Diolch yn fawr i Adam Price. Mae Adam wedi dweud yn barod beth sydd gyda fi i'w ddweud, achos tu ôl i argymhelliad 16 mae'r ddadl am a ydym ni eisiau gweld cyrff newydd sbon, neu oes rhywbeth gyda ni yn barod ble rŷn ni'n gallu addasu beth sydd gyda ni yn…

Diolch yn fawr i Rhys am y cwestiynau. Mae'r twf yn addysg trwy gyfrwng y Gymraeg yn ardal Treganna wedi bod yn un o'r straeon mwyaf llwyddiannus dros y degawdau diwethaf. Dwi'n cofio bod yn y gadair yn y grŵp cyntaf yn un o'r ysgolion newydd yn Nhreganna…

Yn yr ymdrech yna i helpu pobl i ddefnyddio'r iaith bob dydd, dyna ble mae adroddiad Simon Brooks yn mynd i'n helpu ni i gryfhau'r posibiliadau lle mae pobl yn siarad Cymraeg yn barod bob dydd, ac i gryfhau'r cyfleon i bara ymlaen i wneud hynny at y dyfodol…

Diolch yn fawr i Alun Davies am y cyfraniad. Wrth gwrs, dwi'n cytuno gyda fe o ran dweud diolch i Simon Brooks a'r 10 aelod eraill o'r grŵp sydd wedi creu'r adroddiad. Bydd ymateb i bob argymhelliad. Dwi ddim yn gallu dweud heddiw fy mod i'n mynd i dderbyn…

Datganiad gan Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet dros Gyllid a’r Gymraeg: Cymunedau Cymraeg
Diolch yn fawr am y cwestiynau, wrth gwrs. Y pwynt dwi'n meddwl yw bod adroddiad 'Y Cynllun Tai Cymunedau Cymraeg' wedi codi lot mwy o waith, so dwi wedi trial rhoi adborth yn ôl ar y gwaith penodol dan y cynllun, ond hefyd i ddangos ble mae'r gwaith yna wedi…

Dirprwy Lywydd, diolch yn fawr. Diolch i Tom Giffard am y cyfraniad adeiladol ac am y cwestiynau hefyd. Wrth gwrs, dwi’n cytuno ar y pwynt cyntaf roedd e’n ei wneud am bwysigrwydd defnydd yr iaith Gymraeg. Dyna beth roeddem ni’n ei drafod wythnos diwethaf…

Cyllideb Atodol Gyntaf Llywodraeth Cymru 2024-25: Sesiwn dystiolaeth
Members of the committee will be very well aware of the huge pressures that were in last year’s budget, and the very difficult decisions that had to be made to reduce the budgets of almost all my Cabinet colleagues. And that, inescapably, included reductions…

No.

Cyllideb Atodol Gyntaf Llywodraeth Cymru 2024-25: Sesiwn dystiolaeth
I think the answer is 'more or less', Chair. So, the city and growth deals are jointly funded by the Welsh Government and the UK Government, and the UK Government's contribution, we are essentially a 'pass through' for that. They give the money to us, and we…

Cyllideb Atodol Gyntaf Llywodraeth Cymru 2024-25: Sesiwn dystiolaeth
Well, the core Valleys lines are a new responsibility for the Welsh Government. It was negotiated, primarily, by my predecessor, during his period as First Minister. So, we took over the responsibility for the running and the maintenance of the core Valleys…

Cyllideb Atodol Gyntaf Llywodraeth Cymru 2024-25: Sesiwn dystiolaeth
Yes. Chair, I'm due to meet the Cabinet Secretary for Transport and North Wales in the next round of budget discussions, and I am anticipating that the Valleys lines will be a major part of that discussion.
10 Hydref 2024 , Finance Committee
Cyllideb Atodol Gyntaf Llywodraeth Cymru 2024-25: Sesiwn dystiolaeth
I don't think it's so much a shift in priorities as just a recognition of the fact that the core Valleys lines, which is where this money has gone to, is a programme that is more expensive than was originally anticipated. So, the impact of construction…

I think we do publish one table where you can do that. I think the trouble is, Mike, as you know, it's at a level of detail that a headteacher would be very unlikely to have looked at. But I think there is a table we publish that does allow you to see that…

Cyllideb Atodol Gyntaf Llywodraeth Cymru 2024-25: Sesiwn dystiolaeth
Yes. Exactly. It's gone from—. It appears to have left education, but it's just arrived in another education budget. But it's also caught up in the student loan changes, which are also very significant, and Sharon will explain better than I could.
10 Hydref 2024 , Finance Committee
Cyllideb Atodol Gyntaf Llywodraeth Cymru 2024-25: Sesiwn dystiolaeth
Well, thank you for the chance to do that. I'll try to respond to one part of it; I'll ask Sharon to deal with the student loan part of it, because that is very complicated in an accountancy way. Just picking up the point that Peter made earlier, Chair, so…

My discussions with my Cabinet colleagues are always about two different things. They are about in-year management—so, I will talk to all my colleagues about where they are, are they living within their means, what plans do they have to live within their…

Cyllideb Atodol Gyntaf Llywodraeth Cymru 2024-25: Sesiwn dystiolaeth
We were all in the same position in that regard. Even the department of health in England didn't know. I've no doubt at all that they would have been told quietly, but they didn't know until the March budget whether they had the money for the following year.
10 Hydref 2024 , Finance Committee
Cyllideb Atodol Gyntaf Llywodraeth Cymru 2024-25: Sesiwn dystiolaeth
At this point, there are no active plans or decisions being made of that sort.

I'm not in a position to rule it out at this point—

Cyllideb Atodol Gyntaf Llywodraeth Cymru 2024-25: Sesiwn dystiolaeth
What I can say is that the position is a lot better than last year. I'm not saying that health boards aren't facing some real pressures on them—they are. But when we were doing that exercise last year, it was very much driven by the fact that health boards…
