English: Yes, she's absolutely right, Merthyr Valleys Homes have done some sterling work in a range of innovative ways and it just demonstrates that the innovative housing programme is not the only innovation that we're looking at, because they've done a lot of that with mainstream social housing grant and so on. So lots of things are possible. Dawn Bowden's absolutely right, what we're looking to have is a strategy overall that sucks in the innovation and spreads it out as fast as we can go. So, a lot of the skills transfer that you talked about there, getting people to take an interest in the houses that they're building, because they might be living in them themselves - the tenant voice in all of that is really important. They've done some really interesting work around mutuals and co-operatives and so on, which I'm really interested in exploring further with them. But it's just a demonstration that the IHP programme is just one part of the innovative nature of the way that we're approaching our housing strategy, because we need to build every sort of home for every sort of tenure, at pace and scale, if we're to address the needs that we know our population has. I was delighted in my statement to announce one of the innovative housing programmes, which is around a modular house building programme that allows you to add a bedroom, because we do have a big need for one-bedroomed homes - that's absolutely right, and we need to build those at pace and scale - but people's circumstances change. They may not stay single forever, they may need care, they may need family or friends to visit and so on, so a one-bedroomed house for a single person is not necessarily what people are looking for. So, trying to build the houses that allow people to have the lifestyle that they want, to have a friend to stay, to have a carer, grandchild or putative future partner move in - we want people to be able to have a lifetime home. These kinds of modular houses that allow you to add a bedroom or a different module on it are excellent, and we need to look to them for the future.
Welsh: Ie, mae hi'n hollol gywir, mae Cartrefi Cymoedd Merthyr wedi gwneud gwaith rhagorol mewn amryw o ffyrdd arloesol ac mae hynny'n dangos yn eglur nad y Rhaglen dai arloesol yw'r unig beth arloesol yr ydym ni'n ei ystyried, oherwydd maent wedi gwneud llawer o'r hyn a wnaethon nhw gyda grant tai cymdeithasol prif ffrwd ac yn y blaen. Felly mae llawer o bethau yn bosibl. Mae Dawn Bowden yn llygad ei lle, yr hyn yr ydym ni'n ystyried ei chael yw strategaeth gyffredinol sy'n amsugno'r arloesedd ac yn ei gwasgaru mor gyflym ag y gallwn ni. Gan hynny, mae llawer o'r trosglwyddo sgiliau yr ydych chi newydd sôn amdano, gan gael pobl i gymryd diddordeb yn y tai y maen nhw'n eu hadeiladu, oherwydd y gallen nhw eu hunain fod yn byw ynddyn nhw - mae llais y deiliad yn hynny i gyd yn bwysig iawn. Maen nhw wedi gwneud gwaith diddorol iawn yn ymwneud â chwmnïau cydfuddiannol a chydweithredol ac yn y blaen, ac mae gennyf ddiddordeb ymchwilio i hyn gyda nhw. Ond dyna ddangos mai dim ond un rhan o natur arloesol y ffordd yr ydym ni'n mynd i'r afael â'n strategaeth dai ni yw'r Rhaglen tai arloesol. Mae angen adeiladu pob math o gartrefi ar gyfer pob math o ddeiliadaeth, yn gyflym ac ar raddfa fawr, os ydym yn bwriadu ateb yr anghenion y gwyddom sydd gan ein poblogaeth ni. Roeddwn i'n falch tu hwnt i gyhoeddi yn fy natganiad un o'r rhaglenni tai arloesol, sy'n ymwneud â rhaglen adeiladu tai modiwlar sy'n caniatáu ichi ychwanegu ystafell wely. Mae angen mawr am gartrefi un ystafell wely - mae hynny'n hollol wir, ac mae angen adeiladu'r rhain ar frys ac ar raddfa fawr - ond mae amgylchiadau pobl yn newid. Efallai na fyddan nhw'n aros yn sengl am byth, ac efallai y bydd angen gofal arnyn nhw, efallai y bydd angen teulu neu ffrindiau arnyn nhw i ymweld ac ati. Felly nid tŷ un ystafell wely ar gyfer unigolyn ar ei ben ei hun o reidrwydd yw'r hyn y mae pobl yn chwilio amdano. Felly, mae ceisio adeiladu tai sy'n caniatáu i bobl allu byw yn y ffordd sy'n ddymunol iddyn nhw, a chael ffrind yn aros, a chael gofalwr, ŵyr neu wyres neu bartner y dyfodol o bosibl yn symud i mewn - rydym ni'n dymuno gweld cartrefi i bobl am eu hoes. Mae'r mathau hyn o dai modwlar sy'n caniatáu ichi ychwanegu ystafell wely neu fodiwl arall iddo yn ardderchog, ac mae angen eu hystyried nhw i'r dyfodol.
