Questions For - First Minister
What assessment has the Welsh Government made of the value of international cultural events to Wales?
The importance we attach to cultural events like the Llangollen International Music Eisteddfod taking place this week in your constituency is reflected in our new events strategy, which recognises how events can contribute to all the seven national well-being goals. With any events we fund, we set targets for both their economic and social impact.
Will the First Minister provide an update on Welsh Government plans to reform property and estate management charges paid by residents of private housing estates?
We continue to press the UK Government to honour its commitment to extend to freeholders the rights to challenge reasonableness and apply for a new manager to take over the administration of charges. We expect these measures to be included in the upcoming Bill to reform leasehold, due this autumn.
What action is the Government taking to improve access to primary care in South Wales West?
Delivering better access to doctors, nurses, dentists and other health professionals is a programme for government commitment. Reform is ongoing across all contracted primary care services, and increasing access is central to transforming services.
