To propose that the Senedd:
1. Recognises the genuine public concern over the First Minister accepting a £200,000 donation for his Labour leadership campaign from a company owned by an individual who has two environmental criminal convictions, and regrets the poor judgement shown by the First Minister in accepting this donation, and his failure to repay it.
2. Regrets the publication of Welsh Government ministerial messages where the First Minister states his intention to delete messages that could have later been helpful to the COVID inquiry in its deliberations around decision making at the time of the COVID pandemic, despite the First Minister telling the UK COVID inquiry that he didn’t delete any messages.
3. Notes the dismissal by the First Minister of the Minister for Social Partnership from his Government, regrets that the First Minister is unwilling to publish his supporting evidence for the dismissal, and notes the former Minister for Social Partnership’s strong denial of the accusations levelled against her.
4. For the above reasons, has no confidence in the First Minister.
