I visited Gibraltar on 29 and 30 June at the invitation of the Chief Minister, the Hon. Fabian Picardo, QC, MP.  

  

The purpose of the visit was to discuss our respective views of the challenges and opportunities created by the UK’s withdrawal from the EU, of the UK Government’s negotiating position as set out in the Article 50 letter from the Prime Minister to the President of the European Council and of the current state of the negotiations. The visit was also intended to enable us to understand better each other’s priorities for the outcome of the negotiations.  

  

For Gibraltar, these priorities include: ensuring continued relatively unimpeded movement of people and goods across the border with Spain; ensuring that any future trade agreement between the UK and the EU\-27, as well as any new free trade agreements with third countries include Gibraltar while fully respecting its status as a self\-governing Overseas Territory; and securing continued high levels of access to both the UK market and the EU Single Market.  

  

I had the opportunity of discussing these issues over a working dinner with the Chief Minister, the Minister for Economic Development (and former Chief Minister), the Hon. Joe Bossano, MP and the Minister for Housing and Equality, the Hon. Samantha Sacramento, MP.  

  

I also had a separate meeting with the Deputy Chief Minister, the Hon. Dr. Joseph Garcia, MP who leads on European affairs and the Brexit negotiations. These meetings also enabled us to discuss ways of ensuring closer engagement over the Brexit negotiations between Wales, and potentially the other Devolved Administrations, and Gibraltar in future.  

  

As well as these meetings with the Government, I was received by the Governor of Gibraltar, His Excellency Lieutenant General Edward Davis, CB, CBE, KStJ. In order to hear at first hand the concerns and aspirations of the business community, I also met with representatives of the Gibraltar Chamber of Commerce and the Gibraltar Federation of Small Businesses.  

  

Finally, I attended a small lunch hosted by the Hon. Albert Isola MP, Minister for Financial Services and Gaming, which provided an opportunity to meet other leading figures in Gibraltar, including Sir Peter Caruana, KCMG, QC who was Chief Minister from 1996 to 2011 and the Minister for Health, Care and Justice, the Hon. Neil F. Costa, MP.

Fe ymwelais â Gibraltar ar 29 a 30 Mehefin ar wahoddiad y Prif Weinidog, yr Anrhydeddus Fabian Picardo, CF, AS.   
  
Diben yr ymweliad oedd trafod barn y naill a’r llall am yr heriau a'r cyfleoedd a ddaw yn sgil ymadawiad y DU â'r UE; safbwynt negodi Llywodraeth y DU fel yr amlinellwyd ef yn y llythyr Erthygl 50 gan y Prif Weinidog at Lywydd y Cyngor Ewropeaidd, a sefyllfa'r trafodaethau ar hyn o bryd. Bwriad arall i'r ymweliad oedd ein galluogi i ddeall blaenoriaethau ein gilydd yn well o ran canlyniad y trafodaethau.   
  
I Gibraltar, roedd y blaenoriaethau hyn yn cynnwys: sicrhau bod modd i bobl a nwyddau barhau i symud yn gymharol ddirwystr dros y ffin â Sbaen; sicrhau bod Gibraltar yn cael ei chynnwys mewn unrhyw gytundeb masnach rydd yn y dyfodol rhwng y DU a 27 gwlad yr UE, yn ogystal ag unrhyw gytundebau masnach rydd newydd â thrydydd gwledydd, gan barhau i barchu ei statws yn llawn fel Tiriogaeth Dramor hunanlywodraethol; a sicrhau lefelau mynediad uchel a pharhaus at farchnad y DU a marchnad sengl yr UE.   
  
Cefais y cyfle i drafod y materion hyn dros ginio gyda'r Prif Weinidog, y Gweinidog Datblygu Economaidd (a'r cyn Brif Weinidog), yr Anrhydeddus Joe Bossano, AS a'r Gweinidog Tai a Chydraddoldeb, yr Anrhydeddus Samantha Sacramento, AS.   
  
Yn ogystal â hyn, cefais gyfarfod ar wahân â'r Dirprwy Brif Weinidog, yr Anrhydeddus Dr Joseph Garcia, AS, sy'n arwain materion Ewropeaidd a'r trafodaethau Brexit. Roedd y cyfarfodydd hyn hefyd yn gyfle inni drafod ffyrdd o sicrhau bod cydweithio agosach yn digwydd yn ystod trafodaethau Brexit rhwng Cymru, ac o bosibl y Gweinyddiaethau Datganoledig eraill, a Gibraltar yn y dyfodol.   
  
Yn ogystal â'r cyfarfodydd hyn â'r Llywodraeth, cefais fy nghyflwyno i Lywodraethwr Gibraltar, Ei Ardderchogrwydd yr Is\-gadfridog Edward Davis, CB, CBE, KStJ. Er mwyn clywed pryderon a dyheadau'r gymuned fusnes drosof fy hun, cefais hefyd gyfarfod â chynrychiolwyr o Siambr Fasnach a Ffederasiwn Busnesau Bach Gibraltar.   
  
Yn olaf, bûm yn bresennol mewn cinio bach a oedd yn cael ei gynnal gan yr Anrhydeddus Albert Isola, AS, y Gweinidog Gwasanaethau Ariannol a Hapchwarae. Dyma gyfle i gyfarfod ag unigolion blaenllaw eraill yn Gibraltar, gan gynnwys Syr Peter Caruana, KCMG, CF a fu'n Brif Weinidog o 1996 i 2011, a'r Gweinidog Iechyd, Gofal a Chyfiawnder, yr Anrhydeddus Neil F. Costa, AS.
