Dadl Fer: Economi Cymru: Problemau strwythurol a'u cywiro
Diolch, Ddirprwy Lywydd. Rwyf wedi rhoi munud i Tom Giffard. Mae economi Cymru yn perfformio'n wael o'i gymharu â gweddill Prydain ac wedi gwneud hynny ers blynyddoedd lawer. Roedd gwerth ychwanegol gros y pen yng Nghymru yn 2021 yn £22,380, sef 74.1 y cant o…

Dadl Plaid Cymru: Cyllideb Llywodraeth y DU
Mae hynny'n eithaf diddorol. Nid wyf yn hollol siŵr sut y mae'n mynd â ni gam ymhellach ymlaen. Hynny yw, y pwynt yw y byddai'n dod oddi ar y grant bloc. Rwy'n cefnogi ei weld yn dod i Gymru, oherwydd mae pethau y gallwn eu gwneud ag ef, ond nid wyf yn credu…

Dadl Plaid Cymru: Cyllideb Llywodraeth y DU
Ni fydd ymrwymiad i ddatganoli Ystad y Goron cyn gynted â phosibl, gydag amserlenni perthnasol, yn cynhyrchu unrhyw arian ychwanegol. Bydd yn dod oddi ar y grant bloc. Sut y gwn i hynny? Dyma a ddigwyddodd pan gafodd treth incwm ei datganoli'n rhannol a phan…

Dadl ar Adroddiad y Pwyllgor Deisebau, 'Cymdeithas heb arian parod? P-06-1335: Dylai Llywodraeth Cymru gymryd camau i sicrhau y gall oedolion agored i niwed heb gerdyn banc dalu ag arian parod'
Rwy'n cefnogi'r ddeiseb. Fe geisiaf osgoi ailadrodd unrhyw beth y mae unrhyw un arall wedi'i ddweud. Ond dylai Llywodraeth Cymru gymryd camau i sicrhau bod oedolion bregus heb gardiau banc a dulliau electronig eraill yn gallu talu gydag arian parod, a hefyd…

Dadl ar y cyd ar Adroddiadau gan Bwyllgorau: Cynllun Ffermio Cynaliadwy a Chyswllt Ffermio
Nid wyf yn cael. Hoffwn wneud hynny, ond rwyf wedi bod allan ac ni wnânt adael i mi wneud ymyriad.

I meant outside the Urdd and the formal ones—the sorts of informal ones, where young people who aren't into the Urdd type of thing get an opportunity to use Welsh in normal circumstances.

I'm just going to go outside schools, because you have youth provision. I mean, at Twrw Tawe, in Swansea, which covers the Swansea valley and east Swansea, that provides youth service through the medium of Welsh. Now, at the next stage, it may not be in this…

I'm not allowed to talk about the plan; I'm only allowed to talk about the cost. But I have views on the plan and on primary school clusters working together, but I just hope that they do it in terms of—as far as this committee is concerned—reducing the costs…

Well, I only know Swansea in any detail, so, apologies for that, but Swansea has got a number of school clusters based around the secondary schools. I assume that other councils do it the same way, and I would expect the primary schools, within a secondary…

Okay. The cost for each school to prepare and publish the first and second iteration of the Welsh language education delivery plan is described as an opportunity cost. That means it's a non-cash cost, I hope. Are there any savings in terms of opportunity…

Would there be any savings to do it via the equivalent of a DES circular—a sort of Welsh Government educational circular? Would that actually save money or would it make no difference in cost?

Goblygiadau Ariannol y Bil y Gymraeg ac Addysg (Cymru): Sesiwn dystiolaeth
Okay. Thank you very much. The RIA sets out alternative options to achieve the policy intent of some proposals in the Bill without legislating, and I'm sure you remember that comprehensive education was brought in by a Department of Education and Science…

Diolch, Cadeirydd. The RIA sets out transitional costs in Parts 1 to 5 of the Bill, which relate to Welsh Government staff time. Is it going to be new staff or is it opportunity costs of existing staff doing something different?

But in the same way, are we going to assume that Morriston Hospital is still going to be funded, whatever Government is in power after 2026?

Goblygiadau Ariannol y Bil y Gymraeg ac Addysg (Cymru): Sesiwn dystiolaeth
But it's just a continuation of what's currently being spent—it's not new money. I know I'm boring on this, but I've tried to differentiate between new money and cash and opportunity costs that are different, and the big one is additional cash.

I was talking about that in another place, but the Welsh sabbatical, is that going to continue, because that has been the big thing for getting people who speak some Welsh to be able to teach Welsh, especially in primary schools? That's made a huge difference…
