Gwasanaethau Llyfrgell a Hamdden awdurdodau lleol - sesiwn dystiolaeth 4
Well, my questions are on increasing costs and exit strategies, and I think you've covered quite a lot of those already, really. I'm just looking at the implications of the high energy costs and the cost of living on people attending leisure services, and…

We visited a community asset transfer that had a swimming pool in it—a leisure centre with a swimming pool. And they said that they were unable to access grants to decarbonise because they had to do that through the local authority as well. So, I think…

Thank you. I'd just like to understand a bit further about the rising energy costs and the cost of living. How have they impacted on public leisure facilities, and the impact on footfall and usage? I know you touched on it earlier, but if there's anything…

Thanks. I just wanted to come on that regarding swimming for schools. Teachers have said that one of the biggest things that stops them is transport to get children to the swimming baths; it's really expensive to hire a coach. That was one of the biggest…

So, it's interesting—. Joel earlier mentioned about England are looking at setting up co-operatives and mutuals and communities taking over, but I have heard you mention today that you're still getting some local authority support, which has been essential…

Sorry, Chair, it was just because Sara mentioned—. I was a councillor at the time when we did the transfer to Aura leisure, so I wasn't sure whether I should have declared that at the beginning. That's all. Thank you.

Thanks. I was just going to ask that. So, listening to what Sara said as well about the impact on social services, health and the police, do you see that there's a role here for the public services board as well, to try to bring them on board and highlight…

Dadl y Ceidwadwyr Cymreig: Ariannu llywodraeth leol
Mae awdurdodau eraill wedi torri swyddogion a gwasanaethau yn hytrach na chodi’r dreth gyngor, sy’n golygu bod ganddynt bellach brinder swyddogion i ddarparu gwasanaethau craidd, fel cynllunio neu ofal iechyd cymdeithasol, a swyddogion priffyrdd technegol i…

Na, rwyf am barhau. Clywsom y bore yma yn y pwyllgor fod darparwyr gwasanaethau’n ofni y gallem fod ar fin cychwyn ar gyfnod arall o gyni enbyd. Fel cyngor, gwnaethom drefnu ac ailstrwythuro, gan wneud gwerth bron i £100 miliwn o arbedion dros y 10 mlynedd…

Would you like to expand further on how the right to adequate housing interacts with other human rights?

Yr Hawl i Gael Tai Digonol - sesiwn dystiolaeth 5
Thank you. Do you think that there are good international examples, where they've looked at doing this already, which would provide a good model for Wales to follow, so they could incorporate what's happening elsewhere as a right to adequate housing into law?

I think that point you mentioned was about taking the long-term view as well, rather than short term of what you can be doing in the four or five years of that Government, really. You've covered quite a bit already about how the right to adequate housing…

I was interested when you said we have got resources here in Wales, the Welsh Government, and if we just focus them into housing—. Can you just elaborate a bit more on that?
