English: Can I thank Alun Davies for the points he raises and the questions that he raised? If I may, I'll just recap some of the areas of spend that the Welsh Government has made since 2001 in terms of rail infrastructure. There's the Vale of Glamorgan line reopening, the Ebbw valley line reopening, and new stations under development or being constructed at the moment include Bow Street, Ebbw town and Pye Corner - some have been completed, of course. There are the Merthyr frequency enhancements that we've invested in, and, of course, ongoing investment in the development of improvements between Wrexham and Chester on the line in the north. And, course, we're investing very heavily in the transformation of the core Valleys lines. So, as Alun Davies has outlined, our investment in rail infrastructure cannot be doubted. What we need now is the delivery of the Burns recommendations, and, to achieve that, UK Government investment. Alun Davies is absolutely right that there must be affordable and attractive alternatives to the use of the private car, and in terms of making alternatives attractive, they have to be regular, they have to be rapid and they have to be reliable. And that's why the four trains per hour on the Ebbw line is such an important aim for the Welsh Government, and why we are so determined to ensure that four trains per hour are provided. I totally accept the point that the number of stops should be minimised in order to ensure that a service is rapid and that people are able to travel from A to B in less time than they would using their own vehicle, but, obviously, there is also the balance that needs to be struck with ensuring that people across an entire region have public transport that is accessible to them, and that we are able to maintain a strong farebox receipt in order to make those services sustainable. In terms of the Ebbw Vale enhancements that are required, obviously, to deliver four trains per hour, it will require quite considerable investment by Network Rail, but we are working towards ensuring that that can happen. Because people in some of the most disadvantaged and distant communities in Wales, as in the UK as a whole, have been poorly served by rail investment, outside of the south-east of England, for far too long. That needs to be addressed as part of the levelling up agenda across the UK, and particularly within Wales.
Welsh: A gaf i ddiolch i Alun Davies am ei sylwadau ac am y cwestiynau a holodd? Os caf i, fe roddaf grynodeb o rai o feysydd gwario Llywodraeth Cymru ers 2001 o ran seilwaith rheilffyrdd. Mae rheilffordd Bro Morgannwg yn ailagor, rheilffordd cwm Ebwy yn ailagor, ac mae gorsafoedd newydd yn cael eu datblygu neu eu hadeiladu ar hyn o bryd yn cynnwys Bow Street, tref Ebwy a Pye Corner - mae rhai wedi'u cwblhau, wrth gwrs. Rydym ni wedi buddsoddi mewn trenau amlach ym Merthyr, ac wrth gwrs, rydym ni wrthi yn buddsoddi yn natblygiad gwelliannau rhwng Wrecsam a Chaer ar y lein yn y gogledd. Ac, wrth gwrs, rydym ni yn buddsoddi'n helaeth iawn mewn trawsnewid rheilffyrdd craidd y Cymoedd. Felly, fel yr amlinellodd Alun Davies, ni ellir amau ein buddsoddiad mewn seilwaith rheilffyrdd. Yr hyn y mae arnom ni ei angen nawr yw cyflawni argymhellion Burns, ac, er mwyn cyflawni hynny, buddsoddiad Llywodraeth y DU. Mae Alun Davies yn llygad ei le bod yn rhaid cael dewisiadau amgen fforddiadwy a deniadol yn lle defnyddio'r car preifat, ac o ran gwneud dewisiadau amgen yn ddeniadol, rhaid iddyn nhw fod yn rheolaidd, rhaid iddyn nhw fod yn gyflym a rhaid iddyn nhw fod yn ddibynadwy. A dyna pam mae'r pedwar trên yr awr ar reilffordd Ebwy yn nod mor bwysig i Lywodraeth Cymru, a dyma pam yr ydym ni mor benderfynol o sicrhau y caiff pedwar trên yr awr eu darparu. Derbyniaf yn llwyr y sylw y dylid lleihau nifer yr arosfannau er mwyn sicrhau bod gwasanaeth yn gyflym ac y gall bobl deithio o A i B mewn llai o amser nag y bydden nhw wrth ddefnyddio eu cerbyd eu hunain, ond, yn amlwg, mae'r cydbwysedd hwnnw y mae angen ei gyflawni hefyd o ran sicrhau bod gan bobl ar draws rhanbarth cyfan drafnidiaeth gyhoeddus sy'n hygyrch iddyn nhw, a'n bod yn gallu derbyn digon o arian drwy werthu tocynnau er mwyn gwneud y gwasanaethau hynny'n gynaliadwy. O ran y gwelliannau yng Nglynebwy sy'n ofynnol, yn amlwg, i ddarparu pedwar trên yr awr, bydd angen buddsoddiad eithaf sylweddol gan Network Rail, ond rydym ni yn gweithio tuag at sicrhau y gall hynny ddigwydd. Oherwydd bod pobl yn rhai o'r cymunedau mwyaf difreintiedig a phellennig yng Nghymru, fel yn y DU gyfan, wedi cael eu gwasanaethu'n wael gan fuddsoddiad rheilffyrdd, y tu allan i dde-ddwyrain Lloegr, yn rhy hir o lawer. Mae angen mynd i'r afael â hynny fel rhan o'r agenda gydraddoldeb ledled y DU, ac yn enwedig yng Nghymru.
