Well, not all employment issues are down to how the Welsh Government chooses to spend the £16 billion that it gets. Research earlier this year by Wales Online shows that, between them, the three local authorities in my region spent almost £2.3 million paying staff who were suspended for a variety of reasons. Now, of course, I don't expect you to comment on individual cases, but do you think that there's more that Welsh Government could do, perhaps, in terms of guidance to help both councils and individuals deal with allocations and incidents? I'm very conscious of the work that we're doing here on respect and dignity, and I'm wondering whether councils are picking up on what we're doing and whether Welsh Government might be able to point them in this direction for good advice.

Wel, nid yw'r holl broblemau cyflogaeth yn dibynnu ar sut y mae Llywodraeth Cymru yn dewis gwario'r £16 biliwn a gaiff. Yn gynharach eleni dangosodd ymchwil gan Wales Online fod y tri awdurdod lleol yn fy rhanbarth wedi gwario bron £2.3 miliwn rhyngddynt yn talu staff a oedd wedi'u gwahardd dros dro am amrywiaeth o resymau. Nawr, wrth gwrs, nid wyf yn disgwyl ichi roi sylwadau ar achosion unigol, ond a ydych yn credu bod mwy y gallai Llywodraeth Cymru ei wneud, efallai, o ran canllawiau i helpu cynghorau ac unigolion i ymdrin â dyraniadau a digwyddiadau? Rwy'n ymwybodol iawn o'r gwaith a wnawn yma ar urddas a pharch, ac rwy'n meddwl tybed a yw cynghorau'n sylwi ar beth a wnawn ac a fyddai Llywodraeth Cymru yn gallu eu cyfeirio yma i gael cyngor da.

Thank you. It was certainly very concerning that, as you say, there were 43,000 false-negative COVID tests. I should say the UK Health Security Agency have confirmed that people from Wales who did have tests analysed at that private laboratory in England were all contacted between 15 and 17 October. This is an ongoing piece of work. We are working with the UK HSA to look at the reviews. We're working with Public Health Wales as well, and supporting the technical advisory group to asses the potential impact of those incidents on our case rates in epidemiology. The Minister will need to await the results of those investigations and reviews before coming forward with a statement.

Diolch. Yr oedd yn sicr yn bryderus iawn bod 43,000 o brofion COVID ffug-negatif, fel yr ydych chi'n ei ddweud. Dylwn i ddweud bod Asiantaeth Diogelwch Iechyd y DU wedi cadarnhau y cysylltwyd â phobl o Gymru a gafodd eu profion wedi eu dadansoddi yn y labordy preifat hwnnw yn Lloegr rhwng 15 a 17 Hydref. Mae hwn yn ddarn o waith sy'n parhau. Rydym ni'n gweithio gydag Awdurdod Iechyd a Diogelwch y DU i edrych ar yr adolygiadau. Rydym ni'n gweithio gydag Iechyd Cyhoeddus Cymru hefyd, ac yn cefnogi'r grŵp cynghori technegol i asesu effaith bosibl y digwyddiadau hynny ar ein cyfraddau achosion mewn epidemioleg. Bydd angen i'r Gweinidog aros am ganlyniadau'r ymchwiliadau a'r adolygiadau hynny cyn cyflwyno datganiad.

Yes, absolutely I do. The Act doesn't sit within my portfolio - it sits within Rebecca Evans's - but I'd be very happy to do some further work with Rebecca on that issue.

Ydw, yn bendant. Nid yw'r Ddeddf yn rhan o fy mhortffolio - mae'n rhan o un Rebecca Evans - ond byddwn yn fwy na pharod i wneud rhywfaint o waith pellach gyda Rebecca ar y mater hwnnw.

Thank you, Cabinet Secretary, for your answer. NASUWT have condemned the pupil funding gap, which currently stands at nearly £700 per pupil compared to maintained schools in England. Can I ask what you're doing to address the funding gap, which, according to the union, is having the effect of, and I quote here, 'the narrowing of the curriculum in some schools and the loss of talented teachers and support staff to redundancy'?

Diolch am eich ateb, Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet. Mae Cymdeithas Genedlaethol yr Ysgolfeistri ac Undeb yr Athrawesau wedi condemnio'r bwlch cyllido disgyblion, sydd bellach bron yn £700 y disgybl o gymharu ag ysgolion a gynhelir yn Lloegr. A gaf fi ofyn beth rydych yn ei wneud i fynd i'r afael â'r bwlch cyllido, sydd, yn ôl yr Undeb, a dyfynnaf, yn culhau'r cwricwlwm mewn rhai ysgolion ac yn arwain at ddiswyddo athrawon a staff cymorth talentog?
