Minutes:
Members agreed that the petition has been superseded by events because at the time it started there was no England and Wales inquiry. There were restrictions on what a Wales-only inquiry would be able to cover, due to matters that were not devolved, and there was a clear expectation that Wales issues will be considered, and in particular cross-border exploitation issues, in the England and Wales inquiry. It was agreed to close the petition. In doing so the petitioner was thanked for her courage in bringing the issue forward and assured that the matter was being taken seriously.
