It was my pleasure to be there. Such a great campaign and lovely to speak to some care home residents who told me how their lives have been changed for the better.

This morning, civic and community leaders will lay wreaths to remember all those affected by the Aberfan disaster on this day in 1966.
My thoughts are with the community changed forever by the loss of 116 children and 28 adults on that terrible day 59 years ago.

A look at some of the Senedd business this week. One main feature will be the introduction of the Draft Budget as proposed by the Welsh Government.
After presenting the Draft Budget there will of course be much discussion, scrutiny and debate as we move towards a vote on the final Budget.
