Cwestiynau i’r Cwnsler Cyffredinol a Gweinidog y Cyfansoddiad
Yn gynharach eleni, Gwnsler Cyffredinol, fe fyddwch yn gwybod—mae'n teimlo fel dau neu dri o Brif Weinidogion y DU yn ôl bellach—fod y pwyllgor a gadeiriaf wedi cynnal ymarfer ymgysylltu â rhanddeiliaid ar fynediad at gyfiawnder yng Nghymru. Un o’r pwyntiau a…

Just a couple of short questions on the hub. I think you've already clarified that it will ultimately be a one-stop shop for all housing tenures, but on the basis that there are some in the able-to-pay group who are keen to commence retrofit now, why can't…

Thank you, Chair. The reason I'm coming in with a supplementary on this is because it's way bigger than the Menai Bridge issue itself, important as that is. It's surprising how long we're spending on this, but I want to ask something really key, because when…

Minister, just one final short question. In general terms, recognising that every river and every stretch of every river is very specific, is the health of our rivers in Wales improving or declining at this moment? What is the data telling you?

Thank you very much. One final question, Minister, because I don't want to tax your voice and your cough at the moment there. I understand that you've been quite keen on the strengthening of water quality monitoring, either by agencies or by citizen science…

No, that's great, Minister. But if your official could answer that question, whether it goes to the detail on a river basis of who needs to do what and by when.

No, I agree entirely. So, will the better river quality taskforce go into detailed individual plans along with the catchment partners for each individual river? And will it asses individually for each river, whether it's the Ogmore in my area or whether it's…

Minister, thank you for that. I'll go into some detail on better river quality—. I've a real sympathy for you; I can see you're struggling with your cough as well. But I'm just wondering—. There are many people out there now who are deeply concerned about the…

Okay. Minister, having declared my interest as salmon champion, what's your assessment of the state of our Welsh rivers, not just for salmon, but generally—for bathing, for water quality, for invertebrates, for everything? What's the state currently of our…

Diolch yn fawr iawn, Cadeirydd. Do I need to declare my interest as the salmon champion?

Yes. Okay. Thanks for that. It's interesting to hear on a committee, even if you don't have huge levers on the Treasury, I think you may have a role somehow in adding to the views and expressing them somehow. Can I just ask one other thing very briefly, which…

Just to follow up on that, in an earlier answer, if I didn't misunderstand, you talked about sometimes there's a difficulty in you straying into issues that are predominantly UK. But one of the infrastructure issues that has a direct impact on Wales is, of…

Sorry, Chair—I said that was the final question, but one final, final question, then. There’s often criticism in Wales that we’re too cosy, too close, everybody knows each other—all this co-production means that it’s pretty much a cosy cartel of people who…

Okay. One final question I have is on a comment that you made earlier, when you said that you would like to see, internally, the Welsh Government rename its department and the relevant ministerial responsibilities as the sustainable transport department…

Okay, can I talk about one that Jenny touched on that's much more immediate, then, which is the culmination of the roads review? It seems imperative that whatever you comment on that also needs to bring forward solutions. The worst thing is if the roads…

Okay, thank you, both, for that. Let me turn to some specifics within your work programme there. Jenny touched on the issue of climate change adaptation and where we are with flooding, but, of course, it's flooding and coastal inundation as well, and we're…

Yes, please. Thank you, Chair. I want to follow up on some of the same areas as Jenny, but, first of all, can I just go back a little bit? I'm going to play devil's advocate. You've gathered together a consortium of generalists—radical thinkers, but…
