Yes.

I hope I'm covered by parliamentary privilege here today, because I think that they were missold in Cwm Calon. I think they were missold. So, people didn't know what they were signing up for when they were sold this, because this was in the early days; this…

If you think of what would normally happen, it's that you would have a commuted sum for a local authority to take on a piece of open space. So, you've got a green space of land on an estate, a local authority would be paid by the developer a commuted sum…

Let's answer that in two parts. The unfairness—absolutely right. There is absolutely unfairness in this and it's recognised across the community, and every community that comes to you—almost every community, not every community—will come to you about…

No, it would be the Government that would be introducing the legislation to cap the fees. At the moment, there is no recognised cap, so the Government would have to introduce the law to do it. But, also, the other thing that the estate management companies…

That legislation actually looks pretty interesting. It doesn't do what the petitioners have been asking for. It's not doing that, it's not requiring the adoption of open space. What the legislation is doing is looking at the second-order issue, which is the…

I think it’s absolutely right that there are these complications. I think it’s what economists call 'opportunity costs of action', politicians call 'unintended consequences', and people see as unfairness. That’s the whole issue around it. The key problem with…

Thank you, Chair, and thank you to the committee for giving me this unique opportunity to sit on the other side of the fence and answer questions, rather than ask them. I really appreciate the opportunity to do so. I've been campaigning on this issue since…

Cwestiynau i’r Gweinidog Cyllid a Llywodraeth Leol
Credaf mai'r pwynt allweddol a wnaed gan y Gweinidog yno yw, 'Ar hyn o bryd'. Rwy'n credu bod treth incwm yn rhywbeth y dylid ei ailystyried yn y dyfodol, ond mae'n llygad ei lle i ddweud nad nawr yw'r adeg i wneud hynny. Yr wythnos diwethaf, gwelsom welliant…

1. Pa asesiad mae Llywodraeth Cymru wedi'i wneud o'r effaith posib o gynyddu'r gyfradd sylfaenol o dreth incwm yng Nghymru? OQ59146

I think the issue is, if the report makes recommendations and the WRU is undertaking, in the meantime, changes, and if the recommendations are contrary to those changes, then you end up having to do things twice and possibly making it harder to do things…

I do feel that, though, the terms of reference are public and there's nothing to stop you having an opinion on those terms of reference, but I think you've expressed that anyway.

Previously commissioned reports will be provided to the panel—will they be public record, or is that all going to be done in private?
