Sesiwn graffu gyda’r Cwnsler Cyffredinol a Gweinidog y Cyfansoddiad
Thanks, Counsel General. I don't want to dwell on this overlong at the start of this session, although some of the areas you've touched on we'll come back to, and individual Members will want to pick up on as well; I'm sure they will. But can I just ask…

Cynnig o dan Reol Sefydlog 17.42 i benderfynu gwahardd y cyhoedd o weddill y cyfarfod
We have scooted through business there, some of which we will return to in private, but can I simply ask colleagues for their consent now under Standing Order 17.42 to resolve to exclude the public for the remainder of the meeting so we can move into private?…

It brings us to item No. 4 quite quickly, which is our scrutiny of common frameworks. We have, under this item, first of all, item 4.1, common frameworks, the provisional public health protection and health security common framework. We've had—. I invite you…

Offerynnau sy’n cynnwys materion i gyflwyno adroddiad arnynt i’r Senedd o dan Reol Sefydlog 21.2 neu 21.3
Thank you, Gareth. So, colleagues, on the impact assessments, this is something we've already taken up with Welsh Government, so we're awaiting the response, and, on the changes brought in by these regulations, in principle it's the same merits point that…

Offerynnau sy’n cynnwys materion i gyflwyno adroddiad arnynt i’r Senedd o dan Reol Sefydlog 21.2 neu 21.3
That takes us on, then, to item No. 3, instruments that do raise issues to be reported to the Senedd under Standing Orders 21.2 and 21.3. And we have a made negative resolution instrument, SL(6)135, the Health Protection (Coronavirus Restrictions) (No. 5)…

Gwaith craffu blynyddol ar Gyfoeth Naturiol Cymru
Could I just ask one brief corollary? It's a follow-up to that follow-up, which is this: I was the Minister when we had some frank and open discussions in the public domain with the Environment Agency, when I was the environment Minister, and they never felt…

Gwaith craffu blynyddol ar Gyfoeth Naturiol Cymru
Yes, it's only a brief follow-up. I notice, Clare, that one of the things that you haven't been doing throughout all of this is whingeing. When there was, for example, a slight uplift in the Environment Agency's budget in England, you didn't suddenly rush and…

Llyr, can I just make an observation? It's not a question for a further comment. This is not a criticism of officers working with NRW at all. Everybody who comes into NRW has the best interests of the environment at heart; that's why they come to work with…

Thanks, Chair. This is probably an opportune moment to turn to an area that's interesting us all on the committee and in some ways, you've neatly tried to pre-empt where you think some of our questioning is going to be going on this. You've seen the headlines…

Could I just ask—? One aspect is the transparency of the process you're going through, so that this committee is able to be informed by what you're informed by what you're doing, what you're looking at, what you've decided the important baseline aspects are…

Okay, sorry—I understand that. You can understand it's a little bit frustrating for the committee, because we want to help as well as challenge Government, and the fact that it's parked into, 'We're going into this—

Craffu ar Gyllideb ddrafft Llywodraeth Cymru 2022-23 - sesiwn 2
Okay, that's helpful. It's a fundamental review. It's not just looking at baselines and what should be delivered; it's a fundamental review of how NRW, in its entirety, is funded from different sources, and what else can be drawn in from other sources as…

Thank you, Chair. And, Minister, we're going to turn to NRW just for a couple of moments here. In your letter to the Chair of the committee, you noted, and you touched on this today, that you're undertaking an exercis examining the allocation of NRW resources…

A really brief one, thank you, Chair. It's simply to say a genuine heartfelt thanks for the allocation—small in the overall budget—to tackle the remediation work with the local authority in Caerau. But, in relation to the budget, I want to ask the bigger…

Okay. Could I ask just a very brief follow-up, because it covers the whole of marine then? If you extend it beyond the renewables now and the sustainable exploitation of marine renewable resources, extend it into the wider issue of mapping data, the fact that…

Craffu ar Gyllideb Ddrafft Llywodraeth Cymru 2022-23 - sesiwn 1
I anticipated that that might be the answer. I think the committee would welcome the fact that you're going to look at this in a thorough way, about satisfying—. Because this isn't just an NRW issue. The reason I wanted to come in now, Chair, was the…
