction 1. Section 36 of the Government of Wales Act 2006 and Standing Order 31 require the National Assembly to maintain and publish a register of interests of Assembly Members. 2. Members are required to register any relevant interests within eight weeks of taking the oath or affirmation and also register within four weeks any changes to those interests. Section 36(7)(a) of the Government of Wales Act makes it an offence for any Member to participate in proceedings of the Assembly without having registered a relevant interest as specified in the Annex to Standing Order 31. The responsibility for complying with the duties to register and declare interests rests with Members alone, although they may seek advice from the Assembly Parliamentary Service. Thresholds 3. Part 5 (iv) of the Annex to the Standing Order 31 provides for the establishment of thresholds over and above which Assembly Members are required to register gifts, hospitality and other material benefits or advantages. An Assembly resolution in May 2006 established the threshold for the registration of gifts and hospitality as 0.5% of the basic gross annual salary for an Assembly Member (which is currently approximately £253). 4. Some Members choose to register a number of matters that fall below the stipulated thresholds. They are entitled to do this if they so wish. However, it should be stressed that those Members who have observed the thresholds have thereby complied precisely and in full with the rules as laid down in the resolution of the Assembly. Categories of Interests 5. The form for National Assembly Members to register their interests is prescribed by the Presiding Officer and has the following eleven categories: Category 1: Directorships Category 2: Remuneration Employment, Office, Profession, etc Category 3: The Names of Clients Category 4: Gifts, hospitality, material benefit or advantage Category 5: Remuneration or other material benefit Category 6: Financial sponsorships Category 7: Overseas visits Category 8: Land & Property Category 9: Shareholdings Category 10: Public bodies Inspection of the Register 6. The Register of Members’ Interests is maintained in the Table Office of the National Assembly for Wales. It is open to public inspection on the Internet or in the Table Office itself during opening hours.

History 6 2.1 Origin of the term 6 2.2 Early usage 6 2.3 Fathers of the House 7 2.4 Previous qualifications 7 2.5 Possible elections for Father of the House 8 Appendix: Fathers of the House, since 1901 9 3 Father of the House Summary The Father of the House is a title that is by tradition bestowed on the senior Member of the House, which is nowadays held to be the Member who has the longest unbroken service in the Commons. The Father of the House in the current (2019) Parliament is Sir Peter Bottomley, who was first elected to the House in a by-election in 1975. Under Standing Order No 1, as long as the Father of the House is not a Minister, he takes the Chair when the House elects a Speaker. He has no other formal duties. There is evidence of the title having been used in the 18th century. However, the origin of the term is not clear and it is likely that different qualifications were used in the past. The Father of the House is not necessarily the oldest Member.

    Y Gwir Anrh/Rt Hon Carwyn Jones AC/AM Prif Weinidog Cymru/First Minister of Wales Ann Jones AM Chair Committee for the Scrutiny of the First Minister National Assembly for Wales Cardiff Bay Cardiff [email protected] 29th March 2018 Dear Ann, I am writing in response to your letter of 15 March following my appearance before the Committee in Newtown on 16 February. My responses on each of your points are below. Welsh Government support for businesses participating in trade missions Developing new export business requires a certain level of investment of time and money from companies. The Welsh Government contributes to this investment with both free and subsidised advice and support. Companies should not see trade missions as the first step towards exporting. Whilst they are a good way of assessing the potential opportunities in a market, they require a significant amount of advance preparation to ensure companies can maximise the benefit from their time in market. A great deal of support is available to help companies prepare for the trade missions, much of which is free or heavily subsidised. As I mentioned in Newtown, sharing the cost demonstrates a joint commitment and partnership between the company and Welsh Government. The cost of participation is substantially subsidised and, if a company is serious about exporting, then this should not be a barrier to joining a trade mission. There are three different types of intervention to take a company to market which are: Food and Drink Trade Development visits; attendance at major trade shows; and multi-sector trade visits.

  • Regional Profile Ebbw Vale & Blaenau Gwent
    Regional Profile Ebbw Vale & Blaenau Gwent Content Ebbw Vale Overview of Ebbw Vale & Blaenau Economy of Ebbw Vale Gwent & Blaenau Gwent Workforce Skills Addressing Youth Unemployment Summary > > Overview of Ebbw Vale History Ebbw Vale is a town at the head of the valley formed by the Ebbw Fawr tributary of the Ebbw River in Wales. It is the largest town and the administrative centre of Blaenau Gwent county borough. Originally a rather insignificant spot in rural Monmouthshire with only about 120 inhabitants but at the end of the 18th century, Ebbw Vale—and the whole valley—was transformed by the Industrial Revolution. The Ebbw Vale Iron Works, later to become the Ebbw Vale Steelworks, opened in 1778, followed by the opening of a number of coal mines around 1790. At its height (1930s — 40s) the steel works in Ebbw Vale was the largest in Europe, although attracting very little attention from German bombers during World War II. By the 1960s around 14,500 people were employed in the works in and around Ebbw Vale, but the end of the century witnessed a massive collapse to the industry. A strike in 1980 was followed by closures and redundancies which resulted in the dismantling of many of the old plants. In 2002 only 450 were employed in the old industries, and by July of that year the final works closed. > Overview | Economy | Workforce Skills | Summary > Overview of Ebbw Vale Ebbw Vale Today The largest regeneration project in Wales is currently underway on the former Steelworks However, significant recent investment in Blaenau Gwent includes: site – including the opening of a new Learning Zone, Leisure Centre, housing, industry and The • Over £100 million for the Learning Works Scheme at The Gwent Archives.
