Dadl: Diwygio Cyllidol
Diolch, Lywydd. Rwy'n ddiolchgar i allu cymryd rhan yn y ddadl hon heno. Ac mae'n rhaid i mi ddweud, Lywydd, mae wedi bod yn llawer mwy diddorol nag yr oeddwn i'n ei ddisgwyl pan welais i deitl y ddadl yn y lle cyntaf. Byddaf yn atgoffa'r llefarydd Llafur yn…

Cwestiynau i'r Prif Weinidog

Diolch. Perhaps one last question, unless anyone else has anything they wanted to pick up at all. I'm conscious that, in terms of the pressures being faced, you've generally referred to general inflation and the impact of real-terms cuts. Are there any…

Okay, thank you. And then, going back to looking ahead, in terms of capital financing, I was reflecting on your comments about the current expectation of a 9 per cent real-terms cut to capital over a three-year period. Are you doing any particular work to…
