MEMBERS of the Senedd demanded fair funding for Wales, housing and disinvestment in Israel’s economy at First Minister’s Questions (FMQs) today.

Plaid Cymru’s Sian Gwenllian asked for a commitment to a fair funding settlement and a rise in the housing support grant for next year after she explained the housing crisis is affecting every part of Wales. 

She said: “Homelessness and sleeping rough are increasing with the numbers of people sleeping rough doubling, and the number of people who die having slept rough also doubling over the past few years.”
