Excellent. Just finally, I take it—I'm not putting words in the three of you's mouths—you're all very supportive of the Bill. Should the Bill fail, are there any mechanism within Government already, or policies, processes, which can adapt the core asks of…

[Inaudible.]—being a leader. Terry, in your answer to Hefin David, you wanted to see Wales as the leader of a sustainable food policy. If this Bill fails, is there a possibility of Wales being left behind, then, in the context of a strategy, of an overarching…

Excellent. One of your responses to Hefin, I'll come back to in a moment, but I'm just going to give Simon the opportunity to talk about this within the UK context.

Diolch, Cadeirydd. In terms of the UK context, does the Bill suitably align with what's happening elsewhere, legislative and policy issues elsewhere? I know Peter on the first panel mentioned the good food Bill, I think it was, in Scotland. Does this, what is…

Excellent. Thank you, panel. Thank you for indulging me there, Chair.

Excellent. Terry, anything to add specifically around resourcing?
19 Ionawr 2023 , Economy, Trade, and Rural Affairs Committee
Bil Bwyd (Cymru): Sesiwn dystiolaeth 2
The point that Peter made in the first panel was that the long-termism of this, him saying that he himself wouldn't see potentially the benefits of this for 50 years' time, but it's about putting that long-term strategy in now for those future generations…

Bil Bwyd (Cymru): Sesiwn dystiolaeth 2
Well, on that point, Chair, if you don't mind, I've got a future question later on on resourcing. Do you mind if I continue on that, because you mentioned resourcing there? The rural affairs Minister has described the Bill as resource-consuming and…
19 Ionawr 2023 , Economy, Trade, and Rural Affairs Committee
Bil Bwyd (Cymru): Sesiwn dystiolaeth 2
Okay, that's interesting, because we as a committee have undertaken an inquiry into the agriculture Bill, and I think that was prevalent in a lot of that as well, that there's more common ground than is perceived, and it's interesting to hear you saying that…
19 Ionawr 2023 , Economy, Trade, and Rural Affairs Committee
Bil Bwyd (Cymru): Sesiwn dystiolaeth 2
Yes, that's interesting. Simon, I can see you were nodding along to what Katie was saying at that point. Anything to add?

Bil Bwyd (Cymru): Sesiwn dystiolaeth 2
So, it needs, then, a separate food commission to look at this. I can see you nodding along, Terry. Would you say it needs a food commissioner to head that up, or, as Peter mentioned to us earlier, he was suggesting a chair and board of expertise? What do you…

Bil Bwyd (Cymru): Sesiwn dystiolaeth 2
Diolch, Cadeirydd. Good morning—it's still just morning. Good morning to you all. With regard to the food commission, Peter, in the food Bill, is proposing that a food commission should be handling this, but there are some who are saying that this could be a…

Bil Bwyd (Cymru): Sesiwn dystiolaeth 1
Thank you, Chair.

Bil Bwyd (Cymru): Sesiwn dystiolaeth 1
Interesting. So, in terms, then—. Let me figure this out in my head. I was listening intently there. If we're looking at this fiscally, would you say that those efficiency savings along the measures leave this potentially at a cost-neutral stage? Because of…
19 Ionawr 2023 , Economy, Trade, and Rural Affairs Committee
Bil Bwyd (Cymru): Sesiwn dystiolaeth 1
I know we've mentioned that quite extensively this morning around malnutrition, obesity, diabetes et cetera. Is there any modelling specifically available as to what moneys could be saved from the health budget by ensuring that this is resourced sufficiently?…
19 Ionawr 2023 , Economy, Trade, and Rural Affairs Committee
Bil Bwyd (Cymru): Sesiwn dystiolaeth 1
In terms, then, of resourcing going forward in terms of this process and the current pressures that are there, is this resource-intensive, or is this something that can assimilate into what is already being done via resource quite seamlessly?

Bil Bwyd (Cymru): Sesiwn dystiolaeth 1
Thank you very much, Chair. In terms of engagement, we've seen the consultation, and you've mentioned the percentage that have been in agreement with having this set up. How have you engaged with those public bodies, specifically those third sector…
