Cwestiynau i Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet dros Lywodraeth Leol a Thai
Diolch am eich ymateb. Yn anffodus, nid ymddengys bod hynny'n wir o ran sut y caiff ei roi ar waith, gan fy mod wedi bod yn helpu etholwyr sy'n byw yn Llys Tylcha Fawr yn Nhonyrefail, sydd wedi cael eu heffeithio gan bolisi gosod sy'n agor y fflatiau i unrhyw…

Cwestiynau i Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet dros Lywodraeth Leol a Thai
2. Sut mae Llywodraeth Cymru yn sicrhau bod cymunedau o bobl oedrannus neu agored i niwed yn teimlo'n ddiogel yn byw ar ystadau tai cymdeithasol oedd yn hanesyddol wedi’u cadw at ddiben llety henoed, ond sydd bellach yn agored i unrhyw un heb fetio am…

Diolch. Os caf i nodi'r ohebiaeth o dan eitem 6.4 o ran cau adran iau Coleg Brenhinol Cerdd a Drama Cymru. Mae yna bwyntiau fanna, dwi'n meddwl, gan ein bod ni wedi cymryd diddordeb fel pwyllgor yn y gorffennol, y byddai'n dda i ni ddilyn i fyny. O ran eitem…

Craffu ar Gyllideb Ddrafft Llywodraeth Cymru ar gyfer 2025-26: Sesiwn dystiolaeth gyda'r Gweinidog Diwylliant, Sgiliau a Phartneriaeth Gymdeithasol
We've received evidence from the charity Music Venue Trust saying that 'The cut in business rate relief from 75% to 40% will cause irreversible damage and, given the lack of wider funding for grassroots music venues (GMVs), will only add to the crisis already…

Thank you. But you'll be aware as well of recent closures, such as The Moon in Cardiff and so on, and we've received quite stark warnings from the Music Venue Trust about the implications for the future. Have you made an assessment of the impact the cut in…

Can we follow up with you in terms of the implications of that on the publishing sector and so on? I don't think we have time to go into that issue. If I can move on to another matter in terms of live music in particular. We know that the 40 per cent rates…

A quick-fire question: what allocation has been made for the Books Council of Wales for 2025-26?

If I may, Chair, just on that, you obviously have the detail that is not usually afforded to us. In terms of Amgueddfa Cymru, the national library, obviously they have to produce annual reports, and so on, which are scrutinised, but because of the way Cadw is…

I'm sorry, but your evidence says that greater cross-sector prioritisation is needed. Who is going to drive that? What's the strategy to achieve that?

Craffu ar Gyllideb Ddrafft Llywodraeth Cymru ar gyfer 2025-26: Sesiwn dystiolaeth gyda'r Gweinidog Diwylliant, Sgiliau a Phartneriaeth Gymdeithasol
If I may, your own evidence says: 'Sport can be a very effective preventative health tool, but greater cross-sector prioritisation is needed to create the long-term sustainable shifts in participation.'

Yes, if I can on that. I think that there's no doubt from this committee that we've heard the Government's aspiration in terms of sport being used as an effective preventative health tool. You've put it in your paper for us today. It's the fourth year in a…

It's quite specific. You're saying there's no crisis. Everyone who works in the sector says there's a crisis. We as a committee have taken evidence from countless sources, we've looked at international comparisons, we see that there's chronic underfunding…

To be fair, the Arts Council of Wales are a key body for the Welsh Government—a strategic delivery body. They don't throw around these kinds of comments by chance. They listen to the sector, they engage. They're telling you, as the Minister, that there's a…

I’m asking are you worried about it, that you don’t know.

Is this of concern to you, the fact that we don’t know, really, yet—you say the devil is in the detail—what the implications will be, because, on one hand, there’s an increase, but we don’t know how much of an increase it is?

Thank you. So, you’ve had clarification. So, in terms of that definition of ‘public sector’, does that include Amgueddfa Cymru, the National Library of Wales and so on? I would think, in terms of the Arts Council of Wales, obviously that would not be…

I just want to understand why, if that's the case and there's more funding than ever before, the decision was taken not to restore to even the 2023-24 levels for these sectors.

Thank you. If you consider there was a Conservative Government for 2023-24, and if you look at the budget for the next financial year, revenue funding remains 5 per cent lower than it was in 2023-24 for the Arts Council of Wales; 2 per cent lower for…
