English: Thank you. Can I thank Suzy Davies for her questions? I know that you've got a keen interest in this as the regional Assembly Member. The point in terms of the consultation and directly contacting individuals like care homes and schools is a really, really good point, and I'll take that on board and speak to officials about how we can do that. In terms of Port Talbot, you're absolutely right that there are the two strands there in terms of the impact on air quality, and that's why I'm keen to look at the Port Talbot action plan and actually make sure that it looks at this as a whole. And we need to monitor to see where the infringements are and when they're happening. As well as the steelworks themselves, you actually have all the other industry around it as well. So, you're right that it is a really complex, integrated situation, but there's no point tackling one without the other; we need to address them together to improve air quality in the area. I'm not entirely sure on the question about the A roads. The ones that I listed in the statement are where we know there are exceedances, and also because they are trunk roads and we have the responsibility or are able to action that as a Welsh Government. But I take on board what she says in terms of town centres. That's why we need to look at the clean air programme and the clean air plan and how we work with local authorities and other organisations to tackle that.
Welsh: Diolch. A gaf i ddiolch i Suzy Davies am ei chwestiynau? Rwy'n gwybod fod gennych chi ddiddordeb mawr yn hyn fel yr Aelod Cynulliad rhanbarthol. Mae'r pwynt o ran yr ymgynghoriad a chysylltu ag unigolion fel cartrefi gofal ac ysgolion yn uniongyrchol yn bwynt da iawn, iawn, a byddaf yn ystyried hynny ac yn siarad â swyddogion ynghylch sut y gallwn ni wneud hynny. Rydych chi'n hollol gywir o ran Port Talbot, bod dau linyn yn y fan honno o ran yr effaith ar ansawdd yr aer, a dyna pam yr wyf yn awyddus i edrych ar gynllun gweithredu Port Talbot ac mewn gwirionedd gwneud yn siŵr ei bod yn edrych ar hyn yn ei gyfanrwydd. Ac mae angen inni fonitro i weld ble maen nhw'n rhy uchel a phryd y maen nhw'n digwydd. Yn ogystal â'r gwaith dur ei hun, mae gennych chi mewn gwirionedd yr holl ddiwydiant eraill o'i amgylch hefyd. Felly, rydych chi'n gywir ei fod yn sefyllfa wirioneddol gymhleth, integredig, ond nid oes unrhyw ddiben mynd i'r afael ag un heb y llall; mae angen inni fynd i'r afael â nhw gyda'i gilydd i wella ansawdd aer yn yr ardal. Nid wyf yn gwbl siwr ynghylch y cwestiwn am ffyrdd A. Y rhai y rhestrais i yn y datganiad yw'r rhai y gwyddom ni bod y lefela'n uchel, a hefyd oherwydd eu bod yn gefnffyrdd a'n bod ni yn gyfrifol amdanyn nhw neu ein bod yn gallu gweithredu hynny fel Llywodraeth Cymru. Ond rwy'n derbyn yr hyn y mae hi'n ei ddweud am ganol trefi. Dyna pam y mae angen inni edrych ar y rhaglen aer glân a'r cynllun aer glân a sut yr ydym ni'n gweithio gydag awdurdodau lleol a sefydliadau eraill i fynd i'r afael â hynny.
English: I thank the Member for his contributions. You're absolutely right about the need to cross-reference in terms of our ambitions and aspirations in terms of active travel. That's why we're only going to progress in this area if we truly work across Government. That's why I've been working very closely with the Cabinet Secretary for Economy and Transport, making sure that there are those alternatives in place and that, when we are planning for the future, we're taking into account our obligations as part of the well-being of future generations Act as well. In terms of a default 20 mph zone in inner urban areas, I certainly think that local authorities could look at that as part of their clean air zones, but these are all things that we need to look at as part of the air quality monitoring and assessment centre and also as part of the clean air plan and programme that we'll be bringing forward. On tree planting, you're absolutely right. I think the phrase was, 'The right trees in the right places' - and the role that they can play in terms of carbon capture, as well. I think one of the things to do with that is that the other priority within my portfolio is woodland creation, and yes, we know that, to meet our ambitions on that, we need to create woodland at scale, and that's actually not forgetting that it's not just about woodland creation on scale and in great sizes, but it's about, actually, our urban and peri-urban areas as well, and that's a role for the green infrastructure fund as well.
Welsh: Diolch i'r Aelod am ei gyfraniadau. Rydych yn llygad eich lle ynghylch yr angen i groesgyfeirio ein huchelgeisiau a'n dyheadau o ran teithio llesol. Dyna pam y byddwn ond yn symud ymlaen yn y maes hwn os weithiwn ni ar draws y Llywodraeth. Dyna pam yr wyf wedi bod yn gweithio'n agos iawn gydag Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet dros yr Economi a Thrafnidiaeth, i sicrhau bod y dewisiadau eraill hynny ar gael, a phan fyddwn yn cynllunio ar gyfer y dyfodol, y byddwn ni'n ystyried ein rhwymedigaethau o ran Deddf Llesiant Cenedlaethau'r Dyfodol hefyd. O ran sefydlu parth â chyflymder rhagosodedig o 20 mya mewn ardaloedd trefol, credaf yn sicr y gallai awdurdodau lleol edrych ar hynny fel rhan o'u parthau aer glân. Ond mae'r rhain i gyd yn bethau y mae angen inni edrych arnynt fel rhan o'r ganolfan monitro ac asesu ansawdd aer a hefyd fel rhan o gynllun a rhaglen aer glân y byddwn yn eu cyflwyno. Ynghylch plannu coed, rydych chi'n berffaith iawn. Credaf mai'r ymadrodd oedd, 'Y coed iawn yn y lleoedd iawn' - a'u swyddogaeth o ran dal carbon hefyd. Credaf mai un o'r pethau i'w wneud ynghylch hynny yw dweud mai'r flaenoriaeth arall o fewn fy mhortffolio yw creu coetiroedd. Ac ydym, rydym yn gwybod, er mwyn bodloni ein huchelgeisiau yn y maes hwnnw, fod angen inni greu coetiroedd ar raddfa eang, heb anghofio bod mwy i hyn na chreu coetiroedd mawr ac ar raddfa eang yn unig. Mewn gwirionedd mae'n ymwneud â'n hardaloedd trefol a'r ardaloedd o gwmpas ein trefi hefyd, a dyna swyddogaeth i'r gronfa seilwaith gwyrdd hefyd.
English: Thank you. I have got four more speakers and if you look at the time, you'll know that's going to be slightly impossible. I'm happy to run it over, but please can we not have long speeches? If your question or subject has been covered, then perhaps we can think about those questions. Vikki Howells.
Welsh: Diolch, mae gennyf bedwar siaradwr arall, ac os sylwch chi ar faint o'r gloch yw hi, byddwch yn gwybod bod hynny braidd yn amhosibl. Rwyf yn hapus i fynd dros amser, ond gawn ni osgoi areithiau hir? Os cafodd eich cwestiwn neu bwnc ei drafod eisoes, yna efallai gallwn feddwl am y cwestiynau hynny. Vikki Howells.
English: Diolch, Dirprwy Lywydd. Minister, I note your comments around the direct actions that the Welsh Government can take on the motorway and trunk road network. One of the areas mentioned, the A470 between Pontypridd and Upper Boat, is a key commuter link for my constituency. Lots of residents already raise their concerns with me about congestion in this area, so what monitoring will the Welsh Government do to make sure that measures like temporary 50 mph zones aren't having a negative impact on commuters? Secondly, key to your statement is encouraging behaviour change among Welsh citizens, but this requires that we have policies in place to enable less harmful behaviours. That, I would argue, requires a cross-Government approach, for example in terms of improving public transport so that my constituents don't need to use the A470 to get to Cardiff, or air quality around schools, for example. So, what work are you doing with colleagues to ensure that this cross-Government approach is taken?
Welsh: Diolch, Dirprwy Lywydd. Gweinidog, nodaf eich sylwadau ynghylch y camau gweithredu uniongyrchol y gall Llywodraeth Cymru eu cymryd ar y rhwydwaith traffyrdd a chefnffyrdd. Mae un o'r meysydd a grybwyllwyd, yr A470 rhwng Pontypridd a Glan-bad, yn ffordd gyswllt allweddol i gymudwyr yn fy etholaeth i. Mae llawer o drigolion eisoes wedi datgan eu pryderon wrthyf ynghylch tagfeydd yn yr ardal hon, felly pa waith monitro fydd Llywodraeth Cymru yn ei wneud i sicrhau na fydd mesurau megis parthau 50 mya dros dro yn cael effaith negyddol ar gymudwyr? Yn ail, yr hyn sy'n allweddol yn eich datganiad yw annog newid arferion dinasyddion Cymru, ond i gyflawni hynny bydda'n rhaid inni roi polisïau ar waith i annog arferion llai niweidiol. Byddai hynny, rwy'n dadlau, yn gofyn am ddull traws-lywodraethol, er enghraifft gwella trafnidiaeth gyhoeddus fel na fydd raid i fy etholwyr i ddefnyddio'r A470 i gyrraedd Caerdydd, neu ansawdd yr aer o gwmpas ysgolion, er enghraifft. Felly, pa waith yr ydych chi'n ei wneud gyda'ch cydweithwyr i sicrhau'r dull traws-lywodraethol hwn?
English: The Member is absolutely right in terms of the importance of a cross-Government approach, and there was a wry smile, I think, from colleagues over here when you were talking about if we had that replaced with the alternative, then your constituents wouldn't have to sit in the congestion on the A470. I think I said in previous responses that that's why I'm looking very closely with the Cabinet Secretary responsible for transport at how we can actually not just look at the whole in terms of our active travel - . If we are going to be able to truly tackle the problem of poor air quality, we have to have that in place, so that if we want the behavioural change, people to shift the way they travel and the way they get to work, the way they go out for their leisure, then we need to make sure we've got something for them to shift towards. On the A470 - the unintended consequences and how it will be monitored - it will, actually, be closely monitored by roadside testing, and the results will be fed into ongoing investigations and modelling to establish the measures likely to achieve compliance in the shortest possible time. So, that will be able to be closely monitored to see the effectiveness of the measures in the area.
Welsh: Mae'r Aelod yn berffaith iawn o ran pwysigrwydd dull traws-Lywodraethol, ac roedd yna wên gam ar wynebau cyd-aelodau yma pan oeddech yn trafod canlyniad newid hwnnw am y dewis amgen, yna ni fyddai eich etholwyr yn gorfod eistedd yn y tagfeydd ar yr A470. Credaf imi ddweud mewn ymatebion blaenorol mai dyna pam yr wyf yn edrych yn fanwl iawn gydag Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet sy'n gyfrifol am drafnidiaeth ar sut na allwn edrych ar y darlun cyfan yn unig o ran teithio llesol - . Os ydym am fynd i'r afael â phroblem ansawdd aer gwael mewn gwirionedd, mae'n rhaid i hynny fod yn ei le, felly, os ydym eisiau gweld newid mewn arferion; pobl i newid y ffordd y maen nhw'n teithio a'r ffordd y maen nhw'n mynd i'r gwaith, y ffordd y maen nhw'n mynd allan yn eu hamser hamdden, yna mae angen inni sicrhau bod gennym rywbeth gwell ar eu cyfer. Ynghylch yr A470 - y canlyniadau anfwriadol a sut y caiff ei fonitro - bydd yn cael ei fonitro'n agos gan brofion ymyl y ffordd, a bydd y canlyniadau yn cael eu cynnwys mewn ymchwiliadau a modelu parhaus i sefydlu'r mesurau a fydd yn debygol o sicrhau cydymffurfiaeth yn yr amser byrraf posibl. Felly, bydd modd monitro hynny'n agos i weld effeithiolrwydd y mesurau yn yr ardal.
English: I thank the Member for her questions. I think in terms of things like invest-to-save and the clean air plan and the clean air zones, I think Cardiff council is one of the areas that has been identified that is in exceedance, and as I said to your colleague Julie Morgan, I've been working, and officials have been liaising closely with Cardiff council on that. So, these are all things that can be considered as part of the plan and the programme going forward, and clean air zones. I am not a politician who would like to guess and make things up, so on the A48, I'll get clarification on that for you and come back to the Member. I think your first point is absolutely the most important: air quality and tackling it is as important as tackling road safety. And, actually, we have to work across parties, and across layers of Government, and across organisations within the community. As I said before, we're bringing in reducing speed limits, not just to annoy motorists, it's not to raise any charge or anything, it's not to raise revenue, it's actually for a reason, and I think if any authority was going to go down the road of a charge, particularly within the clean air zones, any profit from that we would look to go back into investing in public transport.
Welsh: Diolch i'r Aelod am ei chwestiynau. Yn fy marn i, o ran pethau fel buddsoddi i arbed, cynllun aer glân a pharthau aer glân, credaf fod cyngor Caerdydd yn un o'r meysydd sydd wedi ei nodi yn un o ormodiant, ac fel y dywedais wrth eich cyd-Aelod Julie Morgan, rwyf i wedi bod yn cydweithio â chyngor Caerdydd, a bu swyddogion mewn cysylltiad agos â nhw, ynghylch hynny. Felly, mae'r rhain i gyd yn bethau y gellir eu hystyried yn rhan o'r cynllun a'r rhaglen wrth symud ymlaen, a pharthau aer glân. Nid wyf yn wleidydd a fyddai'n hoffi dyfalu a gwneud pethau i fyny, felly ynglŷn â'r A48, byddaf yn cael eglurhad ynghylch hwnnw ichi ac yn dod nôl at yr Aelod. Credaf mai eich pwynt cyntaf yw'r pwysicaf o bell ffordd: mae ansawdd aer a mynd i'r afael â hynny cyn bwysiced â mynd i'r afael â diogelwch ar y ffyrdd. Ac, mewn gwirionedd, rhaid inni weithio ar draws y pleidiau, ac ar draws haenau o Lywodraeth, ac ar draws sefydliadau o fewn y gymuned. Fel y dywedais o'r blaen, rydym yn gostwng terfynau cyflymder, nid yn unig i gythruddo gyrwyr, nid i godi ffioedd na dim, nid i godi refeniw, mewn gwirionedd mae rheswm y tu ôl i hyn, a chredaf os byddai unrhyw awdurdod yn ystyried codi ffioedd, yn enwedig o fewn y parthau aer glân, yna byddem yn ystyried rhoi unrhyw elw tuag at fuddsoddi mewn trafnidiaeth gyhoeddus.
English: Despite the valued contribution of the Wales health impact assessment support unit to the A494 Queensferry-Ewloe public inquiry in 2007, the lack of teeth given to it led to my giving evidence on air quality to the public inquiry, which the inspector accepted, and which contributed to the successful recommendation that that programme or that proposal at that time should not go ahead. How will you ensure, therefore, that your new air quality monitoring assessment centre for Wales works with the Wales health impact assessment support unit, and has more teeth in circumstances such as that to be able to make direct representations, for example, during public inquiries? Secondly, and finally, we heard reference during the business statement to the Caernarfon-Bontnewydd A487 bypass. How can you ensure, or will you ensure that in the Welsh Government's further consideration, referred to earlier, of proposed routes for this bypass, that the black option, which received 75 per cent public support in the consultation in 2011, against just 6 per cent for the yellow option chosen by the Welsh Government - ? The black option found that a number of properties with an improvement in air quality would be 2,730 compared to a deterioration of just 192.
Welsh: Er gwaethaf cyfraniad gwerthfawr uned gymorth asesu effaith ar iechyd Cymru i ymchwiliad cyhoeddus yr A494 Queensferry-Ewlo yn 2007, oherwydd y diffyg grym oedd ganddo, bu raid i minnau roi tystiolaeth ar ansawdd aer i'r ymchwiliad cyhoeddus. Derbyniwyd hyn gan yr arolygydd, a chyfrannodd y dystiolaeth at yr argymhelliad llwyddiannus na ddylai'r rhaglen honno neu'r cynnig hwnnw ar yr adeg honno ddigwydd. Sut y byddwch chi'n sicrhau, felly, y bydd eich canolfan newydd ar gyfer asesu a monitro ansawdd aer Cymru yn gweithio gydag uned gymorth asesu effaith ar iechyd Cymru, sydd â mwy o rym mewn amgylchiadau tebyg i allu cyflwyno sylwadau uniongyrchol, er enghraifft, yn ystod ymchwiliadau cyhoeddus? Yn ail, ac yn olaf, clywsom gyfeiriad yn ystod y datganiad busnes at ffordd osgoi'r A487 Caernarfon-Bontnewydd. Sut y gallwch sicrhau, neu a wnewch chi sicrhau, fel rhan o ystyriaethau pellach Llywodraeth Cymru y cyfeiriwyd atynt yn gynharach, ynglŷn â llwybrau arfaethedig y ffordd osgoi hon, y bydd y dewis du, a gafodd gefnogaeth 75 y cant o'r cyhoedd yn yr ymgynghoriad yn 2011 o'i gymharu â 6 y cant o blaid y dewis melyn a ddewiswyd gan Lywodraeth Cymru - ? Canfu cefnogwyr y dewis du y byddai 2,730 eiddo yn gweld gwelliant yn ansawdd yr aer, a 192 eiddo yn unig yn gweld dirywiad.
English: Can I thank my north Wales colleague for his questions and his points there? The air quality monitoring assessment centre for Wales - the formation of the centre is to ensure decisions on tackling pollution are evidence based and that the associated actions are prioritised to maximise public health and well-being, and that does need to be in line with our obligations of the Well-being of Future Generations (Wales) Act 2015. And it goes back to what I said about making sure that we are working cross-Government on these things. Linking into his question on Bontnewydd, air quality has been approved as a priority and it's actually making sure that we all work - . That's why I'm working cross-Government regularly, liaising with officials and at a ministerial level with both the Cabinet Secretary for Economy and Transport and with the Cabinet Secretary for Health and Social Services.
Welsh: A gaf i ddiolch i fy nghyd-Aelod o ogledd Cymru am ei gwestiynau a'i bwyntiau? Canolfan asesu a monitro ansawdd aer Cymru - ffurfiwyd y Ganolfan i sicrhau bod penderfyniadau ynghylch mynd i'r afael â llygredd yn seiliedig ar dystiolaeth ac y blaenoriaethir y camau cysylltiedig i sicrhau'r gorau ar gyfer iechyd a llesiant y cyhoedd, ac mae angen i hynny fod yn unol â'n rhwymedigaethau i Ddeddf Llesiant Cenedlaethau'r Dyfodol (Cymru) 2015. Ac mae'n mynd yn ôl at yr hyn a ddywedais ynglŷn â sicrhau ein bod yn gweithio'n draws-lywodraethol ar y pethau hyn. Wrth gyfeirio at ei gwestiwn ar Bontnewydd, cymeradwywyd ansawdd aer fel blaenoriaeth ac mewn gwirionedd mae'n sicrhau bod pob un ohonom yn gweithio - . Dyna pam yr wyf yn gweithio'n rheolaidd yn draws-lywodraethol, yn cysylltu â swyddogion ac ar lefel weinidogol ag Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet dros yr Economi a Thrafnidiaeth ac Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet dros Iechyd a Gwasanaethau Cymdeithasol.
English: Minister, I welcome your statement today, and thank you very much for your personal interest and for the commitment that you have shown personally to ensure that Wales's air quality improves. As you are aware, in my constituency of Islwyn, there are concerns about the impact of air quality on health outcomes also, and I've impressed on you, Minister, the impact that that is having and the concerns of the lower Sirhowy valley residents' group with the potential emissions of nitrogen oxides into the atmosphere, and in an area that is in the top 6 per cent of poor health communities across Wales and the top 1 per cent of cancers. So, with this in mind, and the obvious concerns expressed throughout about the air quality in Hafodyrynys Road near Crumlin, what considerations has the Minister given to working with Caerphilly County Borough Council to ensure Wales's first ever clean air zone?
Welsh: Gweinidog, croesawaf eich datganiad heddiw, a diolch yn fawr iawn am eich diddordeb personol ac am yr ymroddiad a ddangosoch yn bersonol i sicrhau bod ansawdd aer Cymru yn gwella. Fel y gwyddoch, yn fy etholaeth i, Islwyn, ceir pryderon am effaith ansawdd aer ar ganlyniadau iechyd hefyd, ac rwyf wedi pwysleisio, Gweinidog, effaith hynny a phryderon grŵp trigolion Cwm Sirhywi isaf ynghylch allyriadau ocsidau nitrogen posibl i'r awyrgylch, ac mewn ardal sydd ymysg y 6 y cant uchaf o gymunedau iechyd gwael ar draws Cymru ac ymysg yr un y cant uchaf o ran achosion o ganser. Felly, gyda hyn mewn golwg, a'r pryderon amlwg a fynegwyd yn eang am ansawdd yr aer yn ffordd Hafodyrynys ger Crymlyn, ydy'r Gweinidog wedi ystyried gweithio gyda Chyngor Bwrdeistref Sirol Caerffili i sicrhau parth aer glân cyntaf Cymru?
English: I thank the Member for her questions, and I know this is an area that we've had previous discussions about and I'm familiar with your concerns. We know that apart from Cardiff, Caerphilly to Hafodyrynys is the one area within exceedance and has been issued with a directive to actually come in to see us, and officials are working closely with Caerphilly council. The Member will be aware that we're looking at establishing a working group within the area to look at the various concerns of residents and difficulties around particularly Hafodyrynys and the particular exceedances there. That working group will involve NRW, Public Health Wales and also, hopefully, Caerphilly council. I'm happy to keep the Member updated on that as it progresses.
Welsh: Diolch i'r Aelod am ei chwestiynau. Rwy'n gwybod bod hwn yn faes yr ydym wedi ei drafod o'r blaen ac rwy'n gyfarwydd â'ch pryderon. Heblaw am Gaerdydd, gwyddom fod Caerffili i Hafodyrynys yn ardal â gormodiant a chyflwynwyd cyfarwyddeb iddi i ddod i'n gweld ni, ac mae swyddogion yn gweithio'n agos gyda chyngor Caerffili. Bydd yr Aelod yn ymwybodol ein bod yn ystyried sefydlu gweithgor o fewn yr ardal i edrych ar bryderon amrywiol y trigolion ac anawsterau yn arbennig o amgylch Hafodyrynys a'r gormodiannau sydd yno. Bydd y gweithgor yn cynnwys Cyfoeth Naturiol Cymru, Iechyd Cyhoeddus Cymru a hefyd, gobeithio, Gyngor Caerffili. Rwy'n hapus i roi'r wybodaeth ddiweddaraf i'r Aelod wrth i bethau ddatblygu.
English: I'm glad that was just one moment - I wouldn't have wanted to have to give you more moments. [ Laughter.] Minister.
Welsh: Rwy'n falch mai dim ond un eiliad oedd honna - fyddwn i ddim wedi dymuno gorfod rhoi mwy o eiliadau ichi [ Chwerthin.] Gweinidog.
English: Thank you, Deputy Presiding Officer. The Member raises a number of important points there in terms of incentivising people and, actually, the importance of working in parallel that is open to us, tackling poor air quality to reduce emissions, reducing speeds without actually looking at how we use modern technology to support that modal shift in transport and electric vehicles. I look forward to - I'm sure the Member's going to chart his journey on Twitter and social media for us, and I wish him good luck with it.
Welsh: Diolch ichi, Dirprwy Lywydd. Mae'r Aelod yn codi nifer o bwyntiau pwysig o ran cymell pobl ac, mewn gwirionedd, ynglŷn â phwysigrwydd gweithio ochr yn ochr sy'n agored i ni, i fynd i'r afael ag ansawdd aer gwael i leihau allyriadau, lleihau cyflymderau heb edrych mewn gwirionedd ar sut y defnyddiwn dechnoleg fodern i gefnogi'r newid moddol mewn trafnidiaeth a cherbydau trydan. Edrychaf ymlaen at - rwy'n sicr bod yr Aelod yn mynd i gofnodi ei daith ar Twitter ac ar gyfryngau cymdeithasol i ni, a dymunaf bob lwc iddo.
English: Thank you, Minister. Thank you.
Welsh: Diolch, Gweinidog. Diolch.
English: The next item is a statement by the Minister for Culture, Tourism and Sport: accessible monuments for all.
Welsh: Yr eitem nesaf yw datganiad gan y Gweinidog Diwylliant, Twristiaeth a Chwaraeon: henebion hygyrch i bawb. Galwaf -
English: Thank you, Deputy Presiding Officer, and thank you for that statement.
Welsh: Diolch, Dirprwy Lywydd, a diolch hefyd am y datganiad yna.
