So, on the first issue, which is the attendance at secondary schools in Blaenau Gwent, I'd invite you to write to the Minister for Education outlining your views and concerns there. And, of course, the next item of business this afternoon is the statement by the education Minister on the PISA results, and I know that she's keen to discuss all of these issues with Members this afternoon.

Felly, o ran y mater cyntaf, sef presenoldeb mewn ysgolion uwchradd ym Mlaenau Gwent, byddwn i'n eich gwahodd i ysgrifennu at y Gweinidog Addysg yn amlinellu eich safbwyntiau a'ch pryderon yno. Ac, wrth gwrs, yr eitem nesaf o fusnes y prynhawn yma yw'r datganiad gan y Gweinidog Addysg ar ganlyniadau PISA, a gwn i ei bod yn awyddus i drafod yr holl faterion hyn gyda'r Aelodau y prynhawn yma.
Diolch, Llywydd. Yn ystod fy nghwestiwn, fy nghwestiwn atodol, i'r Prif Weinidog yn gynharach heddiw, ac wrth fyfyrio am y peth, rwy'n credu y byddai wedi bod yn briodol imi gyfeirio Aelodau at fy natganiad o fuddiant. Felly, hoffwn fanteisio ar y cyfle hwn i wneud hynny'n awr, a diolch yn fawr iawn i chi.

Diolch, Llywydd. During my question, my supplementary, to the First Minister earlier today, and on reflection, I think it would have been appropriate for me to refer Members to my declaration of interest. So, I would like to take this opportunity to do that now, and thank you very much.
Seven thousand jobs depend on this deal. Do you agree with that?

Mae saith mil o swyddi yn dibynnu ar y cytundeb hwn. A ydych chi'n cytuno â hynny?
Diolch am eich ymateb, Weinidog. Wrth gwrs, mae parhau i gael mynediad at driniaethau a gwasanaethau cyn gynted â phosibl yn flaenoriaeth hollbwysig i bobl sy'n byw yn Sir Benfro. Mae Coleg Brenhinol y Llawfeddygon wedi ailadrodd yr alwad honno, gan ddweud bod cleifion sydd wir angen eu llawdriniaethau yn ganolog i hyn i gyd. Mae llawer ohonynt mewn poen difrifol, gyda'u cyflyrau'n dirywio wrth iddynt aros, ac felly mae'n hanfodol bwysig fod Llywodraeth Cymru yn cyhoeddi ei hamseroedd aros rhwng atgyfeirio a thriniaeth. Weinidog, a ydych yn cytuno â Choleg Brenhinol y Llawfeddygon, ac os felly, pryd y bydd Llywodraeth Cymru yn dechrau cyhoeddi'r amseroedd rhwng atgyfeirio a thriniaeth diweddaraf, fel y gall byrddau iechyd, fel Bwrdd Iechyd Prifysgol Hywel Dda, ddefnyddio'r wybodaeth honno i gynllunio yn unol â hynny?

Thank you for that response, Minister. Of course, it's an immediate priority for people living in Pembrokeshire to continue having access to treatments and services as quickly as possible. The Royal College of Surgeons has echoed that call, saying that at the centre of all this are patients who really need their operations. Many are in serious pain, with their conditions deteriorating while they wait, and so it's vitally important that the Welsh Government publishes its referral-to-treatment waiting times. Minister, do you agree with the Royal College of Surgeons, and, if so, when will the Welsh Government start publishing up-to-date referral-to-treatment times, so that health boards, like the Hywel Dda University Health Board, can use that information to plan accordingly?
Diolch, Weinidog. Rwyf am ailadrodd: mewn cyferbyniad, yn Lloegr, cafwyd cynnydd amlwg mewn Ffrangeg a Sbaeneg o 2019-20, ac ers dechrau cadw cofnodion, mae Sbaeneg wedi cynyddu i 100,000 a mwy. Mae'n hollol wahanol i'n niferoedd ni, sy'n gostwng. Hefyd, rydym wedi gweld niferoedd athrawon ieithoedd tramor modern mewn Almaeneg a Ffrangeg yn gostwng 14 y cant a 15 y cant yn y drefn honno dros y pum, chwe blynedd diwethaf. Ai un o'r rhesymau pam fod y rhaglen Dyfodol Byd-eang yn methu yw prinder athrawon, ac, os felly, pa gamau yr ydych yn eu cymryd i unioni hynny, os gwelwch yn dda, yn benodol, fel y dywedoch chi, am fod y cwricwlwm newydd yn rhoi cynifer o gyfleoedd i ni, fel y mae newid y diwrnod ysgol o bosibl? Felly, mae angen inni gael yr athrawon hyn ar waith fel y gall pobl fanteisio ar y cyfleoedd hynny ym maes ieithoedd modern os dymunant, wrth symud ymlaen. Diolch.

Thank you, Minister. I'll just repeat: by contrast, in England, there were noticeable increases in French and Spanish from 2019-20, and that, since records began, Spanish has increased to 100,000 plus. It's completely different to our numbers, which are declining. Also, we have seen the modern foreign language teachers numbers in German and French decline by 14 per cent and 15 per cent respectively over the last five, six years. Is one of the causes of the Global Futures programme failing the lack of teachers coming forward, and, if so, what steps are you doing to rectify that, please, particularly, as you said, because the new curriculum presents us with so many opportunities, as does, potentially, changing the school day? So, we need to have these teachers in place so people are able to have those modern language opportunities if they desire, going forward. Thank you.
Well, Llywydd, thank you to Llyr Gruffydd for that supplementary question. It's true what he said. Some figures show that over 3 million households additionally have bought pets during the pandemic than was previously the case. So, something major has happened in this area, and, with regard to the cost-of-living crisis and costs, a lot of families are facing pressures in that regard. I know that the Minister and the chief veterinary officer are working very closely with the third sector. They do excellent work; of course, the Government's stance is to support people in that sector and to assist them. I don't know if we can do that financially, but we do do it in other ways, to support them in the important work that they do.

Wel, Llywydd, diolch i Llyr Gruffydd am y cwestiwn ychwanegol yna. Mae'n wir beth ddywedodd e. Mae rhai ffigurau yn dangos bod mwy na 3 miliwn o aelwydydd yn fwy wedi prynu anifeiliaid yn ystod y pandemig nag oedd yna erioed. So, mae rhywbeth mawr wedi digwydd yna, a nawr, gyda phroblemau costau byw, siŵr o fod, mae lot o deuluoedd yn wynebu problemau. Dwi'n gwybod bod y Gweinidog a'r prif swyddog yn y maes yn gweithio'n agos gyda'r trydydd sector. Maen nhw'n gwneud gwaith arbennig o dda; wrth gwrs, safbwynt y Llywodraeth yw i gefnogi pobl yn y sector yna a'u helpu nhw. Dwi ddim yn siŵr os rŷn ni'n gallu ei wneud e'n ariannol ond rŷm ni yn ei wneud e mewn ffyrdd eraill i'w cefnogi nhw yn y gwaith pwysig maen nhw'n ei wneud.
Weinidog, mae mwy o waith datblygu polisi yn cydnabod na allwn weithio mewn seilos ac y bydd gan lawer o bobl gydafiacheddau a fydd yn galw am wybodaeth a sgiliau pob gweithiwr proffesiynol perthynol i iechyd. Pa drafodaethau a gawsoch gyda chyrff proffesiynol sy'n cynrychioli gweithwyr proffesiynol perthynol i iechyd er mwyn pennu bod y gofynion hyfforddi ar gyfer y cyrff hyn yn adlewyrchu nid yn unig anghenion ein poblogaeth ar hyn o bryd, ond yn y dyfodol hefyd?

Minister, more policy development is recognising that we cannot work in silos and that many people will have co-morbidities, which will exercise the knowledge and skills of all allied healthcare professionals. What discussions have you had with professional bodies representing allied healthcare professionals, in order to determine that the training requirements for these bodies reflect not only the current but also the future needs of our population?
I'ch helpu ar y pwynt hwn, ysgrifennodd y Pwyllgor Cyfrifon Cyhoeddus at yr Ysgrifennydd Parhaol ar yr union bwynt hwn yn ddiweddar, yn gofyn am onestrwydd deallusol gan y Llywodraeth - pan fyddant o ddifrif yn anghytuno â'r pwynt, y dylent ddweud hynny a rhoi'r rhesymau pam. Ac rydym wedi cael llythyr yn ôl yr wythnos hon gan yr Ysgrifennydd Parhaol i ddweud y bydd y Llywodraeth yn gwneud hynny, felly mae angen inni gadw llygad ar hynny.

Just to help you on this point, the Public Accounts Committee has recently written to the Permanent Secretary on this very point, asking for an intellectual honesty from the Government - when they genuinely don't agree with the point, to say so and give the reasons why. And we've had a letter back this week from the Permanent Secretary saying that the Government will do that, so we need to keep an eye on that.
Cyfieithwch i'r Gymraeg:

Just to agree with what the Welsh Government has said, namely that the Assembly's consent is required in terms of the areas that are within the Assembly's remit.

Dim ond i gytuno â beth mae Llywodraeth Cymru yn ei ddweud, bod angen cydsyniad y Cynulliad o ran y darnau o hwn sydd o fewn cymhwysedd y Cynulliad.
A wnaiff y Cwnsler Cyffredinol ildio ar y pwynt yna?

Would the Counsel General give way on that point?

Unwaith eto, cyfeiriaf at y ffaith bod £10 miliwn yn cael ei neilltuo mewn arian newydd ar gyfer cynllun trosiannol i helpu busnesau sy'n wynebu'r anawsterau hyn.

Again, I make mention of the fact that £10 million is being set aside in new money for a transitional scheme to help businesses that do face these difficulties.

Rwy'n gwerthfawrogi'r gwaith hanfodol a phwysig y mae'r trydydd sector yn ei wneud yn ein cymunedau. Ein blaenoriaethau yw sicrhau bod gennym drydydd sector ffyniannus gyda seilwaith cryf i gefnogi eu gwaith, tyfu'r sylfaen o wirfoddolwyr a sicrhau bod gan y trydydd sector lais yn y gwaith o helpu a siapio cymunedau.

I appreciate the vital, important work the third sector is doing in our communities. Our priorities are ensuring we have a thriving third sector with a strong infrastructure to support their work, growing the volunteer base and ensuring the third sector has a voice in helping and shaping communities.

Arweinydd y tŷ, rydych yn dweud bod cyfradd y rhai sy'n manteisio ar fand eang cyflym iawn wedi parhau i fod yn is o lawer nag argaeledd band eang cyflym iawn mewn gwirionedd. Felly, a gaf fi ofyn beth rydych chi fel Llywodraeth yn ei wneud i sicrhau bod pobl yn ymwybodol o argaeledd band eang cyflym iawn yn eu hardal?

Leader of the house, you say that the take-up rate for superfast broadband has remained much lower than the actual availability of superfast broadband. So, could I ask what you as a Government are doing to ensure that people are aware of the availability of superfast broadband in their area?

Byddaf yn gwneud yn union fel y mae'r Aelod wedi gofyn. Wrth gwrs, mae cryn dipyn o amser tan 2022, ac rwy'n cydnabod yr angen i ddarparu gwell gwasanaethau pryd bynnag a ble bynnag y bo modd yn y tymor byrrach, felly byddaf yn ymdrechu i wneud hynny i etholwyr fy nghyfaill a fy nghyd-Aelod.

I will do exactly as the Member has requested. Of course, 2022 is some way off, and I recognise the need to provide improved services whenever and wherever possible in the shorter term, so I will endeavour to do just that for my friend and colleague's constituents.
Item 16 is the Equality Act 2010 (Public Authorities subject to the Public Sector Equality Duty) (Wales) Order 2021. I call for a vote on the motion, tabled in the name of Rebecca Evans.

Eitem 16 yw'r Gorchymyn Deddf Cydraddoldeb 2010 (Awdurdodau Cyhoeddus sy'n ddarostyngedig i Ddyletswydd Cydraddoldeb y Sector Cyhoeddus) (Cymru) 2021. Dwi'n galw am bleidlais ar y cynnig a gyflwynwyd yn enw Rebecca Evans.
Cyfieithwch i'r Gymraeg:

Yes. Presently, Transport for Wales's remit covers the implementation of the next rail service and the south Wales metro. TfW are establishing a plan to review the scope of services at key milestones throughout the contract. Where elements satisfy economic and deliverability tests, they will be delivered by Transport for Wales.

Gwnaf. Ar hyn o bryd, mae cylch gwaith Trafnidiaeth Cymru yn cynnwys y gwaith o roi'r gwasanaeth rheilffyrdd nesaf a metro de Cymru ar waith. Mae Trafnidiaeth Cymru yn sefydlu cynllun i adolygu cwmpas y gwasanaethau ar gerrig milltir allweddol drwy gydol y contract. Lle bydd elfennau'n bodloni profion economaidd a phrofion cyflawnadwyedd, cânt eu rhoi ar waith gan Trafnidiaeth Cymru.
The next item, therefore, is the topical questions. The first question is to be asked to the Minister for Culture, Tourism and Sport, and the question is from Dai Lloyd.

Yr eitem nesaf, felly, yw'r cwestiynau amserol. Mae'r cwestiwn cyntaf i'w ofyn i'r Gweinidog Diwylliant, Twristiaeth a Chwaraeon, ac mae'r cwestiwn gan Dai Lloyd.

It's all right, but we've got a number of questions which we intend to get through. So, Mark Isherwood.

Popeth yn iawn, ond mae gennym nifer o gwestiynau yr ydym ni'n bwriadu mynd trwyddyn nhw. Felly, Mark Isherwood.

First Minister, to improve academic outcomes, of course, children and young people have to be somewhere that they can learn, and if they're being off-rolled to boost a school's apparent academic record, then they're not necessarily learning. I know that your Minister is completely against the practice of off-rolling, obviously, but what immediate action is the Government taking to both look into allegations with particular schools, and to crack down on any schools that are gaming the system?

Prif Weinidog, i wella deilliannau academaidd, wrth gwrs, mae'n rhaid i blant a phobl ifanc fod yn rhywle lle y gallan nhw ddysgu, ac os ydyn nhw'n cael eu tynnu oddi ar y gofrestr i hybu cofnod academaidd ymddangosiadol ysgol, yna nid ydyn nhw o reidrwydd yn dysgu. Gwn fod eich Gweinidog yn gwrthwynebu'n llwyr yr arfer o dynnu disgyblion oddi ar y gofrestr, yn amlwg, ond pa gamau uniongyrchol y mae'r Llywodraeth yn eu cymryd i ymchwilio i gyhuddiadau gydag ysgolion penodol, ac i gosbi unrhyw ysgolion sy'n twyllo'r system?

The independent review panel for affordable housing supply published their report on 1 May. I'm actually attending the Welsh Local Government Association's housing cabinet meeting tomorrow, where the panel's report will be the first topic for discussion. I'm engaging across the housing sector as I consider my response to the recommendations.

Cyhoeddodd y panel adolygu annibynnol ar y cyflenwad tai fforddiadwy eu hadroddiad ar 1 Mai. Mewn gwirionedd, byddaf yn mynychu cyfarfod cabinet tai Cymdeithas Llywodraeth Leol Cymru yfory, lle bydd adroddiad y panel yn bwnc trafod cyntaf. Rwy'n ymgysylltu ar draws y sector tai wrth imi ystyried fy ymateb i'r argymhellion.

Diolch, Llywydd. First Minister, in June last year you said that Labour had no chance of winning a general election. Why have you abandoned ship?

Diolch, Llywydd. Prif Weinidog, ym mis Mehefin y llynedd dywedasoch nad oedd gan Lafur unrhyw obaith o ennill etholiad cyffredinol. Pam ydych chi wedi neidio oddi ar y llong?
Diolch, Gadeirydd, a phrynhawn da, Weinidog. Yn nhermau Cymru o fewn y Deyrnas Unedig, yn y lle cyntaf, mae yna wahanol adrannau i'r cwestiynu y prynhawn yma, ond y sesiwn yma fydd ar Gymru yn y Deyrnas Unedig. Rydyn ni'n dal yn y fan honno. A allaf i ofyn ichi, beth ydych chi'n feddwl ynghylch yr effaith y mae Brexit wedi'i gael ar gyfansoddiad y Deyrnas Unedig, ac ar ddatganoli yng Nghymru yn benodol?

Thank you, Chair, and good afternoon, Minister. With regard to Wales in the UK, obviously, there are different sections to our questioning this afternoon, but this first section will focus on Wales in the UK. We are still there, of course. Could I ask you what impact Brexit has had on the UK constitution, and on devolution in Wales in particular?
Wel, 'glasganmol' fyddwn i'n galw hynna. Dychwelaf y cyfarchion iddo yntau. Edrychaf ymlaen at gwestiynau mwy perthnasol ganddo yn y dyfodol. Serch hynny, ni fydd ef a minnau yn cytuno pan ddaw i'r newid yn yr hinsawdd. O ran allyriadau carbon, rwyf i o'r farn bod y rhan helaethaf o lawer o wyddoniaeth yn dangos bod y newid yn yr hinsawdd yn digwydd a bod bodau dynol yn cael effaith ar y newid yn yr hinsawdd, ac mae'n rhaid i ni yng Nghymru chwarae ein rhan, yn union fel unrhyw wlad arall.

Well, 'damned by faint praise' I'd call that. I return the compliment to him. I look forward to more relevant questions from him in the future. Nevertheless, he and I will not agree when it comes to climate change. In terms of carbon emissions, I take the view that the vast bulk of science shows us that climate change is happening and that human beings have an effect on climate change, and we in Wales must play our part, just like any other country.

Wel, rwy'n dal i fod yn bryderus iawn am ddiffygion sylfaenol credyd cynhwysol. Rwy'n siomedig bod Llywodraeth y DU yn mynnu ei gyflwyno. Mae canfyddiadau'r Swyddfa Archwilio Genedlaethol ar gredyd cynhwysol yn tynnu sylw at lawer o broblemau yr ydym ninnau hefyd wedi eu codi dro ar ôl tro gyda Llywodraeth y DU.

Well, I remain deeply concerned about the fundamental flaws of universal credit. I'm disappointed that the UK Government is persisting with its roll-out. The National Audit Office's findings on universal credit highlight many issues that we have also repeatedly raised with the UK Government.

Diolch, Rhys ab Owen. Cafodd ein 'Cynllun Gweithredu Cymru Wrth-hiliol' ei lansio ym mis Mehefin. Rwyf wedi gofyn i'r cyhoedd a'r trydydd sector yng Nghymru weithio gyda ni i gyflawni'r cynllun ac rydym wedi sefydlu uned gwahaniaethau ar sail hil fel un o'n camau gweithredu cyntaf.

Diolch, Rhys ab Owen. Our 'Anti-racist Wales Action Plan' was launched in June. I've asked the Welsh public and third sectors to work with us in delivering the plan and we've established a race disparity unit as one of our first actions.

Symudwn ymlaen at yr eitem nesaf, sef dadl gan Blaid Annibyniaeth y Deyrnas Unedig ar ganser yr ysgyfaint, a galwaf ar Caroline Jones i gynnig y cynnig. Caroline Jones.

We'll move on to the next item, which is a debate by the United Kingdom Independence Party on lung cancer, and I call on Caroline Jones to move the motion. Caroline Jones.
Iawn, dŷn ni wedi mynd yn gyhoeddus. Croeso nôl i'r pwyllgor. Eitem 3: Minnau hefyd! - ymchwiliad i rôl y celfyddydau a diwylliant wrth fynd i'r afael â thlodi ac allgáu cymdeithasol. Dŷn ni'n ffocysu ar y sector treftadaeth nawr y bore yma. Tystion sydd gyda ni heddiw: Christopher Catling - neu Caitling? Catling.

Right, we're now public. Welcome back to the committee. Item 3: Count me in! - inquiry into the role of arts and culture in addressing poverty and social exclusion. We're focusing on the heritage sector now this morning. The witnesses that we have this morning are Chistopher Catling - or Caitling? Catling.

Galwaf ar aelod o'r Pwyllgor Deddfwriaeth, Cyfiawnder a'r Cyfansoddiad, Alun Davies.

I call on a member of the Legislation, Justice and Constitution Committee, Alun Davies.

Efallai fod yr Aelodau'n ymwybodol fod yna gaplan yn arfer gwasanaethu Bae Caerdydd, yn fwyaf diweddar y Parchedig Peter Noble. Fodd bynnag, daeth hynny i ben yn ystod haf 2017, a chawsom wybod nad oes gan y grŵp o eglwysi ar gyfer y lle hwn unrhyw fwriad neu arian i lenwi'r rôl. Os yw aelodau'r grŵp trawsbleidiol ar ffydd yn dymuno trefnu cymorth caplaniaeth drostynt eu hunain heb unrhyw gost i'r Comisiwn, gellid gwneud trefniadau iddynt ddefnyddio ystafell ar ystâd y Cynulliad at y diben hwnnw. Caniateir hyn o dan y rheolau ar gyfer grwpiau trawsbleidiol.

Members might be aware that, historically, there has been a Cardiff Bay chaplain, most recently Reverend Peter Noble. However, it came to an end in the summer of 2017, and we're informed that the group of churches involved here have no intention of or funding to replace the role. Should members of the cross-party group on faith wish to arrange chaplaincy support themselves at no cost whatsoever to the Commission, arrangements could be made for them to make use of a room within the Assembly estate for that purpose. This is permissible under the rules for the cross-party groups.

Fel y dywedodd y Prif Weinidog, mae eitemau 4, 5 a 6 wedi eu - . Wel, mae 4 a 5 wedi eu trosglwyddo ar gyfer atebion ysgrifenedig, ac eitem 6 - nid oes unrhyw gwestiynau amserol.

As the First Minister's indicated, items 4, 5 and 6 have been - . Well, 4 and 5 have been transferred for written answers, and item 6 - there are no topical questions.
Diolch yn fawr iawn, Paul Davies, am y cwestiwn yna. Ac mae'n eithaf clir o ran yr ymateb i gyfraniad y sector gwirfoddol y bu hynny'n hanfodol i'n hymdrechion i ymladd y pandemig, cydgysylltu cefnogaeth leol, helpu i gefnogi ein gwirfoddolwyr ymroddedig a thosturiol. Mewn gwirionedd, rwy'n siŵr y byddai Paul Davies yn ymuno â mi i ddweud 'diolch o waelod calon' i'n holl wirfoddolwyr a sefydliadau'r sector gwirfoddol.

Thank you very much, Paul Davies, for that question. And it is quite clear in terms of the response to the voluntary sector contribution that it has been crucial to our efforts in fighting the pandemic, co-ordinating local support, helping to support our dedicated, compassionate volunteers. In fact, I'm sure Paul Davies would join me in saying a huge 'thank you' to all our volunteers and voluntary sector organisations.

Wel, credaf fod adroddiad y Ffederasiwn Busnesau Bach yn hynod ddefnyddiol a byddwn yn ei ystyried yn ofalus iawn. O ran rhaglenni uchelgeisiol ar gyfer seilwaith, buaswn yn dweud bod y fasnachfraint reilffyrdd gwerth £5 biliwn, metro trawsnewidiol de Cymru, metro gogledd Cymru, sy'n gwneud cryn dipyn o gynnydd, datblygu metro de-orllewin Cymru hefyd, i gyd yn dangos bod gan Lywodraeth Cymru uchelgais enfawr ar gyfer trafnidiaeth gyhoeddus a'r seilwaith sydd ei angen yn sail i hynny.

Well, the FSB report, I think, was incredibly helpful and we'll be considering it very carefully. I would say, in terms of ambitious programmes for infrastructure, the £5 billion rail franchise, the transformational south Wales metro, the north Wales metro, which is making great strides, the development of a south-west Wales metro as well, all demonstrate that this Welsh Government has huge ambition for public transport and the infrastructure that's required to underpin it.

Ai hwn yw'ch cwestiwn mewn gwirionedd?

Is this really your question?

Symudwn ymlaen at yr eitem nesaf, sef y ddadl ar yr adolygiad seneddol o iechyd a gofal cymdeithasol, yr adroddiad interim. Galwaf ar Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet dros Iechyd, Lles a Chwaraeon i gynnig y cynnig. Vaughan Gething.

We move on to the next item, which is the debate on the parliamentary review of health and social care, the interim report. I call on the Cabinet Secretary for Health, Well-being and Sport to move the motion. Vaughan Gething.

A gaf i groesawu'r Aelod i'w swydd fel arweinydd yr wrthblaid? Mae wedi gofyn cwestiynau i mi o'r blaen, wrth gwrs, ac mae yn ei swydd yn swyddogol erbyn hyn. Rwy'n siŵr y byddwn yn ymaflyd yn y Siambr hon dros y misoedd nesaf. Yr ateb i'w gwestiwn yw: nid wyf i wedi rhoi feto ar unrhyw beth.

Can I welcome the Member to his position as leader of the opposition? He's asked me questions before, of course, and now he is officially in place. No doubt we will tussle in this Chamber over the next few months. The answer to his question is: I haven't vetoed anything.
Wel, rydym yn cyflwyno amrywiaeth o welliannau i wasanaethau ym Mhont-y-clun, gan gynnwys lleihau amseroedd teithio, trenau pedwar cerbyd newydd a chynyddu amlder gwasanaethau ar ddydd Sul. Rydym yn parhau i weithio gyda Trafnidiaeth Cymru i ystyried ymestyn y metro, gan gynnwys i Bont-y-clun - yn amodol, wrth gwrs, ar gyllid ac achos busnes cryf.

Well, we are introducing a range of improvements to services at Pontyclun, including a reduction in journey times, new four-car trains and an increase in Sunday service frequency. We continue to work with Transport for Wales to consider extending the metro, including to Pontyclun - subject, of course, to funding and a strong business case.
Rwy'n siŵr eich bod yr un mor bryderus â mi, Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet, ynglŷn â'r dystiolaeth wyddonol gynyddol sy'n dangos bod gronynnau diesel yn peri risg sylweddol iawn i iechyd y cyhoedd. Rydym wedi arfer sôn am beryglon ysmygu goddefol, er enghraifft, ond mae'n fwy na thebyg fod y gronynnau hyn yn creu perygl mwy difrifol i ystod eang o'r boblogaeth. Pa fesurau sy'n cael eu cynllunio i wella ansawdd aer o ganlyniad i'r dystiolaeth hon?

I'm sure you're as concerned as I am, Cabinet Secretary, about the growing scientific evidence that diesel particulates pose a very significant risk to public health. We're used to talking about the risk of passive smoking, for instance, but these particulates probably carry a graver danger to a wide range of the population. What measures are planned to improve air quality in the light of this evidence?
