Rwy'n dirwyn i ben. Rhaid inni ddod i delerau â'n treftadaeth ac felly rwy'n gobeithio y bydd y ddadl hon yn gyfle inni allu dechrau'r broses o gymhathu ein gorffennol mewn ffordd y gallwn ymfalchïo ynddi, ond heb guddio'r rhannau ohono y mae angen gwybod amdanynt ac na fyddem yn eu hystyried yn dderbyniol heddiw mwyach.

I'm just winding up. We have to come to terms with our heritage and so I hope that this debate will be an opportunity whereby we can start this process of assimilating our past in a way that we can be proud of, but without disguising those parts of it that need to be known about and that we would no longer find acceptable today.

Felly, os edrychwn yn ôl ar 2010, roeddwn yn dal i fod yn yr ysgol, dim ond cwrw oedd Corona, a chroesawodd pobl Caerfyrddin Debenhams i ganol eu tref yn Rhodfa'r Santes Catrin. Fodd bynnag, gwta 11 mlynedd yn ddiweddarach, ym mis Mai y llynedd, fe gaeodd, gan adael twll 6000 metr sgwâr yng nghanol y dref. Ond diolch byth, oherwydd gwerth £18.5 miliwn o fuddsoddiad - £15 miliwn gan Lywodraeth y DU - mae hen siop Debenhams yn cael ei hailddatblygu'n gampfa, yn gartref i rai o gasgliadau amgueddfeydd y sir, ac yn ganolfan groeso i dwristiaid i dref hynaf Cymru. Caiff y prosiect ei ddatblygu gan y bwrdd iechyd lleol a Phrifysgol Cymru y Drindod Dewi Sant. Fodd bynnag, fel y dywedodd Dr Edward Jones, darlithydd economeg ym Mhrifysgol Bangor, 'Mae'n mynd i fod yn stryd fawr wahanol iawn i'r hyn yr ydym wedi arfer ei weld.' Felly, gadewch inni beidio â bod ofn y newid hwn. Gan fod prosiectau fel hyb Caerfyrddin yn arwain at ddenu'r nifer angenrheidiol o ymwelwyr i ganol ein trefi, ac ar ein strydoedd mawr unwaith eto, gadewch inni ei groesawu a chofleidio'r newid a ddaw yn ei sgil. Diolch.

So, if we cast our minds back to 2010, I was still at school, Corona was just but a beer, and the people of Carmarthen welcomed Debenhams to their town centre at St Catherine's Walk. However, only 11 short years later, in May of last year, it shut, leaving a 6000 sq m hole in the town centre. But thankfully, due to £18.5 million-worth of investment - £15 million from the UK Government - the former Debenhams shop is being redeveloped into a gym, a home for some of the county's museum collections, and a welcome centre for tourists into Wales's oldest town. This project is being developed by the local health board and the University of Wales Trinity Saint David. However, as Dr Edward Jones said, an economics lecturer from Bangor University, 'It's going to be a very different high street to what we're used to.' So, let's not be afraid of this change. As projects such as the Carmarthen hub bring about necessary footfall into our town centres, into our high streets once again, let's welcome it and embrace the change it brings. Diolch.

Iawn, diolch. Rydyn ni wedi cael sawl tyst yn sôn am fanteision cael system genedlaethol i fonitro cynnydd, gan wrth gwrs ddeall bod yna amrywiadau, fel gwnaethoch chi sôn, a bod pob awdurdod yn dechrau o fan gwahanol ac mewn sefyllfa wahanol. Ond, roedden nhw'n sôn y byddai cael rhyw system genedlaethol yn fanteisiol, ac rydyn ni wedi cael awgrym gan awdurdodau lleol a Chymdeithas yr Iaith, er enghraifft, y byddai efallai rhoi'r rôl yna i Estyn yn fanteisiol. Allaf i gael eich barn chi ar hynny?

Okay, thank you. We've heard several witnesses talking about the advantages of having a national system to monitor progress, understanding of course that there will be variation, as you said, that every local authority is starting from a different position and is in a different situation. But, they said that having a national system would be advantageous, and we have had a response from local authorities and Cymdeithas yr Iaith, for example, that giving that role to Estyn could be advantageous. Could I have your view on that, please?

Gallaf. Rydym wedi cael y ddeiseb gan y Pwyllgor Deisebau, ac mae fy swyddogion wedi'i gweld, ac rydym wedi ymateb i Gadeirydd y Pwyllgor Deisebau, yn ôl y gofyn.

Yes. We've received the petition from the Petitions Committee, which my officials have viewed, and we have responded to the Chair of the Petitions Committee, as requested.
