No, okay. In which case, we'll note that for now and we will move on to item 4.1, which deals with the provisional plant health common framework, and we have paper 5 there, related to this, in your packs. So, I'd invite committee members to note the…

That takes this on, then, to item number 4. We turn to the familiar common frameworks items here, and we have several papers there to note in the pack sent out to Members: a letter from the chair—. Well, it's four items of correspondence under this agenda…

Offerynnau sy'n cynnwys materion i gyflwyno adroddiad arnynt i’r Senedd o dan Reol Sefydlog 21.2 neu 21.3.
Thank you, Gareth. Are we content to note and agree that draft report? We are. Thank you very much. Thank you, Gareth.

Offerynnau sy'n cynnwys materion i gyflwyno adroddiad arnynt i’r Senedd o dan Reol Sefydlog 21.2 neu 21.3.
That brings us to item number 3, instruments that do raise issues to be reported to the Senedd under Standing Order 21.2 or 21.3. And we have one item here, item 3.1, which is SL(6)173, the Local Election Survey (Wales) (Amendment) Regulations 2022. It's a…

Offerynnau nad ydynt yn cynnwys unrhyw faterion i’w codi o dan Reol Sefydlog 21.2 neu 21.3
So, we will get straight under way then with, as normal, our first substantial item of business under item 2: instruments that raise no reporting issues under Standing Order 21.2 or 21.3. Under these, we have item 2.1, SL(6)170, the Council Tax (Joint and…

Just one observation, Chair. The parallel discussion is that the UK have massive investment now in electrification to some of the major metropolitan areas and the north of England and so on; my God, we'd welcome some of that investment in Wales if it was…

Thanks, Chair. It's a really quick one, actually, James. Back in September last year, all the committee members here who are regular subscribers to the TransportXtra online magazine will have been reassured by your quotes within that magazine saying that the…

Okay. Chair, I know we're pressed for time here. I'm wondering whether we write to James for further thoughts on the bus reform programme and the review of funding, the bus fleet, all of this, because they're all pertinent now, because it's the next stage…

So, can you let us into any insights into what interesting discussions may be going on within Government about reviews of fares as we come out of the pandemic and try to effect this modal shift, not only in rail, but perhaps longer term, in terms of buses as…

Yes, indeed. Before I go on to where we might go in the future with pricing and affordability, and it was a big theme of our meeting this morning with a lot of stakeholders and regular user groups and so on—affordability. It wasn't just some of the well-known…

Craffu ar waith Trafnidiaeth Cymru - sesiwn 2
Thanks, Chair. I want to move on to affordability and pricing, both of buses and trains. Where are we at the moment in terms of price increases this year? There was a cap put on of, I think, 3.8 per cent from 1 March on rail tickets. What about bus prices?…

So, Geoff, that raises the question, then: the targets that we do have that Jenny referred to, those are aggregated targets, they're clearly based on assumptions of investment in metro and so on—. I guess the question to you both, as TfW and transport experts…

Craffu ar waith Trafnidiaeth Cymru - sesiwn 2
Thanks, Jenny. It's just building on the point that Jenny just touched on. I'm interested to know how much the targets are granulated down geographically. Because you could do a lot on this in terms of the main routes in and out of our big cities, where there…

Thank you, Chair. James, I wonder if I can ask you—. You mentioned there carrots and sticks; some of the mechanisms we might have at hand are carrot and stick at the same time—things like, for example, prioritising bus and mass transport through things such…

That's quite helpful. So, co-produced and all that jazz, but, actually, you've got to follow the lines of money, and the money will be directed towards not just regional, but national priorities as well—

Thanks, Chair. This sounds like a really good example of co-production, in the classic well-being of future generations of Wales example. What I'm struggling with a little bit—. And I commend that; there should be no surprises, people are working this through…

Cynnig o dan Reol Sefydlog 17.42 i benderfynu gwahardd y cyhoedd o weddill y cyfarfod
So, could I ask Members if they're content under Standing Order 17.42 to exclude the public for the remainder of the meeting, so we can go into private? We are content, and we will do that.
