I realise that. England has a plan published for all to see. Wales 'plan' is done in 3 week chunks which keeps us in the dark. When we had the two week firebreak last year, the scientific advisors said three weeks would be much more beneficial. Drakeford replied that we couldn't afford three weeks because of the impact on Welsh business.
The following month, on Dec 20th he put us in lockdown again and its still ongoing. Where is his interest in Welsh business now? He needs to publish a plan to give business and families some hope and quality of life.
As an example Ive booked a haircut but my hairdresser won't know until Friday 12th whether he will be allowed to open on Monday 15th, just ridiculous for businesses to try to work on those sorts of timelines.

Also 30% of the population of Wales have had a Covid jab. That's the main reason that things are improving throughout the UK. When the current lockdown started no one had received a vaccination. He has to be bold enough to realise that keeping levels down should be relatively straightforward as the jab roll out continues, and get focussed on trying to get the Welsh economy back on it's feet
