Archwilio Cymru - Craffu ar Amcangyfrif 2025-26 a'r Adroddiad Interim: Sesiwn dystiolaeth
That's similar to what you did in north Wales, isn't it?

The flip side of that—[Interruption.] Sorry, Rhianon. The flip side of that is, obviously, if it escalates, there's probably a higher risk involved—and we've talked about this before. Can you remind us where your current staff turnover rate is, and how you're…

So, your working assumption is that you wouldn't be coming back to us for any additional funding; you'll find that from efficiencies if you needed to give a pay award that's higher than what you've budgeted for.

Archwilio Cymru - Craffu ar Amcangyfrif 2025-26 a'r Adroddiad Interim: Sesiwn dystiolaeth

Archwilio Cymru - Craffu ar Amcangyfrif 2025-26 a'r Adroddiad Interim: Sesiwn dystiolaeth
Because we had a very lengthy—well, fairly lengthy—discussion on this in the Chamber yesterday and the day before, so it was just getting that clarity. So that's fine; thank you. I'll bring—. On that, then, we'll watch and see how that works and then we'll…

And have you looked at the Office for National Statistics definition of public sector and whether or not you believe that you fall into that, so it means that therefore that passported money should come to you, or—? Where do you where do you sit in that?

Fine. Okay. Thank you very much. I'll bring Rhianon Passmore in at that point. Thank you very much, Rhianon. Let me just make sure that you're unmuted. There we are, you're unmuted. Thank you.

So, you could make those decisions in-year, bring back a supplementary or report it at the end of the financial year. Are there any issues that you could foresee where you'd need to speak to this committee—if they're larger than you expect, whether or not we…

Archwilio Cymru - Craffu ar Amcangyfrif 2025-26 a'r Adroddiad Interim: Sesiwn dystiolaeth
Okay. Thank you for that explanation. That helps. You've previously told us that the movement in working capital relates to that normal contingency, and you were talking about that just now, through year-end movements. Does that remain the same, and can you…

It's 2.9 per cent—lovely, thank you. You've talked about savings and you've halved the savings target for 2025-26, compared to 2024-25, from £400,000 to £200,000. We previously discussed the financial sustainability review group that we've got, in October…
