I'll just apologise, Chair, if my camera went off. My laptop just decided to have a hissy fit.

Okay. So, the questions I've got: to what extent do you believe that the Bill contributes towards the lifelong learning agenda of the current Welsh Government? And what in the Bill will help drive more collaboration between providers to deliver those lifelong…

Yes, it's one of those things when you start talking and realise you're not off mute. Good—I was going to say 'good afternoon'. Good morning, everybody. I've got two questions, but in the interests of time, I'm going to roll them into one, if that's okay…

Yes, that's fine. I've just got one really quick question: do you think there'll be public concern over this, because you said some schools are riding two horses, for example, and we all talk about pressure on learners, pressure on teachers? And I do worry…

Thank you, both. I've always been very interested in the way we award exams. You judge somebody's prospects on one piece of paper at the end of a year, not on what they've done right the way through school, but that's probably something we'll pick up later…

Dadl Fer: Polisi cyffuriau yng Nghymru a'r DU: Dechrau sgwrs genedlaethol
Teitl y ddadl bwysig hon yw 'polisi cyffuriau', a chredaf fod yr amser yn iawn i ni edrych yn fanwl yn awr ar bolisi cyffuriau yng Nghymru. Gadewch imi fod yn glir: hoffwn weld gwlad lle caiff y defnydd o gyffuriau ei ddileu, ond yn anffodus, nid wyf yn credu…

Gweinidog, o ran tocynnau COVID yng Nghymru, mae'n rhaid i'r Cabinet gael trothwy a pharamedrau o ran pryd maen nhw'n cael eu gorfodi ar leoliadau penodol. Yr hyn yr wyf i'n dymuno ei wybod yn benodol, Gweinidog yw: ar ba lefel y mae'n rhaid i COVID-19 fod…

Y Bil Addysg Drydyddol ac Ymchwil (Cymru)—sesiwn dystiolaeth 2
Thank you. I want to quickly touch on apprenticeships. So, in your experience of degree apprenticeships, what are the main challenges to an apprenticeship system that is responsive to employer demands, and to what extent does the Bill address them and Welsh…

On funding, the Bill requires providers to gain permission of the commission to pass on funding to collaborative bodies, so does HEFCW require providers to seek its permission to pass on funding, and could this requirement be a barrier to collaboration…

Thank you for that, Minister. My second point is on collaboration. So, commission consent is required before Welsh providers can share commission funding with collaborating bodies. Welsh Ministers can set regulations regarding giving consent. Is this a new…
