Or is there no obligation at all to publish anything under the £25,000?

I just have one question. On pack page 24 it says—and this is the first paragraph underneath the chart— ‘A list of completed projects by Local Partnerships is provided at Annex. In terms of transparency, Welsh Government publishes expenditures over £25,000’…

Chair, can I make a suggestion, please? Just following on from what has Dave said, in relation to the fact that we have to click on link after link after link, I think it may be worthwhile and prudent for us as a committee to request, Owain, please, in the…

That was my only slight concern. Like I say, everything else in the letter I was happy to agree with, but I just wanted to know what does that imply when it comes to this digital element going forward, because if it's costing £3.6 million now, they haven't…

Thank you, Chair. I'm happy to note, as Rhianon said, but there is just one paragraph that slightly set small alarm bells off within my head, and that was on pack page 19, the paragraph under the update section. It says: 'Due to the current funding structure…

I'm more than happy to have a debate on this—I'll back Mike on that one—if we can, and I'm more than happy to contribute to that.

Thank you, Chair. I'm happy to note the letter sent by the Chair of the Culture, Communications, Welsh Language, Sport and International Relations Committee, and I have no problem with keeping them abreast as to what we're doing in the committee in relation…

Questions to the Deputy First Minister and Cabinet Secretary for Climate Change and Rural Affairs
That's fine. As you get the gist, Deputy First Minister, with these quite frankly repulsive tabs being picked up by the taxpayer, in the middle of a cost-of-living crisis, and when every Government-run organisation is running out of money, I just wondered if…

Questions to the Deputy First Minister and Cabinet Secretary for Climate Change and Rural Affairs
Cabinet Secretary, Natural Resources Wales, like many Government-funded organisations, are struggling with severe financial difficulties. To be precise, I'm sure you're aware of a £13 million funding gap over the last year, which is expected to rise to £17…

Questions to the Cabinet Secretary for Finance and Welsh Language
Cabinet Secretary, whilst, of course, we all want to see the Welsh language supported across Wales, including South Wales East, I believe that it's really, really important, where safety applies, to make sure that both English and Welsh are clearly presented…

Instruments that raise issues to be reported to the Senedd under Standing Order 21.2 or 21.3—previously considered
Understood. Then, Chair, in that case, can we please write, as Kate just stated, and please ask for greater clarification and just ease when it comes to the reading and interpretation of the documents that they are putting together, because—it's difficult…

Instruments that raise issues to be reported to the Senedd under Standing Order 21.2 or 21.3—previously considered
Sorry, Chair, I'd just like to ask a quick question, if that's okay. In relation to this one, out of everything I've read so far, there seem to be a lot of defective elements in this particular area. So, I just wanted to know, for my own personal knowledge…
