English: Diolch, Llywydd. Cabinet Secretary, I thank you for your statement this afternoon. I very much welcome the taskforce and its ambitions, and I want to see it work. Obviously, I want to be able to see the lessons learned from that apply to all the valleys in south Wales, because, as you know, the Afan valley is not included in your hub areas. You've actually identified the Valleys landscape park as one opportunity, and Vikki Howells has mentioned the Abernant tunnel. The one she didn't mention was the Rhondda to Blaengwynfi tunnel - to ensure that that all works as well. But there are developments in the Afan valley, which is not included, that have looked at projects that will develop the tourism industry there, with the Afan Valley resort project or the Rhondda tunnel project. These are projects focusing upon bringing tourism in. Will you confirm to me now that, because we're not in the hub areas, we will not be missing out on the opportunities to benefit from the Valleys landscape park, so that we can build into that and work together?
Welsh: Diolch, Llywydd. Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet, hoffwn ddiolch ichi am eich datganiad y prynhawn yma. Croesawaf yn fawr y tasglu a'i uchelgeisiau, ac rwy'n dymuno ei weld yn gweithio. Yn amlwg, rwyf eisiau gallu gweld y gwersi a ddysgwyd o hynny yn berthnasol i bob cwm yn ne Cymru, oherwydd, fel y gwyddoch, ni chynhwysir cwm Afan yn eich canolfannau. Mewn gwirionedd rydych wedi nodi parc tirwedd y Cymoedd fel un cyfle, ac mae Vikki Howells wedi sôn am dwnnel Abernant. Yr un na wnaeth sôn amdano oedd twnnel y Rhondda i Blaengwynfi - i sicrhau bod hynny i gyd yn gweithio hefyd. Ond mae datblygiadau yng nghwm Afan, nad ydynt yn cael eu cynnwys, sydd wedi edrych ar brosiectau a fydd yn datblygu'r diwydiant twristiaeth yno, gyda phrosiect man gwyliau cwm Afan neu brosiect twnnel y Rhondda. Mae'r rhain yn brosiectau sy'n canolbwyntio ar ddenu twristiaeth. A wnewch chi gadarnhau i mi yn awr, na fyddwn yn colli allan ar gyfleoedd i elwa o barc tirwedd y Cymoedd, fel y gallwn adeiladu ar hynny a gweithio gyda'n gilydd?
English: Item 4 on the agenda this afternoon is a statement by the leader of the house on the review of gender equality. I call on the leader of the house, Julie James, to make the statement.
Welsh: Eitem 4 ar yr agenda y prynhawn yma yw datganiad gan arweinydd y tŷ ar yr adolygiad o gydraddoldeb rhwng y rhywiau. Galwaf ar arweinydd y tŷ, Julie James, i wneud y datganiad.
English: Yes. You mentioned in your statement that you want to show vision and leadership in Wales on gender issues, and of course we want to do that. I think that bringing a Bill forward to safeguard our rights as women would be an excellent way of showing that vision and leadership. Thank you.
Welsh: Ydw. Rydych chi'n sôn yn eich datganiad eich bod chi eisiau dangos gweledigaeth ac arweinyddiaeth yng Nghymru ar faterion rhywedd, ac wrth gwrs rydym ni eisiau gwneud hynny. Rydw i'n meddwl y byddai dod â Bil ymlaen i ddiogelu ein hawliau ni fel merched yn ffordd dda iawn o ddangos y weledigaeth a'r arweinyddiaeth hynny. Diolch.
English: Thank you. We have had a major speaker from each of the parties. Can I now - ? For the rest of the speakers - we've still got quite a few - it will be a short introduction and one question so that we can get through all of you. Bethan Sayed.
Welsh: Diolch. Rydym wedi cael siaradwr o bob un o'r partïon mawr. Gallaf yn awr - ? Ar gyfer gweddill y siaradwyr - mae sawl un o hyd - bydd cyflwyniad byr ac un cwestiwn fel bod cyfle i bawb. Bethan Sayed.
English: Well, absolutely, I agree that we need to have more action. I'm sorry that Bethan Sayed feels the way she does about it. I think we've addressed, in correspondence, the issues around the procurement. The whole point about this, Deputy Presiding Officer, was that we wanted a rapid review. I could have gone out to a six-month procurement and we would have got a lot longer timescale. We wanted to do something quickly to make sure that we could pull the actions that she speaks of together. We've gone a long way since 2011 in this Assembly and in this Government. We've done a very considerable amount in terms of legislation and in terms of attitude. What this report is saying is that we could do more. And, as I said earlier in my introduction, it's quite clear that we've not achieved gender equality, but what's also clear is that there is not a nation on the planet that has achieved gender equality. We have a lot to learn from those other nations and I am not ashamed to say that we will redouble our efforts in that regard.
Welsh: Wel, cytunaf yn llwyr fod angen inni gael mwy o weithredu. Mae'n ddrwg gennyf fod Bethan Sayed yn teimlo y ffordd y mae am y peth. Rwy'n credu ein bod wedi rhoi sylw, mewn gohebiaeth, i faterion yn ymwneud â chaffael. Yr holl bwynt ynghylch hyn, Dirprwy Lywydd, oedd ein bod yn dymuno cael adolygiad cyflym. Gallwn fod wedi mynd i gaffael chwe mis a byddem wedi cael llawer mwy o amser. Roeddem eisiau gwneud rhywbeth yn gyflym i wneud yn siŵr y gallem dynnu'r camau gweithredu y mae'n siarad amdanynt at ei gilydd. Rydym wedi cyflawni tipyn ers 2011 yn y Cynulliad hwn a'r Llywodraeth hon. Rydym wedi gwneud llawer iawn o ran deddfwriaeth ac o ran agwedd. Yr hyn y mae'r adroddiad hwn yn ei ddweud yw y gallem wneud mwy. Ac, fel y dywedais yn gynharach yn fy nghyflwyniad, mae'n eithaf amlwg nad ydym wedi cyflawni cydraddoldeb rhwng y rhywiau, ond hefyd yr hyn sy'n amlwg yw nad oes cenedl ar y blaned sydd wedi cyflawni cydraddoldeb rhwng y rhywiau. Mae gennym lawer i'w ddysgu gan y gwledydd eraill hynny, ac nid oes gennyf gywilydd dweud y byddwn yn dwysáu ein hymdrechion yn hynny o beth.
English: I've read through the Chwarae Teg rapid review and I'm pleased to see that the leader of the house is praised for her leadership and passion for equality, and I wanted to raise a few quick points. First of all, there's a recommendation that there should be an Assembly women and equalities committee, which seemed to me a good way of moving forward, and I wondered what she thought about that. There's quite a bit about shared parental leave and the very low take-up of it throughout the UK. And it is a universal problem. But I wondered whether the leader of the house had had the opportunity to read about Sweden's practice and how they're trying to move to five months leave for men. And I wondered if she had any comment on that. And then equality impact assessments - which are absolutely crucial, but the evidence that seems to be coming through in these documents is that it is, perhaps, seen as a tick-box exercise. And we've had quite difficult changes to the grants, for example, for the Traveller education service, which I've raised a few times, and it's difficult to find out what was the quality of the equality impact assessments there if, indeed, anything did take place. So, will the leader of the house be looking at equality impact assessments to see that they are used in a meaningful way? And, finally, I welcome the strategic approach that is being used.
Welsh: Rwyf wedi darllen drwy adolygiad cyflym Chwarae Teg ac rwy'n falch o weld bod arweinydd y tŷ yn cael ei chanmol am ei harweinyddiaeth a'i hangerdd dros gydraddoldeb, ac roeddwn am godi ambell bwynt cyflym. Yn gyntaf, mae argymhelliad y dylai fod pwyllgor menywod a chydraddoldeb o'r Cynulliad, a oedd yn ymddangos i mi yn ffordd dda o symud ymlaen. Tybed beth oedd hi'n feddwl am hynny. Ceir cryn dipyn ynghylch absenoldeb rhiant a rennir a'r defnydd isel iawn ohono ledled y DU. Ac mae'n broblem gyffredinol. Ond tybed a yw arweinydd y tŷ wedi cael cyfle i ddarllen am arferion Sweden a sut y maent yn ceisio symud tuag at absenoldeb o bum mis ar gyfer dynion. A tybed a oedd ganddi unrhyw sylw ar hynny. Ac yna asesiadau o'r effaith ar gydraddoldeb - sy'n gwbl hanfodol. Ond y dystiolaeth sy'n dod i'r amlwg yn y dogfennau hyn, fe ymddengys, yw y cânt eu gweld fel ymarfer ticio blychau. Ac rydym wedi cael newidiadau eithaf anodd i grantiau, er enghraifft, ar gyfer y gwasanaeth addysg i Deithwyr, yr wyf wedi ei godi sawl gwaith, ac mae'n anodd canfod beth oedd ansawdd yr asesiadau o'r effaith ar gydraddoldeb os, yn wir, y digwyddodd unrhyw beth. Felly, a fydd arweinydd y tŷ yn edrych ar yr asesiadau o'r effaith ar gydraddoldeb i weld eu bod yn cael eu defnyddio'n ystyrlon? Ac, yn olaf, croesawaf y dull strategol a ddefnyddir.
English: Yes, I think that's an excellent point. As I said, there's a lot we can do to put our own house in order. The report is huge food for thought. When you have the chance to read it through thoroughly, the discussion around maternity and paternity leave, shared parental leave and so on, is one that really resonated with me. Because, absolutely, we have to ensure that women who want to take parental leave can do so, but until we move to a position where men take an equal share of that women will always be disadvantaged, because, as soon as you assume that the woman is the carer, then that young woman will assume that as they make their choices going forward. We know from our stakeholder meetings that that is what's happening, and so they're already ruling themselves out of careers that might involve difficulty with that, because they know inevitably they won't be able to do that. And it's very hard to tell them otherwise when all of the stats show them that. So, there are some concerted things we need to do here, and this is a whole society attitude. As I say, even in Scandinavian countries, who have been a lot more progressive in looking at this for many years, they've reported sobering reading about some of the places they still have to go. But I absolutely agree that we need to put our own house in order and be the shining exemplar that we ought to be and I'm looking forward to those discussions with the Permanent Secretary and others over the summer so that we can respond in that regard in the autumn.
Welsh: Ie, credaf fod hwnnw'n bwynt ardderchog. Fel y dywedais, mae llawer y gallwn ei wneud i roi trefn ar ein tŷ ein hunain. Mae'r adroddiad yn rhoi llawer iawn inni gnoi cil arno. Pan fydd cyfle gennych i'w ddarllen yn drylwyr, mae'r drafodaeth ynghylch absenoldeb mamolaeth a thadolaeth, absenoldeb rhiant a rennir ac ati, yn un wnaeth daro tant gyda mi mewn gwirionedd. Oherwydd, yn sicr, rhaid inni sicrhau y gall menywod sy'n dymuno cymryd absenoldeb rhiant wneud hynny, ond hyd nes inni symud i sefyllfa lle mae'r dynion yn cymryd cyfran gyfartal o hynny bydd menywod bob amser dan anfantais, oherwydd, cyn gynted ag y byddwch yn tybio mai'r fenyw yw'r gofalwr, yna bydd y ferch ifanc honno yn tybio hynny wrth iddi wneud ei dewisiadau i'r dyfodol. Rydym yn gwybod o'n cyfarfodydd rhanddeiliaid mai dyna sy'n digwydd, ac felly maent eisoes yn diystyru eu hunain ar gyfer y gyrfaoedd a allai olygu anhawster gyda hynny, oherwydd maent yn gwybod yn anochel na fyddant yn gallu gwneud hynny. Ac mae'n anodd iawn iddynt ddweud fel arall pan mae'r holl ystadegau yn dangos hynny iddynt. Felly, mae rhai pethau ar y cyd, fel y dywedais, hyd yn oed yng ngwledydd Llychlyn, sydd wedi bod yn llawer mwy blaengar yn edrych ar hyn ers blynyddoedd lawer, maent wedi cofnodi deunydd darllen sy'n brofiad syber am rai o'r mannau y mae'n rhaid iddynt fynd yno o hyd. Ond cytunaf yn llwyr fod angen inni roi trefn ar ein tŷ ein hunain a bod yn enghraifft ddisglair, fel y dylem fod, ac rwy'n edrych ymlaen at y trafodaethau hynny gyda'r Ysgrifennydd Parhaol ac eraill dros yr haf fel y gallwn ymateb o ran hynny yn yr hydref.
English: Diolch. After meeting you last night, Jan Logie, the parliamentary under-secretary in the New Zealand Government's Ministry of Justice, was hosted by me as co-chair of the cross-party group on violence against women and children at a round-table meeting to discuss gender-based violence and prevention. Clearly, there's not just a national but an international element to this, and we can each learn and progress together by engaging with each other. But at a domestic level - and I think you've heard me mention this before - during the last local government term, my wife, then a county councillor, was subjected to a campaign of misogynist bullying, some of it online, by the deputy leader of Flintshire County Council. The ombudsman advised local mediation and that agreed certain actions, but when the deputy leader reneged on his promise to make a public apology in the chamber, my wife was told the only action she could take would be to make a formal complaint to the ombudsman. By this stage, she was suffering from serious consequent anxiety and depression, from which she's still not fully recovered. And, of course, that individual is still deputy leader of the council. What action can we take to ensure that bodies such as local authorities keep their own houses in order, and do not require the victim to seek remedy?
Welsh: Diolch. Ar ôl cyfarfod â chi neithiwr, cafodd Jan Logie, Is-Ysgrifennydd Seneddol yng Ngweinyddiaeth Gyfiawnder Llywodraeth Seland Newydd, ei chroesawu gennyf i fel cyd-gadeirydd y grŵp trawsbleidiol ar drais yn erbyn menywod a phlant mewn cyfarfod bord gron i drafod trais ar sail rhywedd ac atal. Yn amlwg, mae elfen ryngwladol yn ogystal ag elfen genedlaethol i hyn, a gallwn ddysgu a symud ymlaen gyda'n gilydd drwy ymgysylltu â'n gilydd. Ond ar lefel ddomestig - ac rydych chi wedi fy nghlywed i'n sôn am hyn o'r blaen - yn ystod tymor diwethaf llywodraeth leol, roedd fy ngwraig, a oedd yn gynghorydd sir bryd hynny, yn destun ymgyrch fwlio casineb yn erbyn gwragedd, rywfaint ohono ar-lein, gan ddirprwy arweinydd Cyngor Sir y Fflint. Awgrymodd yr ombwdsmon gyfryngu lleol a chytunwyd ar rai camau gweithredu, ond dywedwyd wrth fy ngwraig pan dorrodd y dirprwy arweinydd ei addewid i ymddiheuro'n gyhoeddus yn y Siambr, mai'r unig gam gweithredu y gallai hi ei gymryd oedd gwneud cwyn ffurfiol i'r ombwdsmon. Erbyn hynny, roedd hi'n dioddef gorbryder ac iselder difrifol, ac mae'n dal heb adfer yn llawn. Ac, wrth gwrs, mae'r unigolyn hwnnw yn dal yn ddirprwy arweinydd y cyngor. Pa gamau y gellir eu cymryd i sicrhau bod cyrff fel awdurdodau lleol yn cadw trefn ar eu tai eu hunain, ac nad oes angen i'r dioddefwr geisio gwneud iawn?
English: Without commenting on the specific circumstances, there clearly is an issue around impact and enforceability. I'm very proud of the public sector equality duty in Wales and the particular Welsh aspects to that, but there are issues around what we do if they aren't upheld. Some of the reporting could be better. These are things we learn as we go along. So, very, very important to us will be to take the lessons of - . You know, the legislation is all very well, but what do you do if it's breached, or what impact is it having, what do you do about - ? You know, we have exemplar public services in Wales, but we have some trailers. What can we do about that will be very much part of this review, and I'd very much welcome your input into that, Mark Isherwood.
Welsh: Heb grybwyll yr amgylchiadau penodol, mae'n amlwg bod angen rhoi sylw i effaith hyn a sut y mae modd ei orfodi. Rwy'n falch iawn o ddyletswydd cydraddoldeb y sector cyhoeddus yng Nghymru ac agweddau Cymreig penodol hynny, ond mae angen rhoi sylw i'r hyn y dylem ni ei wneud os na chydymffurfir â hynny. Gallai rhai o'r adroddiadau fod yn well. Mae'r rhain yn bethau yr ydym ni'n dysgu wrth fynd rhagddom. Felly, bydd hi'n bwysig iawn, iawn inni ddysgu gwersi - . Wyddoch chi, mae bod â'r ddeddfwriaeth yn iawn, ond beth ydych chi'n ei wneud os gaiff ei thorri, neu beth yw ei heffaith, beth ydych chi'n ei wneud am - ? Wyddoch chi, mae gennym ni wasanaethau cyhoeddus rhagorol yng Nghymru, ond mae gennym ni rai sy'n llusgo'u traed. Bydd yr hyn y gallwn ni ei wneud ynghylch hynny yn rhan o'r adolygiad hwn, a byddwn i'n croesawu'n fawr iawn eich cyfraniad chi at hynny, Mark Isherwood.
English: Item 5 is the legislative consent motion on the Non-Domestic Rating (Nursery Grounds) Bill, and I call on the Cabinet Secretary for Finance to move the motion - Mark Drakeford.
Welsh: Eitem 5 yw'r cynnig cydsyniad deddfwriaethol ar gyfer y Bil Ardrethu Annomestig (Meithrinfeydd Planhigion), a galwaf ar Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet dros Gyllid i gynnig y cynnig - Mark Drakeford.
English: Thank you. I have no speakers for this debate. So, the proposal is to agree the motion. Does any Member object? No. Therefore, the motion is agreed in accordance with Standing Order 12.36.
Welsh: Diolch. Nid oes gennyf unrhyw siaradwyr ar gyfer y ddadl hon. Felly, y cynnig yw cytuno ar y cynnig. A oes unrhyw Aelod yn gwrthwynebu? Nac oes. Felly, derbynnir y cynnig yn unol â Rheol Sefydlog 12.36.
English: We move on to item 6 on the agenda, which is a debate on the first supplementary budget of 2018-19, and I call on the Cabinet Secretary for Finance to move the motion - Mark Drakeford.
Welsh: Symudwn ymlaen at eitem 6 ar yr agenda, sef dadl ar gyllideb atodol gyntaf 2018-19, a galwaf ar yr Ysgrifennydd Cabinet dros Gyllid i gynnig y cynnig - Mark Drakeford.
English: Over the next few months, I will be monitoring our financial situation very carefully, of course, and I intend to lay a second supplementary budget in accordance with the usual timetable. I continue to look with colleagues at the case for allocations from funds in-year, whilst continuing to retain a level of resource that is sufficient for the financially uncertain period in which we work. This will allow us to respond when necessary to further possible pressures on the budget and to carry funds forward through the Welsh reserve fund. Any further allocations from reserves this year will be reflected in the second supplementary budget. I would like to thank the Finance Committee once again for their work in scrutinising this supplementary budget, and I ask Members to support it.
Welsh: Dros y misoedd nesaf byddaf yn monitro ein sefyllfa ariannol yn ofalus, wrth gwrs. Rydw i'n bwriadu gosod ail gyllideb atodol yn unol â'r amserlen arferol. Rydw i'n parhau i archwilio gyda chydweithwyr yr achos dros ddyrannu o gronfeydd yn ystod y flwyddyn, wrth barhau i gadw lefel adnoddau sy'n ddigonol ar gyfer y cyfnod ariannol ansicr rydym ni'n gweithio ynddo. Bydd hyn yn caniatáu inni ymateb lle bo angen i bwysau pellach posibl ar y gyllideb ac i gario cyllid ymlaen drwy gronfa wrth gefn Cymru. Bydd unrhyw ddyraniadau pellach o'r cronfeydd wrth gefn eleni yn cael eu hadlewyrchu yn yr ail gyllideb atodol. Hoffwn i ddiolch unwaith eto i'r Pwyllgor Cyllid am eu gwaith yn craffu ar y gyllideb atodol hon ac rydw i'n gofyn i'r Aelodau ei chefnogi.
English: Thank you. Can I now call on the Chair of the Finance Committee, Simon Thomas?
Welsh: Diolch. A gaf i alw yn awr ar Gadeirydd y Pwyllgor Cyllid, Simon Thomas?
English: I've been mentioned twice, so I've got a right to reply.
Welsh: Cyfeiriwyd ataf ddwywaith, felly mae gen i hawl i ymateb.
English: Very nicely too.
Welsh: Yn neis iawn hefyd.
English: Yes, and there are many things in this - . I think I mistakenly said 'substantial changes' earlier - I meant important changes, rather than substantial changes. But, yes, we always abstain on the supplementary budget, because it does represent a change to the previous budget that we did not support, so we don't want to cause confusion where it's not necessary.
Welsh: Do, ac mae yna lawer o bethau yn hyn - . Credaf fy mod drwy gamgymeriad wedi dweud 'newidiadau sylweddol' yn gynharach - newidiadau pwysig yr oeddwn i'n ei olygu, yn hytrach na newidiadau sylweddol. Ond, ydym, rydym ni bob amser yn ymatal ar y gyllideb atodol, oherwydd mae'n cynrychioli newid i gyllideb flaenorol nad oeddem ni'n ei chefnogi, felly nid oes arnom ni eisiau achosi dryswch yn ddi-angen.
English: Well, you've put that on the record now, Nick Ramsay. What I was going on to say is that this is a remarkable achievement that we will have, I'm sure, support for the supplementary budget today, and indeed, as you did say, Nick Ramsay, for the fiscal framework that has been achieved, and I would say in spite of eight years of austerity imposed on us in the Welsh Labour Government by the UK Government. But I think this is the achievement of this - . In terms of getting the budget through supplementary, full budget and the fiscal framework, this is a result of political will, the political will of the Welsh Labour Government, but I would also acknowledge political collaboration, which is very pertinent, I would say, in terms of the Finance Committee - the political collaboration we've achieved to advance these fiscal powers in Wales.
Welsh: Wel, rydych chi wedi dweud hynny ar goedd yn awr, Nick Ramsay. Yr hyn yr oeddwn i eisiau ei ddweud yw bod hyn yn gamp ryfeddol y bydd gennym ni, mae'n siŵr, gefnogaeth ar gyfer y gyllideb atodol heddiw, ac yn wir, fel y gwnaethoch chi ddweud, Nick Ramsay, ar gyfer y fframwaith ariannol a sicrhawyd, a byddwn i'n ei ddweud er gwaethaf wyth mlynedd o gynni a orfodwyd arnom ni yn Llywodraeth Lafur Cymru gan Lywodraeth y DU. Ond rwy'n credu bod hyn yn un o lwyddiannau hyn - . O ran cael y gyllideb drwy gamau'r gyllideb atodol, y gyllideb lawn a'r fframwaith ariannol, mae hyn o ganlyniad i ewyllys gwleidyddol, ewyllys gwleidyddol Llywodraeth Lafur Cymru, ond hoffwn hefyd gydnabod cydweithrediad gwleidyddol, sydd yn berthnasol iawn, byddwn i'n ei ddweud, o ran y Pwyllgor Cyllid - y cydweithrediad gwleidyddol yr ydym ni wedi'i gyflawni i ddatblygu'r pwerau cyllidol hyn yng Nghymru.
