Yes, Chair. I remember that the health Minister published a social prescribing framework earlier in the year. It does encourage local health boards to make sure that they are making their contribution to sustaining those facilities, where offering somebody a…

Well, Chair, there will not be a specific additional stream of revenue to support those uses this winter. But there are, in this field, a string of things that will be available, and some of those are the result of Welsh Government investment. Of course…

There is no plan to replicate what we did last year. Chair, as you know, we provided £1 million last year to support warm hubs. In a way that I think is encouraging, what we are seeing this winter is that that seedcorn money is producing warm hub activity by…

Well, I think that it's ongoing. The European Union has carried out this exercise as well. This is all very complex stuff and well beyond what I claim to understand thoroughly. But you know that the cost of electricity on a spot price day-by-day basis is the…

Chair, I think it must be absolutely frustrating for residents of north Wales, because, as well as paying the highest standing charges and not seeing the trade-off with the unit cost, north Wales is a huge exporter of energy, isn’t it? The renewable energy…

Well, it's a genuine dilemma, Chair, because when your budget is under the pressure that the Welsh Government’s budget is under, one of the things you find yourself driven to—although you’re conscious of it and so try to avoid it—is reducing those…

Well, Chair, I suspect that a number of times during this conversation I'm going to end up making this point, so I'll make it now and maybe won't need to keep making it, but the Welsh Government's budget this year and next year is the most difficult we've…

Well, Chair, first of all, I think it's a straightforwardly good idea, isn't it, and I sometimes think that data sharing is made more of a barrier than it needs to be because this is data sharing directly for the advantage of the customer, isn't it? It's to…

Well, first of all, Chair, we are absolutely aligned with those campaigns to introduce a social tariff, so we're definitely in favour of that. One of the things that we are doing at the moment is to pursue the announcement made by the Chancellor of the…

Well, Chair, we will be making a formal response to the Ofgem review. As a result of the campaigns that have been waged—and Jack Sargeant has been a leading voice in that here in Wales—some changes have already happened, and prepayment meter customers now…

I certainly think all of that is very important. Nobody wants to have organisations that are competing with one another by doing the same thing, where by working together they could maximise their impact. I think we are incredibly lucky in Wales with the…

The picture is a mixed one, Chair. Dealing with the current Prime Minister is easier in some ways than dealing with his immediate predecessors, because he at least observes the basic courtesies of inter-governmental relations. But my experience of dealing…

Nid wyf i'n cytuno ag ef y bydd niferoedd y dechreuwyr newydd yn lleihau'n sylweddol. Bydd Llywodraeth Cymru yn buddsoddi dros £100 miliwn—dros £100 miliwn—mewn rhaglenni prentisiaeth yn y flwyddyn ariannol nesaf. Yr wythnos diwethaf, roedd arweinydd Plaid…
