Okay, thank you. We'll close this petition, then, and we'll move on to the next. Item 2.3, so P-07-1574, 'The GCSE (Curriculum Wales) course needs to put a much greater focus on Welsh history'. 'At the moment, school leavers in Wales will know more about the…

Yes, thank you. I'm minded to agree with that. And I would just, you know, echo your sentiments there. Mr Gittins has been a regular communicator on the issue. It's clear that he feels passionately about this, and I think his work has been reflected in some…

Okay, thank you very much. Anybody else like to come in on that, or make any comment? No. Happy with the recommendation? Okay. So, to confirm, we'll keep the petition open, pending receipt of further updates from the relevant Minister. Okay, thank you. Moving…

Dadl y Ceidwadwyr Cymreig: Y sector amddiffyn
Mae Reform yn cefnogi'r cynnig sydd o'n blaenau heddiw yn gryf. Mae gan Gymru draddodiad amddiffyn balch, ac mae ein sector awyrofod ac amddiffyn yn cyflogi 16,000 o bobl yn uniongyrchol. Mae cynllun buddsoddi mewn amddiffyn y DU yn ymrwymo £298 biliwn dros y…

Dadl Reform UK: Terfyn cyflymder diofyn 20 mya
Diolch, Lywydd. Rwy'n gwneud y cynnig hwn, a gyflwynwyd yn enw fy nghyd-Aelod Llŷr Powell. Dair blynedd yn ôl, gosododd Llafur y terfyn diofyn o 20 mya ledled Cymru. Fe wnaethant ddweud wrth fodurwyr ei fod yn angenrheidiol. Fe wnaethant ddweud wrth gymunedau…

Cwestiynau Amserol
Diolch i'r Gweinidog am yr ateb blaenorol. Rwy'n credu bod llawer o'r hyn rwy'n mynd i'w ddweud wedi cael ei grybwyll. Rydym yn cydnabod bod prisiau tanwydd uwch yn rhoi pwysau cynyddol ar fusnesau Cymru, gan gynyddu cost dosbarthu, trafnidiaeth a…

Cwestiynau Amserol
Weinidog, mae cannoedd o swyddi mewn perygl rhwng Admiral a Legal & General. Mae hyn yn newyddion dinistriol i economi Cymru gyfan, ond yn enwedig i'r rhai sy'n colli eu bywoliaeth. Er nad deallusrwydd artiffisial oedd yr unig reswm dros y toriadau hyn, mae'r…

Cynnig o dan Reol Sefydlog Rhif 17.42(vi) a (ix) i benderfynu gwahardd y cyhoedd o weddill y cyfarfod
Moving on to item No. 4, motion under Standing Order 17.42 to resolve to exclude the public from the meeting for the remainder of the meeting. That concludes the public business. So, I propose, as matters for discussion relate to the internal business of the…

Y wybodaeth ddiweddaraf am ddeisebau blaenorol
Okay, thank you very much. Does anybody else want to come in and contribute on this one? From my perspective, this has come up as part of casework in my constituency. There's a genuine feeling, I think, from parents that they do feel a little bit…

Y wybodaeth ddiweddaraf am ddeisebau blaenorol
Okay. Thank you, all. So, let's go back with perhaps a more sternly worded letter than we have done in the past and just express our frustration at the delays, and we'll, hopefully, get this one moving. Okay. Thank you very much. Moving on to P-07-1564…

Okay. Anybody else like to comment? From my perspective, this is absolutely heartbreaking. It's the last thing that people should have to go through after going through such a bereavement. Dealing with the Government is hard enough at the best of times, and…

So, just to summarise, then, if Members are happy to go with writing to the Welsh Government to seek further clarification about the funding, how that will translate into implementation, and we'll write to Neath Port Talbot Council for an update on progress—…

Okay. Thank you very much. I'm in agreement with you. We don't abandon people who are going through difficulties such as this, and I think, again, it's incumbent on us as politicians to stand up for people where we can. So, I'm minded to suggest we do option…

Yes, absolutely. Seconded by Sara. As I mentioned, I met the petitioner, and I was deeply moved by her story. As a committee, we need to do what we can to move this forward. I'm in full agreement with everybody on this. I think we do both the options here…
