Diolch, Chair. Thank you very much. I was interested to hear, Minister, your comments in regard to the new trading environment and also in terms of EU exit. A number of our witnesses, though, as the Chair has already stated, have mentioned that the powers…

Cwestiynau i’r Gweinidog Cyfiawnder Cymdeithasol
Weinidog, mae argyfwng costau byw'r Torïaid yn cael effaith ar bob aelwyd yn Islwyn. Fodd bynnag, er bod rhai o drigolion Islwyn yn gorfod dewis rhwng bwyta neu wresogi, ddoe, cyhoeddodd y cawr olew BP ei elw uchaf ers wyth mlynedd: £9.5 biliwn. Yr wythnos…

Diolch. O ran y datganiad diwethaf hwnnw, gwyddom ni i gyd fod arnom angen economi gymysg fywiog o ran gofal, boed hynny mewn meithrinfa neu ofal plant neu mewn gofal iechyd i'r henoed. A fyddech chi hefyd yn cydnabod, pan fyddwn yn mynd i'r afael â phrinder…

Hoffwn ddiolch i'r Gweinidog, Rebecca Evans, am ei dull o weithredu a'i dull o ymgysylltu â Phwyllgor Cyllid y Senedd i graffu ar y gyllideb ddrafft deg iawn, werdd a blaengar hon. A hoffwn ddiolch hefyd i'n cyd-Aelodau cyllid a'n Cadeirydd cadarn iawn. Mae…

Diolch, Dirprwy Lywydd. Gweinidog, mae argyfwng costau byw'r Torïaid yn effeithio ar bob un aelwyd yn Islwyn, ac rwy'n croesawu'n fawr gyfarfod Ofgem y Gweinidog ar lawer o bynciau, ond yn enwedig o ran y pryderon ynghylch y mesuryddion rhagdalu a godwyd. Mae…

Cwestiynau i'r Prif Weinidog
Diolch, Prif Weinidog. Mae Llywodraeth Dorïaidd y DU wedi cyfaddef o'r diwedd na fydd yn rhoi cyllid yn lle cyllid yr UE yn llawn i Gymru am dair blynedd. Mae hyn er i Boris ddweud yn gyson na fyddai pobl Cymru geiniog yn dlotach ar ôl i'r DU ymadael â'r…

Ar ran pobl a chymunedau Islwyn, hoffwn gofnodi ein gwerthfawrogiad o’r gwasanaeth cyhoeddus ffyddlon ac ymroddedig y mae Ei Mawrhydi y Frenhines Elizabeth II wedi'i roi ac yn parhau i'w roi heddiw. Ni fyddai unrhyw un, ni waeth beth yw eu barn ar y…

Bil Deddfau Trethi Cymru etc. (Pwer i Addasu): Sesiwn dystiolaeth 4
Thank you, Chair. Just very briefly on that theme of tools in the toolkit, other witnesses were quite clear that they believe primary legislation is important in terms of a ministerial ability to furnish penalties. Do you think that Wales should be in a…

Can I ask if Dyfed or David have any comment on those questions that I've posed and Sam has responded to? Or whether he's covered everything?
2 Chwefror 2022 , Finance Committee
Bil Deddfau Trethi Cymru etc. (Pwer i Addasu): Sesiwn dystiolaeth 4
Okay, thank you, and I don't know if there's any other comment before I move on to my next question—just chip in. The Welsh Government noted that the powers proposed in the Welsh tax Acts Bill may be used to protect against tax avoidance in relation to the…

Bil Deddfau Trethi Cymru etc. (Pwer i Addasu): Sesiwn dystiolaeth 4
I'm not going to ask you about penalties—it's not within my questioning brief—but the tool is in the tool case, as you've just referred to. So, you don't feel that it would benefit from revision—if it's not broken, why fix it? Or is that putting words into…

Bil Deddfau Trethi Cymru etc. (Pwer i Addasu): Sesiwn dystiolaeth 4
Chair, in regard to the general anti-avoidance rule, how effective do you think that is in allowing you to counteract tax advantages in relation to devolved taxes? And how often has the rule been applied?

Thank you. And is there any disagreement from Richard or Frank? No. There you go, Chair.

Of the whole legislative proposals that are in front of us. What would be the approach to reviewing the operation and effect of this legislation? I mean, we've had a number of suggestions earlier in terms of a working review, an annual process. I don't know…

Bil Deddfau Trethi Cymru etc. (Pwer i Addasu): Sesiwn dystiolaeth 3
Thank you, Glenn. What would you consider to be the best approach—I don't know if Glenn wants to take this first—to reviewing the operation and effect of this effectively groundbreaking legislation, if passed by the Senedd? What would optimise its effectivity?

Bil Deddfau Trethi Cymru etc. (Pwer i Addasu): Sesiwn dystiolaeth 3
So, you want clearer definition rather than more ambiguity.

Bil Deddfau Trethi Cymru etc. (Pwer i Addasu): Sesiwn dystiolaeth 3
Thank you. Glenn, have you got a comment, or should I go on to my last question?

Bil Deddfau Trethi Cymru etc. (Pwer i Addasu): Sesiwn dystiolaeth 3
I was going to say, Richard, it may be of use—I don’t know what others think—if you could send us any of those suggestions, rather than talk too much to that now.
2 Chwefror 2022 , Finance Committee
Bil Deddfau Trethi Cymru etc. (Pwer i Addasu): Sesiwn dystiolaeth 3
I don't know if Richard and Glenn have any brief comments on that particular point.

Bil Deddfau Trethi Cymru etc. (Pwer i Addasu): Sesiwn dystiolaeth 3
Thank you, Frank. I don't know if there's any contrary view. I don't think so. Your evidence noted that the Welsh Government should consider whether it has the necessary powers to tackle egregious tax avoidance schemes. Do you have any practical suggestions…

Bil Deddfau Trethi Cymru etc. (Pwer i Addasu): Sesiwn dystiolaeth 3
I do think there's a slight anomaly, though, with regard to your last comment about penalties, but you've already addressed that. Thank you, Frank. Do you want to continue before I go on to my next question? I interrupted you, sorry.
2 Chwefror 2022 , Finance Committee
Bil Deddfau Trethi Cymru etc. (Pwer i Addasu): Sesiwn dystiolaeth 3
Okay. Thank you. I'll move on, then. The evidence submitted during the inquiry noted that there is a wide discretion in the Bill in relation to the meaning of 'tax avoidance'. We've had some comment on this previously. Do you agree with that? If so, how would…
