Would it be possible to update this committee in terms of the progress in that area, please?

But they're a key organisation for Wales in this group.

COVID-19: sesiwn dystiolaeth gyda'r Gwir Anrhydeddus Eluned Morgan AS, Prif Weinidog Cymru
Absolutely. And in terms of the evidence from Race Council Cymru, they did say that they hadn’t been contacted. Is that in play, or are there plans to do that, in terms of their ability to also disseminate information?
15 Ionawr 2026 , Public Accounts and Public Administration Committee
COVID-19: sesiwn dystiolaeth gyda'r Gwir Anrhydeddus Eluned Morgan AS, Prif Weinidog Cymru
Thank you for underscoring that. In regard, then, to the evidence from Race Council Cymru that was given to this committee—and the learnings are ongoing, as we’ve spoken of previously, and we’ve talked about data sets that were missing originally—what…

COVID-19: sesiwn dystiolaeth gyda'r Gwir Anrhydeddus Eluned Morgan AS, Prif Weinidog Cymru
I think it would be useful to update this committee, Chair, I think, when the local resilience forums are publishing their local risk registers, and when we next formally update, even though it's not public, the risk register that you said. I'm going to move…

COVID-19: sesiwn dystiolaeth gyda'r Gwir Anrhydeddus Eluned Morgan AS, Prif Weinidog Cymru
Sorry to interrupt, but in regard to identification of the dynamic vulnerable group category, are we using all of our data to do that, or are we just relying on the local resilience forums, or both?

COVID-19: sesiwn dystiolaeth gyda'r Gwir Anrhydeddus Eluned Morgan AS, Prif Weinidog Cymru
So, it's a live document. So, when I ask a question around when is it going to be updated next, would you be able to answer that, or is it continually—?

COVID-19: sesiwn dystiolaeth gyda'r Gwir Anrhydeddus Eluned Morgan AS, Prif Weinidog Cymru
Diolch, Chair. Thank you for your commentary so far. In regard to the updating of the current risk register, how have you identified and assessed the vulnerable groups—and there are many across Wales—within the current document? I'm presuming from what has…

COVID-19: sesiwn dystiolaeth gyda'r Gwir Anrhydeddus Eluned Morgan AS, Prif Weinidog Cymru

COVID-19: sesiwn dystiolaeth gyda'r Gwir Anrhydeddus Eluned Morgan AS, Prif Weinidog Cymru
On that particular point, in terms of that not wanting to fetter, when you're dealing with—. For instance, none of us would like to see a pandemic, a terrorist attack or anything occurring simultaneously across Wales, but that has to be planned for. So, is…

COVID-19: sesiwn dystiolaeth gyda'r Gwir Anrhydeddus Eluned Morgan AS, Prif Weinidog Cymru
Bearing in mind—and this isn't in my line of questioning, Chair; I don't see it anyway—the disproportionate impact on our black and ethnic minority communities and that historical lack of data, and I'm not going to stray into that, but how are we actually…

Thank you, and it would be useful for that ministerial working group in March to come to this committee in terms of its update to us. Just finally from me, then, to the Welsh NHS Confederation, the Institute for Fiscal Studies has also told this committee…

Cyllideb Ddrafft Llywodraeth Cymru 2025-26: Sesiwn tystiolaeth 6
I'll move to the comments by the Institute for Fiscal Studies to the committee, then. It didn't detect from the draft budget, the IFS, the necessary sense of urgency, it stated, to tackle performance and productivity issues in Welsh public services that it…

Cyllideb Ddrafft Llywodraeth Cymru 2025-26: Sesiwn tystiolaeth 5
Diolch. Moving back, then, to social care, you project an overspend in 2024-25 of £106 million and estimate pressures of £224 million before 2025-26. To what extent are you able to protect social services spending within those budgets and will you be able to…

Diolch, Cadeirydd. I'm going to talk in terms of the financial pressures for 2024-25 and 2025-26 around staff pay. There are a number of transfers into the settlement, as you know, for pay-related purposes. So, in terms of your roles, are you satisfied with…
