Cwestiynau i'r Prif Weinidog
Mae llawer o blant yn byw mewn tlodi nad yw wedi'i achosi gan ddiogi neu afradlondeb rhieni; mae llawer o rieni yn gweithio dwy neu dair swydd, ond am isafswm cyflog, ar oriau afreolaidd. Mae ehangu prydau ysgol am ddim i ddarpariaeth gyffredinol o brydau…

I do. The Welsh Government's got a commitment to 30 per cent of staff working from home at any one time. Are you meeting that, and, if you are, what reduction in office space are you going to have, and how are you going to go about it?

Very briefly, this was in the middle of a pandemic. It was a time when local authorities were under huge pressure, when businesses were under huge pressure. Do you agree with me that local authorities did a phenomenally good job in getting this money out to…

And you could put income in as well, because income is becoming more and more important as we have more tax-raising powers in Wales.

Are you precluded from producing an income and expenditure account—not necessarily as part of the accounts for the auditor general, but for the benefit of the people of Wales and people like myself who find it easier to understand income and expenditure than…

Please can you give us a written answer, then? I make these statements on what I think is true, and I then ask you to clarify and tell me why I'm wrong. I think that makes life easier, but if you could give us a written statement through the Chair, I'm quite…

Sorry; I did ask another question in the middle—I was trying to get it over quickly. The £158 million was either not drawn down or paid back to the Treasury, which equates to about two thirds of 1p on income tax.

Can I just carry on with this for the moment? The first two bits are statements; tell me if I'm right or wrong. The Treasury treats Wales as another department, no different to defence or health in England. That's what you appear to have said regarding what…

Which is one of the points I've been raising. But is it usual—because in my experience it isn't—when somebody is at the top of an organisation, for people lower down the organisational structure than them to give advice relating to them? I've always seen it…

Just two very brief questions, and the answers will either be 'yes' or 'no' to both of them: did you take external legal advice, as opposed to internal legal advice, and did the Cabinet Office approve?

Sorry, just to clarify, if only for me: you no longer have a substantive post at Aneurin Bevan University Health Board.

Craffu ar Gyfrifon—Llywodraeth Cymru 2020-21
Sorry, you've confused me even more now, so I hope that you can unconfuse me. My experiences of secondments are that you're seconded from the post you currently have into a new post, but the old post is your substantive post. You now no longer have a…

Just to clarify this—and if I've got this wrong, please correct me—your substantive post is chief executive of Aneurin Bevan University Health Board. You had a secondment to be chief executive of health in Wales, and now you're on a second secondment to being…

But, if we can ask them how they calculate that high cost.

Papurau i'w nodi
On recommendation 8 that they rejected on high-cost grounds, could we ask them if they could identify what the costs are? They say, 'We reject this because of the high cost'. I don't believe that there's any cost at all, because the data is there anyway and…

Dadl y Ceidwadwyr Cymreig: Ardrethi busnes
Fel y dywedais wrth Janet Finch-Saunders yn gynharach, pam na allwn godi tâl ar y gwerthwyr ar-lein yn eu warysau mawr fel pe baent ar y stryd fawr?

Dadl ar Adroddiad y Pwyllgor Cyfrifon Cyhoeddus a Gweinyddiaeth Gyhoeddus: Comisiynu Cartrefi Gofal
Mae'r ymchwiliad hwn gan y Pwyllgor Cyfrifon Cyhoeddus a Gweinyddiaeth Gyhoeddus yn amserol yn fy marn i. Mae cartrefi gofal yn chwarae rhan bwysig yn y ddarpariaeth gofal i bobl hŷn yn bennaf, ond nid pobl hŷn yn unig. Mae'n cynnwys nifer fawr o ddarparwyr…

Cynnig Cydsyniad Deddfwriaethol ar y Bil Prisiau Ynni
Wrth gwrs, pe bai'r Llywodraeth yn cyflwyno deddfwriaeth, byddech chi a'r Ceidwadwyr yn pleidleisio yn ei herbyn, a byddai'n methu. Rwy'n credu bod hyn yn fodd o'i gyflawni, sy'n golygu y bydd yn digwydd. Pe gallech chi a'r Ceidwadwyr ddechrau pleidleisio…

Cwestiynau i’r Gweinidog Newid Hinsawdd
Credaf hefyd fod barn pobl leol yn bwysig. Yn bwysicach fyth, credaf ei bod yn bwysig diogelu ein parciau cenedlaethol, ardaloedd o harddwch naturiol eithriadol a'r llain las—mae pob un ohonom yn elwa ohonynt. A yw’r Gweinidog yn cytuno â mi ei bod yn…
