Cabinet Secretary, you'll be supported if you bring forward legislation in this area from this Conservative anyway. [Interruption.] Well, I do recall in previous Assemblies that I was joined by a number of colleagues on these benches in saying it's time to move on and end this practice. I have to say that I don't completely agree with the wording of this question, because, clearly, children would be protected in current law from physical attack. We are talking about what previous generations called 'reasonable chastisement'. But I agree with Julie Morgan, it's all about supporting parents, and that's not only just education, but ensuring our public services are there, so that we have effective childcare, for instance, and other areas of support, so that parents don't feel under great pressure, which sometimes can lead to frustration and a lack of control. So, it's a whole package. But it is now high time that we passed a law in this area.

Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet, fe gewch gefnogaeth os byddwch yn cyflwyno deddfwriaeth yn y maes hwn, gan y Ceidwadwr hwn beth bynnag. [Torri ar draws.] Wel, rwy'n cofio fy mod i a nifer o gyd-Aelodau ar y meinciau hyn, mewn Cynulliadau blaenorol, wedi dweud ei bod yn bryd symud ymlaen a rhoi diwedd ar yr arfer hwn. Mae'n rhaid i mi ddweud nad wyf yn cytuno'n llwyr â geiriad y cwestiwn, oherwydd, yn amlwg, byddai plant yn cael eu diogelu rhag ymosodiad corfforol o dan y gyfraith bresennol. Rydym yn siarad am yr hyn roedd cenedlaethau blaenorol yn ei alw'n 'gosb resymol'. Ond rwy'n cytuno â Julie Morgan, mae'n ymwneud â chefnogi rhieni, ac nid addysg yn unig yw hynny, ond sicrhau bod ein gwasanaethau cyhoeddus yno, fel bod gennym sefydliadau gofal plant effeithiol, er enghraifft, a meysydd eraill o gymorth, fel nad yw rhieni'n teimlo o dan bwysau mawr, a all weithiau arwain at rwystredigaeth a diffyg rheolaeth. Felly, mae'n becyn cyfan. Ond mae'n hen bryd bellach i ni basio deddf yn y maes hwn.

So, are you saying, therefore, that it would be better to weave Welsh history into broader history, then - and I understand that, of course - but perhaps have a situation where a pupil would be able to gain further credits or marks as part of the assessment, if they were able to show that they did have an understanding of Welsh history and also of British, European and global history?

So, byddech chi'n dweud, felly, y byddai'n well i wau hanes Cymru i mewn i hanes ehangach - rwy'n deall hynny, wrth gwrs - ond efallai cael sefyllfa lle byddai disgybl yn cael mwy o gredyd neu fwy o farciau fel rhan o'r asesu o achos eu bod nhw'n gallu dangos bod yna ddealltwriaeth gyda nhw o hanes Cymru a hefyd hanes Prydain, Ewrop a hefyd y byd.

Of course, I share the Member's concern around this. The Member will be aware that the issue around policing is a non-devolved issue, but we are the only part of the country with an anti-slavery co-ordinator, which we introduced here in Wales. He works extremely hard and there's a conference coming up in the next week or two bringing partners together to tackle these issues. I do raise this with the police in regard to the great work that they do there, but this is a hidden crime and we urge people in all communities, if they're aware of this hidden slavery, to report it to the police.

Wrth gwrs rwy'n rhannu pryder yr Aelod ynglŷn â hyn. Bydd yr Aelod yn gwybod fod plismona'n fater sydd heb ei ddatganoli, ond ni yw'r unig ran o'r wlad sydd â chydgysylltydd atal caethwasiaeth a gyflwynasom yma yng Nghymru. Mae'n gweithio'n hynod o galed ac mae cynhadledd ar y gweill yn ystod yr wythnos neu ddwy nesaf i ddod â phartneriaid at ei gilydd i fynd i'r afael â'r problemau hyn. Rwy'n trafod hyn gyda'r heddlu mewn perthynas â'r gwaith gwych y maent yn ei wneud yn hyn o beth, ond mae hon yn drosedd gudd ac rydym yn annog pobl ym mhob cymuned, os ydynt yn ymwybodol o gaethwasiaeth gudd o'r fath, i roi gwybod i'r heddlu.
