Effaith gostyngiadau cyllid ar ddiwylliant a chwaraeon: Sesiwn dystiolaeth gyda'r Gweinidog Diwylliant, Sgiliau a Phartneriaeth Gymdeithasol (10)

If I can just come in, this is the process that we have with any additional funding that goes into arm's-length bodies. We've gone through the same process with the national library, who've received this emergency capital funding as well. The business case has been signed off and that money is now…

…you're bending over backwards to remove constraints, and here, with these things we still keep calling arm's-length bodies, though, increasingly, I'm struggling to find the evidence of what is arm's-length about it where you're imposing this level of micromanagement over something that you've agreed…

I guess the point I'm trying to point to is that you do award money to the arm's-length bodies, sometimes in-year, which is obviously not ideal from anyone's point of view, but it's better than a poke in the eye with a sharp stick. And then, when you do award bits of funding, you do attach…

Okay, thank you. So, given those constraints, which I understand, I guess the question then falls into what flexibility can you give arm's-length bodies with the money that is allocated to them? We know that the agreement reached with local government is to try and remove as much ring fencing as…

…from an official level. I think I said earlier that, of the £5 million announced in September for the arm’s-length bodies, the Arts Council of Wales received £1.5 million. That funding stream is a process. The Arts Council of Wales had a process open; it’s now closed and they’re reviewing…

…for that quality of exhibition. And you're right, in the face of the challenging budget situation, our arm's-length bodies need to look at what else they can do to raise additional revenue. I think there's more to do on ensuring that those sorts of schemes don't inadvertently exclude people from low…

…remain to be challenges going forward, we find the right solution to some of these issues. They are arm's-length bodies that will go on doing all of the things they do. The Minister for culture will have a view on some of these things. So, I don't think I'm grandstanding or having my cake and eating…

It's on the role of the Welsh Government vis-à-vis the operational independence of the arm's-length bodies. Because when Ministers are getting involved in these decisions—. I remember evidence to this committee some years ago from Ken Skates when he was culture Minister, and he was putting pressure…

Dwi’n siŵr y bydd gan Aelodau yma ddiddordeb yng ngwaith rhyngwladol y comisiynydd. Rydym, yn briodol, yn canolbwyntio ar y camau sydd eu hangen i gefnogi’r Gymraeg a sicrhau ei dyfodol, ond rydym weithiau’n anghofio ei bod yn cael ei hystyried fel llwyddiant ar lefel ryngwladol. Y Gymraeg yw’r unig…
