Cwestiynau i’r Gweinidog Cyllid a Llywodraeth Leol
Wel, diolch am eich ymateb, Weinidog. Rwy'n siomedig braidd, efallai, nad ydych yn fodlon ymateb yn llawn i'r cwestiwn. Rwy’n derbyn cylch gwaith eich portffolio, ond rwy’n tybio bod meysydd yn eich portffolio a allai roi rhagor o sylw i’r cwestiwn. Felly…

Cwestiynau i’r Gweinidog Cyllid a Llywodraeth Leol
Diolch, Lywydd. Weinidog, mae’r data diweddaraf sydd ar gael gan Lywodraeth Cymru, ar gyfer 2020-21, yn dangos bod awdurdodau lleol yng Nghymru yn berchen ar oddeutu 1,000 o fân-ddaliadau ac yn eu gosod ar brydles i ffermwyr tenant. Mae hynny’n cwmpasu…

Diolch yn fawr, Dirprwy Weinidog, am y datganiad y prynhawn yma. Wrth i chi ymateb i un o fy nghyd-Aelodau yn gynharach, roeddwn yn falch bod yr adroddiad yn cydnabod pwysigrwydd cysylltiadau teithio rhwng gogledd Cymru a Lloegr, ac y bydd y cysylltiadau…

Datganiad a Chyhoeddiad Busnes
Trefnydd, hoffwn i alw am ddatganiad gan y Gweinidog Iechyd ynghylch cyllid ar gyfer gwasanaeth clefyd metabolig etifeddol Cymru gyfan, gan gynnwys SWAN, y tîm syndromau heb enw, o fewn hwnnw. Mae'n ymddangos bod rhywfaint o ansicrwydd ynghylch a fyddan nhw'n…

Goblygiadau ariannol y Bil Addysg Awyr Agored Breswyl (Cymru): Sesiwn dystiolaeth
I think it's a fair question. Let's not forget the Bill itself is putting it into the curriculum, so it's not seeking to have a stand-alone thing, as it were. The way the Bill has been framed is to put it into the curriculum, but I guess the criticism could…

No, because, as Estyn said themselves, they don't expect it to be something for them to have to do. But if a Minister at any point, or somebody, wanted to do that, it's their prerogative. I can't predict what a Minister will want to ask for as a thematic…

So, if I answer perhaps the second question first, if I may, around the role of Estyn within this. Estyn were asked to give evidence to the Children, Young People and Education Committee—it's quite a long title, isn't it—on my Bill, just a few weeks ago, and…

It's not something that I've explored within this. If the Minister thinks that that's necessary, then I guess that's a point for him to consider. But just on the Bill itself, though, where this is covered off, again, it says in point (3)(h) that, in the…

Yes, and teachers do all sorts of activities and ensure that the statutory provision of education takes place, and they don't—and are not able to, actually—claim overtime for that work, because they recognise the importance of it. And the evidence—and…

I think if the Minister thinks he needs to seek to change the terms and conditions, that's a matter for him to deal with. Let's not forget again that, currently, the vast majority of teachers understand the importance of this and see it as part of the support…

So, it's been a really, really important part of the consideration, but can I just answer that a bit more fully in just a moment? I just want to go back to the point you made about the consistency of quality and assurance of the centres, because let's be…

So, the transport costs are in paragraphs 296 and 297 within the explanatory memorandum. And the hire companies, they provided costs that range from £250 up to £280 for the three days. That was for, sorry, children with additional learning needs. But all the…

That's right. So, the calculation of the total cost is assumed at a 100 per cent take-up, because, as I said earlier, that would be the most extreme cost, as it were.

Thanks. So, again, going back to that point I made earlier on the headline figure, it does assume that there'd be 100 per cent take-up for this. And then, how it's split between the two and four nights, I'll ask Christian to explain that, if that's okay…
