Can I just ask, you’ve mentioned grip and control a few times, but, obviously, there might be constituents or others watching this wondering what grip and control even mean. What does that look like? What does that mean?

Well, if you’ve got one.

What’s that golden nugget?

And do you think that, in terms of the plan that you have in place to tackle the level that you’re at, the public can have confidence that you’ve got this now under control? Is there something that over the next 12 months we can definitely see will change…

Is it important that everyone has the same one?

The AI, this new technology that you’re using—are all the health boards now using that same programme? What does that look like? Do you think that that’s going to be a bit of a game changer for how people see health, how people can actually view their own…

Okay, great. I've got one more, in relation to—. I’ve got one for Phil. Obviously, you’re at level 4 in terms of escalation and you’ve talked us through how that is working at the moment. You’ve referred to some—. Was that in relation to prescribing medicine?

And what's the biggest risk?

Do you think that's realistically achievable? Do you think you can do those things within the three years and get us to that sustainable model? Do you think you've got the right players around the table? Has everyone bought into that vision?

I've got a question for you, Rob. My question is: you've mentioned the forecasting deficit of about £40 million this year—I guess what I want to understand is what confidence you can give us that you will become sustainable over the next three years and what…

Cwestiynau i’r Gweinidog Cabinet dros Effeithiolrwydd Llywodraeth a'r Cyfansoddiad
Weinidog, fe ddylai data gweithlu da, yn amlwg, ganiatáu i Lywodraethau ragweld pwysau yn hytrach nag adweithio wrth gyrraedd sefyllfa o argyfwng. Sut fydd data eich Llywodraeth o ran recriwtio, cadw a phwysau gweithlu i ymgysylltu â'n hundebau llafur yn…

Cwestiynau i'r Prif Weinidog
Brif Weinidog, oni ddylai gwerth am arian, fel y dywedwch chi, gael ei fesur nid yn unig yn ôl—a'r gost; mae hynny i gyd wedi'i drafod—buddsoddiad, swyddi a chyfleoedd, ond hefyd yr hyn y mae cymunedau yn ei gael yn ôl yn lleol wedyn hefyd? Rydych chi wedi…

And one other quick question, Chair, if I may. There was obviously the really big inquiry into dignity and respect that you mentioned earlier that Hannah Blythyn, a previous colleague of mine, was very much heavily involved in. I was reading through the…

In terms of your current workforce planning, do you think that, given that the Senedd has got bigger, there are 96 Senedd Members—the staff canteen, for example, is busy, it seems to be, from morning until night—and all the events and everything else that…

So, that's where the discretionary element can come in, because there could be some costs attached to that.

Craffu ar Gyfrifon - Comisiwn y Senedd 2025-26: sesiwn dystiolaeth
In terms of the—. Specifically in terms of the staffing costs.

Craffu ar Gyfrifon - Comisiwn y Senedd 2025-26: sesiwn dystiolaeth
Of course, wages are an element, but, obviously, there are terms and conditions that go into the mix as well. And then, obviously, you need to factor in inflation et cetera as well, and there have been lots of shifts and changes over the years in the Senedd…

Craffu ar Gyfrifon - Comisiwn y Senedd 2025-26: sesiwn dystiolaeth
Yes, just on that point, I was just going to say that, obviously, you've had long-standing social partnership tripartite working with trade unions, and that's referenced in the report as well.

Talking about elections, obviously we've moved to proportional representation. The public didn't seem to be clear as to what kind of PR, and having that conversation about what the D'Hondt system would actually look like—. I think there were six different…
