Sesiwn Dystiolaeth: Maes Awyr Caerdydd
Thank you for that. I was in Morriston working men's club last night, and they said, ‘Why haven't we got Jet2?’ I flew from Birmingham in the summer to Verona airport. That was a very full plane going from Birmingham. In fact, it was a completely full plane…

Thank you for that answer. You talked earlier—or somebody did—about the importance of TUI. I absolutely accept that; it's one of the two major mass holiday transporters. But you haven't got Jet2. And this is not giving any secrets away: Jet2 is the other…

Sesiwn Dystiolaeth: Maes Awyr Caerdydd
Diolch, Cadeirydd. The first question to the Welsh Government: what has triggered the discussions with the airport and the longer term strategy, given the rescue and restructuring plan was for five years, to March 2026, with targets set for the airport beyond…

One priority is providing housing. Registered social landlords do fall into the financial transactions capital, yet they haven't been a major recipient of it, as far as I can understand. I'm happy for you to tell me I'm wrong. And also, it fulfils a social…

The good news is, this is finally from me: we’ve had people tell us—and, as we all know, when people tell you things, they’re not necessarily true, so I’ll start off with that—that the timescale was longer in accessing FTC loans through the development bank…

Will you lengthen the time? It's well known, it's in the public domain, that Carmarthenshire council, for example, have lengthened the length of time over which the Scarlets rugby team have got to pay back their loan. Do you do similar things?

But it would be useful. You've got to pay 80 per cent back. If 25 per cent were failing, then you're not going to be able to pay the 80 per cent back. I don't want to know that company X has failed, but I think knowing what level of failure is there. And what…

Yes. Have companies failed, as in they've ceased to exist and that they've gone into receivership and they've not been taken out of receivership?

And in how many of the investments have the companies failed?

Cyfalaf Trafodion Ariannol: Sesiwn dystiolaeth 3
Thank you, that would be very helpful. At project level, I don't think we want to know that company X has had £10,000. I think we perhaps want to know the companies in the green energy sector who've had £200 million. I think that's the sort of information…

Okay. Can I just say that it would help the committee and, I'm sure, the greater Welsh public with an interest in this if there's disaggregated data on allocation, both by the development bank and others, so they can be seeing what good it was doing?

Thank you very much. The Welsh Government allocated £1.4 billion of financial transactions capital, as of 2023-24, with the Development Bank of Wales having £1.1 billion of it. What's the other £300 million being spent on?
18 Medi 2024 , Finance Committee
Cyfalaf Trafodion Ariannol: Sesiwn dystiolaeth 3
Yes. So, just to clarify: it doesn't count against a public sector borrowing requirement.
18 Medi 2024 , Finance Committee

But isn't the advantage to the Treasury of FTC that it doesn't count against public sector borrowing requirement, because it's both on the debit and credit side of their accounts?

Diolch am yr ateb hwnnw, ac rwy'n cytuno'n llwyr. Yn 2015 cafodd trosedd ei chreu yn y gyfraith i wneud ymddygiad gorfodaethol a rheolaethol yn drosedd. Mae rheolaeth drwy orfodaeth yn batrwm o ymddygiad lle mae camdriniwr yn rheoli bywyd eu dioddefwr, gan…
