Cwestiynau i Gomisiwn y Senedd
Rwy’n derbyn eich pwynt, ac mewn gwirionedd, rwy’n cytuno ag ef, i raddau. Mae'n rhaid imi ddweud, pan oedd gennyf swyddfa a oedd yn wynebu’r gogledd yn ystod y tymor diwethaf, gyda’r mecanweithiau newydd a gyflwynwyd i arbed ynni, roeddem yn cael problemau…

Cwestiynau i Gomisiwn y Senedd
Diolch i’r Aelod, Jenny Rathbone AS, am ofyn y cwestiwn hwn, gan ei fod yn rhywbeth rwy’n ei drafod yn eithaf aml â phobl sy’n gweithio yn ein Comisiwn. Mae gan y Senedd hanes hir o leihau’r defnydd o ynni, gyda’n hôl troed allyriadau ynni yn lleihau fwy na…

Cwestiynau i’r Cwnsler Cyffredinol a Gweinidog y Cyfansoddiad
Diolch. Wrth gwrs, gwyddom fod Cymru'n dal i fod yn ei babandod democrataidd, ac mae honno'n sefyllfa unigryw i fod ynddi wrth inni geisio gwella lles Cymru yma ym Mae Caerdydd—neu yno ym Mae Caerdydd—ac ar draws y wlad. Fodd bynnag, mae dyfalu yn y cyfryngau…

7. A wnaiff y Cwnsler Cyffredinol ddatganiad am rôl y comisiwn cyfansoddiadol yn y broses o ystyried maint y Senedd a'r system bleidleisio a ddefnyddir i ethol Aelodau o'r Senedd? OQ57972

Cwestiynau i’r Cwnsler Cyffredinol a Gweinidog y Cyfansoddiad
Diolch. Nawr, yfory, fel y gwyddom i gyd, dylai pobl ym mhob cymuned yng Nghymru fod yn mynd i ethol cynrychiolwyr i hyrwyddo eu cymuned ar faterion sy'n effeithio arnynt yn uniongyrchol—y dreth gyngor, priffyrdd, gofal cymdeithasol, i enwi rhai yn unig. Fodd…

Diolch. Ar 9 Chwefror eleni, nodais wrth ein Senedd, er bod gan bob plentyn hawl i chwarae fel y’i hymgorfforir yng Nghonfensiwn y Cenhedloedd Unedig ar Hawliau’r Plentyn, ac er bod adran 11 o Fesur Plant a Theuluoedd (Cymru) 2010 yn ei gwneud yn ofynnol i…

No—well, yes, question 6: what are the key barriers that need to be overcome to attract new entrants to the workforce and in reskilling the existing workforce? And, again, do you think that the Welsh Government have got their eye on this, about what's needed?
28 Ebrill 2022 , Climate Change, Environment, and Infrastructure Committee
Datgarboneiddio tai - sesiwn dystiolaeth 4
Thank you. And then, as the Welsh Government have still not published a net-zero skills action plan and that we're not expecting to see one published by at least the end of year, do you actually believe the Welsh Government are doing enough to attract skills…

Diolch. According to the industry, between now and 2028, Wales will need to recruit, on average, an additional 2,000 full-time equivalent workers trained to carry out the highly technical challenge of decarbonising housing. Is this achievable?

Datgarboneiddio tai - sesiwn dystiolaeth 3
No, I didn't mean that, sorry; I meant for any enhanced improvements. So, they might be meeting it but only just, and yet, you know, further retrofit is needed.

Datgarboneiddio tai - sesiwn dystiolaeth 3
Just a quick one that's arisen whilst I've been listening to everything today, and that is, yes, there are good landlords, private sector landlords, and there are those that, I think it's fair to say, the stick might be needed. But where you have a situation…

Datgarboneiddio tai - sesiwn dystiolaeth 3
Okay. In what ways would your organisation like to see phase 3 and 4 of the optimised retrofit programme include the private sector, and what challenges do you foresee to the Welsh Government's full commitment to the decarbonisation of housing if the private…

Well, I've declared an interest, but I am an owner occupier, and I've got to be honest, ours is an old house, and I've often thought that I quite fancy that cladding that you put on the outside and then you can render it and things. But, honestly, I think…

So, am I right to assume that—I have to give credit where credit's due—Welsh Government are looking at tackling this head on and have put substantial amounts of money in the budget too, in their retrofit decarbonisation programme? I know, across Wales, there…

Well, you've actually answered one of my questions about whether Wales requires specific decarbonisation targets for all housing tenures. But if specific decarbonisation targets were set for individual housing tenures, what steps do you think Welsh Government…

Datgarboneiddio tai - sesiwn dystiolaeth 2
Thank you. It's funny, it was something I was going to raise with the Minister, because, to be fair, the Government are putting lots of money, throwing a lot of money, into this decarbonisation programme. But if these barriers exist, then—. And it's funny you…

The reason I ask is because I know that, sometimes, private landlords get slated for not maintaining their properties, but you'd be amazed how often I'm approached by some landlords that say they're trying to actually get into people's properties to make the…

Thank you. In terms of tenants and retrofitting and decarbonisation of homes, have we got any data on whether tenants have responded negatively or positively to installation of decarbonisation measures in their homes?
28 Ebrill 2022 , Climate Change, Environment, and Infrastructure Committee
Datgarboneiddio tai - sesiwn dystiolaeth 2
Yes. I know you've started it off, Chair, asking about the plan. Do you think the Government has a coherent and strategic plan for all housing stock in Wales? Because we've heard earlier today about the private sector landlords, the owner-occupiers. It seems…

Yes. One incentive at the moment—. I'm really keen to see empty homes come back into use, so turning empty houses into homes, and, at the moment, there is an initiative of £20,000 from local authorities to be given to landlords to improve their properties to…
