Arranged by Siambr: Topics are assigned by Siambr, not the Senedd: from the portfolio an item’s title names, else a keyword in the title. A vote takes the topic of the debate it decided.

These are counts of ballots, not stances. A vote on a motion is not a position on a topic.

How often a phrase is said

A count of words in the Record of Proceedings, sitting by sitting. It is not a measure of how much attention a topic got.

Matching ignores case, takes whole words only and needs the exact phrase. There is no stemming and no synonyms: “bus” does not match “buses”. Separate variants with commas, such as “bus, buses”.

English text of a speech given in Welsh is the Record’s own translation. One language is counted at a time, so no speech counts twice.

A division takes the policy domain of the debate it decided, read from the item number in its motion text. An item's domain comes from the portfolio its title names ("Questions to the Cabinet Minister for Health and Care"), else from the first keyword its title contains, else none. With no debate, the motion's own heading is read for a keyword. Counts are sums of named ballots. A ballot on a motion is not a position on a topic. A Member is listed by their speaking contributions on the domain's items, out of all their speaking contributions; chairing is not counted, and no speech has a topic of its own.
