Thanks, Chair. Just briefly, are any of you involved in shaping the Welsh Government's plans for reform of the system, and what would be the single biggest thing that you would wish to change?

Thanks, Chair. Yes, I was just going to follow up on the call for a national list and a national map for foster carers. Does such a list exist in England or in Scotland?

Cwestiynau i Weinidog yr Economi
Diolch yn fawr iawn i chi am y neges gadarnhaol honno i bobl Wrecsam a'r rhanbarth. Mae Clwb Pêl-droed Wrecsam, wrth gwrs, wedi bod yn sôn yn ddiweddar am gynllun B, ac mae Llywodraeth Cymru eisoes wedi clustnodi, rwy'n credu, £25 miliwn i'r prosiect hwn. A…

Thank you. Steffan, can I just ask you about the campaign to get EMA increased by £5 a week? What do you think will happen? What do you think the Government's going to decide to do?

Thank you. It's really interesting what you both said about small amounts of money going a long way in preventing or stopping—or both—people from suffering from crisis point in regard to the cost-of-living crisis. Do you think, though, that the Government has…

Thanks, Chair. Further to the comments made by Sarah Murphy, which I agree with, I'd also add that scrutiny of Welsh Government bodies takes place in the Senedd itself, through committee work and Siambr work, not in the bodies themselves, so I'd object to…
