English: I thank the Minister for that answer. I watched that plant being built. I watched the trains coming into the plant from the chemistry lab of Brynteg Comprehensive School it was so close. And now, it seems, there is a strong possibility that I will see the plant close. Minister, the economy of Bridgend has done well over the past few years, but this is a blow to the solar plexus of the town. There was no warning, either to the workers or to Welsh Government, and for 40 years the workers at Ford did what was asked of them and this was the way in which they were repaid. Minister, it seems that the decision was taken relatively recently, possibly a week or so before the decision was announced. I hear that there were still interviews taking place in the plant the week before the decision, and, indeed, contracts were still being let some weeks before the announcement. Minister, I'm concerned about what changed in the meantime, and the only thing I can think of is the ramping up of talk of a 'no deal' Brexit. That is something that I know was a factor that they mentioned to you in private conversation, and I know it's something they then denied in the afternoon. But the reality is that concern not about Brexit but about no deal is something, I believe, that weighed very heavily on their minds. Minister, the workers are worried. They're worried about their future. They're worried about their pensions, which is something I asked the Welsh Government to look at particularly. But, above all, of course, they look now to the Welsh Government for leadership and for advice as to the future. I certainly won't give up fighting for those workers and working with the trades unions, but we have to be prepared for all eventualities. So, my question, Minister, is this: will you assure Ford workers that all that can be done is being done, and will you assure me and those workers that they will receive assistance from the Welsh Government and that the Welsh Government will look to provide a future for them and for the town?
Welsh: Diolch i'r Gweinidog am yr ateb hwnnw. Gwyliais y safle hwnnw'n cael ei adeiladu. Gwyliais i'r trenau'n dod i'r safle o labordy cemeg Ysgol Gyfun Brynteg gan ei fod mor agos. A nawr, mae'n ymddangos, mae yna bosibilrwydd mawr y byddaf yn gweld y safle yn cau. Gweinidog, mae economi Pen-y-bont ar Ogwr wedi gwneud yn dda yn ystod y blynyddoedd diwethaf, ond mae hyn yn ergyd i galon y dref. Ni chafwyd rhybudd, i'r gweithwyr nac i Lywodraeth Cymru, ac am 40 mlynedd, gwnaeth y gweithwyr yn Ford yr hyn a ofynnwyd iddynt, a dyma sut y cawson nhw eu had-dalu. Gweinidog, ymddengys fod y penderfyniad wedi'i wneud yn gymharol ddiweddar, ryw wythnos efallai cyn cyhoeddi'r penderfyniad. Rwy'n clywed bod cyfweliadau'n dal i gael eu cynnal yn y ffatri wythnos cyn y penderfyniad, ac yn wir, yr oedd contractau'n dal i gael eu rhoi rai wythnosau cyn y cyhoeddiad. Gweinidog, rwy'n pryderu ynghylch yr hyn a newidiodd yn y cyfamser, a'r unig beth y gallaf i feddwl amdano yw'r sôn cynyddol am Brexit 'dim cytundeb'. Mae hynny'n rhywbeth y gwn iddo fod yn ffactor a grybwyllwyd i chi mewn sgwrs breifat, a gwn ei fod yn rhywbeth a wadwyd ganddynt wedyn yn y prynhawn. Ond y realiti yw bod pryder, nid ynghylch Brexit ond ynghylch dim cytundeb yn rhywbeth, rwy'n credu, a bwysodd yn drwm iawn ar eu meddyliau. Gweinidog, mae'r gweithwyr yn poeni. Maen nhw'n poeni am eu dyfodol. Maen nhw'n poeni am eu pensiynau, ac mae hynny'n rhywbeth y gofynnais i Lywodraeth Cymru edrych arno'n arbennig. Ond, yn anad dim, wrth gwrs, maen nhw'n edrych yn awr i Lywodraeth Cymru am arweiniad ac am gyngor ynglŷn â'r dyfodol. Yn sicr, ni fyddaf i'n rhoi'r gorau i frwydro dros y gweithwyr hynny ac i weithio gyda'r undebau llafur, ond mae'n rhaid inni fod yn barod am bob posibilrwydd. Felly, fy nghwestiwn i, Gweinidog, yw hyn: a wnewch chi roi sicrwydd i weithwyr Ford bod popeth y gellir ei wneud yn cael ei wneud, ac a wnewch chi roi sicrwydd i mi ac i'r gweithwyr hynny y byddan nhw'n cael cymorth gan Lywodraeth Cymru ac y bydd Llywodraeth Cymru yn ceisio darparu dyfodol iddyn nhw ac i'r dref?
