Datganiad gan Weinidog yr Economi: Blaenoriaethau Economaidd a Chysylltiadau Llywodraeth y DU
Efallai y dylwn i nodi mewn ymateb fy mod hefyd yn aelod o'r Blaid Gydweithredol. Fodd bynnag, wrth ateb y pwyntiau gan yr Aelod, rwy'n credu ei bod yn deg dweud hyn: mae perchnogaeth gan y gweithwyr yn mwynhau statws pwysig yn Llywodraeth Cymru, gydag…

O ran y pwynt sylweddol cyntaf y gofynnodd amdano, fe fyddwn yn ddiolchgar pe bai'n ysgrifennu ataf ynghylch manylion y cynllun y mae'n ei awgrymu, yn hytrach na cheisio rhoi ateb tri gair yn y Siambr heddiw. O ran yr heriau o lai o gefnogaeth ynghylch…

Diolch am y cwestiynau. Fel gŵyr yr Aelod, rydym yn datblygu ein cynllun sgiliau sero net. Mae rhai datganiadau i'w gwneud gan y Swyddfa Ystadegau Gwladol ac eraill yn ddiweddarach yn y gwanwyn, ond mae gennyf i ddiddordeb yn y ffordd y gallwn ni gau'r cylch…

Datganiad gan Weinidog yr Economi: Blaenoriaethau Economaidd a Chysylltiadau Llywodraeth y DU
Mae ein cynllun hirdymor yn parhau i fod ynghylch cyflawni dyfodol economaidd ffyniannus, gwyrdd i Gymru a buddsoddi yn sgiliau'r dyfodol. Mae ein gweledigaeth ar gyfer economi Cymru yn amlwg yn cyd-fynd ag arweinwyr meddwl annibynnol, fel y Resolution…

Diolch, Dirprwy Lywydd. Rwy'n dod i'r Cyfarfod Llawn y prynhawn yma ar ôl bod, yn gynharach heddiw, yng nghyfarfod cyntaf eleni o'r grŵp rhyngweinidogol ar gyfer busnes a diwydiant. Hwn oedd y cyfarfod cyntaf o'i fath ers gwanwyn y llynedd. Mae Llywodraeth…

Dim problem.

It's one of the potential answers to do more of this digitally, but that's why the apparent movement on information sharing is important in practical terms. To be able to do that digitally, you have to share information on what's coming. You also need to have…

It is positive that the UK Treasury have provided money for the work that we're already doing around Holyhead. I won't say that we have no idea, because we've made progress on [Inaudible.] contractors and some of the broad points around the model, but it's…

Cyllideb Ddrafft Llywodraeth Cymru - Gweinidog yr Economi
So, we have had some money come across from the UK Treasury for money that we'd spent at risk on getting ready to create border control posts. And as we've discussed, both in the Chamber and in this committee, Holyhead is further advanced than the south-west…

Well, we do have figures on foreign direct investment, but that in itself I don't think covers the full picture—Sioned may want to come in here—but we do have figures that come out on an annual basis around Wales and other parts of the UK on where direct…

It's not quite as simple as that. Our export action plan is designed to do exactly that—to help Welsh businesses to export successfully and to grow their businesses, it's a key part of, actually, businesses becoming more profitable, successful exporters and…

In this area, some of that comes from the direct engagement with our trade and invest team. I meet with them. I look at the programme that they propose putting forward. I discuss where and why we have opportunities that we can take up in different markets…

Cyllideb Ddrafft Llywodraeth Cymru - Gweinidog yr Economi
It really means that I don't think we'll be able to expand the support that we have into different markets. We were looking at some expansion in the programme. That is going to be much more challenging. We'll still have a significant programme of support…

As you know, the shared prosperity fund isn't really a multi-year programme because of the way that the money has to be spent on an annual basis. And because, when we were developing our budget, not all of the decisions had been made—. I think, when Dehenna…

This is about how we try and persuade people across the economy to shift into decarbonisation. When it comes to the south Wales cluster, they've already got a significant programme looking at decarbonisation for the south Wales industrial sector, and so we're…

So, the allocation came from conversations that we have had. I say 'we' in the global sense, because my officials have lots of the detail of those conversations with the development bank around what we could do. It actually comes from proposals that are being…

I think, actually, if you look at the—. Part of the reason why we shifted and did so much around the men's football world cup was because it was Wales on a giant, global scale, and to get a profile that we wouldn't otherwise have had. Last year, I put money…

Cyllideb Ddrafft Llywodraeth Cymru - Gweinidog yr Economi
So, obviously it means that we're going to have a reduction in what we would otherwise have been able to do. That goes back to the opening questions and exchange with the Chair and others. When you have not just whole-Government priorities, but priorities…

Well, actually, we heard some really interesting—. In a session that I attended together with the Deputy Minister for Social Partnership, we had a presentation from the main retail association themselves on some of the unevenness in what it means in terms of…

So, the retail delivery plan is a piece of joint work between us, businesses and trade unions. The Union of Shop, Distributive and Allied Workers are the main trade union in the sector, and they've been really clear that they don't want a hard deadline of…

I watched a lot of Yes Minister when I was younger, so I always get worried when civil servants say, 'The Minister's being brave.' [Laughter.] Some of you might be too young to remember Yes Minister, but—
12 Ionawr 2023 , Economy, Trade, and Rural Affairs Committee
Cyllideb Ddrafft Llywodraeth Cymru - Gweinidog yr Economi
Yes. Those things were certainly in my mind, and in the advice I get in having to balance that and then make choices, when the choice was made to maintain the Business Wales offer. Because, as I said, that comes at a cost to other parts of the department…

The core offer is a significant one in any event. Sioned may want to come in after me if I've forgotten anything or get this wrong, but Business Wales provides advice for start-ups, microbusinesses and SMEs. It helps to provide work, together with others, for…
