I've got two more questions, Cadeirydd, if that's okay—

Sesiwn i graffu ar waith y Gweinidog—Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet dros Lywodraeth Leol a Thai
I'm sure other colleagues will come on to some other questions there. But I want to move on to building safety, if that's okay. We haven't seen the pace of delivery on building safety that a lot of people would have liked to have seen, but a lot of that as…

Sesiwn i graffu ar waith y Gweinidog—Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet dros Lywodraeth Leol a Thai
Do you think, Cabinet Secretary, it’s something that the Welsh Government should probably look into with housing associations and local authorities, to see how many have probably not even gone into the planning stage yet because of phosphates? Surely for the…

Sesiwn i graffu ar waith y Gweinidog—Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet dros Lywodraeth Leol a Thai
Just on this point, Chair, and those 68, there are obviously going to be other social housing developments that have probably not actually come forward at all, because of phosphate regulation. Does the Welsh Government have any idea how many have not even…

Sesiwn i graffu ar waith y Gweinidog—Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet dros Lywodraeth Leol a Thai
Yes, before I move on to building safety, one element that can end homelessness is actually the building of houses, and we've seen that the phosphate regulations that were brought in had a major impact on house building across Wales. Have you quantified…

—for 2023-24 and show that homelessness has gone up again, does that mean you'd have a relook at some of the strategies and say, 'Well, are they actually working?' Even though they've been developed with the industry, if the stats are going in the wrong…

Sesiwn i graffu ar waith y Gweinidog—Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet dros Lywodraeth Leol a Thai
Yes, thanks, Cabinet Secretary. You've outlined, in the brief time that we've been talking, some strategies that the Welsh Government have been using to address homelessness, but the figures from Stats Wales do paint a different picture, don't they?…

Rwy'n siŵr y byddant yn gwneud hynny, ond mae nifer y swyddi sy'n cael eu colli yn aruthrol. Mae'n rhaid iddynt edrych ar lygredd amaethyddol, ansawdd dŵr, coedwigaeth, llifogydd—i enwi ond rhai o'r pethau y maent yn eu gwneud. Bydd yn ddiddorol gweld sut y…

Fe hoffwn i ddiolch i chi, Gweinidog, am grybwyll fy Mil iechyd meddwl i; nid wyf i am siarad am hwnnw heddiw. Mater arall sy'n wirioneddol bwysig yn fy marn i, yw dysmorffia'r corff, a'r niferoedd o bobl ifanc ledled Cymru sy'n dioddef o dysmorffia'r corff a…

On capacity, we heard from local authorities this morning. Not every local authority has a community liaison officer to deal with this community, and sometimes other areas of the council are picking up work. So, planning might pick up a little bit, housing…

Yes, so, with that working relationship, obviously there are probably asks that come from these groups as well back to Government. So, I’m just interested in what areas of policy are you considering changing or tweaking to address issues that come forward…

I've got just one more question about the regular meetings you have with Welsh Government. The Cabinet Secretary has said that they've been invaluable, the meetings, the regular catch-up meetings, with local authorities around capacity, around different…

Yes, as we know, the Welsh Government are moving to a regional basis of doing certain types of work. Colleagues in planning who are on the call will know what they do around planning and on corporate joint committees. Do you think that this is an area of work…
