Effaith gostyngiadau cyllid ar ddiwylliant a chwaraeon: Sesiwn dystiolaeth gyda'r Gweinidog Diwylliant, Sgiliau a Phartneriaeth Gymdeithasol (10)

No, I understand it is the process. I'm very well aware of that. My question is, given that there are financial constraints, you can't do anything about that, we've all discussed that, these are regrettable—you can't do anything about it. One thing you could…

It's if there was a consistent approach from the Government that I'm trying to tease out here.

What I'm puzzled by is the difference in approach between local authorities, where you're bending over backwards to remove constraints, and here, with these things we still keep calling arm's-length bodies, though, increasingly, I'm struggling to find the…

Is that proportionate? Given that it has to be spent by the end of the financial year, it's money you're giving based on an evidenced need. It's for a trusted arm's-length body. Why then put that additional burden on them?

I guess the point I'm trying to point to is that you do award money to the arm's-length bodies, sometimes in-year, which is obviously not ideal from anyone's point of view, but it's better than a poke in the eye with a sharp stick. And then, when you do award…

Okay, thank you. So, given those constraints, which I understand, I guess the question then falls into what flexibility can you give arm's-length bodies with the money that is allocated to them? We know that the agreement reached with local government is to…

Thanks. I just want to touch on the role of the Government in trying to manage all of this difficult funding. We've had various evidence, inevitably saying that bodies would appreciate a longer term funding horizon to plan on, an advance warning of cuts…

Forgive me, but if the Welsh Government's going to be reducing the amount of money available, by definition there's going to be detriment to access. So, something has to give somewhere. Isn't there a danger of you want your cake and eat it? A Minister, as…

It's on the role of the Welsh Government vis-à-vis the operational independence of the arm's-length bodies. Because when Ministers are getting involved in these decisions—. I remember evidence to this committee some years ago from Ken Skates when he was…

I just want to ask more of a reflective question, I suppose, because when there are cuts to be made, inevitably decision makers want to prioritise what are perceived as key services, or those that have immediate harm to the economy, and it seems, again, that…

Dadl y Ceidwadwyr Cymreig: Ymateb Llywodraeth Cymru i gyllideb Llywodraeth y DU
Gadewch imi fynd drwy'r ffigurau. Bydd y rhai ohonom nad ydym yn ffermwyr yn wynebu tollau marwolaeth o 40 y cant ar unrhyw beth dros £325,000 a drosglwyddir gennym. Ni fydd hyn yn digwydd gyda ffermydd. Ni fydd treth etifeddiant i'w thalu ar unrhyw ystad…

Yes, I agree with that because, arguably, the school system invested in my physical education abilities up to the age of 16; it's a very poor return on investment. [Laughter.] But there was no expectation that I would go on to do GCSE PE and no sense that I'd…
