Wel, rydych wedi profi’r pwynt hwnnw ar ei ben felly.

I didn’t want to finish without mentioning S4C in the minute that I have left. We should also mention the fact that they want to be part of the BBC charter and that they believe that there should be a clause in the new charter talking about their independence and what they do. From what I hear from S4C the Westminster Government may not be 100 per cent in favour of this, but if S4C, for the short term at least, is to be funded through the licence fee, then why shouldn’t they be included as part of that new charter? I think it’s important to establish what their status will be for the future and what the work programme for S4C is to be. Perhaps the Minister can tell us what the response is to this, or perhaps he could speak to S4C and the DCMS on the strategic position of S4C in the future to ensure that they are given the support that they deserve. Thank you.
