Cytundeb Cysylltiadau Rhyngsefydliadol: sesiwn dystiolaeth
Okay. Thank you. You referred to the annual report and you said you think that that has some value. I just wondered if you could tell us a bit about how you think that could be built on and improved?

I wanted to talk a bit more about record-keeping, not from the Senedd point of view, but from the Government point of view. There is a website, but I understand not all information is on the website, so it's just really to get your comments on how that could…

Yes, I just wondered what you thought 'good' would look like, in that, obviously, there are the formal set piece inter-governmental meetings, but there are many, many meetings between Ministers that aren't within that sort of context, and some of them are…

So, will it mostly be an internal review, then, or are you planning to have a level of independence and stakeholder engagement in it?

Okay. Thank you. And I'm not in favour of salami slicing; I'm in favour of budgeting on the basis of priorities, informed by values like this, so it's good to hear you say that. Can I just finally ask about plans for a review of the Act, which has been a…

Okay. Thank you. One of the areas where the commissioner has been a bit critical is in terms of how the Act is influencing the budget process, and I share that concern, and have over a number of years, really. Is it your plan to more fully embed the Act in…

Thank you. I've got a summary of the report that's been published today, and, if I could say, I do welcome the fact that the lead for this legislation is yourself, Government effectiveness, rather than placing this with rural affairs. I think that is the…

I probably should have asked this in the HE section, but I was worried about the time. I just wanted to ask about performing arts students. As you're aware, a lot of the courses aren't designated, they're a lot more expensive, but these are activities that…
