> “A year on from the EU referendum it is becoming increasingly clear that it will be impossible to both negotiate a withdrawal agreement and put in place the basis for a future relationship with the EU within 2 years,”


Mr Jones said. 



> "Therefore the priority in negotiations with the EU must now be on agreeing transitional arrangements to come into effect in April 2019\. This will be vital in helping reduce the uncertainty around Brexit, which is damaging to the economy.”


Despite an eventful and often challenging year, the Welsh Government’s Brexit position has remained clear and consistent from the day immediately after the referendum; that the result must be respected and the economy must come first. 


The First Minister said: 



> “Our 6 point plan was greeted with raised eyebrows when we proposed it the morning after the referendum, but it has stood the test of time and has formed the basis for our white paper, Securing Wales’ Future. 
> 
> 
> “Our balanced and coherent approach to leaving the EU, which puts economic interests at the heart of the agenda, is the closest thing the UK has to a realistic negotiating position, which meets the needs of all regions of the UK.”


Looking back at the past 12 months, the First Minister spoke about the Welsh Government’s achievements in their Brexit approach \- from convening an exceptional meeting of the British Irish Council in July last year, launching our white paper – Securing Wales’ Future and the subsequent policy paper on Brexit and Devolution, establishing the European Advisory Group and the Agriculture and Environment Roundtable Group, developing the Business Confidence Plan, and also seeking assurances from the UK Government that our departure from the EU will not negatively impact on our NHS and universities. 


The First Minister added: 



> “It is clear our white paper has influenced the UK government’s approach in important areas such as upholding existing employment rights and the crucial importance of transitional arrangements. We have also secured guarantees from the UK government that they will replace the EU funding Wales would have received up to 2020\. 
> 
> 
> “The uncertainty and instability the UK government has allowed to develop over the past year is now being compounded by the ongoing chaos around the Prime Minister. With no mandate, no clear negotiating strategy and a cabinet riven with disagreement over how we should approach Brexit, the UK government must prioritise transitional arrangements to ensure that the Britain’s interests are best served.”

> “Flwyddyn ar ôl y refferendwm, mae’n dod yn fwyfwy amlwg y bydd negodi cytundeb ymadael, yn ogystal â chreu sylfaen ar gyfer y berthynas â’r UE yn y dyfodol, yn dasg amhosibl i’w chyflawni mewn dwy flynedd,”

meddai Mr Jones. 


> "Felly, wrth drafod gyda’r UE rhaid canolbwyntio ar gytuno ar drefniadau pontio a fydd yn dod i rym ym mis Ebrill 2019\. Bydd hyn yn hanfodol er mwyn helpu i leihau’r ansicrwydd ynghylch Brexit, sy’n niweidio’r economi.”

Er gwaethaf blwyddyn brysur, a heriol yn aml, mae safbwynt Llywodraeth Cymru ar Brexit wedi bod yn glir ac yn gyson ers drannoeth y refferendwm – sef bod rhaid parchu’r canlyniad ac mai’r economi sy’n dod gyntaf. 

Dywedodd y Prif Weinidog: 


> “Roedd pobl braidd yn amheus pan welson nhw ein cynllun chwe phwynt y diwrnod wedi’r refferendwm, ond mae wedi dal ei dir ac wedi’i ddefnyddio’n sail i’n papur gwyn, Diogelu Dyfodol Cymru. 
> 
> “Ein dull cytbwys a chydlynol ni o ymdrin â’r ymadawiad â’r UE, gan roi blaenoriaeth i fuddiannau economaidd, yw’r peth agosaf sydd gan y DU at safbwynt negodi realistig sy’n bodloni anghenion holl ranbarthau’r DU.”

Wrth edrych yn ôl dros y flwyddyn ddiwethaf, soniodd y Prif Weinidog am yr hyn y mae Llywodraeth Cymru wedi’i gyflawni wrth ymdrin â Brexit \- cynnull cyfarfod arbennig o’r Cyngor Prydeinig\-Gwyddelig ym mis Gorffennaf y llynedd, lansio ein papur gwyn Diogelu Dyfodol Cymru a’r papur polisi dilynol ar Brexit a Datganoli, a sefydlu’r Grŵp Cynghori ar Ewrop a’r Grŵp Trafod Amaeth a’r Amgylchedd. Hynny’n ogystal â cheisio sicrhad gan Lywodraeth y DU na fydd ein hymadawiad â’r UE yn cael effaith negyddol ar ein gwasanaeth iechyd a’n prifysgolion.

Ychwanegodd y Prif Weinidog: 


> “Mae’n amlwg bod ein papur gwyn ni wedi dylanwadu ar agwedd Llywodraeth y DU mewn meysydd pwysig megis cadw’r hawliau cyflogaeth presennol a phwysigrwydd hanfodol trefniadau pontio. Rydym hefyd wedi cael gwarant gan Lywodraeth y DU y byddant yn rhoi arian yn lle’r cyllid Ewropeaidd y byddai Cymru wedi’i dderbyn hyd at 2020\.  
> 
> “Mae’r ansicrwydd ac ansefydlogrwydd mae Llywodraeth DU wedi gadael i ddatblygu dros y flwyddyn diwethaf nawr yn cael ei gwaethygu gan yr anhrefn o gwmpas y Prif Weinidog.
> 
> “Heb fandad, heb strategaeth trafodaeth glir a gyda’r anghytundeb yn y cabinet ar sut i ymdrin â Brexit, bydd raid i lywodraeth y DU roi blaenoriaeth i drefniadau pontio nawr er mwyn sicrhau’r budd gorau i Brydain.”
