English: Thank you. I'm thrilled to be able to contribute to this debate. I'm actually enjoying my time on the Petitions Committee, because I've been surprised, really, just how many people do take that Petitions Committee seriously and actually feel that they can engage with the democratic process here. But I have to say, one of the best evidence sessions of any committees that I've been on in the two terms that I've been an Assembly Member was certainly this one, because it was a real eye-opener, and it is was a delight to meet so many impassioned and inspirational young activists from Whizz-Kidz, and not only to hear their stories, but, actually, with the video that they provided, and the engagement that we had with them, the conversations we had informally and then formally, through the evidence that they submitted to committee - it was fantastic. Now, this petition seeks to ensure that disabled people are able to access public transport, and for me, that means all methods of public transport, when required and without the need to plan assistance 24 hours or even more in advance. I think it's safe to say that we can all agree that, in this day and age, such an ambition shouldn't just be perhaps achievable, it should be a given. I note the acceptance of the Welsh Government of all the recommendations we have set out in this report, but I would further like to press the Cabinet Secretary for a little more clarification and detail on a number of points. Would you outline how the Welsh Government might work to examine the feasibility of supporting the use of an orange wallet-style assistance scheme in taxis and private hire vehicles in Wales, in addition to looking at this for bus services? In fact, I think we should have some kind - without putting any discrimination on or labelling people, I do think that, if there is a belief in an orange wallet-style assistance scheme in taxis, private hire vehicles, buses and trains, then we should be looking at that. How will you work with interest groups and operators to develop training for customer-facing staff under the new Wales and borders franchise to ensure that disabled people will be able to just turn up and go on railway services in Wales in the future? What does the Cabinet Secretary estimate the cost will be for this development and the undertaking of accessibility awareness training for bus drivers across Wales, as noted in the report, and his acceptance? How much of this is intended to be provided by the Welsh Government and how much by the bus services support grant? Finally, the importance of audio and visual announcement systems on public transport was stressed by practically everybody in our evidence sessions, and I have to tell you, whilst this is to do with a petition now for disabled access, I find it difficult, especially at nights when the trains are dark and things. Sometimes the announcements aren't easy, so if I struggle, then it should be an absolute given that people can actually hear and see exactly where they are, and when they need to depart the train, so that, again, they can be prepared, and so that there's no risk of accident. What did worry me in a lot of the evidence we took was not so much how inconvenient it was to access public transport, but that they felt that it was dangerous on occasion, and that they felt a nuisance. They felt unsafe as well at times, and I think that's a sad indictment, really, when you think how we are able to get around so easily. Bus service operators assured us during evidence that they ensure that they will acquire into their new vehicles audio and visible announcement systems. But I really want you to work with the industry, Cabinet Secretary, to ensure that this becomes a reality. You mentioned utilising the support and the financial resource that we have, and I wonder what commitment you are able to make today. Accessibility to public transport for all must be a right, not a privilege, and is essential to working towards a more prosperous and greener Wales. I welcome and I applaud the tenacity and determination of the young petitioners in bringing this issue to the fore of the agenda here in the National Assembly for Wales. I hope that easy use of public transport will be universal here by the end of this Assembly term. Well done to everybody who presented and brought their evidence to us from Whizz-Kidz. Thank you.
Welsh: Diolch. Rwyf wrth fy modd yn gallu cyfrannu at y ddadl. Mewn gwirionedd, rwy'n mwynhau fy amser ar y Pwyllgor Deisebau, oherwydd rwyf wedi cael fy synnu, mewn gwirionedd, faint yn union o bobl sydd o ddifrif ynglŷn â Pwyllgor Deisebau ac yn teimlo y gallant gymryd rhan yn y broses ddemocrataidd yma. Ond rhaid imi ddweud, roedd hon yn sicr yn un o'r sesiynau tystiolaeth gorau o unrhyw bwyllgorau y bûm arnynt yn ystod y ddau dymor y bûm yn Aelod Cynulliad, oherwydd roedd yn agoriad llygad go iawn, ac roedd hi'n bleser cyfarfod â chymaint o ymgyrchwyr ifanc angerddol ac ysbrydoledig o Whizz-Kidz, ac nid yn unig i glywed eu straeon, ond gyda'r fideo a ddarparwyd ganddynt, a'r ymgysylltiad a gawsom gyda hwy, y sgyrsiau a gawsom yn anffurfiol ac yna'n ffurfiol, drwy'r dystiolaeth a gyflwynwyd ganddynt i'r pwyllgor - roedd yn wych. Nawr, mae'r ddeiseb hon yn ceisio sicrhau bod pobl anabl yn gallu defnyddio trafnidiaeth gyhoeddus, ac i mi, mae hynny'n golygu pob math o drafnidiaeth gyhoeddus pryd bynnag y bo'i hangen a heb yr angen i gynllunio cymorth 24 awr, neu fwy hyd yn oed, ymlaen llaw. Credaf ei bod yn ddiogel dweud y gallwn i gyd gytuno, yn yr oes hon, y dylai uchelgais o'r fath fod nid yn unig yn gyraeddadwy, ond yn rhywbeth i'w gymryd yn ganiataol. Nodaf fod Llywodraeth Cymru wedi derbyn yr holl argymhellion a nodwyd gennym yn yr adroddiad hwn, ond hoffwn bwyso ymhellach ar Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet am ychydig mwy o eglurhad a manylion ar nifer o bwyntiau. A wnewch chi amlinellu sut y gallai Llywodraeth Cymru weithio i edrych ar ddichonoldeb cefnogi'r defnydd o gynllun tebyg i gynllun cymorth waled oren mewn tacsis a cherbydau hurio preifat yng Nghymru, yn ogystal ag edrych ar hyn ar gyfer gwasanaethau bysiau? Mewn gwirionedd, credaf y dylem gael rhyw fath o - heb fynd i wahaniaethu rhwng pobl neu eu labelu, rwy'n credu, os oes ffydd mewn cynllun tebyg i'r cynllun cymorth waled oren mewn tacsis, cerbydau hurio preifat, bysiau a threnau, yna dylem fod yn edrych ar hynny. Sut y byddwch yn gweithio gyda grwpiau diddordeb a gweithredwyr i ddatblygu hyfforddiant ar gyfer staff sy'n ymdrin â chwsmeriaid o dan fasnachfraint newydd Cymru a'r gororau newydd i sicrhau y bydd pobl anabl yn gallu defnyddio gwasanaethau trenau pryd bynnag y bo'u hangen yng Nghymru yn y dyfodol? Beth yw amcangyfrif Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet o'r gost ar gyfer y datblygiad hwn ac ymgymryd â hyfforddiant ymwybyddiaeth o hygyrchedd ar gyfer gyrwyr bysiau ledled Cymru, fel y nodwyd yn yr adroddiad, a'i dderbyniad? Faint o hyn y bwriedir i Lywodraeth Cymru ei ddarparu a faint gan y grant cynnal gwasanaethau bysiau? Yn olaf, pwysleisiodd bron bawb yn ein sesiynau tystiolaeth bwysigrwydd systemau cyhoeddiadau clyweledol ar drafnidiaeth gyhoeddus, ac mae'n rhaid i mi ddweud wrthych, er bod hyn yn ymwneud â deiseb ar gyfer mynediad i bobl anabl yn awr, rwy'n ei chael hi'n anodd, yn enwedig gyda'r nos pan fo'r trenau'n dywyll a phethau. Weithiau nid yw'r cyhoeddiadau'n hawdd, felly os wyf fi'n cael trafferth, yna yn bendant dylai pobl allu clywed a gweld yn union ble y maent, a phryd y bydd angen iddynt adael y trên, er mwyn sicrhau, unwaith eto, y gallant fod yn barod, ac felly nad oes unrhyw berygl o ddamwain. Yr hyn oedd yn fy mhoeni mewn llawer o'r dystiolaeth a gafwyd oedd nid yn gymaint pa mor anghyfleus oedd hi i gael mynediad at drafnidiaeth gyhoeddus, ond eu bod yn teimlo ei fod yn beryglus ar adegau, a'u bod yn teimlo'n niwsans. Roeddent yn teimlo'n anniogel ar adegau hefyd, a chredaf fod hynny'n adlewyrchiad trist, mewn gwirionedd, pan feddyliwch sut y gallwn ni symud o gwmpas mor hawdd. Cawsom ein sicrhau gan weithredwyr gwasanaethau bysiau wrth iddynt roi tystiolaeth eu bod yn sicrhau y byddant yn caffael systemau cyhoeddiadau clyweledol ar eu cerbydau newydd. Ond rwyf am i chi weithio gyda'r diwydiant, Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet, i sicrhau bod hyn yn cael ei wireddu. Fe sonioch am ddefnyddio'r gefnogaeth a'r adnoddau ariannol sydd gennym, a tybed pa ymrwymiad y gallwch ei wneud heddiw. Rhaid i fynediad at drafnidiaeth gyhoeddus ar gyfer pawb fod yn hawl, nid yn fraint, ac mae'n hanfodol ar gyfer gweithio tuag at Gymru fwy ffyniannus a mwy gwyrdd. Rwy'n croesawu ac yn cymeradwyo dycnwch a phenderfyniad y deisebwyr ifanc yn dwyn y mater hwn i frig yr agenda yma yng Nghynulliad Cenedlaethol Cymru. Gobeithiaf y bydd defnydd hawdd o drafnidiaeth gyhoeddus yn rhywbeth sy'n digwydd ym mhobman erbyn diwedd tymor y Cynulliad hwn. Da iawn bawb a gyflwynodd dystiolaeth i ni gan Whizz-Kidz. Diolch.
