I want to talk about the integration of health and social care. I think of them as a continuum rather than cut-off points. Can the Minister tell us the exact figure to be allocated to the new social care regional integration fund? How will schemes be…

Finally from me, Chair: I think that we've seen one really good example in Designed to Smile, which has really reduced the number of children having fillings. When you go to a poor area of social deprivation and an 11-year-old girl asks you what a filling is…

If I move on to something that we discussed in some detail yesterday, so I'm not going to repeat everything I said yesterday, on prevention and health inequalities, Chair. You'll know my view on health inequalities after yesterday. But can I ask how much of…

Diolch, Cadeirydd. Financially, primary care has lost out following the merger of primary and secondary care in the health boards. How will the budget use targeted investment to improve primary care provision and stop people having to use A&E for their…

Can I just say I agree entirely? If you read a Nuffield report from 2010, it shows a huge reduction across the health service in England and Wales, but especially in Wales, in the number of people dealt with per consultant.

Lots of other organisations outside health have made substantial reductions in their fixed costs—things like LED lighting, things like reducing the cost of agency staff. I know that nursing agency staff is a huge cost in the NHS, and I also know that…

Dadl Plaid Cymru: Anghydraddoldebau iechyd
Mae anghydraddoldeb iechyd wedi bod yn ffenomen hysbys ers dros 50 mlynedd, pan ysgrifennodd Dr Julian Tudor Hart erthygl yn The Lancet ar y ddeddf gofal gwrthgyfartal. Y ddeddf gofal gwrthgyfartal yw'r egwyddor fod argaeledd gofal meddygol neu gymdeithasol…

Hoffwn i ofyn am ddau ddatganiad. Fel rhywun sydd wedi gofyn yn barhaus am y ddarpariaeth o athrawon cyflenwi yn y sector cyhoeddus, rwyf i wedi credu ers tro byd fod athrawon cyflenwi yn cael eu trin yn wael. Roeddwn i'n falch iawn o weld y camau arfaethedig…

Datganiad gan y Prif Weinidog: Diweddariad ar COVID-19
Y ffordd arferol o gymharu gweithredu a diffyg gweithredu yw cael sampl rheoli. Mae Brasil a thaleithiau deheuol Unol Daleithiau America wedi rhoi sampl rheoli o'r fath i ni, ond gyda chyfraddau marwolaethau trychinebus yn y gwledydd hynny. Hoffwn godi dau…

Whilst it's very unlikely that a made affirmative decision would be overturned by the Senedd, and if you were the Minister at the start of that procedure you probably wouldn't be the Minister at the end of it, if it was overturned—. What I'm trying to say is…

Last year, you had an example, didn't you? The stamp duty land tax in England was changed, and land transaction tax rates and thresholds were changed in response to the changes. How much did that cost?

Bil Deddfau Trethi Cymru etc. (Pŵer i Addasu): Sesiwn dystiolaeth 1
Thank you. That takes us further on to the position of cost. One of the things this committee, and as a Senedd in general, has been very keen on is realising that costs of implementing legislation mean less money available for other services. Many of us, I…

And moving on, responsibility for the administration of land transaction tax and landfill disposals tax is with the WRA. How confident are you that the WRA can react quickly and effectively, and do you expect them to incur extra costs if they do?

Bil Deddfau Trethi Cymru etc. (Pŵer i Addasu): Sesiwn dystiolaeth 1
Thank you, Chair. Thank you, Minister. From what you said earlier, I take it that when we eventually get aggregate tax, which we seem to have been waiting for forever, these rules will apply to that. And if we had a land value tax, it'd apply to that. And any…

But land transaction tax has both been volatile in terms of the amount of money it brings in—probably the second most volatile tax—and also there have been continual changes, not every year but certainly every several years. Landfill disposals tax is slightly…

Yes. My question is really: these taxes are relatively new, why didn't you—you weren't the Minister in charge; why didn't the Welsh Government—bring them in at that time? Why are you bringing them in three years down the line?

I suppose I and the host unmuted me at the same time then. I think that I absolutely agree with you on that, but a number of the grants you've given out—some of the housing grants, for example—you've kept at exactly the same rate for the next three years, so…
