Minutes:
The Committee agreed to write back to the Deputy First Minister to ask for a coordinated response on the cross-governmental approach to this issue, including understanding the position on matters under the Cabinet Secretary for Economy, Energy and Planning’s portfolio, and to copy in all the relevant Cabinet Members (for Economy, Energy and Planning; Housing and Local Government; and Finance and Welsh Language). The Committee would consider the petition again, including whether to request a debate, once that response has been received.
