The Covid inquiry heard one scientist called for face mask rules to come in sooner, while an expert said shutting schools would mean 'loss of life expectancy' for children.
Now today's session has ended, here's a look at who will be appearing before the Covid inquiry next week. Witnesses will include Sir Frank Atherton, chief medical officer for Wales, who will appear before the inquiry on Monday morning, while Dr Andrew Goodall, former chief executive of the NHS Wales and now permanent secretary of the Welsh government, will be a witness on Tuesday.
Simon Hart MP, who was Welsh secretary until July 2022, will appear on Friday afternoon, and we’ll also hear from various officials, including from Public Health Wales, throughout the week. The full list of who will appear next week is available here . The names of those appearing for the third and final week of the inquiry – which is likely to include senior government officials, including First Minister Mark Drakeford and former Health Minister Vaughan Gething – are expected to be released sometime next week.
