<p>Thank you so much, Mabon ap Gwynfor, for that and for welcoming the quality statement on the whole. I think that we all know that it is very needed, and a tremendous amount of work has gone into it, and I do feel that the standards that we're requiring and setting in this are what women need and expect to feel safe when they're giving birth, wherever they choose to give&nbsp;birth. I also hear you on these concerns that women have. I have many friends who have given birth and are going to be having children as well, and I was listening to something the other day on a podcast that said that we seem to be in a mindset at the moment where it's almost expected that something will go wrong, and it's almost rare and special if you have&nbsp;what's considered a good birth. Actually, it should totally be the other way around. You should feel as though, on the whole, you're going to have the best experience, you're going to feel safe, you're going to feel cared for, you're going to have the best quality medical care if you require it, and that those cases should be the outliers. They should be the ones that very, very rarely happen. That's what we want to be seeing, and it is happening in many places as well, but I also want women to really feel that, and I hope that that's what's going to come through in this quality statement today from Welsh Government, that we're very, very aware of those anxieties, and we're really now going to, as people always tell us to, grasp that nettle to really do something about it.</p>
<p>So, I totally agree with what you were saying about mental health, of course, perinatal mental health—the mental health of women giving birth is absolutely crucial. One of the best teams I've had the chance to meet so far is actually in Betsi Cadwaladr&nbsp;University Health Board. I met the team up there who do a lot of the pre-talks with the mams before they give birth, they go through things like their triggers, they go through the things that might be sensitive, where they might feel particularly vulnerable.&nbsp;What they're finding is, by doing that pre chat, it's making a huge difference and women feel much more safe and in control when they're going in to give birth, and that's something that we want to see for everybody.</p>
<p>I also want to say that they will always have access to mental health support as well, and that's not only for mothers, but that's also for the fathers as well. So, you've been hearing Mark Williams, who is a friend of mine, who has been really championing the support that&nbsp;dads&nbsp;also need to have to be able to support in their family, and also&nbsp;the support that you mentioned of the staff themselves. So, I&nbsp;went and met with the maternity team who are at Cardiff and Vale University Health Board, and I was&nbsp;saying to them, 'What do you do, though?', because, obviously, there are times when there is a loss of a baby and that will impact them too, and they said that there's a free helpline that they have that's paid for by Welsh Government for all health staff and social care staff as well. I was like, 'Is that actually helpful? Is that something that we should keep investing in?' And they were like, 'One hundred per cent.' They thought it was absolutely tremendous. So, again, hearing that directly from them was amazing, and that's available to all. And maybe that's something that we need to push a little bit more.</p>
<p>In terms of the report that you mentioned and where we are currently, I will ask the Cabinet Secretary to write to you on that, but also there is absolutely the expectation that the health board and the NHS will diligently work together to deliver on everything that we've set out in this quality statement. They are required to develop a perinatal quality surveillance dashboard as well, with key standardised metrics that inform both network-level and national oversight, which, in turn, will inform that policy direction. So, I hope that that answers your question as well about what we&nbsp;will potentially be measuring in the future. I think this quality statement is quite detailed in the seven priority areas and the 10 commitments that we're looking for, but also, then, as we start to gather more information and more of this data to go with the perinatal quality surveillance dashboard, I think that we will start seeing those targets being set in place. It wouldn't be for me to set them in place, but they will be set in place.</p>
<p>I also wanted to come to your question about Singleton and Swansea bay, and a question that we get asked a lot: how are we ensuring that the failings aren't replicated again? Because they were failings, and my heart goes out to every single family, and I thank them for their bravery, really, in reliving to make sure that it doesn't happen again. I wanted to say that maternity and neonatal services at the health board were escalated, as you know, to level 3, enhanced monitoring, in December 2022, and they are being supported to make the necessary improvements by Welsh Government and the NHS executive. Good progress is being made, as highlighted in the reopening of Neath Port Talbot Hospital Birth Centre, and the home birth centre as well, in October of last year. Babies are now being born again in Port Talbot, as they should be—sorry, they were always being born in Port Talbot, but now they're being born in Port Talbot in the birth centre, to clarify.</p>
<p>In November 2023, of course, Swansea bay commissioned an external review, which I think is imperative, of maternity and neonatal services to provide the assurance to the health board and the reassurance to the families in respect of services delivered and to identify opportunities for service improvement. The board also agreed to the establishment of an oversight panel reporting directly to the board, and the review will examine the safety and effectiveness of the current service. The latest update that I can give you is that the health board provided an update on progress to their board in January 2025, last month, and the update received from the health board in January 2025 indicated that the review is on track to complete this summer.</p>
<p>So, I hope that was all the questions you asked me. If not, I'm—. Oh, Tommy—sorry, we talked about Tommy and Sands and I did want to answer on this one, because, again, this is my area and I work quite closely with Sands.&nbsp;I did read through the annual report that they set out for last year, for 2024. I always welcome having these reports and I also always welcome having reports based on the UK as well. I think they're a really good opportunity for us to really face the reality and to hold ourselves to account. What I would say is that I thought it was very interesting that they made the point that it's not just about the funding, which, of course, they were absolutely calling for—that we always have that increase in funding to go along with inflation. But they also said that it's not just about the funding, it's also about having the national care levels, those standards, those national standards of care—that's what they were calling for, that's what this is. So, I hope that they see this and that they're able to see that we are listening and we're not shying away from this—we're being accountable and transparent. And we've set out a quality statement now, where we expect all of our health boards to be accountable and transparent and to reach these high standards that we have set. Diolch.</p>

<p>It's been raised at the cross-party group on public transport as well, and by union representatives. Okay. Do we all agree with that? So, we're going to close the petition and then we will all speak out on the issue. And we've got the Bill coming forward, haven't we, as well—the bus Bill.</p>
<p>Moving on, item 3.9, which is&nbsp;P-06-1454, 'Calling Welsh Government to provide urgent mental health support for New Dads'. It&nbsp;was submitted by Mark Williams, with 295 signatures. So, could I invite Vaughan to comment on this?</p>

<p>Yes, excellent. Thanks. Yes, and it's a very live issue. And, I think, in terms of keeping that open and awaiting what's being produced at the moment, that would be the right course of action, and it's also a very important matter to come to this committee. So, I would like to thank Mark Williams for submitting this petition, which we will keep open, pending those actions.&nbsp;</p>
<p>We're going to move then to item 3.15,&nbsp;P-06-1474, 'Stop Natural Resources Wales closing Bwlch Nant yr Arian, Coed y Brenin &amp; Ynyslas visitor centres', and it reads:</p>
<p>'Closure of these centres runs contrary to the Wellbeing of Future Generations Act 2015.</p>
<p>'The closure of these visitor centres would have a far-reaching negative impact on the local economy, environment, and community well-being.'</p>
<p>I'm going to take this petition regarding Natural Resources Wales's visitor centres back to back with item 4.1—thank you—which is about the singular Ynyslas national nature reserve, but I'm going to speak to each one individually. So, the submitter of this petition is Gareth Jones. It has 13,245 signatures, 8,720 from Wales only. And there is some background to this, so I'd like to invite Peter Fox to discuss this and the actions that you wish the committee to take, please. Peter.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Thank you very much. And what an interesting petition, so thank you, again, to Manon. And our course of action will be to write, for that clarification, to the Minister to assess what is happening in this regard.</p>
<p>Moving on, we're going to go to item 3.14, P-06-1454, 'Calling Welsh Government to provide urgent mental health support for New Dads'. The petition states that:</p>
<p>'Fathers with perinatal mental health problems are up to 47% more likely the risk to be rated as a suicide risk than at any other time in their lives'.</p>
<p>And that says that's from Quevedo et al, 2010 research.</p>
<p>'New research also shows that a new father has a 22% risk of anxiety and depression during the perinatal period. Birth Trauma effects at least 30,000 women in the UK and fathers are witnessing the trauma and not getting help for PTSD. Fathers also go through baby loss and need to support the baby on neonatal wards.</p>
<p>'We want the Welsh Government to set up support for fathers in perinatal mental health teams across Wales. We also want fathers to receive support with finance up to six weeks.'</p>
<p>The submitter is Mark Williams. It has 295 signatures, 261 from Wales only. I would like to ask Luke Fletcher to discuss this and a little bit of context around this petition, and the actions that you would put forward for this committee to progress. Thank you, Luke.</p>
