Craffu ar Gyllideb Ddrafft Comisiwn y Senedd ar gyfer 2023-24: Sesiwn dystiolaeth
I am. Diolch, Peredur. Partly going back to what I was talking about earlier, the use of the project fund and the prioritising of it in areas where you can actually make early savings, I'm not asking you to tell me what you're going to do now and what the…

Can I just give some feedback? My office is never used on a Monday; my office is never used on a Friday; and it is very rarely used on a Thursday—pushing on to never. So, you could turn the heating off there. And I'm sure that an awful lot of other Members…

All we really need is a page of costs and savings. I can understand that bit.

I was just going to say, obviously, we'll note that letter, but can we write to the Minister asking for a breakdown of costs and savings within the Bill for us to take the opportunity to scrutinise it, even if we scrutinise it without a ministerial presence?

Datganiad gan y Gweinidog Newid Hinsawdd: Bioamrywiaeth
Rwy'n croesawu'r datganiad gan y Gweinidog yn fawr. Ni allwn barhau i golli rhywogaethau. Byddwn i'n cymryd mwy na fy munud i restru'r rhywogaethau yng Nghymru sydd dan fygythiad, ond mewn bioamrywiaeth, wrth gwrs, mae angen ecwilibriwm arnon ni. Ni allwn…

Cwestiynau i'r Prif Weinidog
Nid oedd Cyngor Abertawe erioed yn mynd i godi 1,600 o dai ei hun. Byddai hynny'n fwy nag y mae wedi'u hadeiladu yn ystod y 30 mlynedd diwethaf. Yr hyn yr oedden nhw'n dibynnu arno oedd y sector preifat yn adeiladu, ac mae'r sector preifat yn adeiladu dim ond…

You say most of the products are intra-UK—this is my final question—do we import any?

Thank you very much. Finally from me, the benefits from revenues total £8.6 million from the manufacturing sector switching to non-plastic, but that's for the whole of the UK. Do you know how much of that would be for Wales?

I speak as somebody who enthusiastically supports the Bill, but I have to again stick to financial questions as Peredur looks at me, so I was just saying what things could be done to make it look better when somebody in the Chamber gets up and says, 'Is it…

Will you be updating that because oil prices have gone up rapidly? Oil prices in Britain have gone up even more rapidly because oil is traded in dollars and the pound isn't doing very well against the dollar at the moment. Are you going to update that…

I know, but I can only ask financial questions, so I had to find my way around that. The other thing is that you've got a cost of £17.1 million as the additional cost for business and customers to replace single-use plastic items with non-plastic…

You and I represent the River Tawe—we're halfway across each at the bottom of it—and there are problems of plastics ending up in the River Tawe, which cannot be good for fish, and certainly isn't good for the environment. So, I'm not supposed to ask you this…

Thank you. The plastic bag made a huge difference. I spend a lot of my time on the weekends visiting sports grounds, and they used to be covered in plastic bags. Now, when I see a plastic bag, I notice it, because it's a very rare event. You could change…

I got confused, Minister—I hope you can unconfuse me. You will remember when we used to have multi-use plastic knives and forks, which were washable and could be used several times. They tended to be either brown or sort of a see-through plastic—there were…

Just two things, outside the protocol but within your power, or within the Government's power. Can we have enough time for the budget debate? We have less time to debate the budget here than the average local authority has to debate its. We used to have an…

Very briefly. I think one of the saddest things is that the Treasury seem to think that the National Assembly for Wales is another name for the Welsh Office, and I think that is a problem we suffer from. But there was going to be an appeals mechanism. Does…

And about 15 per cent on goods and equipment and maintenance, et cetera, and 5 per cent on others. But, anyway, we're not here to scrutinise the health budget. The final question is: we have this situation, we'll know what the budget is for next year, how do…

It was the last time I saw it, but as I keep on mentioning, I'm quite often out of date on some of these things. It was well under 5 per cent last time I saw it. Pay was running about 70 per cent or 75 per cent.
