English: Thank you very much for your statement today, Minister. I'm particularly keen on the local places of nature and connecting people in urban communities, which most of our population live in of course, with nature, as best we can. In Newport, there's a community in Maindee, which is just over the river from the city centre, which had and still has little green space, but they have an organisation, Maindee Unlimited, and an offshoot, Greening Maindee, which is doing a lot of really good work in creating gardens and orchards for community use, working with schools to create corridors for nature near to the school. They have a project opposite Maindee library, where they're based, to develop a patch of ground that was once, basically, a public toilet with a little bit of land around it, called the triangle, to develop that and, again, to green it and to create a community cafe. So, they're doing a lot of really good work. And I just wonder, Minister, if groups like that, with a track record of delivery, would benefit particularly from the schemes and the funding that is available, when they represent areas that are particularly lacking in green space, and Maindee is also very diverse ethnically. It has a lot of social and economic issues, but improving quality of life through these schemes is absolutely vital and puts a spring in every local person's step. Just one other matter, Minister, I wonder if there's any work you might be able to do with Network Rail where they have - again, in urban areas where a lot of people live - railway bridges that are very unsightly, they're quite forbidding to walk underneath because they drip with water, they're not well lit, they're very drab and forbidding -
Welsh: Diolch yn fawr am eich datganiad heddiw, Gweinidog. Rwy'n hoffi'n arbennig y lleoedd natur lleol a chysylltu pobl mewn cymunedau trefol, y mae'r rhan fwyaf o'n poblogaeth yn byw ynddyn nhw wrth gwrs, gyda natur, hyd y gallwn ni. Yng Nghasnewydd, mae cymuned ym Maendy, sydd dim ond dros yr afon o ganol y ddinas, a oedd heb ac sydd heb lawer o le gwyrdd o hyd, ond mae ganddyn nhw sefydliad, Maindee Unlimited, a changen o'r enw Gwyrddu Maendy, sy'n gwneud llawer o waith da iawn i greu gerddi a pherllannau at ddefnydd y gymuned, gan weithio gydag ysgolion i greu coridorau ar gyfer natur ger yr ysgol. Mae ganddyn nhw brosiect gyferbyn â llyfrgell Maendy, lle maen nhw wedi'u lleoli, i ddatblygu darn o dir a oedd unwaith, yn y bôn, yn doiled cyhoeddus gydag ychydig o dir o'i amgylch, o'r enw y triongl, i ddatblygu hwnnw ac, unwaith eto, i'w wyrddio ac i greu caffi cymunedol. Felly, maen nhw'n gwneud llawer o waith da iawn. A tybed, Gweinidog, pe bai grwpiau fel hynny, gyda hanes o gyflawni, yn elwa'n arbennig ar y cynlluniau a'r cyllid sydd ar gael, pan fyddan nhw'n cynrychioli ardaloedd sy'n brin iawn o fannau gwyrdd, ac mae Maendy hefyd yn amrywiol iawn yn ethnig. Mae ganddo lawer o broblemau cymdeithasol ac economaidd, ond mae gwella ansawdd bywyd drwy'r cynlluniau hyn yn gwbl hanfodol ac maen nhw'n gwneud camau pob person lleol yn sioncach o lawer. Dim ond un mater arall, Gweinidog, tybed a oes unrhyw waith y gallech chi ei wneud gyda Network Rail lle mae ganddyn nhw - unwaith eto, mewn ardaloedd trefol lle mae llawer o bobl yn byw - bontydd rheilffyrdd hyll iawn, mae'n deimlad anghynnes cerdded oddi tanyn nhw gan fod dŵr yn diferu yno, nid ydyn nhw wedi'u goleuo'n dda iawn, maen nhw'n ddi-liw ac yn annymunol -
