Oh dear. [ Laughter.] Minister, let's just remind ourselves that, for the latest year, which takes us to September 2017, just gone, the figure is 6,830. That's a drop on the previous year, which was 6,900. But let me remind everyone here: your target is 8,700 - 8,700. You are nearly 2,000 below that, and it's 10 years since this Government achieved its target for new homes. It is simply not acceptable. You have, and the Government has had for several years, the Holmans report, one of the most authoritative reports ever produced on housing need, which said that this Government should consider adopting the alternative projection that Professor Holmans calculated, which was for 12,000 homes a year in Wales between now and 2030 - not 8,700, which you are pitifully missing as a target anyway, but 12,000. Don't you agree with me that it's high time the Welsh Government at least accepted the alternative projection so we can start to make some inroads into the housing crisis?

O'r mawredd. [ Chwerthin.] Weinidog, gadewch i ni atgoffa ein hunain, ar gyfer y flwyddyn ddiweddaraf, sef hyd at fis Medi 2017, sydd newydd fod, mai'r ffigur yw 6,830. Mae hwnnw'n ostyngiad ers y flwyddyn flaenorol, a oedd yn 6,900. Ond gadewch i mi atgoffa pawb yma: eich targed yw 8,700 - 8,700. Rydych bron â bod 2,000 yn is na hynny, ac mae 10 mlynedd wedi bod ers i'r Llywodraeth hon gyflawni ei tharged ar gyfer cartrefi newydd. Nid yw'n dderbyniol o gwbl. Mae gennych adroddiad Holmans, ac mae wedi gan y Llywodraeth ers nifer o flynyddoedd, sef un o'r adroddiadau mwyaf awdurdodol a gynhyrchwyd erioed ar yr angen am dai, a oedd yn dweud y dylai'r Llywodraeth hon ystyried mabwysiadu'r amcanestyniad amgen a gyfrifwyd gan yr Athro Holmans, sef 12,000 o gartrefi y flwyddyn yng Nghymru rhwng nawr a 2030 - nid 8,700, ac rydych yn methu'n llwyr â chyrraedd y nod hwnnw beth bynnag, ond 12,000. Onid ydych yn cytuno ei bod hi'n hen bryd i Lywodraeth Cymru dderbyn yr amcanestyniad amgen, o leiaf, fel y gallwn ddechrau gwneud cynnydd mewn perthynas â'r argyfwng tai?

You're welcome to return at any time.

Croeso i chi ddod nôl eto.

Thank you for that answer. For businesses to remain long term and sustainable, they need to build positive connections with each other. Welsh ICE, in my constituency, is a peer-to-peer innovation centre for enterprise, where a load of businesses are there to support each other. Indeed, today, the captain of innovation, the leader of Welsh ICE, had an article in the Western Mail entitled 'Everyone's talent needed to secure future of Wales'; that's Gareth Jones. Welsh ICE makes a net gross value added contribution to the economy of £13.8 million. Will the Cabinet Secretary congratulate Welsh ICE for the success that they've had, but also think about how can we foster these business connections, both in Caerphilly and, of course, further afield in the wider area, to develop social capital?

Diolch i chi am yr ateb hwnnw. Er mwyn i fusnesau barhau'n rhai hirdymor a chynaliadwy, mae angen iddynt adeiladu cysylltiadau cadarnhaol â'i gilydd. Mae Canolfan Arloesi Menter Cymru, yn fy etholaeth, yn ganolfan arloesi rhwng cymheiriaid ar gyfer menter, lle y ceir llwyth o fusnesau yno i gefnogi ei gilydd. Yn wir, heddiw, roedd gan gapten arloesi, ac arweinydd Canolfan Arloesi Menter Cymru, erthygl yn y Western Mail o dan y pennawd 'Everyone's talent needed to secure future of Wales'; Gareth Jones yw hwnnw. Mae Canolfan Arloesi Menter Cymru yn gwneud cyfraniad gwerth ychwanegol gros net i'r economi o £13.8 miliwn. A wnaiff Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet longyfarch Canolfan Arloesi Menter Cymru ar y llwyddiant y maent wedi'i gael, a meddwl hefyd sut y gallwn feithrin y cysylltiadau busnes hyn, yng Nghaerffili ac wrth gwrs, ymhellach i ffwrdd yn yr ardal ehangach, i ddatblygu cyfalaf cymdeithasol?

Can I thank also the Member for Alyn and Deeside for submitting this question, as well, because I too have a keen interest in Welsh language education in Alyn and Deeside? And as stated by the Member, it is important that we enable Welsh language education and encourage more people to speak and learn Welsh.

A gaf fi ddiolch i'r Aelod dros Alun a Glannau Dyfrdwy am gyflwyno'r cwestiwn hwn hefyd, oherwydd mae gennyf innau hefyd ddiddordeb brwd mewn addysg Gymraeg yn Alun a Glannau Dyfrdwy? Ac fel y dywedodd yr Aelod, mae'n bwysig ein bod yn galluogi addysg Gymraeg ac yn annog mwy o bobl i siarad a dysgu Cymraeg.
