English: Well, Llywydd, I'm very happy to do just that. In November, the Chancellor said that he will be making a determination on this matter early in the new year. On 8 January we finally got a reply to a letter that the finance Minister here had written with counterparts in the Scottish Government and the Northern Ireland Executive back in November, saying that the Chancellor was going to wait for more evidence before making up his mind. Well, what evidence does he need, Llywydd? Presumably the £20 a week was a recognition of four years of freezing benefits for people of working age and the abolition of the family element of tax credits and universal credit. If they need further evidence, Llywydd, I'm happy to provide it myself. I'll just for one moment tell you that my constituency office staff, as well as having spent the run up to Christmas having to give out food bank vouchers on a scale we'd never seen before, on Christmas Eve we were contacted by a single-parent family with five children who literally had nothing in the house at all with which to feed those children over the Christmas period. My office, like all of yours, people are working from home and they are having to do the very best they can in those circumstances, and they spent Christmas Eve running around trying to make sure that those five children had something to eat over Christmas. In the end, a fantastic local business provided them with the food they needed and we managed to get it to them. But, Llywydd, I cannot tell you how angry it makes me that, in the twenty-first century, we have a system that leaves children here in Wales in that position. They were in that position not by accident; they were in that position because the family cap policy of this Government had left that family in that circumstance. It is a cruel policy - a cruel policy - that shifts onto children the consequences of parents' behaviour. I'm very happy to provide that evidence to UK Ministers when next I have an opportunity, and to say to them that those families need to know now - now - that they are not going to be asked to manage with £1,000 less after the end of March of this year.
Welsh: Wel, Llywydd, rwy'n hapus iawn i wneud yr union beth hwnnw. Ym mis Tachwedd, dywedodd y Canghellor y bydd yn gwneud penderfyniad ar y mater hwn yn gynnar yn y flwyddyn newydd. Ar 8 Ionawr cawsom ateb o'r diwedd i lythyr yr oedd y Gweinidog Cyllid yn y fan yma wedi ei ysgrifennu gyda chymheiriaid yn Llywodraeth yr Alban a Gweithrediaeth Gogledd Iwerddon yn ôl ym mis Tachwedd, yn dweud bod y Canghellor yn mynd i aros am fwy o dystiolaeth cyn penderfynu. Wel, pa dystiolaeth sydd ei hangen arno, Llywydd? Mae'n debyg bod yr £20 yr wythnos yn gydnabyddiaeth o bedair blynedd o rewi budd-daliadau i bobl o oedran gweithio a diddymu elfen deuluol credydau treth a chredyd cynhwysol. Os oes angen rhagor o dystiolaeth arnyn nhw, Llywydd, rwy'n hapus i'w ddarparu fy hun. Dywedaf wrthych chi am eiliad bod staff fy swyddfa etholaethol, yn ogystal â threulio'r cyfnod cyn y Nadolig yn gorfod dosbarthu talebau banc bwyd ar raddfa nad oeddem ni erioed wedi ei weld o'r blaen, ar Noswyl Nadolig cysylltodd teulu un rhiant â ni gyda phump o blant nad oedd ganddyn nhw ddim yn y tŷ, yn llythrennol, i fwydo'r plant hynny dros gyfnod y Nadolig. Mae pobl fy swyddfa i, fel eich rhai chithau i gyd, yn gweithio gartref ac maen nhw'n gorfod gwneud y gorau y gallan nhw o dan yr amgylchiadau hynny, a threuliasant Noswyl Nadolig yn rhedeg o gwmpas yn ceisio gwneud yn siŵr bod gan y pum plentyn hynny rywbeth i'w fwyta dros y Nadolig. Yn y pen draw, darparodd busnes lleol gwych y bwyd yr oedd ei angen arnyn nhw a llwyddwyd i'w gael atyn nhw. Ond, Llywydd, ni allaf ddweud wrthych chi pa mor ddig y mae'n fy ngwneud, yn yr unfed ganrif ar hugain, bod gennym ni system sy'n gadael plant yma yng Nghymru yn y sefyllfa honno. Doedden nhw ddim yn y sefyllfa honno drwy ddamwain; roedden nhw yn y sefyllfa honno oherwydd bod polisi cap teuluol y Llywodraeth hon wedi gadael y teulu hwnnw yn yr amgylchiadau hynny. Mae'n bolisi creulon - polisi creulon - sy'n trosglwyddo canlyniadau ymddygiad rhieni i blant. Rwy'n hapus iawn i ddarparu'r dystiolaeth honno i Weinidogion y DU y tro nesaf y caf i gyfle, ac i ddweud wrthyn nhw bod y teuluoedd hynny angen gwybod nawr - nawr - na ofynnir iddyn nhw ymdopi gyda £1,000 yn llai ar ôl diwedd mis Mawrth eleni.
