Culture, Communications, Cymraeg and Sport Committee

Gwnawn ni symud ymlaen, felly, at yr ail eitem. A hoffai unrhyw un wneud sylwadau ar gofnod ynglŷn â chylch gorchwyl y pwyllgor? Fe welwch chi yn y papurau bod y cylch gorchwyl wedi ei nodi'n fanwl. A oes yna unrhyw gwestiynau am y cylch gorchwyl yn benodol? Dim cwestiynau'n codi—. Sori, Louise.

I understand that the remit is to examine and hold the Welsh Government to account, but we've also got

'consider any matter affecting Wales',

which could be vast. So, it contradicts that, with the statements. How does that fit in with the statement of just examining Welsh Government stuff, but then we can bring any matter in that affects Wales? Sorry, that's probably a question for the officers, being new to this.

It's set very broadly. The Standing Orders allow the committee to look into a very broad range of things. I suppose those rules are trying to get across that the first thing is holding the Welsh Government to account, for its legislation, its budgets and for the way it exercises power. But the committee also has the ability to look at any issue that affects Wales, if it chooses to do so.

Right, even though we don't have international relations any more; obviously, that's with somebody else, isn't it?

I think Robin—

I can give some examples. In the last Senedd, we did quite a bit of scrutiny work with the Welsh Rugby Union, which doesn't have a direct accountability relationship, but the Members on the previous committee thought that that was important enough to Wales that the national Parliament should look at it. That would be an example.

Okay, I understand. Thank you.

Thank you very much, Louise.

A yw'r Aelodau felly yn fodlon nodi cylch gorchwyl y pwyllgor? A oes unrhyw gwestiynau pellach? Lis.

Mae'n rhestru'r bobl neu sefydliadau rydyn ni'n gallu galw i mewn neu sy'n cael eu galw i mewn fel arfer, ond rydyn ni'n gallu galw sefydliadau eraill i mewn. Dyna beth roedden ni jest yn cadarnhau, ie?

Dwi'n meddwl, efallai, bod y grynodeb hynny'n dod yn rhan nesaf y cyfarfod, o ran y sefydliadau. Ond yn sicr, fel y mae Robin, yr ymchwilydd, newydd nodi, mae modd i'r pwyllgor fod yn gwahodd sefydliadau eraill fel rhan o'n hymchwiliadau ni, os ydy o o ddiddordeb i waith y pwyllgor, yn sicr.

Diolch yn fawr.

A oes unrhyw gwestiynau neu sylwadau eraill? Diolch yn fawr iawn. Dwi'n gweld bod yr Aelodau i gyd yn fodlon.

Fe allwn ni symud ymlaen i'r eitem nesaf, sef eitem 3, cynnig o dan Reol Sefydlog 17.42(ix) i benderfynu gwahardd y cyhoedd o weddill y cyfarfod. Dyma ein gwahodd ni, felly, y pwyllgor, i benderfynu gwahardd y cyhoedd o weddill y cyfarfod er mwyn trafod materion sy'n ymwneud â busnes mewnol y pwyllgor. A yw'r Aelodau'n fodlon efo hyn? Diolch yn fawr. Dwi'n gweld bod pawb o'r Aelodau'n fodlon. Fe fyddwn ni nawr yn bwrw ymlaen yn breifat am weddill y cyfarfod i ystyried ffyrdd y pwyllgor o weithio. Byddwn ni'n aros i glywed ein bod ni mewn sesiwn breifat.
