Cyllideb Ddrafft 2022-23: Sesiwn graffu gyda'r Gweinidog Cyfiawnder Cymdeithasol
Lastly from me, I just want to ask you about the allocation for Gypsy and Traveller sites, because you've put £3.7 million into this coming budget for the next year, and then a slightly reduced amount for the following. I do recall that, in previous years…

Okay, thank you. We're down to the last five minutes. Is there anybody else who wanted to ask a question, briefly? Please raise your hand if you do. Sarah.

Just on the equality and data evidence unit and this £1.7 million allocation in this year's budget, is that mainly for creating new staff, or is it for IT that you need to, obviously, collate a large amount of data?

Cyllideb Ddrafft 2022-23: Sesiwn graffu gyda'r Gweinidog Cyfiawnder Cymdeithasol
Yes, go ahead.

Okay, Sarah, did you want to now go on to the housing and homelessness budget? Sarah, I think you are—

Thank you. Sioned, I know you had a question on this area.
24 Ionawr 2022 , Equality and Social Justice Committee
Cyllideb Ddrafft 2022-23: Sesiwn graffu gyda'r Gweinidog Cyfiawnder Cymdeithasol
Fine. Okay. Altaf, could you now go on to your questions you had about the spending allocations for how it affects specific groups?

Cyllideb Ddrafft 2022-23: Sesiwn graffu gyda'r Gweinidog Cyfiawnder Cymdeithasol
Have you published how much you're taking out of reserves for specifically funding this pilot?
24 Ionawr 2022 , Equality and Social Justice Committee
Cyllideb Ddrafft 2022-23: Sesiwn graffu gyda'r Gweinidog Cyfiawnder Cymdeithasol
Okay.
24 Ionawr 2022 , Equality and Social Justice Committee
Cyllideb Ddrafft 2022-23: Sesiwn graffu gyda'r Gweinidog Cyfiawnder Cymdeithasol
I think we should stick with the budget we've got. I think, Altaf, you made your point then, but I think the answer is 'no'.

Cyllideb Ddrafft 2022-23: Sesiwn graffu gyda'r Gweinidog Cyfiawnder Cymdeithasol
Okay, very good. Altaf, did you want to put any questions about the basic income?

Cyllideb Ddrafft 2022-23: Sesiwn graffu gyda'r Gweinidog Cyfiawnder Cymdeithasol
It doesn't quite cut it for me. Are we in danger of relieving the DWP of their responsibility for giving benefits to anybody who is unemployed in doing this, and therefore have less money circulating in Wales?

Cyllideb Ddrafft 2022-23: Sesiwn graffu gyda'r Gweinidog Cyfiawnder Cymdeithasol
Sioned, have you completed your scrutiny of this part? Great. I wonder if we can now move on to a discussion about the basic income pilot. Jane, if you could start off, and then I'll bring in Altaf.

Cyllideb Ddrafft 2022-23: Sesiwn graffu gyda'r Gweinidog Cyfiawnder Cymdeithasol
Okay. That's fine. Can I just summarise, though, and ask how are you going to ensure that, at the end of this three-year period, with this extra three-year funding, that the voluntary sector is less dependent on Welsh Government money than it is at the moment?

Okay. Thanks very much. Just very briefly, back in the day, in 2012, it was 112 pages long. It's now 12 pages long, this strategic integrated impact assessment. What's missing, and how do you think that's improved it?
