Cwestiynau i’r Gweinidog Newid Hinsawdd
Nid yw hynny'n wir. Mae neges drydar gan y BBC yn dweud mai anwiredd yw hynny. Dyna i gyd.

Cwestiynau i'r Prif Weinidog
Ddoe, cefais y pleser o fod yn bresennol mewn cyfarfod bord gron gyda chlwstwr diwydiannol De Cymru wrth iddynt lansio eu cynllun datgarboneiddio. Tra oeddwn yn y cyfarfod, roeddwn yn falch iawn o gael dangos trydariad o'ch cyfrif Twitter, Prif Weinidog, yn…

Bil Bwyd (Cymru): Sesiwn Dystiolaeth 8
Okay, thank you. Thank you, all. Thank you, Chair.

Bil Bwyd (Cymru): Sesiwn Dystiolaeth 8
So, it's not novel, what's in the food Bill; there is a precedent.

Bil Bwyd (Cymru): Sesiwn Dystiolaeth 8
So, had you been the Minister bringing this forward, would you have put stronger targets within it, or would you have left it as more of a specific framework, with the targets coming secondary?

Bil Bwyd (Cymru): Sesiwn Dystiolaeth 8
So, with one evidence session, I explained to them that, as you're a backbencher, you wouldn't be the Minister taking this Bill forward if it were to be successful; it wouldn't be your policy in Government. Given that, in terms of the aspirational targets…

Bil Bwyd (Cymru): Sesiwn Dystiolaeth 8
Okay. So, it seems that you're quite amenable to potential amendments there, as and when they come on specific points. Some stakeholders highlighted the possible opposing nature of the goals, and you've previously said that they should all be taken equally. I…

Bil Bwyd (Cymru): Sesiwn Dystiolaeth 8
Thank you, Chair. Good morning, panel. When taking evidence from RSPCA Cymru, they called for the inclusion of animal welfare in the Bill. The health boards that we've taken evidence from have explicitly mentioned the tackling of health inequalities, and…

Cwestiynau i'r Prif Weinidog
Prif Weinidog, mae gennyf i lawer o atgofion hapus o weithio ar fwrdd y Stena Europe a'r Lynx a oedd yn hwylio o Abergwaun i Rosslare ar ddechrau'r 2010au pan oeddwn i'n dal yn fyfyriwr. Roedd llawer o'r sïon a'r sgwrsio islaw'r deciau ac yn y gali bryd hynny…

Okay. I take from that, then, that you're plugging the gap in terms of where that support is available. Is that gap wholly filled by yourselves, or is there some way that you'd like to be able to take up not more of the market, per se, but, 'Oh, we could…

Okay, excellent. And just one final one if I may, Chair. In terms of what you offer that a traditional lending bank doesn't offer, what are the benefits that you'd say—? And I know, Gareth, you mentioned in your introduction some of the benefits around the…

Okay, that's helpful. In terms, then, of the development bank's corporate plan 2022-27, it states that, as part of the bank's third economic contract pledge, and I quote, 'By 2024 we will ensure that carbon emissions and net zero plans are a mainstream part…

Okay, that's helpful. In terms, then, of businesses coming to you for finance, for support, is their decarbonising journey a key element of that, because sometimes that's around efficiency savings, not the growth of a business per se? How would the…

Just quickly on the offsetting scheme that was mentioned, what is that offsetting scheme that you run yourselves?
