Diolch, Llywydd. I'd like to thank Eluned Morgan MS for her words here today. I'd also like to thank my fellow members of the Standards of Conduct Committee for their work on this matter and the clerking team for all of their hard work and professionalism in supporting our inquiry.

Diolch, Lywydd. Hoffwn ddiolch i Eluned Morgan AS am ei geiriau yma heddiw. Hoffwn ddiolch hefyd i fy nghyd-aelodau o'r Pwyllgor Safonau Ymddygiad am eu gwaith ar y mater hwn a'r tîm clercio am eu holl waith caled a'u proffesiynoldeb wrth gefnogi ein hymchwiliad.

On 1 December, I, alongside the First Minister, was at Veeqo's official office opening at Technium 2, following their being taken over by Amazon - a success story of bringing highly paid employment into Swansea. This happened at least in part due to the graduates being produced and the support of the local universities. What further support can the Welsh Government give to the university sector to develop more highly paid jobs in Swansea, and has the First Minister got any comment on Swansea University's warning about the impact of the UK Government's failure to secure participation in Horizon Europe? What impact is this having on Welsh universities being able to contribute to local economic development?

Ar 1 Rhagfyr, roeddwn i, ochr yn ochr â'r Prif Weinidog, yn agoriad swyddogol swyddfa Veeqo yn Technium 2, ar ôl i Amazon eu cymryd nhw drosodd - hanes o lwyddiant i ddod â swyddi cyflog uchel i Abertawe. Digwyddodd hyn yn rhannol o leiaf oherwydd y graddedigion sy'n cael eu cynhyrchu a chefnogaeth y prifysgolion lleol. Pa gymorth pellach all Llywodraeth Cymru ei roi i'r sector prifysgolion i ddatblygu rhagor o swyddi â chyflogau uchel yn Abertawe, ac a oes gan y Prif Weinidog unrhyw sylwadau ar rybudd Prifysgol Abertawe am effaith methiant Llywodraeth y DU i sicrhau cyfranogiad yn Horizon Ewrop? Pa effaith y mae hyn yn ei chael ar allu prifysgolion Cymru i gyfrannu at ddatblygiad economaidd lleol?

Can you give me an example of a sector asking to pay more tax?

A allwch roi enghraifft i mi o sector sy'n gofyn am gael talu mwy o dreth?

So, can I just come back on that? For example, the UK Government did reject the recommendation of the committee that was looking at this issue in Westminster to make it a requirement to have pre-sentencing reports - something that we know helps magistrates when they consider the impact of the sentence that they give women, to understand that impact better. That's the purpose of these reports, isn't it, to understand the circumstances of the particular woman in question, or, indeed, the young person or the person from an ethnic minority or a black background. But you rejected that that would be put on a mandatory footing. So, if you're aim, as you've mentioned, is to work on these blueprints and ensure that they are successful, doesn't that kind of decision undermine the blueprints?

Felly, allaf i jest ddod yn ôl ar hynny? Er enghraifft, fe wnaeth Llywodraeth y Deyrnas Gyfunol wrthod argymhelliad y pwyllgor a oedd yn edrych ar hyn yn San Steffan, er mwyn ei wneud e'n ofynnol i gael adroddiadau cyn-dedfrydu - rhywbeth rŷn ni'n gwybod sy'n helpu ynadon i ystyried effaith y ddedfryd maen nhw'n traddodi ar fenywod, er enghraifft, er mwyn deall yn well. Dyna bwrpas yr adroddiadau yma, onid e, i ddeall yn well amgylchiadau'r fenyw yna, neu, wrth gwrs, y person ifanc neu'r person o leiafrif ethnig neu gefndir du. Ond fe wrthodoch chi fod hynny'n mynd i fod yn rhywbeth mandadol. A allaf i ofyn, os taw eich nod chi, fel rŷch chi wedi sôn, yw edrych a gweithio ar y glasbrintiau yma i sicrhau llwyddiant, onid yw rhywbeth fel hynny yn tanseilio nod y glasbrintiau?

Minister, the latest available figures for initial teacher education, ITE, qualifiers in Wales show that the numbers of students completing their course in Welsh universities or the Open University fell from 1,740 students in 2010-11 to 1,030 in 2019-20, a drop of some 41 per cent. With that decrease over the 10-year period, the pool of talent available to schools to recruit from has shrunk. Therefore, what's gone wrong, and what's being done to put it right?

Weinidog, mae'r ffigurau diweddaraf sydd ar gael ar gyfer y rhai sy'n cymhwyso ar gyfer addysg gychwynnol i athrawon, AGA, yng Nghymru yn dangos bod nifer y myfyrwyr sy'n cwblhau eu cwrs ym mhrifysgolion Cymru neu'r Brifysgol Agored wedi gostwng o 1,740 o fyfyrwyr yn 2010-11 i 1,030 yn 2019-20, gostyngiad o tua 41 y cant. Gyda'r gostyngiad hwnnw dros y cyfnod o 10 mlynedd, mae'r gronfa o dalent sydd ar gael i ysgolion recriwtio ohoni wedi crebachu. Felly, beth sydd wedi mynd o'i le, a beth sy'n cael ei wneud i'w unioni?
