English: Thank you very much for raising these issues. I will certainly join you in congratulating those young people for the actions that they took over the weekend in the face of what I think was a particularly senseless and insensitive act with regard to the 'Cofiwch Dryweryn' memorial. I would certainly say that Cadw, I think, has looked in the past at whether or not it should be a listed structure, and I know that even being a listed structure wouldn't prevent this kind of thing from happening again. But I know that Welsh Government would be keen to have some discussions with Llanrhystud Community Council and any other interested parties in terms of what we could do to better protect the site in future. On the issue you raised regarding the Kurdish citizens of Wales, I can confirm that the international relations Minister did bring this matter up with the Turkish ambassador just last week, and perhaps she will be able to write to you with some more confirmation of those conversations that took place. On the issue of discrimination, clearly, we would oppose discrimination wherever it takes place, and, certainly, organisations and businesses would have a responsibility to ensure that their staff always act in a manner that is very much within the letter and the spirit of all equalities legislation, and I would be concerned to hear of any examples where that wasn't taking place. On the matter of the care strategy, I know that you'll have the opportunity to raise these concerns in health questions, which will be taking place tomorrow.
Welsh: Diolch yn fawr iawn am godi'r materion hyn. Yn sicr, rwy'n ymuno â chi i longyfarch y bobl ifanc hynny am y gweithredu dros y penwythnos yn wyneb yr hyn yr wyf yn ei gredu oedd yn weithred arbennig o ddisynnwyr a dideimlad ynglŷn â'r gofeb 'Cofiwch Dryweryn'. Byddwn yn sicr yn dweud bod Cadw, rwy'n credu, wedi edrych yn y gorffennol i weld a ddylai fod yn strwythur rhestredig ai peidio, a gwn na fyddai bod yn strwythur rhestredig hyd yn oed yn atal y math hwn o beth rhag digwydd eto. Ond gwn y byddai Llywodraeth Cymru yn awyddus i gael trafodaethau gyda Chyngor Cymuned Llanrhystud ac unrhyw bartïon eraill â diddordeb ynghylch yr hyn y gallem ei wneud i warchod y safle yn well yn y dyfodol. Ar y mater a godwyd gennych am ddinasyddion Cwrdaidd yng Nghymru, gallaf gadarnhau bod y Gweinidog cysylltiadau rhyngwladol wedi codi'r mater hwn gyda llysgennad Twrci yr wythnos diwethaf, ac efallai y bydd hi'n gallu ysgrifennu atoch gyda mwy o gadarnhad ynghylch y sgyrsiau hynny a gafodd hi. Ar y mater gwahaniaethu, yn amlwg, byddem ni'n gwrthwynebu gwahaniaethu lle bynnag y bo hynny'n digwydd. Ac, yn sicr, byddai gan sefydliadau a busnesau gyfrifoldeb i sicrhau bod eu staff yn ymddwyn mewn ffordd sy'n cadw at lythyren ac ysbryd y ddeddfwriaeth gydraddoldeb i raddau helaeth bob amser, a byddwn yn pryderu o glywed am unrhyw enghreifftiau lle nad oedd hynny'n digwydd. Ar y mater strategaeth gofal, gwn y bydd gennych gyfle i godi'r pryderon hyn yn y cwestiynau iechyd a fydd yn digwydd yfory.
English: I would like to raise two issues and ask for two statements. Firstly, can we have a statement from the economy and transport Minister regarding road safety on the M4 between junction 44, which is in my constituency, and junction 46, which I believe is in the Minister's? There have been a large number of accidents, and locals have said about water drainage and the road surface in that area. Secondly, can I return to the job losses at Virgin Media call centre in Swansea? In January, you told me that the first tranche of those staff did leave in November and there were a further two phases planned for this year. Virgin Media's outplacement support team has taken on responsibility for providing staff with on-site access to key partners of our Welsh Government taskforce, including Careers Wales, the Department for Work and Pensions and local employers. The jobs fair in October took place on the Virgin Media site and there are further job fairs planned to coincide with the initial tranches of staff who will be leaving. So, those further jobs fairs will be timed in relation to those further tranches of people who will be leaving the company. Can we now have a Government statement, or can you make a response and provide a further update on what is happening there, which affects your constituency, Julie James's, mine and many others?
Welsh: Hoffwn godi dau fater a gofyn am ddau ddatganiad. Yn gyntaf, a gawn ni ddatganiad gan y Gweinidog economi a thrafnidiaeth ynghylch diogelwch ar y ffyrdd ar yr M4 rhwng cyffordd 44, sydd yn fy etholaeth i, a chyffordd 46 sydd, rwy'n credu, yn etholaeth y Gweinidog? Mae nifer fawr o ddamweiniau wedi digwydd, ac mae'r bobl leol wedi sôn am ddraenio dŵr ac wyneb y ffordd yn yr ardal honno. Yn ail, a gaf i fynd yn ôl at y swyddi sy'n cael eu colli yng nghanolfan alwadau Virgin Media yn Abertawe? Ym mis Ionawr, fe ddywedasoch chi wrthyf fod y gyfran gyntaf o staff hynny wedi gadael ym mis Tachwedd a bod dau gam arall wedi eu cynllunio ar gyfer y flwyddyn hon. Mae tîm cymorth all-leoli Virgin Media wedi cymryd y cyfrifoldeb o ddarparu mynediad ar gyfer staff ar y safle i bartneriaid allweddol tasglu Llywodraeth Cymru, gan gynnwys Gyrfa Cymru, yr Adran Gwaith a Phensiynau a chyflogwyr lleol. Cynhaliwyd ffair swyddi ar safle Virgin Media ym mis Hydref a chynlluniwyd rhagor o ffeiriau swyddi i gyd-fynd â'r cyfrannau cychwynnol o staff fydd yn gadael. Felly, bydd y ffeiriau swyddi eraill hynny yn cael eu hamseru i gyd-fynd â'r cyfrannau eraill o bobl a fydd yn gadael y cwmni. A gawn ni ddatganiad gan y Llywodraeth nawr, neu a allwch chi ymateb a rhoi rhagor o wybodaeth ar yr hyn sy'n digwydd yno, sy'n effeithio ar eich etholaeth chi, Julie James, ar fy etholaeth innau, a llawer o rai eraill?
English: Thank you very much for raising both of these issues. Certainly, there is concern over the accidents that have recently taken place between junctions 44 and 46 on the motorway, and, certainly, I was very sorry indeed to hear about the recent fatal accident that occurred at junction 45, and, clearly, we would want to pass on our sympathies to the family of the person involved. Ensuring safety on our road network is our primary concern here, and officials are currently awaiting the police's detailed report and investigation into that particular collision. I can say that maintenance work is planned on this section of the M4 between junctions 45 and 46 - eastbound and westbound carriageways - and programming of work will depend on prioritisation and the availability of funding. But in the meantime, our agent will continue to inspect the section on a regular basis and repair safety-related defects as and when they arise. On the matter of Virgin Media and the job losses, I don't have much further to add to that information that you have given us this afternoon, other than to confirm that the further two phases of redundancies will be planned for later this year, and we will have those jobs fairs to coincide with those leaving dates. I know that Mike Hedges and Julie James and others are very closely involved in this issue and talking to the workforce, and so, it would be useful to know of any other additional issues that are outstanding that Welsh Government might be able to help with.
Welsh: Diolch yn fawr iawn am godi'r ddau fater hyn. Yn sicr, mae pryder ynghylch y damweiniau sydd wedi digwydd yn ddiweddar rhwng cyffordd 44 a 46 ar y draffordd, ac, yn sicr, roedd yn ddrwg calon gen i glywed am y ddamwain angheuol a ddigwyddodd yn ddiweddar ar gyffordd 45, ac, yn amlwg, byddem yn dymuno cydymdeimlo â theulu'r unigolyn dan sylw. Sicrhau diogelwch ar ein rhwydwaith ffyrdd yw ein prif bryder yn y fan hon, ac mae swyddogion yn aros am adroddiad manwl ac ymchwiliad yr heddlu ynghylch y gwrthdrawiad penodol hwnnw ar hyn o bryd. Gallaf ddweud bod gwaith cynnal a chadw wedi ei gynllunio ar y rhan hon o'r M4 rhwng cyffyrdd 45 a 46 - ar y ffyrdd tua'r dwyrain a thua'r gorllewin - a bydd rhaglennu'r gwaith yn dibynnu ar flaenoriaethu a'r arian fydd ar gael. Ond yn y cyfamser, bydd ein hasiant yn parhau i arolygu'r rhan hon o'r briffordd yn rheolaidd gan atgyweirio diffygion sy'n ymwneud â diogelwch fel y byddan nhw'n codi. Ynghylch mater Virgin Media a'r swyddi sy'n cael eu colli, nid oes gen i lawer mwy i'w ychwanegu at yr wybodaeth yr ydych chi wedi ei rhoi inni y prynhawn yma. Ond gallaf gadarnhau y bwriedir cael dau gam o ddiswyddiadau pellach yn ddiweddarach eleni, ac y byddwn yn cynnal y ffeiriau swyddi hynny fel eu bod nhw'n cyd-fynd â'r dyddiadau gadael hynny. Gwn fod Mike Hedges a Julie James ac eraill yn ymwneud yn agos iawn â'r mater hwn ac yn siarad â'r gweithlu, ac felly, byddai'n ddefnyddiol gwybod am unrhyw faterion ychwanegol eraill sydd angen sylw y gallai Llywodraeth Cymru fod yn gallu helpu gyda nhw.
English: Organiser, could we have two statements, please? One in relation to the Welsh Government-proposed and Vale of Glamorgan Council-proposed new road from Sycamore Cross to the M4 in Miskin. We've had a change of Government, I would suggest - not a change of party, but a change of Government - with a new Minister and a new First Minister, and it would be interesting, certainly for residents in the area affected to know whether there has been any change of policy in the transport plan, because, obviously, we're conscious that the new deputy Minister is road averse, I would suggest, and residents would like to understand if there's any change in planning, and indeed, change of planning and the support that might come from Welsh Government to pay for this project. And, secondly, could we have a statement from the Minister for rural affairs in relation to her consultation around Lucy's Law, i.e. third-party puppy sales? This is an area of great debate across Wales. Most local authorities have endorsed the proposal around Lucy's Law. Those who haven't, I'm confidently told, will be coming on board shortly. I do understand that the Minister is proposing to bring a consultation forward. To date, that consultation hasn't come into the public domain yet, so an understanding of how that might proceed in the near future would be very welcome indeed.
Welsh: Trefnydd, a gawn ni ddau ddatganiad, os gwelwch yn dda? Un ohonynt mewn cysylltiad â ffordd newydd sydd wedi ei chynnig gan Lywodraeth Cymru a Chyngor Bro Morgannwg rhwng Sycamore Cross a'r M4 ym Meisgyn. Rydym wedi cael newid Llywodraeth, byddwn i'n awgrymu - nid newid plaid, ond newid Llywodraeth - gyda Gweinidog newydd a Phrif Weinidog newydd, a byddai'n ddiddorol i drigolion yr ardal yr effeithir arni yn sicr pe byddai modd cael gwybod a oes unrhyw newid polisi yn y cynllun trafnidiaeth. Oherwydd, yn amlwg, rydym yn ymwybodol bod y dirprwy Weinidog newydd, byddwn i'n awgrymu, yn wrthwynebus i ffyrdd, a byddai'r trigolion yn hoffi deall a oes unrhyw newid o ran cynllunio, ac yn wir, newid i'r cynllunio a'r cymorth a allai ddod gan Lywodraeth Cymru er mwyn talu am y prosiect hwn. Ac, yn ail, a gawn ni ddatganiad gan y Gweinidog dros faterion gwledig mewn cysylltiad â'i hymgynghoriad ynghylch Cyfraith Lucy, hynny yw, gwerthu cŵn bach trydydd parti? Mae hyn yn destun dadl fawr ledled Cymru. Mae'r rhan fwyaf o'r awdurdodau lleol wedi cefnogi'r cynnig sy'n ymwneud â Chyfraith Lucy. Dywedir wrthyf yn hyderus y bydd y rhai nad ydyn nhw wedi ei gefnogi yn dod i gytundeb arno cyn bo hir. Deallaf fod y Gweinidog yn bwriadu cyflwyno ymgynghoriad. Hyd yma, nid yw'r ymgynghoriad hwnnw wedi dod i sylw'r cyhoedd, felly byddai dealltwriaeth o sut y gallai hynny fynd rhagddo yn y dyfodol yn cael ei chroesawu yn fawr iawn.
English: Thank you very much for those questions. On the issue of the new road in Miskin, I think perhaps it might be most appropriate for you to write to the Minister with responsibility for transport to get the clarity that you're seeking on behalf of your constituents there. And on the issue of Lucy's Law, I'll certainly have a conversation with the Minister to explore when further detail on that consultation and any proposed actions following it might be forthcoming.
Welsh: Diolch yn fawr iawn am y cwestiynau hynny. Ar fater y ffordd newydd ym Meisgyn, rwy'n credu efallai mai'r peth mwyaf priodol i'w wneud fyddai ichi ysgrifennu at y Gweinidog sy'n gyfrifol am drafnidiaeth er mwyn cael yr eglurder yr ydych yn ei geisio ar ran eich etholwyr yn y fan honno. Ac ynghylch mater Cyfraith Lucy, byddaf yn sicr yn cael sgwrs gyda'r Gweinidog i gael gwybod pryd y cawn ragor o fanylion ynghylch yr ymgynghoriad hwnnw ac unrhyw gamau arfaethedig sy'n ei ddilyn.
English: Thank you for raising these issues. On the first, I don't think I can add anything further to that which was in both of the answers to the written questions to Adam Price. I've seen the answers myself, and I know that there is the intention, as you say, for Shan Morgan to write to Adam Price in response to his queries as well. I'll certainly explore the issue you've raised about transparency in relation to the Welsh language standards, with regard to the senior civil service particularly, and I will write to you with further information.
Welsh: Diolch am godi'r materion hyn. Ynghylch y cyntaf, nid wyf yn credu y gallaf ychwanegu unrhyw beth at yr hyn a oedd yn y ddau ateb i'r cwestiynau ysgrifenedig i Adam Price. Rwyf wedi gweld yr atebion fy hun, a gwn ei fod yn fwriad, fel y dywedwch, i Shan Morgan ysgrifennu at Adam Price mewn ymateb i'w ymholiadau yntau hefyd. Byddaf yn sicr yn archwilio'r mater yr ydych wedi ei godi ynghylch tryloywder mewn cysylltiad â safonau'r Gymraeg, o ran yr uwch wasanaeth sifil yn arbennig, a byddaf yn ysgrifennu atoch gyda rhagor o wybodaeth.
English: Leader of the house, last Saturday I attended a meeting of the Neath Port Talbot 1950s Women - make sure I get that terminology right. It was a packed meeting, with over 400 in attendance. Now, I appreciate that pensions, and this issue in particular, is a Westminster matter, but the consequences actually come in devolved competencies. If we have women who are no longer able to retire at the time they thought, and they have caring responsibilities, where are those caring responsibilities going to lie? They will rely on services offered within Wales. So, there are many issues that actually are within our devolved competencies. It's important that we get fair deals for these women, and I declare an interest, Llywydd as I have family members - I won't name them, in case I get shot when I go home - who are in that bracket. But it is important that we are seeing many, many women disadvantaged to the level where they may not be able to finish work simply because they could not afford to finish work. They may have other responsibilities, which puts an added pressure upon them. It is time now we do as much as we can to help them. Can you give a statement from the Welsh Government as to what action it has taken to raise these issues with the UK Government, to ensure that Welsh citizens who are in this bracket are actually going to be benefiting from the deals? There are various deals being discussed, but they deserve what they expected, and that is a pension from the state at the age of 60.
Welsh: Arweinydd y Tŷ, ddydd Sadwrn diwethaf roeddwn i mewn cyfarfod o Fenywod Castell-nedd Port Talbot yr 1950au - gan wneud yn siŵr fod y derminoleg honno'n gywir gennyf i. Roedd yn llawn dop yn y cyfarfod, gyda dros 400 yn bresennol. Nawr, rwy'n sylweddoli mai mater i San Steffan yw pensiynau, a'r mater hwn yn benodol, ond mae'r canlyniadau yn digwydd mewn gwirionedd yn y cymwyseddau datganoledig. Os oes gennym ni fenywod na allant bellach ymddeol pryd yr oedden nhw wedi bwriadu gwneud, ac mae ganddyn nhw gyfrifoldebau gofalu, pwy fydd yn gyfrifol am y cyfrifoldebau gofalu hynny? Byddan nhw'n dibynnu ar y gwasanaethau a gynigir yng Nghymru. Felly, mae nifer o faterion sydd mewn gwirionedd o fewn ein cymwyseddau datganoledig. Mae'n bwysig inni gael bargen deg ar gyfer menywod hyn, ac rwy'n datgan diddordeb yma, Llywydd, gan fod gennyf fi aelodau o'm teulu i - ni fyddaf yn eu henwi nhw, rhag ofn y caf fy saethu pan af i adref - sydd yn y sefyllfa honno. Ond mae'n bwysig ein bod yn sylweddoli bod llawer iawn o fenywod yn cael cam i'r fath raddau fel na fyddan nhw'n gallu gadael eu gwaith oherwydd na allan nhw fforddio i adael eu gwaith. Gall fod ganddyn nhw gyfrifoldebau eraill, sy'n rhoi pwysau ychwanegol arnyn nhw. Mae'n bryd i ni nawr wneud cymaint ag y gallwn i'w helpu nhw. A wnewch chi roi datganiad gan Lywodraeth Cymru ynghylch pa gamau a gymerwyd i godi'r materion hyn gyda Llywodraeth y DU, i sicrhau y bydd dinasyddion Cymru sydd yn y sefyllfa hon yn elwa mewn gwirionedd ar y cytundebau? Mae cytundebau amrywiol yn cael eu trafod, ond maen nhw'n haeddu'r hyn yr oedden nhw'n ei ddisgwyl, a hynny yw pensiwn gan y wladwriaeth yn 60 oed.
English: Thank you very much for raising this issue. As you say, pension matters are not devolved, but the impact that it's having on the women concerned is very much a concern for Welsh Government. Welsh Government has written to the UK Government to express our concerns about the impact that the pension Acts of 1995 and 2011 are disproportionately having on women who have had their state pension age raised significantly, without effective or sufficient notification. And, as you say, many women in this particular age group have worked in part-time jobs, often low-paid jobs, taken time off work to look after children and elderly relatives, and have also been subject to gender inequality in terms of pay for most of their working lives. So, it's clearly a great unfairness that is being done to this particular cohort of women. As I say, we've already written to the UK Government on this, but you've raised it here in the Chamber, and I'd be certainly pleased to do so again.
Welsh: Diolch yn fawr iawn i chi am godi'r mater hwn. Fel y dywedwch, nid yw materion pensiwn wedi cael eu datganoli, ond mae'r effaith a gaiff hyn ar y menywod dan sylw yn ofid mawr i Lywodraeth Cymru heb unrhyw amheuaeth. Mae Llywodraeth Cymru wedi ysgrifennu at Lywodraeth y DU i fynegi ein pryderon ynghylch yr effaith anghymesur a gaiff Deddfau pensiwn 1995 a 2011 ar fenywod sydd wedi gweld yr oedran y byddan nhw'n cael pensiwn gan y wladwriaeth yn cael ei godi'n sylweddol, heb rybudd effeithiol na digonol. Ac, fel y dywedwch, mae llawer o fenywod yn y grŵp oedran arbennig hwn wedi gweithio mewn swyddi rhan-amser, swyddi ar gyflog isel yn aml, ac wedi cymryd amser i ffwrdd o'r gwaith i ofalu am blant a pherthnasau oedrannus, a hefyd wedi gweld anghydraddoldeb rhwng y rhywiau o ran cyflog am y rhan fwyaf o'u gyrfa. Felly, mae'n amlwg mai annhegwch mawr yw'r hyn sy'n cael ei wneud i'r garfan arbennig hon o fenywod. Fel y dywedaf, rydym eisoes wedi ysgrifennu at Lywodraeth y DU ar y mater hwn, ond rydych chi wedi ei godi yma yn y Siambr, ac yn sicr byddwn i fy hunan yn hapus i godi hynny unwaith eto.
English: The next item is the statement by the Minister for Housing and Local Government on homelessness and rough-sleeping. I call on the Minister to make her statement - Julie James.
Welsh: Yr eitem nesaf yw'r datganiad gan y Gweinidog Tai a Llywodraeth leol ar ddigartrefedd a chysgu allan. Dwi'n galw ar y Gweinidog i wneud ei datganiad - Julie James.
English: First, can I welcome the ministerial statement? Can I also welcome some of the comments made by colleagues earlier? I especially welcome distinguishing between homelessness and rough-sleeping. Homelessness includes those of no fixed abode who sofa-surf thanks to the kindness of friends and family, but in many cases they are just one night away from sleeping rough. There are also those who are inadequately housed in overcrowded accommodation, often staying with family or friends, and are neither homeless nor rough-sleepers but need different accommodation. And that, sadly, includes children. There are a number of hostels that do a good job but some individuals would prefer the street to the hostels for all sorts of personal reasons, which I know the Minister is well aware of. Does the Minister agree with me that the only way we are going to reduce homelessness and rough-sleeping is by building council houses in sufficient numbers to meet demand, providing support to get the homeless and rough-sleepers into permanent accommodation, ending no-fault evictions, and developing co-operative housing initiatives?
Welsh: Yn gyntaf, a gaf i groesawu datganiad y Gweinidog? A gaf i groesawu hefyd rai o'r sylwadau a wnaeth cyd-Aelodau yn gynharach? Rwy'n croesawu yn arbennig y gwahaniaethu rhwng digartrefedd a chysgu allan. Mae digartrefedd yn cynnwys y rhai sydd heb gartref sefydlog sy'n symud rhwng y naill soffa a'r llall drwy garedigrwydd teulu a ffrindiau, ond mewn llawer o achosion maen nhw o fewn un noson i fod yn cysgu allan. Ceir rhai hefyd mewn cartrefi anaddas a'r llety'n orlawn, yn aros gyda theulu neu ffrindiau'n aml, ac nid ydyn nhw'n ddigartref nac yn cysgu allan ond mae angen llety amgen arnyn nhw. Ac mae hynny, yn anffodus, yn cynnwys plant. Ceir nifer o hosteli sy'n gwneud gwaith da ond byddai'n well gan rai unigolion fod ar y stryd na mewn hostel am resymau personol o bob math, a gwn fod y Gweinidog yn ymwybodol iawn o hynny. A yw'r Gweinidog yn cytuno â mi mai'r unig ffordd y gallwn ni leihau digartrefedd a chysgu allan yw drwy adeiladu digon o dai cyngor i fodloni'r galw, gan roi cymorth i ddod â'r digartref a'r rhai sy'n cysgu allan i gartref parhaol, gan roi'r gorau i droi pobl allan yn ddi-fai, a datblygu mentrau tai cydweithredol?
English: Item 4 on the agenda this afternoon is a statement by the Minister for Finance and Trefnydd: update on the Welsh mutual investment model. I call on the Minister for Finance and Trefnydd - Rebecca Evans.
Welsh: Eitem 4 ar yr agenda y prynhawn yma yw datganiad gan y Gweinidog Cyllid a'r Trefnydd: y wybodaeth ddiweddaraf am fodel buddsoddi cydfuddiannol Cymru. Galwaf ar y Gweinidog Cyllid a'r Trefnydd - Rebecca Evans.
