English: I'm speaking today as chair of the Labour group, and in doing so I speak on behalf of all Labour Members, many of whom who've served with Oscar for the last 13 years. Many worked closely with him in a range of settings over that time. Oscar, as everyone has alluded to, was always jovial, and although he was a robust debater inside the Senedd Chamber, he was never a partisan figure outside of it. This is something that has really come through in the outpouring of tributes to Oscar today. He would stop to talk to everyone, be that Senedd staff, Members of all parties, support staff - everyone. He was someone who was genuinely interested in people and unfailingly courteous. We will all be feeling his loss and his friendly manner greatly. Oscar was always incredibly proud of his family, and I want to express my sympathy and that of the entire Labour group to his wife, Firdaus, and his daughter, Natasha. You meant so much to Oscar, and it was impossible to have a conversation with him without him mentioning both of you. He was a real family man, and you were the pride and joy of his life. Oscar was, as many tributes have said, much loved, but by you both most of all. For me, personally, it was a pleasure to have worked alongside Oscar on both the economy and the public accounts committees. Both were areas where he had a real interest, and he brought a formidable expertise to bear on the subjects that we covered. It was a fantastic experience to be on a committee visit in particular with Oscar, because, regardless of where you were going or the topic in question, Oscar just loved getting out and about and meeting people, and talking to them about the work that they were doing. And I think it's safe to say that he had a particular soft spot for Cardiff Airport and loved visiting there. But wherever we went, he would engage with everyone that he met, brimming with interest and enthusiasm as he posed questions about their roles and opinions to contribute to our work. Oscar was a real character, and I hope that I've managed to encapsulate something of that in my contribution today. He was a trailblazer, who stood as a symbol of a more diverse, more modern Wales - something to which previous speakers have alluded, but something which all of us need to work together to achieve. Oscar can be proud of all that he achieved, and he will be missed by us all.
Welsh: Rwy'n siarad heddiw yn rhinwedd fy swydd yn Gadeirydd y grŵp Llafur, ac wrth wneud hynny rwy'n siarad ar ran yr holl Aelodau Llafur, llawer ohonyn nhw wedi gwasanaethu gydag Oscar am y 13 blynedd diwethaf. Gweithiodd llawer yn agos gydag ef mewn amrywiaeth o leoliadau dros y cyfnod hwnnw. Fel y mae pawb wedi cyfeirio ato, roedd Oscar bob amser yn hwyliog, ac er ei fod yn ddadleuwr cadarn yn Siambr y Senedd, ni fu erioed yn ffigwr pleidiol y tu allan iddo. Mae hyn yn rhywbeth sydd wedi dod i'r amlwg mewn gwirionedd yn y ffrwd o deyrngedau i Oscar heddiw. Byddai'n aros i siarad â phawb, boed yn staff y Senedd, Aelodau o bob plaid, staff cymorth - pawb. Roedd yn rhywun a oedd â diddordeb gwirioneddol mewn pobl ac yn gwrtais yn ddi-feth. Byddwn i gyd yn teimlo ei golled a'i ffordd gyfeillgar yn fawr. Roedd Oscar bob amser yn hynod falch o'i deulu, ac rwyf eisiau mynegi fy nghydymdeimlad i a'r grŵp Llafur cyfan i'w wraig, Firdaus, a'i ferch, Natasha. Roeddech yn golygu cymaint i Oscar, ac roedd yn amhosib cael sgwrs ag ef heb iddo sôn am y ddwy ohonoch. Roedd yn ddyn teulu go iawn, a chi oedd cannwyll ei lygad. Fel y dywedwyd mewn llawer o deyrngedau, roedd llawer yn caru Oscar, ond neb y fwy na'r ddwy ohonoch chi. I mi, yn bersonol, roedd yn bleser imi fod wedi gweithio gydag Oscar ar bwyllgor yr economi a'r pwyllgor cyfrifon cyhoeddus ill dau. Roedd y ddau yn feysydd yr oedd ganddo ddiddordeb gwirioneddol ynddynt, a daeth ag arbenigedd aruthrol i'r trafodaethau am y pynciau yr oeddem yn ymdrin â nhw. Roedd yn brofiad gwych bod ar ymweliad pwyllgor yn enwedig gydag Oscar, oherwydd, ni waeth i ble yr oeddech yn mynd na'r pwnc dan sylw, roedd Oscar wrth ei fodd yn mynd allan a chwrdd â phobl, a siarad â nhw am y gwaith yr oeddent yn ei wneud. Ac rwy'n credu ei bod hi'n ddiogel dweud bod ganddo le arbennig yn ei galon i Faes Awyr Caerdydd a'i fod wrth ei fodd yn ymweld ag ef. Ond lle bynnag yr aethom ni, byddai'n sgwrsio â phawb y cyfarfu â nhw, a'i ddiddordeb a'i frwdfrydedd yn llifo wrth iddo eu holi am eu swyddogaethau a'u barn er mwyn cyfrannu at ein gwaith. Roedd Oscar yn gymeriad go iawn, ac rwy'n gobeithio fy mod i wedi llwyddo i grynhoi rhywfaint o hynny yn fy nghyfraniad i heddiw. Roedd yn arloeswr, a safodd fel symbol o Gymru fwy amrywiol, mwy modern - rhywbeth y mae siaradwyr blaenorol wedi cyfeirio ato, ond rhywbeth y mae angen i bob un ohonom ni gydweithio i'w gyflawni. Gall Oscar fod yn falch o bopeth a gyflawnodd, a bydd pob un ohonom ni yn gweld ei golli.
