Bil Seilwaith (Cymru) - Sesiwn dystiolaeth gyda'r Gweinidog Newid Hinsawdd
Okay, we did discuss resources earlier, but it has a relevance here.

Bil Seilwaith (Cymru) - Sesiwn dystiolaeth gyda'r Gweinidog Newid Hinsawdd

Bil Seilwaith (Cymru) - Sesiwn dystiolaeth gyda'r Gweinidog Newid Hinsawdd
Okay.

Bil Seilwaith (Cymru) - Sesiwn dystiolaeth gyda'r Gweinidog Newid Hinsawdd

Bil Seilwaith (Cymru) - Sesiwn dystiolaeth gyda'r Gweinidog Newid Hinsawdd
Although that is something that happens to an extent in Westminster, isn't it?

Bil Seilwaith (Cymru) - Sesiwn dystiolaeth gyda'r Gweinidog Newid Hinsawdd
I'm conscious that we are—well, I'm keeping a worried eye on the clock at the minute. So, Jenny, very briefly, if you just want to—.
18 Hydref 2023 , Climate Change, Environment, and Infrastructure Committee
Bil Seilwaith (Cymru) - Sesiwn dystiolaeth gyda'r Gweinidog Newid Hinsawdd
Okay, there we are, thank you very much. We'll move on now then and Janet.

Bil Seilwaith (Cymru) - Sesiwn dystiolaeth gyda'r Gweinidog Newid Hinsawdd
Okay, thank you. Huw.
18 Hydref 2023 , Climate Change, Environment, and Infrastructure Committee
Bil Seilwaith (Cymru) - Sesiwn dystiolaeth gyda'r Gweinidog Newid Hinsawdd
Of course, yes, that's an important point. I have Jenny and Huw wanting to come in on this as well.
18 Hydref 2023 , Climate Change, Environment, and Infrastructure Committee
Bil Seilwaith (Cymru) - Sesiwn dystiolaeth gyda'r Gweinidog Newid Hinsawdd
Sure.

Bil Seilwaith (Cymru) - Sesiwn dystiolaeth gyda'r Gweinidog Newid Hinsawdd
[Inaudible.] So, I think, with due respect, we'll pass on going deeper into that, because I think the initial answer gives us a clear indication, unless Delyth wants to, sort of—

Croeso nôl i'r pwyllgor. Dŷn ni'n parhau i graffu ar Fil Seilwaith (Cymru) yng nghwmni'r Gweinidog Newid Hinsawdd a'i swyddogion. Mi symudwn ni ymlaen at y maes nesaf o gwestiynau ac mi fydd Delyth Jewell yn ein harwain ni. Delyth.

Bil Seilwaith (Cymru) - Sesiwn dystiolaeth gyda'r Gweinidog Newid Hinsawdd
Excellent, okay. Thank you for that, Minister. I think we've given a decent amount of time to an important aspect of the Bill there. We're moving on to another important aspect, which is community consultation, but I don't want to rush it, and I am aware that…
18 Hydref 2023 , Climate Change, Environment, and Infrastructure Committee
Bil Seilwaith (Cymru) - Sesiwn dystiolaeth gyda'r Gweinidog Newid Hinsawdd
Yes. And we could have a whole debate about the merits of the Arup work and everything, but we won't go there; we've been there before. Thank you. Back to you, then, Janet, to conclude this section.

Bil Seilwaith (Cymru) - Sesiwn dystiolaeth gyda'r Gweinidog Newid Hinsawdd
So, before we come back to Janet, just to conclude on this area, much of the evidence that we've received has flagged up to us that 80 per cent of the noise around these major planning applications is about whether this meets the policy intent, whether it's…
