English: Well, thank you for that answer, Cabinet Secretary. Now, last month, in an answer to Jeremy Miles, you highlighted that, as long as the 11 projects were in preparation, not all business cases had to be prepared before they could start working. But there's an issue still with the governance aspects of the city deal. Now, earlier this month - on 4 October - a paper to the cabinet scrutiny for Neath Port Talbot County Borough Council highlighted the concerns over the governance issues. Where are we with the governance issues, and when will you actually make a deadline by which they have to agree the governance issues, because there are projects that are ready to go, they're waiting for this process to be at that point where governance is in place and we can actually ensure that these are going ahead properly?
Welsh: Wel, diolch am eich ateb, Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet. Nawr, y mis diwethaf, mewn ateb i Jeremy Miles, fe bwysleisioch chi, cyn belled â bod yr 11 prosiect wrthi'n cael eu paratoi, nad oedd yn rhaid i bob achos busnes gael eu paratoi cyn y gallent ddechrau gweithio. Ond mae problem o hyd gydag agweddau llywodraethu'r fargen ddinesig. Nawr, yn gynharach y mis hwn - ar 4 Hydref - mewn papur i bwyllgor craffu cabinet Cyngor Bwrdeistref Sirol Castell-nedd Port Talbot, tynnwyd sylw at y pryderon ynglŷn â'r materion llywodraethu. Beth yw ein sefyllfa mewn perthynas â'r materion llywodraethu, a phryd y byddwch yn gosod terfyn amser iddynt ar gyfer datrys y materion llywodraethu, gan fod rhai prosiectau yn barod i gychwyn, maent yn aros i'r broses hon gyrraedd pwynt lle y mae trefniadau llywodraethu ar waith ac y gallwn sicrhau eu bod yn mynd rhagddynt yn iawn?
English: Well, I thank David Rees for that question. Dirprwy Lywydd, just to confirm that, following my last questions, officials of the Welsh Government, and the UK Government, wrote jointly to the component authorities of the city deal, confirming on 12 October that neither Government will require all 11 business cases to be approved before funds can begin to flow. There are, however, a set of steps that need to be taken in order to allow that to happen. They're relatively simple in nature but, for the record, I'll just mention them briefly, Dirprwy Lywydd. The first thing is that governance documents do need to be agreed by the full councils of the four authorities, and then by both Governments. That will allow the current joint committee to come out of its shadow form and to be fully appointed as a joint committee responsible for finance, staffing and legal decisions in delivery of the deal. That will allow business cases to come forward and, once approved, for funding to flow. I am very keen that the deal moves on from talking about the deal itself to the delivery phase. I was encouraged by the statement put out by the shadow joint committee, the leaders of the four authorities meeting together on 16 October, when they said that they were more determined than ever to see the deal turned into practical action on the ground, and there is now a clear process set out by which they can ensure that that happens.
Welsh: Wel, diolch i David Rees am y cwestiwn. Dirprwy Lywydd, hoffwn gadarnhau, yn dilyn fy nghwestiynau diwethaf, fod swyddogion Llywodraeth Cymru a Llywodraeth y DU wedi ysgrifennu ar y cyd at awdurdodau cyfansoddol y fargen ddinesig, yn cadarnhau ar 12 Hydref na fydd unrhyw un o'r Llywodraethau yn ei gwneud yn ofynnol i'r 11 achos busnes gael eu cymeradwyo cyn y gall yr arian lifo. Fodd bynnag, mae angen rhoi cyfres o gamau ar waith er mwyn caniatáu i hynny ddigwydd. Maent yn gymharol syml eu natur, ond ar gyfer y cofnod, fe soniaf amdanynt yn gryno, Dirprwy Lywydd. Y peth cyntaf yw bod angen i gynghorau llawn y pedwar awdurdod gytuno ar ddogfennau llywodraethu, ac yna bydd angen i'r ddwy Lywodraeth gytuno arnynt hefyd. Bydd hynny'n caniatáu i'r cyd-bwyllgor presennol ddod allan o'i ffurf gysgodol a chael ei benodi'n llawn fel cyd-bwyllgor sy'n gyfrifol am gyllid, staffio a phenderfyniadau cyfreithiol wrth gyflawni'r fargen. Bydd hynny'n caniatáu i achosion busnes gael eu cyflwyno, ac i'r arian lifo wedi iddynt gael eu cymeradwyo. Rwy'n awyddus iawn i'r fargen symud ymlaen o siarad am y fargen ei hun i'r cyfnod cyflawni. Roedd y datganiad a gyhoeddwyd gan y cyd-bwyllgor cysgodol, arweinwyr y pedwar awdurdod yn cyfarfod ar 16 Hydref, yn galonogol iawn, pan ddywedasant eu bod yn fwy penderfynol nag erioed i weld y fargen yn cael ei throi'n gamau gweithredu ymarferol ar lawr gwlad, a bod proses glir wedi'i nodi bellach iddynt allu sicrhau bod hynny'n digwydd.
English: Well, I'm concerned about governance and the delays that uncertainty about it might be causing at the moment. And I was very encouraged by your own comments last year, when you told me that, once the deal is agreed and funding secured - which you've just confirmed now - then the board should be representative of businesses in the region. And you assured me that you would include this important requirement in the discussions that you have with the board. Now, I understand that it seems to be a bit nearer than we were last time we spoke, but there is some disquiet still that private enterprise isn't adequately represented in the shadow board, and I'm wondering how your representations to the board on this important point have moved matters on.
Welsh: Wel, mae'r llywodraethu a'r oedi sydd efallai'n deillio o'r ansicrwydd yn ei gylch ar hyn o bryd yn peri pryder i mi. Ac roedd eich sylwadau y llynedd yn galonogol iawn, pan ddywedoch wrthyf, unwaith y cytunir ar y fargen ac y sicrheir yr arian - ac rydych newydd gadarnhau hynny yn awr - y dylai'r bwrdd gynrychioli busnesau yn y rhanbarth. A rhoesoch sicrwydd i mi y byddech yn cynnwys y gofyniad pwysig hwn yn y trafodaethau rydych yn eu cael gyda'r bwrdd. Nawr, gwn ei bod yn ymddangos bod hynny ychydig yn agosach na ble'r oeddem y tro diwethaf inni siarad, ond mae rhywfaint o ansicrwydd o hyd nad yw mentrau preifat yn cael eu cynrychioli'n ddigonol ar y bwrdd cysgodol, ac rwy'n meddwl tybed sut y mae'ch sylwadau i'r bwrdd ar y pwynt pwysig hwn wedi symud pethau yn eu blaen.
English: Well, I thank Suzy Davies for that. Just to give a tiny bit more detail, then, Dirprwy Lywydd, the way that governance arrangements are currently envisaged is that there will be a joint cabinet of the four leaders. In the end, because this is public money and money that belongs to local authorities as well as to the two Governments, those decisions must be made by elected individuals. But I have agreed with the Secretary of State that there should be an economic strategy board that will provide direct advice to that cabinet. The economic strategy board will be chaired by a private sector business representative, and we're in discussions with the Secretary of State's office as to how we can make sure that that person is appointed, and the people who will support them in that work.
Welsh: Wel, diolch i Suzy Davies am hynny. Er mwyn rhoi ychydig mwy o fanylder, felly, Dirprwy Lywydd, ar hyn o bryd, rhagwelir y bydd trefniadau llywodraethu yn golygu cabinet ar y cyd o'r pedwar arweinydd. Yn y pen draw, gan fod hwn yn arian cyhoeddus sy'n perthyn i awdurdodau lleol yn ogystal â'r ddwy Lywodraeth, mae'n rhaid i unigolion etholedig wneud y penderfyniadau hynny. Ond rwyf wedi cytuno gyda'r Ysgrifennydd Gwladol y dylid cael bwrdd strategaeth economaidd a fydd yn rhoi cyngor uniongyrchol i'r cabinet hwnnw. Bydd cynrychiolydd busnes o'r sector preifat yn cadeirio'r bwrdd strategaeth economaidd, ac rydym yn trafod â swyddfa'r Ysgrifennydd Gwladol sut y gallwn sicrhau bod yr unigolyn hwnnw'n cael ei benodi, a'r bobl a fydd yn eu cefnogi gyda'r gwaith hwnnw.
English: Further to the governance issues, what discussions has the Cabinet Secretary had relating to financial contributions and return involving the four authorities? Councils may have to borrow around £360 million, which, in these times of austerity, is a major challenge. So, what discussions have you had about that? And also as regards the city deal, what discussions have you had as regards the need to be working cross-sectorally, with local government, and not just with the private sector but also with, particularly, the health sector, because there are major health innovations happening locally, and we'd like to see both sectors talking to one another?
Welsh: Yn ychwanegol at y materion llywodraethu, pa drafodaethau y mae Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet wedi'u cael ynglŷn â chyfraniadau ariannol ac elw mewn perthynas â'r pedwar awdurdod? Efallai y bydd yn rhaid i gynghorau fenthyca oddeutu £360 miliwn, sy'n her fawr mewn cyfnod o gyni. Felly, pa drafodaethau a gawsoch ynglŷn â hynny? A hefyd, o ran y fargen ddinesig, pa drafodaethau a gawsoch ynglŷn â'r angen i weithio ar draws sectorau, gyda llywodraeth leol, ac nid gyda'r sector preifat yn unig ond hefyd, yn enwedig, gyda'r sector iechyd, gan fod arloesi sylweddol ym maes iechyd yn digwydd yn lleol, a hoffem weld y ddau sector yn siarad â'i gilydd?
English: Dirprwy Lywydd, just to take up the second point first, because Dai Lloyd is absolutely right - it is very important that the range of interests that have a direct contribution to make to the city deal are represented around the table when those decisions are being made. That clearly involves the local authorities themselves and their private sector partners, but the university is a very important player in all of this - has been from the beginning - and the university health board is as well. And part of the reason why governance arrangements take a little while sometimes to be agreed is that we have to make sure that we have all those component parts in place and that every part is confident that it can make the contribution that it wants to make. As to the financial arrangements, these were confirmed in the original deal document. There's £1.3 billion worth of additional investment coming to the Swansea Bay city region area as a result of the deal. The Welsh Government will provide £125 million of capital. The UK Government will provide £115 million. Then there are contributions from local authorities and from private sector interests as well. It is important that local authorities understand that they will have to use their borrowing powers in some instances in order to make their contribution, but all of that was, I believe, Dirprwy Lywydd, well understood when the deal was originally agreed back in March.
Welsh: Dirprwy Lywydd, i fynd ar drywydd yr ail bwynt yn gyntaf, gan fod Dai Lloyd yn llygad ei le - mae'n bwysig iawn fod yr ystod o fuddiannau sydd â chyfraniad uniongyrchol i'w wneud at y fargen ddinesig yn cael eu cynrychioli o amgylch y bwrdd pan fydd y penderfyniadau hynny'n cael eu gwneud. Mae hynny'n amlwg yn cynnwys yr awdurdodau lleol eu hunain a'u partneriaid yn y sector preifat, ond mae gan y brifysgol rôl bwysig iawn i'w chwarae yn hyn o beth - ac mae hynny wedi bod yn wir o'r cychwyn cyntaf - yn ogystal â bwrdd iechyd y brifysgol. A rhan o'r rheswm pam ei bod weithiau'n cymryd peth amser i gytuno ar drefniadau llywodraethu yw bod yn rhaid inni sicrhau bod yr holl ddarnau cydrannol hynny gennym ar waith a bod pob rhan yn hyderus y gall wneud y cyfraniad y mae'n awyddus i'w wneud. O ran y trefniadau ariannol, fe'u cadarnhawyd yn nogfen wreiddiol y fargen. Bydd gwerth £1.3 biliwn o fuddsoddiad ychwanegol yn dod i ardal dinas-ranbarth Bae Abertawe o ganlyniad i'r fargen. Bydd Llywodraeth Cymru yn darparu £125 miliwn o gyfalaf. Bydd Llywodraeth y DU yn darparu £115 miliwn. Yna ceir cyfraniadau gan awdurdodau lleol ac o fuddiannau sector preifat hefyd. Mae'n bwysig fod awdurdodau lleol yn deall y bydd yn rhaid iddynt ddefnyddio eu pwerau benthyca mewn rhai achosion er mwyn gwneud eu cyfraniad, ond credaf fod pawb, Dirprwy Lywydd, yn deall hynny'n iawn pan gytunwyd ar y fargen yn wreiddiol ym mis Mawrth.
English: I thank Dawn Bowden for that. Well, Dirprwy Lywydd, full retention of the £244 million council tax reduction scheme, an extra £1 million to uplift the discretionary assistance fund and an additional £20 million for homelessness prevention are amongst the budget elements that assist most vulnerable groups in Merthyr Tydfil, Rhymney and beyond.
Welsh: Diolch i Dawn Bowden am hynny. Wel, Dirprwy Lywydd, mae cadw cynllun gostyngiadau'r dreth gyngor gwerth £244 miliwn, £1 miliwn ychwanegol i roi hwb i'r gronfa cymorth dewisol ac £20 miliwn ychwanegol ar gyfer atal digartrefedd ymhlith yr elfennau cyllidebol sy'n cynorthwyo'r grwpiau mwyaf agored i niwed ym Merthyr Tudful, Rhymni a thu hwnt.
English: I thank the Cabinet Secretary for that answer, and I'm sure, Cabinet Secretary, you will agree that the support offered to vulnerable people by this draft Welsh budget stands in stark contrast to the grotesque chaos of the Tories' universal credit scheme. Welfare reforms, Cabinet Secretary, are stripping billions of pounds - yes, billions of pounds - from our Valleys communities, including Merthyr Tydfil and Rhymney, and this, in turn, is impoverishing the lives of too many people. And I'm sure the Cabinet Secretary will agree that the work of food banks is not uplifting, as leading Tories describe them, but are a sad indictment of twenty-first century Britain. So, in spite of the Tory cuts to our Welsh budget, can I ask the Cabinet Secretary to confirm that the focus of this Welsh Government will be delivering the warm, secure homes that our people need, the financial support and advice they deserve, and the holding out of a helping hand that we may all need in tough times, so that in Wales at least, people know whose side we're on?
Welsh: Diolch i Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet am ei ateb, ac rwy'n siŵr, Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet, y byddwch yn cytuno bod y gefnogaeth a gynigir i bobl sy'n agored i niwed yng nghyllideb ddrafft Cymru yn gwrthgyferbynnu'n llwyr ag anhrefn ffiaidd cynllun credyd cynhwysol y Torïaid. Mae diwygio lles, Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet, yn mynd â biliynau o bunnoedd - ie, biliynau o bunnoedd - oddi ar gymunedau ein Cymoedd, gan gynnwys Merthyr Tudful a Rhymni, ac mae hyn, yn ei dro, yn gwneud bywydau gormod o bobl yn dlotach. Ac rwy'n siŵr y bydd Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet yn cytuno nad yw gwaith banciau bwyd yn galonogol, fel y'u disgrifir gan Dorïaid blaenllaw, ond yn hytrach eu bod yn feirniadaeth drist o Brydain yr unfed ganrif ar hugain. Felly, er gwaethaf toriadau'r Torïaid i'n cyllideb yng Nghymru, a gaf i ofyn i Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet gadarnhau y bydd y Llywodraeth hon yn canolbwyntio ar ddarparu'r cartrefi cynnes a diogel sydd eu hangen ar ein pobl, y cymorth a'r cyngor ariannol y maent yn eu haeddu, ac yn estyn llaw y gall fod ei hangen ar bob un ohonom mewn cyfnod anodd, fel y gall pobl yng Nghymru wybod, o leiaf, ar ochr pwy rydym yn sefyll?
English: Dirprwy Lywydd, let me begin by agreeing with the point that Dawn Bowden made in opening her supplementary question. I attended a meeting early today involving housing associations, the third sector, credit unions - all of them expressing real concerns about the impact that changes to universal credit are already beginning to have in parts of Wales. Some of us remember the time when we had what was called a social security system, and what we now have is exactly the opposite, a system that breeds insecurity in the lives of those people least able to bear it, and the result is that costs are created and displaced into other parts of the system. The Trussell Trust has reported that food bank usage in areas where there has already been full universal credit roll-out has increased by more than twice the rate in other parts of the UK where roll-out has not happened. But we see it as well in escalating arears, evictions, impact on mental health services, and so on. I know Members here have asked me in the past about the way in which Welsh Government budgets can be used to protect the social fabric of our society at a time when it is under such strain, and where individuals need to rely on it all the more. And the points that Dawn Bowden made about what we are trying to do in housing, in supporting people in greatest need, are part of our ongoing efforts to try to use the budgets we have to make good the social fabric because we know how much it is needed here in Wales.
Welsh: Dirprwy Lywydd, gadewch i mi ddechrau drwy gytuno â'r pwynt a wnaeth Dawn Bowden wrth agor ei chwestiwn atodol. Mynychais gyfarfod yn gynnar heddiw gyda chymdeithasau tai, y trydydd sector, undebau credyd - pob un ohonynt yn mynegi pryderon gwirioneddol ynglŷn â'r effaith y mae'r newidiadau i gredyd cynhwysol eisoes yn ei chael mewn rhannau o Gymru. Mae rhai ohonom yn cofio'r adeg pan oedd gennym yr hyn a elwir yn system nawdd cymdeithasol, a'r hyn sydd gennym bellach yw gwrthwyneb hynny'n llwyr, system sy'n meithrin ansicrwydd ym mywydau'r bobl sydd leiaf abl i ymdopi â'r ansicrwydd hwnnw, a'r canlyniad yw bod costau'n cael eu creu ac yn cael eu dadleoli i rannau eraill o'r system. Mae Ymddiriedolaeth Trussell wedi nodi bod y defnydd o fanciau bwyd mewn ardaloedd lle y rhoddwyd credyd cynhwysol ar waith yn llawn wedi cynyddu mwy na dwywaith y gyfradd mewn rhannau eraill o'r DU lle nad yw wedi'i roi ar waith. Ond fe'i gwelwn hefyd drwy'r cynnydd mewn ôl-ddyledion, achosion o droi allan, yr effaith ar wasanaethau iechyd meddwl, ac yn y blaen. Gwn fod Aelodau wedi gofyn i mi yn y gorffennol ynglŷn â'r ffordd y gellir defnyddio cyllidebau Llywodraeth Cymru i warchod gwead cymdeithasol ein cymdeithas ar adeg pan fo cymaint o bwysau arno, a lle y mae angen i unigolion ddibynnu arno gymaint â hynny'n fwy. Ac mae'r pwyntiau a wnaeth Dawn Bowden ynglŷn â'r hyn y ceisiwn ei wneud ym maes tai, o ran cefnogi'r bobl â'r angen mwyaf, yn rhan o'n hymdrechion parhaus i geisio defnyddio'r cyllidebau sydd gennym i warchod y gwead cymdeithasol hwnnw, gan y gwyddom cymaint y mae ei angen yma yng Nghymru.
English: Thank you, Minister, for replying to Dawn Bowden's question with so much detail. But I think there is another side of the coin. Vulnerable people on low incomes have been hit hard by the Labour Government's failure to pass on the funds it has to freeze the council tax in Wales, with the result that council tax debt has been labelled as 'Wales's biggest debt problem' by Citizens Advice. The Welsh Local Government Association has warned that councils will have to raise -
Welsh: Diolch, Gweinidog, am ateb cwestiwn Dawn Bowden gyda chymaint o fanylder. Ond credaf fod ochr arall i'r geiniog. Mae pobl sy'n agored i niwed ac ar incwm isel wedi cael ergyd drom gan fethiant y Llywodraeth Lafur i ddefnyddio'r arian sydd ganddi i rewi'r dreth gyngor yng Nghymru, gyda'r canlyniad fod Cyngor ar Bopeth wedi labelu dyled y dreth gyngor fel 'problem ddyled fwyaf Cymru'. Mae Cymdeithas Llywodraeth Leol Cymru wedi rhybuddio y bydd yn rhaid i gynghorau godi -
English: Are we coming to a question, please?
Welsh: A ydym yn dod at gwestiwn, os gwelwch yn dda?
English: [Continues.] - council tax -
Welsh: [Yn parhau.] - y dreth gyngor -
English: Question, please.
Welsh: Cwestiwn, os gwelwch yn dda.
English: [Continues.] - council tax by 5 per cent due to proposals in the draft budget. What action will the Cabinet Secretary take to alleviate the problem of council tax debt caused by regular above inflation increases and relieve the burden on hard-pressed households in Merthyr Tydfil and elsewhere in Wales?
Welsh: [Yn parhau.] - y dreth gyngor 5 y cant o ganlyniad i gynigion yn y gyllideb ddrafft. Pa gamau y bydd Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet yn eu cymryd i liniaru problem dyledion y dreth gyngor a achosir gan godiadau cyson uwchben chwyddiant, ac i leddfu'r baich ar aelwydydd o dan bwysau ym Merthyr Tudful ac mewn mannau eraill yng Nghymru?
English: Dirprwy Lywydd, I entirely reject the underlying proposition in that question, which is that had we frozen the council tax in Wales, that would somehow have left people better off. What we know is is that without the ability to raise the council tax, then the ability of local authorities to go on providing the services on which people rely would have been even further compromised. His party's policy of attempting to freeze the council tax in England is in deep disarray. Very few councils now take up that offer and, in fact, the council tax in England rose at a higher rate than in Wales in the last year. What we do is we go on, quite unlike councils that are controlled by his party, protecting the most vulnerable from the impact of the council tax - £344 million in the budget laid in front of this Assembly earlier this month to make sure that the most vulnerable individuals and households pay no council tax at all here in Wales. The average council tax being paid by people on those benefits in England is now £181, and in many Tory authorities it is over twice that amount. The most vulnerable people, from benefits that have been frozen, are having to find money every single week to pay a tax that here in Wales nobody in those circumstances pays at all.
Welsh: Dirprwy Lywydd, rwy'n gwrthod yr awgrym sydd wrth wraidd y cwestiwn hwnnw'n llwyr, sef y buasai pobl rywsut yn well eu byd pe baem wedi rhewi'r dreth gyngor yng Nghymru. Heb y gallu i godi'r dreth gyngor, yr hyn a wyddom yw y buasai gallu'r awdurdodau lleol i barhau i ddarparu'r gwasanaethau y mae pobl yn dibynnu arnynt wedi ei beryglu hyd yn oed ymhellach. Mae polisi ei blaid o geisio rhewi'r dreth gyngor yn Lloegr mewn anhrefn llwyr. Ychydig iawn o gynghorau sy'n derbyn y cynnig hwnnw bellach, ac mewn gwirionedd, cododd y dreth gyngor yn Lloegr ar gyfradd uwch nag yng Nghymru dros y flwyddyn ddiwethaf. Yr hyn a wnawn, yn wahanol iawn i gynghorau a reolir gan ei blaid, yw parhau i amddiffyn y rhai mwyaf agored i niwed rhag effaith y dreth gyngor - roedd y gyllideb a gyflwynwyd i'r Cynulliad yn gynharach y mis hwn yn cynnwys £344 miliwn i sicrhau nad yw'r unigolion a'r aelwydydd mwyaf agored i niwed yn talu unrhyw dreth gyngor o gwbl yma yng Nghymru. Ar gyfartaledd, mae pobl ar y budd-daliadau hynny yn Lloegr yn talu £181 o dreth gyngor, ac mewn llawer o awdurdodau Torïaidd, maent yn talu dros ddwywaith y swm hwnnw. Mae'r bobl fwyaf agored i niwed yn gorfod dod o hyd i arian bob wythnos o fudd-daliadau sydd wedi'u rhewi i dalu treth nad oes unrhyw un sydd yn yr amgylchiadau hynny yng Nghymru yn ei thalu o gwbl.
English: Thank you very much. We now move to spokespersons' questions, and I call Plaid Cymru spokesperson, Steffan Lewis.
Welsh: Diolch yn fawr iawn. Symudwn yn awr at gwestiynau'r llefarwyr, a galwaf ar lefarydd Plaid Cymru, Steffan Lewis.
English: Diolch, Dirprwy Lywydd. Yesterday, the Welsh Government published the detail of its draft budget, including detailed budget expenditure line tables for 2018-19 and 2019-20. In the last 24 hours, a number of organisations have expressed concern regarding the Supporting People budget line in light of that budget line in particular disappearing in the 2019-20 budget table. Plaid Cymru, of course, understands those very real concerns as it formed a central part of our budget agreement with Welsh Government. Could the Cabinet Secretary take this opportunity to clarify the status of the Supporting People grant for both financial years, and can he particularly elaborate on the relationship between the Supporting People grant and the local government revenue support grant for both those financial years, in light of the fact that hypothecation will disappear?
Welsh: Diolch, Dirprwy Lywydd. Ddoe, cyhoeddodd Llywodraeth Cymru fanylion ei chyllideb ddrafft, gan gynnwys tablau manwl o linellau gwariant y gyllideb ar gyfer 2018-19 a 2019-20. Yn ystod y 24 awr ddiwethaf, mae nifer o sefydliadau wedi mynegi pryder ynglŷn â llinell gyllideb Cefnogi Pobl o ystyried bod y llinell gyllideb benodol honno'n diflannu yn nhabl y gyllideb ar gyfer 2019-20. Mae Plaid Cymru, wrth gwrs, yn deall y pryderon hynod ddilys hyn gan ei fod yn rhan ganolog o'n cytundeb cyllidebol â Llywodraeth Cymru. A wnaiff Ysgrifennydd Cabinet fanteisio ar y cyfle hwn i egluro statws y grant Cefnogi Pobl am y ddwy flynedd ariannol, ac a all ymhelaethu'n benodol ar y berthynas rhwng y grant Cefnogi Pobl a grant cynnal refeniw llywodraeth leol ar gyfer y ddwy flynedd ariannol, o ystyried na fydd arian wedi'i neilltuo?
