Cynnig o dan Reol Sefydlog 17.42(iv) a (ix) i wahardd y cyhoedd o weddill y cyfarfod
And I just want to ask if you agree for us to move now into excluding the public and going into private session for the rest of today's meeting. I see no dissent, so I hope the sound recordist can tell us when we're in private session.

Papurau i'w nodi
So, I'd just like to ask Members if you're happy to note the eight papers that are listed on the agenda, and whether there's anything you want to raise in public session before we go into private session. I'll take that as a 'no'.

Thank you very much, Minister. I'd like to thank you both, and your officials, for coming to this budget scrutiny meeting. I think we've covered a lot of ground and you've given some precise and concise answers to complement your written paper. So, I'd like…

Lastly from me, I just want to ask you about the allocation for Gypsy and Traveller sites, because you've put £3.7 million into this coming budget for the next year, and then a slightly reduced amount for the following. I do recall that, in previous years…

Cyllideb Ddrafft 2022-23: Sesiwn graffu gyda'r Gweinidog Cyfiawnder Cymdeithasol
Okay, thank you. We're down to the last five minutes. Is there anybody else who wanted to ask a question, briefly? Please raise your hand if you do. Sarah.

Just on the equality and data evidence unit and this £1.7 million allocation in this year's budget, is that mainly for creating new staff, or is it for IT that you need to, obviously, collate a large amount of data?
24 Ionawr 2022 , Equality and Social Justice Committee
Cyllideb Ddrafft 2022-23: Sesiwn graffu gyda'r Gweinidog Cyfiawnder Cymdeithasol
Yes, go ahead.

Cyllideb Ddrafft 2022-23: Sesiwn graffu gyda'r Gweinidog Cyfiawnder Cymdeithasol
Okay, Sarah, did you want to now go on to the housing and homelessness budget? Sarah, I think you are—

This relates to the questions that Sarah Murphy had. Sarah.

Cyllideb Ddrafft 2022-23: Sesiwn graffu gyda'r Gweinidog Cyfiawnder Cymdeithasol
Thank you. Sioned, I know you had a question on this area.
24 Ionawr 2022 , Equality and Social Justice Committee
Cyllideb Ddrafft 2022-23: Sesiwn graffu gyda'r Gweinidog Cyfiawnder Cymdeithasol
Fine. Okay. Altaf, could you now go on to your questions you had about the spending allocations for how it affects specific groups?
24 Ionawr 2022 , Equality and Social Justice Committee
Cyllideb Ddrafft 2022-23: Sesiwn graffu gyda'r Gweinidog Cyfiawnder Cymdeithasol
Have you published how much you're taking out of reserves for specifically funding this pilot?
24 Ionawr 2022 , Equality and Social Justice Committee
Cyllideb Ddrafft 2022-23: Sesiwn graffu gyda'r Gweinidog Cyfiawnder Cymdeithasol
Okay.
24 Ionawr 2022 , Equality and Social Justice Committee
Cyllideb Ddrafft 2022-23: Sesiwn graffu gyda'r Gweinidog Cyfiawnder Cymdeithasol
I think we should stick with the budget we've got. I think, Altaf, you made your point then, but I think the answer is 'no'.
24 Ionawr 2022 , Equality and Social Justice Committee
Cyllideb Ddrafft 2022-23: Sesiwn graffu gyda'r Gweinidog Cyfiawnder Cymdeithasol
Okay, very good. Altaf, did you want to put any questions about the basic income?
24 Ionawr 2022 , Equality and Social Justice Committee
Cyllideb Ddrafft 2022-23: Sesiwn graffu gyda'r Gweinidog Cyfiawnder Cymdeithasol
It doesn't quite cut it for me. Are we in danger of relieving the DWP of their responsibility for giving benefits to anybody who is unemployed in doing this, and therefore have less money circulating in Wales?
24 Ionawr 2022 , Equality and Social Justice Committee
Cyllideb Ddrafft 2022-23: Sesiwn graffu gyda'r Gweinidog Cyfiawnder Cymdeithasol
Sioned, have you completed your scrutiny of this part? Great. I wonder if we can now move on to a discussion about the basic income pilot. Jane, if you could start off, and then I'll bring in Altaf.

Cyllideb Ddrafft 2022-23: Sesiwn graffu gyda'r Gweinidog Cyfiawnder Cymdeithasol
Thank you. Can I move to Ken Skates now?

Cyllideb Ddrafft 2022-23: Sesiwn graffu gyda'r Gweinidog Cyfiawnder Cymdeithasol
Okay. That's fine. Can I just summarise, though, and ask how are you going to ensure that, at the end of this three-year period, with this extra three-year funding, that the voluntary sector is less dependent on Welsh Government money than it is at the moment?

Cyllideb Ddrafft 2022-23: Sesiwn graffu gyda'r Gweinidog Cyfiawnder Cymdeithasol
Thank you. That's a very useful answer. Jane Dodds wanted to ask a question.
