Heddiw, mae Bil Senedd Cymru (Rhestrau Ymgeiswyr Etholiadol) a'r Memorandwm Esboniadol yn cael eu gosod gerbron y Senedd.

Nod y Bil yw gwneud y Senedd yn fwy effeithiol drwy adlewyrchu cyfansoddiad pobl Cymru o ran rhywedd yn well. 

Mae'n gwneud darpariaeth i gyflwyno cwotâu rhywedd statudol integredig i'r system y darperir ar ei chyfer ym Mil Senedd Cymru (Aelodau ac Etholiadau) er mwyn ethol Aelodau o'r Senedd. Bydd y darpariaethau'n gymwys pan fydd plaid wleidyddol gofrestredig yn dewis cyflwyno rhestr neu restrau o ymgeiswyr i'w hethol i'r Senedd. Mae'r Bil yn creu rheolau y mae'n rhaid i restrau ymgeiswyr o'r fath gydymffurfio â nhw.

Mae'r Bil yn rhan o becyn o ddiwygiadau sydd â'r nod o gryfhau'r Senedd. Mae hyn yn cynnwys Bil Senedd Cymru (Aelodau ac Etholiadau), sy'n mynd drwy'r broses graffu yn y Senedd ar hyn o bryd. Mae'n gwireddu argymhelliad Pwyllgor Diben Arbennig y Senedd ar Ddiwygio'r Senedd y dylai Llywodraeth Cymru gyflwyno deddfwriaeth yn y maes hwn. Mae’r Bil hwn yn rhan o'r‌ Cytundeb Cydweithio rhwng Llywodraeth Cymru a Phlaid Cymru.

Rwy'n edrych ymlaen at waith craffu'r Aelodau ar y Bil, ac at glywed barn rhanddeiliaid, partneriaid cyflawni a'r cyhoedd yn ystod y broses ddeddfwriaethol.

Today, the Senedd Cymru (Electoral Candidate Lists) Bill and Explanatory Memorandum is laid before the Senedd.

The Bill aims to make the Senedd more effective by better reflecting the gender make\-up of people in Wales. 

It makes provision to introduce integrated statutory gender quotas to the system provided for in the Senedd Cymru (Members and Elections) Bill for electing Members of the Senedd (MSs). The provisions will apply where a registered political party chooses to submit a list or lists of candidates for election to the Senedd. The Bill creates rules with which such candidate lists must comply.

The Bill is part of a package of reforms aimed at strengthening the Senedd that includes the Senedd Cymru (Members and Elections) Bill, which is currently being scrutinised by the Senedd. It delivers on the recommendation of the Senedd’s Special Purpose Committee on Senedd Reform that the Welsh Government brings forward legislation in this area. This Bill forms part of the Co\-operation Agreement between the Welsh Government and Plaid Cymru. 

I look forward to scrutiny of the Bill by Members, and to hearing the views of stakeholders, delivery partners, and the public during the legislative process.

Today I am publishing our second annual report in relation to *Cymraeg 2050: a million Welsh speakers*, the Welsh Government’s long term strategy for the Welsh language.


The strategy has three strategic themes to achieve this vision:


* Theme 1: Increasing the number of Welsh speakers
* Theme 2: Increasing the use of Welsh
* Theme 3: Creating favourable conditions – Infrastructure and context


In this report, you can see how we have continued to work across these themes in order to lay the necessary foundations, and to make progress towards our national target of a million Welsh speakers.


Although it’s only two years since its launch, the report shows that we are making progress across the strategy, and that if we can just get to grips with some areas which need to be developed further, we can make significant strides during the strategy’s next phase.

Minister for North Wales Ken Skates today urged people to carry on complying with the restrictions to protect themselves and others against coronavirus.


Traffic across the network in North Wales has been around 70% lower than normal levels, showing the vast majority of people are staying at home. 


Speaking ahead of the holiday weekend, the Minister said:



> “I’d like to thank everyone who is following the regulations. You are all playing your part in saving lives and protecting the NHS.

Roedd y Corff Adolygu yn argymell cynyddu pob ystod cyflog a lwfans statudol 2\.4 y cant. Yn ei hymateb, mae'r Gweinidog wedi nodi ei bod am roi codiad cyflog uwch i'r rhan fwyaf o athrawon, sef 2\.75 y cant.

The announcement coincides with the publication of the first report of the new Independent Welsh Pay Review Body (IWPRB), which provided recommendations for teachers’ pay and conditions from September 2019, following the devolution of powers over teachers’ pay and conditions last year. 


The IWPRB recommended that all statutory pay ranges and allowances be increased by 2\.4%. In her response, the minister has proposed a higher pay rise for most teachers, of 2\.75%. 


The minister has proposed accepting the Review Body’s recommendation to uplift the minimum pay point on the teachers’ main pay range by 5%.


The pay increases will be subject to an 8 week stakeholder consultation.  


Education Minister, Kirsty Williams, said: 



> “I want to continue to promote teaching as a profession of choice for graduates and career changers. That’s why we’re proposing an uplift to the minimum pay point for teachers by 5%, which will help us continue to attract high quality teachers to the profession.
> 
> 
> “As this year we are using our devolved responsibilities for the first time, I am also proposing a 2\.75% pay rise for all school teachers in Wales from September.

> 
> “This will have a positive effect on ensuring we continue to attract high quality teachers to the profession in Wales, alongside our reforms to professional learning, the curriculum and teacher training.”

We are pleased to announce that we have received the report from Professor Karen Graham of Glyndwr University, entitled “Review of childcare and early education registration, regulation and inspection” (the Graham Review).


The review, which started its work in October 2013, was asked to focus on testing the regulatory and inspection systems for early years provision in Wales, particularly in light of Welfare Reform changes and the HMRC tax\-free childcare consultation, and to identify, where necessary, recommendations for improvement.  


The Review has made some interesting observations and recommendations which we will consider in more detail over the summer.  The Executive Summary, along with the review recommendations, will be published today so that we can start to have an open dialogue with key stakeholders ahead of the publication of the full report during the summer.


The Review’s recommendations will be considered alongside the outcomes of the Flying Start and Foundation Phase evaluations, the Foundation Phase stocktake, and other ongoing reviews.  Together it is intended that these findings will provide a broad evidence base to inform future policy development, drive quality and raise standards across childcare and early education in Wales.

Mae’n dda gennym ni gyhoeddi bod adroddiad gan yr Athro Karen Graham, o Brifysgol Glyndŵr, wedi dod i law, sef yr Adolygiad Annibynnol o Gofrestru, Rheoleiddio ac Arolygu Gofal Plant ac Addysg y Blynyddoedd Cynnar (adolygiad Graham).

Gofynnwyd i’r Adolygiad, a ddechreuodd ar ei waith ym mis Hydref 2013, edrych ar y systemau a ddefnyddir i reoleiddio ac arolygu darpariaeth y blynyddoedd cynnar yng Nghymru, yn enwedig yng ngoleuni’r diwygiadau lles a gyflwynwyd a’r ymgynghoriad a gynhaliwyd ar sut y byddai Cyllid a Thollau EM yn sicrhau bod gofal plant yn ddi\-dreth. Hefyd gofynnwyd i’r Adolygiad wneud argymhellion ar gyfer gwella, lle bo hynny’n briodol.  

Mewn ymateb, mae’r Adolygiad wedi gwneud nifer o sylwadau ac argymhellion diddorol, a byddaf yn ystyried y rhain yn fanwl dros yr haf. Cyhoeddir yr adroddiad ar ôl y gwyliau, ochr yn ochr â’m hymateb cyntaf i’w argymhellion.

Bwriedir i’r casgliadau at ei gilydd greu sylfaen eang o dystiolaeth a fydd yn ein helpu i ddatblygu polisïau yn y dyfodol, gan sicrhau ansawdd a chodi safonau ar draws darpariaethau gofal ac addysg y blynyddoedd cynnar yng Nghymru.

Yn unol â'r newidiadau sy'n cael eu gwneud yng ngweddill y Deyrnas Unedig, rwy’n cyhoeddi heddiw y bydd pobl sydd wedi cael brechlyn sydd â statws Rhestr Defnydd Brys Sefydliad Iechyd y Byd, mewn gwlad sy'n rhoi tystysgrifau brechu cydnabyddedig, yn gorfod cymryd prawf ar ddiwrnod 2 yn unig ar ôl cyrraedd Cymru. Gall hwn fod yn brawf llif unffordd.


Mae'r newid yn golygu na fydd gofyn mwyach i bobl sydd wedi cael y brechlynnau hyn gymryd prawf cyn ymadael na phrawf PCR ar ddiwrnod 8, ac na fydd angen iddynt hunanynysu ar ôl cyrraedd Cymru.


Y brechlynnau sydd â statws Rhestr Defnydd Brys Sefydliad Iechyd y Byd ar hyn o bryd yw Sinopharm, Sinovax a Covaxin.


Nid yw hwn yn newid heb risg ond, fel rwyf wedi nodi o'r blaen, mae'n anodd i ni ddilyn trefn iechyd wahanol i'r hyn sy'n ofynnol gan Lywodraeth y DU o ran y ffin, gan fod y rhan fwyaf o deithwyr rhyngwladol sy'n cyrraedd Cymru yn dod drwy borthladdoedd a meysydd awyr yn Lloegr.

In line with changes being made in the rest of the UK, I am today announcing people who received vaccines with World Health Organisation (WHO) Emergency Use Listing status in a country issuing recognised vaccine certificates will only need to take a day two test following their arrival in Wales. This can be a lateral flow test. 


The change means people who have had these vaccines will no longer be required to take a pre\-departure test and day eight PCR test, or isolate after arriving in the Wales.


The vaccines which currently have WHO Emergency Use Listing status are Sinopharm, Sinovax and Covaxin.


This change is not without risk but, as I have highlighted previously, it is difficult for us to adopt a different border health regime to that required by the UK Government as the majority of international travellers arriving in Wales enter via ports and airports in England.


The change will come into force in Wales from 22 November 2021\.

The medicine will be available for eligible patients with Cystic Fibrosis (CF) from the point at which it is granted its European marketing authorisation later this summer.  This follows a last year’s agreement which made Vertex’s other medicines,  Kalydeco®, Orkambi® and Symkevi® available for CF patients in Wales.


The Minister for Health, Vaughan Gething, said:



> I’m pleased to confirm Kaftrio® will be made available to all eligible patients in Wales. I know many families will welcome the news. I have always made it clear that new and innovative medicines should be made available quickly and consistently for patients in Wales but only where their cost fairly reflects the evidence of their benefits.

I have always been committed to the expansion of medical education and training in North Wales, which is why I have supported Cardiff and Bangor Universities in their collaboration on the C21 Programme. This Programme has successfully allowed medical students to undertake a significant part of their study at Bangor University.


This programme was made possible by Welsh Government funding of £7m per annum which was provided as a development fund for undergraduate medical training in North Wales. A total of 19 students began their studies on the C21 Programme in 2019/20 intake; 18 students are due to begin the Programme for the 2020/21 intake.


I have recently received a joint report from Professor Iwan Davies, Vice Chancellor of Bangor University and Mark Polin OBE, QPM, Chair of Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board. The report sets out the options for a health and medicine school in North Wales and symbolises the ambition the health board and partners have for health and care in the region.


I have asked my officials to set up a Task and Finish Group to explore the feasibility of the proposals put forward by Bangor University and Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board. This group will include relevant stakeholders who will be able to provide their knowledge and expertise to fully explore the proposals. Once established, I will ask this group to provide me with a detailed report including recommendations on whether this proposal is practical and achievable.

Gwnaed y rhaglen hon yn bosibl trwy gyllid o £7m y flwyddyn gan Lywodraeth Cymru a ddarparwyd fel cronfa ddatblygu ar gyfer cynnig hyfforddiant meddygol i israddedigion yn y Gogledd. Dechreuodd 19 o fyfyrwyr ar eu hastudiaethau o dan y Rhaglen C21 ym mlwyddyn academaidd 2019/20; ac mae 18 o fyfyrwyr yn bwriadu dechrau astudio o dan y rhaglen yn 2020/21\.


Yn ddiweddar, cefais adroddiad ar y cyd gan yr Athro Iwan Davies, Is\-Ganghellor Prifysgol Bangor a Mark Polin OBE, QPM, Cadeirydd Bwrdd Iechyd Prifysgol Betsi Cadwaladr. Mae’r adroddiad hwnnw’n nodi’r opsiynau ar gyfer darparu ysgol iechyd a meddygaeth yn y Gogledd, ac mae’n symbol o’r uchelgais sydd gan y bwrdd iechyd a phartneriaid eraill ar gyfer y sector iechyd a gofal yn y rhanbarth.


Rwyf wedi gofyn i’m swyddogion sefydlu Grŵp Gorchwyl a Gorffen i ymchwilio i ymarferoldeb cynigion Prifysgol Bangor a Bwrdd Iechyd Prifysgol Betsi Cadwaladr. Bydd y grŵp yn cynnwys rhanddeiliaid a fydd yn gallu defnyddio eu gwybodaeth a’u harbenigedd i bwyso a mesur y cynigion yn drylwyr. Wedi iddo gael ei sefydlu, byddaf yn gofyn i’r grŵp baratoi adroddiad manwl imi, gan gynnwys argymhellion ynghylch a fyddai’r cynnig hwn yn ymarferol ac a fyddai’n bosibl ei wireddu.

Hoffwn hysbysu Aelodau'r Cynulliad fy mod i wedi cytuno i ryddhau'r gyllideb ar gyfer trydedd flwyddyn y cynllun cymorth i newydd\-ddyfodiaid (YESS). £1\.705 miliwn fydd cyllideb y cynllun eleni hefyd.

Roedd cryn ddiddordeb yn nhrydedd flwyddyn y cynllun ac roedd safon y prosiectau a gynigiwyd yn uchel iawn. Mae llythyron cynnig wedi eu cyhoeddi, ac ar ôl cadarnhau'r cytundebau, caiff manylion llawn eu rhoi ynghylch nifer y ceisiadau llwyddiannus.

Mae'r cymorth parhaus ar gyfer y cynllun hwn yn dangos ymrwymiad y Llywodraeth i gefnogi entrepreneuriaeth yr ifanc a newid rhwng y cenedlaethau, er mwyn helpu i sicrhau dyfodol llewyrchus i amaethyddiaeth Cymru.

Hoffwn hysbysu'r Aelodau bod Gwobr Goffa Brynle Williams i gydnabod cyfraniad ein cyn gyd\-Aelod at amaeth Cymru, fel Aelod y Cynulliad ac fel ffermwr, i’w gynnal eto eleni. Caiff enillydd y wobr flynyddol hon ei ddewis o blith ymgeiswyr llwyddiannus ail flwyddyn cynllun YESS a'i gyhoeddi yn Sioe Amaethyddol Frenhinol Cymru. Rwy'n meddwl ei bod yn briodol iawn bod y wobr hon yn mynd i ffermwr ifanc gan ei fod yn adlewyrchu cymorth cadarn parhaus Brynle i ddiwydiant amaethyddol Cymru a'i gred bod ein pobl ifanc yn gallu sicrhau dyfodol ffyniannus i'r sector ffermio yn y wlad hon.

I wish to inform Assembly Members that I have agreed to release the budget for the third year of the Young Entrants Support scheme (YESS) and that the budget for this year’s scheme will remain at £1\.705 million.


Interest in the third year of the scheme was very strong, and the quality of the proposed projects was again of a very high standard.  Offer letters have been issued and following confirmation of agreements, full details regarding the number of successful applicants will be announced.


The continued support for this scheme shows this Government’s determination to support youth entrepreneurship and inter\-generational change, to help secure a vibrant future for Welsh agriculture.


I also wish to inform Members that the annual Brynle Williams Memorial Award to recognise our former colleague’s contribution to Welsh agriculture, both as Assembly Member and a farmer will be held again this year.  The winner of the award will be selected from the successful applicants to the second year of the YESS scheme and will be announced at this year’s Royal Welsh Agricultural Show.  I think it most apt that this award will go to a young farmer as it reflects Brynle’s unwavering support for the Welsh agricultural industry and his belief in our young people to deliver a successful future for the farming sector in this country.

Bydd y grant yn helpu i ariannu gwaith atgyweirio brys yn y ganolfan gan gynnwys gosod to newydd, trwsio gwifrau ac inswleiddio, cyfarpar newydd ar gyfer y pwll nofio ac uwchraddio'r system CCTV a'r larwm tân.

Wrth gyhoeddi'r cyllid, dywedodd Carl Sargeant, Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet dros Gymunedau a Phlant y byddai'r grant yn sicrhau bod y ganolfan yn addas i'r diben ac yn gallu parhau i ddarparu gwasanaethau hanfodol i'r ardal leol. 

Dywedodd:


> "Mae'r ganolfan yn gyfleuster cymunedol pwysig. Nid ar gyfer gweithgareddau chwaraeon a ffitrwydd yn unig y mae'n cael ei defnyddio. Mae yna gaffi cymunedol yn y ganolfan ynghyd â lle chwarae meddal i blant a man i'r gymuned gyfarfod. Caiff y cyfleusterau hyn eu defnyddio'n rheolaidd gan amryw o grwpiau gan gynnwys Cymunedau yn Gyntaf a'r Ganolfan Cyngor ar Bopeth.
> 
> "Mae'n bleser gennyf gymeradwyo'r grant hwn fel bod gwaith yn gallu dechrau ar y ganolfan i sicrhau ei bod yn gynaliadwy ar gyfer y dyfodol."

The grant will help fund a series of urgent repairs to the centre including a replacement roof, fixing wiring and insulation, replacing pool plant equipment and upgrading the CCTV and fire alarm.


Announcing the funding, Cabinet Secretary for Communities and Children, Carl Sargeant, said the grant would ensure the centre is fit for purpose and could continue to provide vital services to the local area.


Carl Sargeant said:



> “The centre is an important community facility. It is not only used for sports and fitness activities. As well as a community café there is a children’s soft play area and community meeting space all of which are well used by a range of groups including Communities First and Citizens Advice.
> 
> 
> “I am pleased to approve this grant so that work can start on the facility and help make it sustainable into the future.”

Dywedodd Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet dros Iechyd, Vaughan Gething:

 
> “Calondid yw gweld gostyngiad o 15 y cant yn nifer y bobl sydd â nam newydd ar y golwg yng Nghymru.  Am fod poblogaeth Cymru’n heneiddio a’i hanghenion iechyd yn rhai cymhleth roeddem yn disgwyl gwneud cynnydd yn y ffigur hwnnw.     
>   
> “Rydym yn canfod cyflyrau’r llygaid yn gynt ac ,ynghyd â thriniaethau mwy newydd a mwy effeithiol, mae hyn yn helpu i sicrhau bod llai o bobl yn datblygu nam ar y golwg yng Nghymru.”

 Dywedodd Dr Barbara Ryan, y Prif Gynghorydd Optometrig: 

 
> “Cafwyd dros filiwn o ymgynghoriadau gofal llygaid y llynedd yn GIG Cymru, a gellir priodoli’r llwyddiant hwn i’n staff ymroddedig, a hynny mewn gofal sylfaenol ac eilaidd, sy’n gallu bod yn falch o’u hymdrechion.    
>   
> “Er hynny, gwyddom fod llawer mwy i’w wneud.  Gwyddom fod mwy o bobl nag erioed yn cael eu hatgyfeirio at offthalmolegwyr a bod gwaith i’w wneud i sicrhau bod pobl yn cael eu trin mewn ffordd amserol.    
>

Cabinet Secretary for Health Vaughan Gething said: 

 
> “It’s reassuring to see that the number of people with a new sight impairment in Wales has decreased by 15 per cent.  An ageing population with complex health needs means that figure was predicted to rise.    
>   
> “We are detecting eye conditions earlier and coupled with newer, more effective treatments, this is helping to ensure fewer people develop sight loss in Wales.”

 Dr Barbara Ryan, Chief Optometric Advisor, said:

 
> “There were over 1 million eye care consultations last year in NHS Wales, and this success is thanks to our dedicated staff, in primary and secondary care, who can be proud of their efforts.    
>   
> “However, we know that there is a lot more to do.  We know that more people than ever before are being referred to ophthalmologists and that there is work to do to ensure more people are treated in a timely fashion.

Bydd y 22 o fflatiau a thai newydd yn ein helpu i gyrraedd ein targed uchelgeisiol o ddarparu 20,000 o gartrefi newydd yn ystod tymor y llywodraeth hon. 

 Dywedodd Carl Sargeant:

 
> "Mae tai’n gymaint fwy na dim ond brics a mortar. Cafodd ei brofi bod cael cartref addas mewn cymuned ddiogel yn cael effaith bositif ar iechyd a lles, a bod hynny’n helpu i wella cyfleoedd bywyd pobl. Dyna’r rheswm pam mae darparu cartrefi diogel a chlud yn un o’n prif flaenoriaethau, a’n bod wedi ymrwymo i ddarparu 20,000 yn rhagor o dai newydd yn ystod tymor y llywodraeth hon.

>  "Mae cyrraedd y targed uchelgeisiol hwn yn dipyn o her, ond rydyn ni’n benderfynol o wneud popeth o fewn ein gallu i wneud yn siŵr ein bod yn llwyddo. Mae angen inni gyflymu’r broses o adeiladu tai, ac rydyn ni’n credu y gall partneriaethau tymor hir ein helpu i wneud hynny. Rydyn ni’n gwerthfawrogi’n fawr cyfraniad ein landlordiaid cymdeithasol a’r berthynas gadarnhaol ac adeiladol sydd rhyngon ni, ac rwy’n edrych ymlaen at weithio’n agos gyda nhw er mwyn gwella bywydau tenantiaid."

This is why providing people with a safe, warm and secure home is one of our key priorities and why we have pledged to provide a further 20,000 affordable homes during this term of government.

On 26 June 2012, I issued the consultation on the proposals to reform legislative framework surrounding the provision for children with additional needs. I am publishing the summary of responses to the consultation in two parts.  I am today issuing the summary of the responses to Chapter 10 of this consultation which deals with the proposals on Post\-16 specialist placements.


The consultation provided details on the proposal to give the responsibility for assessing the need for, securing and funding specialist further education to local authorities in Wales. This includes residential accommodation for learners with learning difficulties.  The duty currently lies with Welsh Ministers, it is my intention to bring forward legislation to transfer this duty to local authorities in line with the proposal.


The consultation closed on the 19 October and I was pleased to receive over 200 responses from parents, children, schools, local authorities, health boards, teaching unions, professional bodies, the Children’s Commissioner for Wales and many more. The majority of responses agreed with the proposal. Full details of the responses can be found online.
