Cyllideb ddrafft 2024-25: Sesiwn dystiolaeth ar waith Gweinidogion
Okay. Well, it would be very helpful if you could come back on that, because I think it's relevant to how well we are spending the money we're giving to FareShare and other food poverty organisations, because there is undoubtedly an issue here. You hear…

I appreciate that other departments also have to be focusing on equality and social justice, and you have a small budget in this department. I just want to look at how well the Government is using the Well-being of Future Generations (Wales) Act 2015 in…

So, the main item on today's agenda is scrutiny of the draft budget for social justice. I'm very pleased to welcome Jane Hutt, the Minister for Social Justice; Hannah Blythyn, the Deputy Minister for Social Partnership; and your officials, Amelia John…

There are two papers to note. One is correspondence between me and the Minister for Social Justice on the European Union settlement scheme, and the other is from Auditory Verbal UK on improving hearing outcomes for deaf babies. Are we content to note them?

Yes, please. I just want to ask you whether any of these 27 species of fruit trees, given the deficit we have in fruit that is native to Wales, and, instead, we're relying on imports from foreign countries, which also has environmental implications—. So, is…

Given that you've been successful in these prominent enforcements—where you are successful, are you able to recover your costs, or is it still a drag on your budget?
18 Ionawr 2024 , Climate Change, Environment, and Infrastructure Committee
Gwaith craffu blynyddol ar waith Cyfoeth Naturiol Cymru
Okay. But on enforcement there needs to be some real clarity. You've highlighted some of the successes you've had in chasing people who have been breaking the law, but there needs to be greater clarity to ensure that everybody is clear that, if they are…

Okay, that’s clear. Just finally from me, what are the mechanisms you have in place to get feedback from the various stakeholders you need to engage with on the existing SLAs, which are around major things like flood-risk management, pollution, incident…

Gwaith craffu blynyddol ar waith Cyfoeth Naturiol Cymru
Okay. I probably haven’t got time to go on much further on this, but we obviously need to do a lot more work on it. Can you just tell us—? I know you’ve agreed SLAs in 10 priority areas, which you name in the performance, and I just wondered what further…

Gwaith craffu blynyddol ar waith Cyfoeth Naturiol Cymru
Yes, to some extent. I think the role you’re playing in PSBs is clearly an important one, because local authorities and health boards aren’t necessarily thinking climate emergency and nature emergency front and centre of what they’re doing, so hopefully…

Gwaith craffu blynyddol ar waith Cyfoeth Naturiol Cymru
Okay. I'm sure the committee welcomes the focus on outcomes, because simply measuring outputs is not really cutting it where it needs to, given that we've got a nature emergency, a climate emergency and massive pollution problems. So, I really want to…

Thank you. You published your new corporate plan at the end of March, 'Nature and People Thriving Together', and I understand the three well-being objective that you set yourselves, but I just wondered why you've still not published your strategic indicators…

Okay. So, a decent proportion of the resources that you've outlined in the prevention section of your paper is going into this, and obviously other important things like smoking in pregnancy.

Okay. Could you write to us with some detail on this, because it really is about how you're using the resources, i.e. the money, to drive that? I congratulate you on the work you've done on Healthy Start, but, clearly, there's a great deal more of work to do…

Oh, well that's—. Congratulations. That's amazing, because originally I was being told by health visitors, 'We haven't got time to help people fill this in, and it's a complicated process.'

So, I just want to pick up on something that Sarah Murphy mentioned the other day in relation to the child poverty debate we had in the Chamber, which is that there were cookery classes funded by the European money that we used to get, and that is—. According…
