You know, ‘diwedd y gân yw’r geiniog’. Funding is clearly important. The Cabinet Secretary for Communities and Children has made statements on the future of Communities First, and I’ve nothing to add to that. In terms of ‘mentrau iaith’, they will be a key part of the overall Welsh language strategy, which is seeking to increase the opportunities to use Welsh, particularly in places like Swansea or Blaenau Gwent, where Welsh might not be the language of communication in the community as a whole. So, certainly, I would see an important role for ‘mentrau iaith’ in achieving that as part of our overall Welsh language strategy.
