I just want to understand what's the definition that's being used in this case of 'Welsh-medium education'. That is, what is the expectation in these settings - is it that one member of staff can speak Welsh? What exactly is the definition of 'Welsh-medium education'? Perhaps you can answer.

Rydw i jest eisiau deall beth yw'r diffiniad sydd yn cael ei ddefnyddio yn yr achos yma o 'addysg cyfrwng Cymraeg'. Hynny yw, beth ydy'r disgwyliad yn y llefydd yma - ai bod yna un person ar y staff yn gallu siarad Cymraeg? Beth yn union yw'r diffiniad o 'cyfrwng Cymraeg'? Efallai medrwch chi ateb.
Our 'Prosperity for All' strategy and the economic action plan do set out our actions for all parts of Wales to contribute to and benefit from economic growth. That obviously includes enabling our cities and large towns to be engines of growth that benefit their wider region.

Mae ein strategaeth 'Ffyniant i Bawb' a'r cynllun gweithredu economaidd yn nodi ein camau gweithredu ar gyfer pob rhan o Gymru i gyfrannu at dwf economaidd ac elwa arno. Mae hynny'n amlwg yn cynnwys galluogi ein dinasoedd a'n trefi mawr i fod yn ysgogwyr twf sydd o fudd i'w rhanbarthau ehangach.
Ie, ac nid cyfrifoldeb un Gweinidog yw hyn. Yn wir, ar ôl i Lesley Griffiths wneud y cyhoeddiad ar fater lleoliadau cerddoriaeth, siaradais â Ken Skates ddoe ddiwethaf am y cyfleoedd adfywio ac o bosibl, meysydd o ddiwylliant y gellid eu dynodi ar gyfer adfywio, a allai gynnwys lleoliadau celfyddydau ac adloniant yn aml. Cyfarfûm â CAMRA, ac rydym wedi cael trafodaethau o fewn ein tîm ynglŷn â'r cyfleoedd posibl o ran ateb Cymreig i dafarndai ac adeiladau eraill sy'n cael eu cynnal yn gyhoeddus yng Nghymru. Gobeithio y byddaf yn gallu gwneud cyhoeddiad ar hynny cyn bo hir.

Yes, and this isn't one Minister's responsibility. Indeed, after Lesley Griffiths made the announcement around the issue of music venues, I spoke to Ken Skates only yesterday about the regeneration opportunities and perhaps areas of culture that could be designated for regeneration, which often may include arts and entertainment venues. I did meet with CAMRA and we've had some discussions within our team about what the opportunities may be in terms of a Welsh-based solution for pubs and other publicly run buildings in Wales. I hope that I'll be able to make an announcement shortly on that.

Galwaf yn awr ar lefarwyr y pleidiau i ofyn cwestiynau i'r Ysgrifennydd Cabinet, ac yn gyntaf yr wythnos yma, llefarydd Plaid Cymru, Adam Price.

I now call on the party spokespeople to ask questions of the Cabinet Secretary, and first this week, the Plaid Cymru spokesperson, Adam Price.

A ffigurau penodol yn hytrach na'r ranges dŷn ni wedi bod yn eu cael. Ydych chi'n hapus bod y ffigur yn ddigon cywir i ni beidio â gorfod meddwl yn hytrach am ystod o gost posibl?

And specific figures other than the ranges we've been receiving. Are you happy that those figures are accurate enough for us to not to have to look for a range of possible costs?

Arweinydd y tŷ, o ganlyniad i ailbrisio, mae'r gwerth ardrethol cyfartalog yn Rhondda Cynon Taf wedi gostwng gan 6.1 y cant. Gan fod hwn yn batrwm eithaf cyffredin ar draws yr ardal, pa effaith allai hyn ei chael ar bolisïau Llywodraeth Cymru tuag at hybu ffyniant economaidd ar draws Cymoedd y De?

Leader of the house, as a result of revaluation, the average rateable value in Rhondda Cynon Taff has decreased by 6.1 per cent. With this being a fairly common pattern across the area, what impact could this have on the Welsh Government's policies towards promoting economic prosperity across the south Wales Valleys?
Yes. I expect all patients to be seen in a timely manner based on clinical need. I expect the health board to continue to work closely with the planned care programme to develop a sustainable service.

Gwnaf. Rwy'n disgwyl y bydd pob claf yn cael eu gweld mewn modd amserol yn seiliedig ar eu hangen clinigol. Rwy'n disgwyl y bydd y bwrdd iechyd yn parhau i weithio'n agos gyda'r rhaglen gofal wedi'i gynllunio i ddatblygu gwasanaeth cynaliadwy.
Diolch am yr ateb hwnnw, Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet. Bydd ysgolion yn amlwg yn elwa o'r math o gyngor a chymorth rydych yn sôn amdanynt, ac rwy'n sylweddoli bod gwella ysgolion yn broses barhaus, a dyna pam fy mod yn pryderu am y diffyg cymorth pendant a adlewyrchir yn y canllawiau ar y system gategoreiddio ysgolion. Fodd bynnag, bydd rhai pobl ifanc wedi treulio eu haddysg naill ai mewn ysgol categori oren neu goch wrth i chi fynd ati i wella ysgolion gan bwyll bach. Beth a wnewch i wella cyfleoedd bywyd pobl ifanc y mae'r system addysg yng Nghymru wedi gwneud cam â hwy?

Thank you for that answer, Cabinet Secretary. Schools will clearly benefit from the kind of advice and support you're talking about, and I realise that improving schools is an ongoing process, which is why the lack of concrete support reflected in the guidance on the school classification system concerns me. However, there are young people who will have spent their education in either an amber or red classified school whilst you're taking the softly softly approach to school improvement. What are you going to do to improve the life chances of young people who have been failed by the Welsh education system?

Diolch. A ydych yn dymuno ymateb i'r ddadl?

Thank you. Do you wish to reply to the debate?

Rwyf i'n mynd i siarad Cymraeg. Rydych chi wedi siarad amdano fe yn barod, i ryw raddau, ond roeddwn i jest eisiau cael mwy o grasp ar a ydych chi'n credu mai diffyg ymwybyddiaeth o'r gyfraith sydd ar waith yma, neu a yw e'n rhywbeth systemataidd o ran diwylliant. Neu a oes yna ddiffyg rhannu gwybodaeth rhwng rheolwyr? Felly, mae lot o dystiolaeth yr ydym wedi'i chael lle y mae pobl yn cael gwahanol brofiadau - profiadau gwych gan rai rheolwyr ond profiadau gwael iawn gyda rheolwyr eraill. Beth ydych chi'n credu yw gwraidd y broblem?

I'm going to be asking my questions in Welsh. You've spoken about it already, to some extent, but I just wanted to get more of a grasp on whether you think that it's a lack of awareness of the law that's behind this, whether it's something systematic in terms of culture, or whether there's a lack of sharing of information between managers. We've received a great deal of evidence where people have different experiences - excellent experiences from some managers or poor experiences with other managers. What do you think is at the root of this problem?

Credaf y bydd y gwaith a gyflwynwn fel Llywodraeth yn darparu ffyniant i bawb - ffyniant i'r Cymoedd, ffyniant i bob cymuned ar draws y Cymoedd. Dirprwy Lywydd, rydym yn deall bod Cymoedd de Cymru angen, ac yn wir yn haeddu bod yn ganolog i ffocws y Llywodraeth. O dan y Llywodraeth hon, fe fyddant.

It's my belief that the work that we are bringing forward as a Government will deliver prosperity for all - prosperity for the Valleys, prosperity for all communities across the Valleys. Deputy Presiding Officer, we understand that the Valleys of south Wales need, require, and, indeed, deserve, to be at the heart of the focus of Government. Under this Government, they will be.
Thank you for that, Minister. For my second and final question, I'd like to turn to deforestation and supply chains. At COP26, you said that you were determined to change the Welsh Government procurement policy to ensure that we're promoting supply chains that are fair, that are ethical and that are sustainable. I welcome that. That would not only reduce Wales's global footprint, it would also support local economies. We have an opportunity to become a leader in this place, following, or rather joining, pioneers like France and the state of California, which have introduced procurement policies to end deforestation and tackle climate change. Minister, there is evidence as well that the public are supportive of these actions. A recent WWF Cymru survey of rural Welsh communities found that 84 per cent of respondents agreed that public services that provide and sell food, like schools and hospitals, should not buy food from sources where it can contribute to nature loss and climate change both in Wales and overseas. So, could you tell us, Minister, what progress has been made to introduce deforestation-free targets, risk assessments and due diligence processes in public sector procurement practices, please?

Diolch, Weinidog. Ar gyfer fy ail gwestiwn a'r cwestiwn olaf gennyf fi, hoffwn droi at ddatgoedwigo a chadwyni cyflenwi. Yn COP26, fe ddywedoch eich bod yn benderfynol o newid polisi caffael Llywodraeth Cymru i sicrhau ein bod yn hyrwyddo cadwyni cyflenwi sy'n deg, yn foesegol ac yn gynaliadwy. Rwy'n croesawu hynny. Nid yn unig y byddai hynny'n lleihau ôl troed byd-eang Cymru, byddai hefyd yn cefnogi economïau lleol. Mae gennym gyfle i ddod yn arweinydd yn hyn o beth, gan ddilyn, neu'n hytrach, ymuno ag arloeswyr fel Ffrainc a thalaith Califfornia, sydd wedi cyflwyno polisïau caffael i roi terfyn ar ddatgoedwigo a mynd i'r afael â newid hinsawdd. Weinidog, ceir tystiolaeth hefyd fod y cyhoedd yn cefnogi'r camau hyn. Canfu arolwg diweddar gan WWF Cymru o gymunedau gwledig Cymru fod 84 y cant o'r ymatebwyr yn cytuno na ddylai gwasanaethau cyhoeddus sy'n darparu ac yn gwerthu bwyd, fel ysgolion ac ysbytai, brynu bwyd o ffynonellau a all gyfrannu at golledion i fyd natur a newid hinsawdd yng Nghymru a thramor. Felly, a wnewch chi ddweud wrthym, Weinidog, pa gynnydd a wnaed ar gyflwyno targedau dim datgoedwigo, asesiadau risg a phrosesau diwydrwydd dyladwy yn arferion caffael y sector cyhoeddus, os gwelwch yn dda?
Cyn imi symud ymlaen, a gaf fi dynnu eich sylw at y ffaith bod yna Aelodau Plaid Cymru ar-lein sy'n cymryd rhan yn y ddadl hon.

Before I move on, just to highlight the fact that there are Plaid Cymru Members online who are taking part in this debate.
Diolch i'r Aelod am ei chwestiwn. Rwy'n ymwybodol o'r - . Rwy'n ymwybodol o'r hyn y cyfeiriwch ato, ac rwy'n deall bod y cynnig wedi'i dynnu'n ôl bellach a bod negodiadau'n mynd rhagddynt gyda'r undebau llafur, a hoffwn annog y negodiadau hynny i barhau, yn enwedig gydag Unsain, i gynrychioli'r gweithlu yno. Yn amlwg, fel y nodir yn ein cod ymarfer ar gyflogaeth foesegol, byddem yn disgwyl cyrraedd lefel uwch, nid lefel is, yn y pethau hyn. Mae hynny'n rhywbeth y byddaf yn ei drafod yn fwy manwl, wrth gwrs, fel cadeirydd cyngor partneriaeth y gweithlu, gydag aelodau yno i sicrhau ein bod yn gwneud yn siŵr fod y cod cyflogaeth yn cael ei weithredu a'i orfodi ar draws llywodraeth leol wrth symud ymlaen.

I thank the Member for her question. I'm aware of this particular - . I'm aware of what you refer to, and my understanding is that the proposal has now been withdrawn and that negotiations are ongoing with the trade unions, and I would encourage those negotiations to continue, particularly with Unison, representing the workforce there. Clearly, as set out within our code of practice on ethical employment, we would expect to level up, not to level down, in these aspects. That is something that, clearly, as chair of the workforce partnership council, I will be discussing in further detail with members there to ensure that we make sure that code of employment is implemented and enforced right across local government, moving forward.
Dwi'n credu ei bod yn werth ysgrifennu yn lle jest gofyn am enghraifft fan hyn. Dyw hwn ddim yn arholiad neu brawf mewn unrhyw ffordd; mae'n ffordd o ddatblygu sut rydyn ni'n deall sut mae pethau'n gweithio. Felly, dwi ddim eisiau rhoi pobl ar y sbot fan hyn y bore yma, ond liciwn i ddeall sut mae'r strwythur ddeddfwriaethol yn actually creu cyd-destun gwahanol ar gyfer penderfyniadau, a dwi eisiau enghraifft hefyd o sut mae hynny wedi gweithio yn ymarferol, os yw hynny'n bosibl.

I think it is worth you writing to us. This isn't an exam or an oral examination of any kind, it's a way of developing our understanding of the situation, so I don't want to put people on the spot here this morning, but I would like to understand how the legislative infrastructure actually creates a different context for decisions, and I want an example of how that has worked on a practical basis, if that's possible.
Can you conclude, because I have many Members who want to speak?

A wnewch chi ddod i ben, oherwydd mae gennyf lawer o Aelodau sydd am siarad?
Cyfieithwch i'r Gymraeg:

Diolch yn fawr, Weinidog. I was disappointed in hearing your answer to my colleague Janet Finch-Saunders that you're yet to receive a response to your request to meet Michael Gove. I hope he will respond to you very soon. Minister, I read your article in Welsh Housing Quarterly, and in that you set out further action on building safety. I was pleased to see that some remediation work has happened with at least two developers. When do you expect the other developers - 11 in total - will commence the remediation work, and how many developers are yet to engage or have refused to sign up to the pact? Diolch yn fawr.

Diolch yn fawr, Weinidog. Cefais fy siomi wrth glywed eich ateb i fy nghyd-Aelod Janet Finch-Saunders eich bod eto i dderbyn ymateb i'ch cais i gyfarfod â Michael Gove. Gobeithio y bydd yn ymateb i chi yn fuan iawn. Weinidog, darllenais eich erthygl yn Welsh Housing Quarterly, ac yn honno rydych yn nodi camau pellach ar ddiogelwch adeiladau. Roeddwn yn falch o weld bod rhywfaint o waith cyweirio wedi digwydd gydag o leiaf ddau ddatblygwr. Pryd rydych chi'n disgwyl i'r datblygwyr eraill - 11 i gyd - ddechrau'r gwaith cyweirio, a faint o ddatblygwyr sydd eto i ymgysylltu neu wedi gwrthod ymrwymo i'r cytundeb? Diolch yn fawr.
Diolch am yr ateb yna, Dirprwy Weinidog. Un o'r materion a godwyd gyda mi gan aelodau o wahanol gymunedau ffydd, ond yn enwedig y gymuned Gristnogol, yw effaith y cyfyngiadau ar y gallu i addoli drwy gân yn ein heglwysi ar hyn o bryd, ar gyfer canu cynulleidfaol. Wn i ddim a ydych chi'n gyfarwydd a gwaith ymchwil diweddar, a gyhoeddwyd gan Brifysgol Bryste, y mae'n ymddangos ei fod yn awgrymu nad yw canu yn cynhyrchu llawer iawn mwy o ronynnau anadlol na siarad ar uchder tebyg. Felly, a wnewch chi edrych eto ar y cyfyngiadau coronafeirws presennol yng nghyswllt addoli mewn eglwysi, a gallu cynulleidfaoedd i ganu yn rhan o'u haddoliad, ac ystyried y darn hwnnw o waith ymchwil i gynorthwyo eich penderfyniad?

Thank you for that answer, Deputy Minister. One of the issues that has been raised with me by members of various faith communities, but particularly the Christian community, is the impact of the restrictions on the ability to worship through song in our churches at the moment, for congregational singing. I don't know whether you are familiar with recent research, which was published by the University of Bristol, which seems to suggest that singing doesn't produce substantially more respiratory particles than speaking at a similar volume. Therefore, will you look again at the current coronavirus restrictions in relation to worship in churches, and the ability of congregations to sing as part of their worship, and consider that piece of research in order to assist your decision?
Mae'n ymddangos bod siaradwyr Cymraeg yn colli hyder bod gwasanaethau Cymraeg ar gael. Roedd 91 y cant yn dweud eu bod nhw yn gallu delio â sefydliadau cyhoeddus yn Gymraeg os oedden nhw eisiau gwneud hynny yn 2016-17, ond mae'r ffigur i lawr i 74 y cant eleni. Pam?

It appears that Welsh speakers are losing confidence that Welsh language services would be available - 91 per cent stated that they were able to deal with public organisations in Welsh if they wished to do that in 2016-17, but that figure is down to 74 per cent this year. Why?

Diolch yn fawr iawn am hynny. Fe wnawn ni symud ymlaen at Carolyn Thomas. Gyda llaw, dwi'n edrych lawr lot achos dwi'n edrych ar y sgrin - dyna pam. Fe wnawn ni symud ymlaen at Carolyn Thomas.

Thank you very much for that. We'll move on to Carolyn Thomas. By the way, I am looking down a lot, because I'm looking at the screen - that's the reason why. We'll move on to Carolyn Thomas.
Presiding Officer, we have made tremendous progress over the past two years and will continue to build on that progress. I set out in my written statement in April the future support the Welsh Government will provide to the armed forces community.

Lywydd, rydym wedi gwneud cynnydd aruthrol dros y ddwy flynedd ddiwethaf a byddwn yn parhau i adeiladu ar y cynnydd hwnnw. Yn fy natganiad ysgrifenedig ym mis Ebrill, nodais y cymorth y bydd Llywodraeth Cymru yn ei ddarparu i gymuned y lluoedd arfog yn y dyfodol.
The next item is a motion under Standing Order 26.91 seeking the Senedd's agreement to introduce a Member Bill, the outdoor education (Wales) Bill. I call on Sam Rowlands to move the motion. Sam Rowlands.

Yr eitem nesaf, felly, yw'r cynnig o dan Reol Sefydlog 26.91 yn ceisio cytundeb y Senedd i gyflwyno Bil Aelod. Bil addysg awyr agored (Cymru) yw hwnnw. Dwi'n galw ar Sam Rowlands i wneud y cynnig. Sam Rowlands.
Since April 2018, land transaction tax has raised over £800 million. The funds raised have been used to fund our valued public services, including investment in social housing.

Ers mis Ebrill 2018, mae'r dreth trafodiadau tir wedi codi dros £800 miliwn. Defnyddiwyd yr arian a godwyd i ariannu ein gwasanaethau cyhoeddus gwerthfawr, gan gynnwys buddsoddiad mewn tai cymdeithasol.
Yes, certainly. I don't know whether it will be a strategy - they're talking about having fewer strategies these days, but there will be some kind of document, or some kind of plan, to go hand in hand with this Bill. As I said, we will need to do work at grass-roots level, outreach work with the heaviest and most dependent drinkers, but, of course, that will have to be co-ordinated on a national level, and that's the point that I would make consistently. As Richard has said, there is nobody beyond help; nobody beyond getting better.

Yn sicr. Wel, mae - . Nid ydw i'n siŵr os bydd e'n strategaeth - maen nhw'n sôn am gael llai o strategaethau dyddiau hyn, ond bydd yna ryw fath o ddogfen, rhyw gynllun, i gyd-fynd â'r Mesur yma. Fel y dywedais i, bydd angen gwaith ar lawr gwlad i estyn allan i'r yfwyr trymaf, y rhai sydd fwyaf dibynnol ar alcohol, ac, wrth gwrs, bydd eisiau i hynny gael ei gydlynu yn genedlaethol, a dyna'r pwynt y byddwn i yn ei wneud yn gyson. Fel mae Richard wedi'i ddweud, nid oes neb sydd y tu hwnt i gymorth; nid oes neb sydd y tu hwnt i wella.
Following the Member debate, which I proposed in Plenary on 14 February 2018, I was pleased to see the report from the unadopted roads taskforce. However, one element disappoints me, and that relates to the lack of legal weight behind some of the recommendations. In particular, the taskforce's road adoption model guide states that if five or more properties are served by a road in a new housing development, highways authorities should serve an advanced payment code notice on developers, which essentially ensures a financial bond is in place to meet any future costs of bringing the road up to adoptable standard, as you will be aware. However, guidance and recommendation, I would suggest, is not strong enough, in my opinion, in this case. Will you, therefore, commit to holding further discussions with the Minister for transport to explore whether legislation should be introduced in this area so as to place a duty on local authorities to serve a notice on developers in such circumstances?

Yn dilyn y ddadl gan Aelodau, a gynigiais yn y Cyfarfod Llawn ar 14 Chwefror 2018, roeddwn yn falch o weld yr adroddiad gan y tasglu ffyrdd sydd heb eu mabwysiadu. Fodd bynnag, mae un elfen yn fy siomi, ac mae hynny'n ymwneud â'r diffyg pwysau cyfreithiol y tu ôl i rai o'r argymhellion. Yn benodol, mae canllaw model mabwysiadu ffyrdd y tasglu yn nodi, os caiff pum eiddo neu fwy eu gwasanaethu gan ffordd mewn datblygiad tai newydd, y dylai awdurdodau priffyrdd gyflwyno hysbysiad cod talu uwch i ddatblygwyr, sydd yn ei hanfod yn sicrhau bod bond ariannol ar waith i dalu unrhyw gostau yn y dyfodol o godi'r ffordd i safon y gellir ei mabwysiadu, fel y gwyddoch chi. Fodd bynnag, nid yw canllawiau ac argymhelliad, byddwn yn awgrymu, yn ddigon cryf, yn fy marn i, yn yr achos hwn. A wnewch chi, felly, ymrwymo i gynnal trafodaethau pellach gyda'r Gweinidog trafnidiaeth i archwilio a ddylid cyflwyno deddfwriaeth yn y maes hwn er mwyn gosod dyletswydd ar awdurdodau lleol i gyflwyno hysbysiad i ddatblygwyr mewn amgylchiadau o'r fath?
Precisely, precisely. How confident are you that we are going to see this step change that is needed, given that, of course, there are some settings that are not even registered, therefore there is no way of monitoring what is happening to these children and young people as to whether there is that progress? We don't know, in some places or settings, whether there is this progression.

Yn union, yn union. Pa mor hyderus ydych chi ein bod ni'n mynd i weld y newid mawr yma sydd angen digwydd, o gofio, wrth gwrs, fod yna rhai lleoliadau ddim wedi cofrestru hyd yn oed, felly does yna ddim ffordd o fonitro beth sydd yn digwydd i'r plant a'r bobl ifanc? Dydyn ni ddim yn gwybod, yn rhai llefydd, os ydy'r cynnydd yma yn digwydd o gwbl.
Local authorities are responsible for ensuring access to independent information, advice and advocacy services for children and young people with special educational needs. Where legal advice is sought, children, young people and their families can seek out private legal representation and, in some circumstances, may also be eligible for legal aid.

Mae awdurdodau lleol yn gyfrifol am sicrhau mynediad at wasanaethau gwybodaeth, cyngor ac eiriolaeth annibynnol i blant a phobl ifanc ag anghenion addysgol arbennig. Os oes angen cyngor cyfreithiol, gall plant, pobl ifanc a'u teuluoedd ddod o hyd i gynrychiolaeth gyfreithiol breifat, ac mewn rhai amgylchiadau, gallant fod yn gymwys hefyd i gael cymorth cyfreithiol.
Thank you for your question. The Welsh Government took the important step to challenge the United Kingdom Internal Market Act 2020 because it purports to undermine the devolution settlement. The costs incurred by the Welsh Government for doing so are £132,283.67.

Diolch am eich cwestiwn. Cymerodd Llywodraeth Cymru y cam pwysig i herio Deddf Marchnad Fewnol y Deyrnas Unedig 2020 oherwydd ei bod yn bygwth tanseilio'r setliad datganoli. Y gost i Lywodraeth Cymru am wneud hynny yw £132,283.67.
Wel, ydyn, ond roeddwn i eisiau ei glywed e oddi wrthych chi'n benodol. Ond, ie, yn sicr, mae honna'n neges glir rydyn ni'n ei chlywed, a gobeithio y gallwn ni gyfleu hynny i'r Llywodraeth, dwi'n siŵr, wrth adrodd ar y gwaith yma. Iawn, diolch yn fawr iawn. Diolch, Delyth. Awn ni ymlaen felly at Jenny.

Well, yes, but I wanted to hear from you specifically. But that's a very clear message that we're hearing, and hopefully we can convey that to Government as we report on this work. Thank you very much. Thank you, Delyth. We'll move on to Jenny.
