But it's what, I think, ordinary people will be asking.

Yes, which I read about in your paper. Okay. I want to move on to rail infrastructure. We've talked a lot about the availability of rolling stock, but I note, in your written evidence, you tell us the new fleet of trains on the Valleys lines are currently…

Right, I just want to—. I mean, I suppose finally on this, this does leave a very uncomfortable problem around the cancellation of the M4 around Newport, because I understand the pain you're having to go through, but it means that it's really difficult to get…

So, realistically, with a willing Government, when might we see those relief lines actually being used more intensively?

What can you do with between £2 million and £3 million?

Craffu ar drafnidiaeth gyda'r Gweinidog Newid Hinsawdd
Okay.

How much?

Craffu ar drafnidiaeth gyda'r Gweinidog Newid Hinsawdd
I mean, the UK's found some money. Hallelujah.

Craffu ar drafnidiaeth gyda'r Gweinidog Newid Hinsawdd
So, we actually have found some money to better use the relief lines.

That's fine. Because, how are we going to get these funded, given that the Treasury is not playing ball?
13 Rhagfyr 2023 , Climate Change, Environment, and Infrastructure Committee
Craffu ar drafnidiaeth gyda'r Gweinidog Newid Hinsawdd
Okay. So, where does that leave the challenge of developing north and south Wales metro systems?
13 Rhagfyr 2023 , Climate Change, Environment, and Infrastructure Committee
Craffu ar drafnidiaeth gyda'r Gweinidog Newid Hinsawdd
Yes, I understand that. Nevertheless, in terms of the shortfall in funding for Network Rail, they're willing partners, but they actually don't have sufficient funding to do more than patch the most urgent.
13 Rhagfyr 2023 , Climate Change, Environment, and Infrastructure Committee

I think we're going to come onto that a bit later.

But it's symptomatic, is it not, that decisions made in London completely tear up our plans?

Okay.
13 Rhagfyr 2023 , Climate Change, Environment, and Infrastructure Committee
Craffu ar drafnidiaeth gyda'r Gweinidog Newid Hinsawdd
Okay. So, that's the core Valleys lines, where you do control both the infrastructure and the running of the service. Obviously, the metro is much wider than that, and I just wondered how you think we're going to make any improvements, given that the next…

I'm very pleased to hear that. So, moving on. In the spring we were told about the core Valleys lines having a £306 million shortfall, and the Deputy Minister initially told us that you were hoping to manage the increased cost through your usual financial…

Fy nghwestiwn yw, o edrych ar gylch gorchwyl yr adolygiad annibynnol hwn, gallaf weld bod yna obstetregydd ymgynghorol. Gallaf weld bod yna berson newyddenedigol. Nid oes arweinydd bydwreigiaeth gymunedol. Nid oes unrhyw arweinydd bwydo ar y fron ar yr…

Pe bai dynion yn rhoi genedigaeth, ni fyddem yn y sefyllfa hon, oherwydd rwy'n gwybod bod problemau penodol ym mwrdd iechyd bae Abertawe, ond mae rhai heriau sylweddol ym mhob gwasanaeth mamolaeth ledled y DU. Cawsom gyfarfod o'r grŵp trawsbleidiol nyrsio a…

Mae angen i ni leihau ein dibyniaeth ar nwyddau sy'n cael eu mewnforio o dramor, ond mae diffyg enfawr ar gynhyrchu llysiau. Rwy'n gwybod nad yw amaethyddiaeth yn eich portffolio, ond serch hynny ychydig iawn sydd yn eich ymateb i adroddiad y Pwyllgor Newid…

Mae angen i ni ddechrau drwy gadw pob tanwydd ffosil yn y ddaear. Nid glo yn unig yw hynny; mae'n olew, mae'n nwy. Mae'n amlwg mai Rhif 1 yw hynny, ond yn anffodus mae'n ymddangos bod COP wedi cael ei gymryd drosodd gan lawer o'r buddiannau tanwydd ffosil…

Thank you. Just moving on then to childcare, which I know that the Government has ambitious targets for, but there's been an underspend there that has been quite significant, and I wondered how much of that is to do with the workforce and capacity challenges…

So, is this something that you expect to be pursued in both the community food strategy and the focus of officials, really, in Welsh Government, who are looking at food matters?

Sesiwn i graffu ar waith y Gweinidog - y cytundeb cydweithio
Okay. Because obviously a lot has changed in 10 years. The ubiquitous ham sandwich contains 15 ingredients that you wouldn't find in a normal kitchen, and that is something that children who are a bit picky about what's being served in the hot meal offer will…
