Craffu ar Gyllideb Ddrafft Llywodraeth Cymru ar gyfer 2022-23: Sesiwn dystiolaeth 1
You're saying you've over-programmed your capital spending; what does that mean if the consequentials don't get received? If you don't get those, or they're not as you expect them to be, where do you then draw the line as to what you spend on?

I mentioned that statement right at the beginning that the Secretary of State had made; has there been any improvement in the transparency of funding consequentials from the UK Government allocated to the Welsh Government to help to plan this budget?

So, what will be the benefit of doing it like that, rather than the way that it is now? What do you foresee as the benefits?

Okay. The budget notes the financial transactions capital reserves of £265 million and that allocations will be included in the final rather than the draft budget. What allocations are you planning, and why were these not included in the draft budget?

I think there was a report published earlier this month that there's an unallocated £505 million of COVID funding within this financial year. Will that be rolled over into next year, or how are you—? Is that going to be part of something that—? Could you go…

You touched on it there, and, obviously, the seriousness of the omicron variant would have become apparent towards the end of your budget-setting process. Have you managed to respond to the new challenges with this budget, or are your allocations based on the…
