English: Group 3 is next. Group 3 of amendments relates to additional learning needs. Amendment 6 is the lead and lone amendment in this group. I call on the Minister to move and speak to amendment 6.
Welsh: Grŵp 3 sydd nesaf. Mae grŵp 3 o welliannau'n ymwneud ag anghenion dysgu ychwanegol. Gwelliant 6 yw'r prif welliant, a'r unig welliant, yn y grŵp yma. Dwi'n galw ar y Gweinidog i gynnig gwelliant 6, felly.
English: Diolch, Llywydd. Amendment 6 adds reference to individuals who have additional learning needs into section 4 of the Bill, which provides for the strategic duty in respect of encouraging participation in tertiary education. Section 4 requires the commission to 'encourage individuals who are ordinarily resident in Wales to participate in tertiary education'. This amendment alters this section to include express reference to 'individuals who have additional learning needs'. While the duty, as introduced, captures all individuals, including those who have additional learning needs, as I indicated at Stage 2, I am bringing forward this amendment to include express reference on the face of the Bill to put beyond any doubt that those who have additional learning needs are within the scope of the strategic duty. I would like to thank Laura Anne Jones in particular for the constructive approach she has taken to discussions in relation to this amendment, which takes into account the discussions we had during the Stage 2 proceedings in committee. I urge Members to support this important amendment.
Welsh: Diolch, Llywydd. Mae gwelliant 6 yn ychwanegu cyfeiriad at unigolion sydd ag anghenion dysgu ychwanegol at adran 4 y Bil, sy'n darparu ar gyfer y ddyletswydd strategol o ran annog pobl i gymryd rhan mewn addysg drydyddol. Mae adran 4 yn ei gwneud yn ofynnol i'r comisiwn 'annog unigolion sy'n preswylio fel arfer yng Nghymru i gymryd rhan mewn addysg drydyddol'. Mae'r gwelliant hwn yn newid yr adran hon i gynnwys cyfeiriad penodol at 'unigolion sydd ag anghenion dysgu ychwanegol'. Er bod y ddyletswydd, fel y'i cyflwynwyd, yn cynnwys pob unigolyn, gan gynnwys y rheini sydd ag anghenion dysgu ychwanegol, fel y nodais yng Nghyfnod 2, rwy'n cyflwyno'r gwelliant hwn i gynnwys cyfeiriad penodol ar wyneb y Bil i roi y tu hwnt i unrhyw amheuaeth bod y rhai sydd ag anghenion dysgu ychwanegol o fewn cwmpas y ddyletswydd strategol. Hoffwn ddiolch yn benodol i Laura Anne Jones am y dull adeiladol y mae wedi ei fabwysiadu o ran trafodaethau yng nghyswllt y gwelliant hwn, sy'n cymryd i ystyriaeth y trafodaethau a gawsom yn ystod trafodion Cyfnod 2 yn y pwyllgor. Anogaf yr Aelodau i gefnogi'r gwelliant pwysig hwn.
English: I recognise the Minister has taken some action on this, and we welcome it, of course, and thank you for recognising our contribution to it. But, we need to see the commission being clear in how they will treat people with additional learning needs in their policy, especially surrounding supported internships and apprenticeships, which are being integrated into the Bill. Barriers already exist for those with learning disabilities entering into the workforce, and this Bill could be a huge opportunity to break down those barriers. The Minister is aware that the committee expressed its concerns about the commission in relation to the Additional Learning Needs and Education Tribunal (Wales) Act 2018, and I do note his response, which mentioned that detailed arrangements for implementing post-16 ALN reforms are currently being finalised. I would therefore be grateful if the Minister would clarify when he expects these detailed arrangements to be implemented and how these will affect the commission's policy on the provision of ALN in the tertiary and higher education sectors. I would also like to know whether funding for supported internships and apprenticeships will be included within this policy. I recognise the Welsh Government has embarked on significant reforms to ALN in the educational sector, and as ALN is life long, we do need to ensure that there is a seamless transition from schools to tertiary education and then, if possible, on to work. Diolch, Llywydd.
Welsh: Rwy'n cydnabod bod y Gweinidog wedi cymryd rhywfaint o gamau yn hyn o beth, ac rydym ni'n croesawu hynny, wrth gwrs, a diolch am gydnabod ein cyfraniad ato. Ond, mae angen i ni weld y comisiwn yn bod yn eglur ynghylch sut y byddan nhw'n trin pobl ag anghenion dysgu ychwanegol yn eu polisi, yn enwedig o ran interniaethau a phrentisiaethau â chymorth, sy'n cael eu hintegreiddio i'r Bil. Mae rhwystrau eisoes yn bodoli i'r rheini ag anableddau dysgu sy'n ymuno â'r gweithlu, a gallai'r Bil hwn fod yn gyfle enfawr i chwalu'r rhwystrau hynny. Mae'r Gweinidog yn ymwybodol bod y pwyllgor wedi mynegi ei bryderon am y comisiwn o ran Deddf Anghenion Dysgu Ychwanegol a'r Tribiwnlys Addysg (Cymru) 2018, a nodaf ei ymateb, a soniodd fod trefniadau manwl ar gyfer gweithredu diwygiadau ADY ôl-16 yn cael eu cwblhau ar hyn o bryd. Byddwn yn ddiolchgar felly pe bai'r Gweinidog yn egluro pryd y mae'n disgwyl i'r trefniadau manwl hyn gael eu gweithredu a sut y bydd y rhain yn effeithio ar bolisi'r comisiwn ar ddarparu ADY yn y sectorau addysg drydyddol ac uwch. Hoffwn wybod hefyd a fydd cyllid ar gyfer interniaethau a phrentisiaethau â chymorth yn cael ei gynnwys yn y polisi hwn. Rwy'n cydnabod bod Llywodraeth Cymru wedi cychwyn diwygiadau sylweddol i ADY yn y sector addysg, a chan fod ADY yn para am oes, mae angen i ni sicrhau bod pontio di-dor o ysgolion i addysg drydyddol ac yna, os yw'n bosibl, ymlaen i weithio. Diolch, Llywydd.
English: Plaid Cymru supports the amendment in this group, certainly amendment 6, which responds to issues that were raised during scrutiny stages. As the Minister and Laura Anne Jones said, it is a period of significant change in ALN, and it's important that this Billl, which introduces major changes to tertiary education, does deliver for our ALN learners. As we know, there are barriers for people with learning disabilities to entering the workforce, and this Bill is a very real opportunity to try to remove some of those barriers, as Laura Anne Jones said. And, as was recognised by the Minister during Stage 2, it is crucial that there is a smooth pathway through statutory education to post-16 learning and to the workforce. As the Minister noted during Stage 2, the commission will have a role to play in assessing whether the resources are adequate to make provision for ALN at a general population level. So, what I would like to hear from the Minister is how he anticipates that the commission will encourage individuals living in Wales to participate in tertiary education.
Welsh: Mae Plaid Cymru'n cefnogi'r gwelliannau yn y grŵp yma, ac yn sicr gwelliant 6, sy'n ymateb, fel y clywon ni, i faterion a godwyd yn ystod Cyfnod 2 o graffu. Fel y dywedodd y Gweinidog a Laura Anne Jones, mae'n gyfnod o ddiwygiad arwyddocaol ym maes ADY, ac mae'n hanfodol i sicrhau bod y Bil hwn, sy'n cyflwyno diwygiadau mawr ym maes addysg drydyddol, yn cyflawni dros ein dysgwyr ADY hefyd. Fel y gwyddom, mae yna rwystrau mawr i bobl ag anableddau dysgu rhag cael mynediad i'r gweithlu, ac mae'r Bil hwn yn gyfle gwirioneddol i geisio gwaredu rhai o'r rhwystrau hynny, fel y dywedodd Laura Anne Jones. Ac fel y cafodd ei gydnabod gan y Gweinidog yn ystod Cyfnod 2, mae'n hanfodol bod yna lwybr dirwystr a llyfn o addysg statudol i gyfleoedd ôl-16 ac yna i'r gweithle. Fel nododd y Gweinidog yn ystod Cyfnod 2, bydd gan y comisiwn rôl i'w chwarae wrth asesu a yw adnoddau yn ddigonol ar gyfer darpariaeth ADY ar lefel poblogaeth gyffredinol. Felly, beth hoffwn i glywed gan y Gweinidog yw sut y mae'n rhagweld y bydd y comisiwn yn annog unigolion sy'n byw yng Nghymru i gyfranogi mewn addysg drydyddol.
English: The Minister to reply to the debate.
Welsh: Y Gweinidog i ymateb i'r ddadl yma.
English: May I thank Laura Anne Jones and Sioned Williams for their support for what we are proposing in this amendment and for recognising the positive and collaborative discussions we had during Stage 2 of the Bill? In terms of the question that Laura Anne Jones asked, it's a matter, of course, for the commission to do this, but the work is already being done in terms of implementing this legislation with regard to actions, and this reform to the Bill will be taken into account in that specific context. And, as Sioned Williams mentioned in her question, it is vitally important to ensure that there is continuity for people with additional learning needs, and this addition does make that clear on the face of the Bill. I'd just like to restate that what was in the Bill when it was introduced ensured that there was a strategic role for the commission to provide across the system, and that was made clear, and that aligns with the reforms in terms of legislation that we already have with regard to ALN. That is what allows us to work with local authorities and others that have specific responsibilities to provide in the context of individuals.
Welsh: Gaf i ddiolch i Laura Anne Jones ac i Sioned Williams am eu cefnogaeth am yr hyn roeddwn i'n cynnig yn y gwelliant hwn ac i gydnabod y drafodaeth bositif a chydweithredol a gafwyd yng Nghyfnod 2 y Bil? O ran y cwestiwn a ofynnodd Laura Anne Jones, mater wrth gwrs i'r comisiwn fydd hyn, ond mae gwaith yn digwydd eisoes o ran rhoi'r Ddeddf hon ar waith o ran camau gweithredol, a bydd y diwygiad hwn i'r Bil yn cael ei gymryd i mewn i ystyriaeth wrth gwrs yn y cyd-destun penodol hwnnw. Ac fel y gwnaeth Sioned Williams grybwyll yn ei chwestiwn hi, mae e wir yn bwysig i sicrhau bod dilyniant i bobl gydag anghenion dysgu ychwanegol, ac mae'r ychwanegiad hwn yn gwneud hynny'n gwbl eglur ar wyneb y Bil. Hoffwn i jest ail-ddweud bod yr hyn oedd yn y Bil pan gafodd ei gyflwyno yn sicrhau bod rôl strategol y comisiwn i ddarparu ar draws y system yn glir a bod hynny'n cyd-fynd â'r diwygiadau o ran y ddeddfwriaeth sydd eisoes gyda ni o ran anghenion dysgu ychwanegol, a hwnnw sydd yn caniatáu gweithio gydag awdurdodau lleol ac eraill sydd â chyfrifoldebau penodol i ddarparu yng nghyd-destun unigolion.
English: The question, therefore, is that amendment 6 be agreed to. Does any Member object to amendment 6?
Welsh: Y cwestiwn nawr, felly, yw: a ddylid derbyn gwelliant 6? A oes unrhyw wrthwynebiad i welliant 6?
English: Is there an objection to amendment 6?
Welsh: A oes gwrthwynebiad i welliant 6?
English: No. Therefore, amendment 6 is agreed.
Welsh: Nac oes, ac felly derbynnir gwelliant 6.
English: Is amendment 7 being moved by the Minister?
Welsh: Ydy gwelliant 7 yn cael ei symud gan y Gweinidog?
English: Amendment 7. Is there an objection to amendment 7? No, therefore amendment 7 is agreed.
Welsh: Gwelliant 7. A oes gwrthwynebiad i welliant 7? Nac oes. Felly, derbynnir gwelliant 7.
English: Amendment 8, is it moved, Minister?
Welsh: Ydy gwelliant 8 yn cael ei symud?
English: Is amendment 9 being moved?
Welsh: Ydy gwelliant 9 yn cael ei symud?
English: Yes. Is there objection to amendment 9? No. Therefore, amendment 9 is agreed.
Welsh: Ydy. A oes gwrthwynebiad i welliant 9? Nac oes. Felly, derbynnir gwelliant 9.
English: Amendment 10, is it moved?
Welsh: Ydy gwelliant 10 yn cael ei symud?
English: Is there objection to amendment 10? No, therefore amendment 10 is also agreed.
Welsh: A oes gwrthwynebiad i welliant 10? Nac oes, felly derbynnir gwelliant 10 hefyd.
English: Group 4 is the next group, and this next group of amendments relates to Welsh-medium provision. Amendment 79 is the lead amendment in this group, and I call on Laura Anne Jones to move the lead amendment and to speak to the group. Laura Jones.
Welsh: Grŵp 4 nawr yw'r grŵp nesaf. Mae'r grŵp yma o welliannau yn ymwneud â darpariaeth cyfrwng Cymraeg. Gwelliant 79 yw'r prif welliant yn y grŵp yma. Dwi'n galw ar Laura Anne Jones i gynnig y prif welliant ac i siarad i'r grŵp. Laura Jones.
English: Diolch, Llywydd. I wish to speak to my amendments 79 and 80. The purpose of these amendments is to strengthen the duty on the commission to promote Welsh-medium tertiary education to reflect the ambitions of 'Cymraeg 2050'. On amendment 79, I have chosen to resubmit this amendment as I still believe it is vital to reflect the commission's important role in reaching the 1 million Welsh speakers objective. As for amendment 80, this is to amend the Minister's Stage 2 amendments. The reason for this is to add clarity and focus to the Minister's amendments with regard to 'Cymraeg 2050', by ensuring that specific mention is made to the provision of resources. I hope the Minister will see the value in this. Diolch.
Welsh: Diolch, Llywydd. Hoffwn siarad am fy ngwelliannau 79 ac 80. Diben y gwelliannau hyn yw cryfhau'r ddyletswydd ar y comisiwn i hyrwyddo addysg drydyddol cyfrwng Cymraeg i adlewyrchu uchelgeisiau 'Cymraeg 2050'. O ran gwelliant 79, rwyf i wedi dewis ailgyflwyno'r gwelliant hwn gan fy mod i'n dal i gredu ei fod yn hanfodol i adlewyrchu swyddogaeth bwysig y comisiwn o ran cyrraedd yr amcan o filiwn o siaradwyr Cymraeg. O ran gwelliant 80, mae hwn i ddiwygio gwelliannau Cyfnod 2 y Gweinidog. Y rheswm am hyn yw i ychwanegu eglurder a ffocws at welliannau'r Gweinidog o ran 'Cymraeg 2050', drwy sicrhau bod cyfeiriad penodol yn cael ei wneud at y ddarpariaeth o adnoddau. Gobeithiaf y bydd y Gweinidog yn gweld y gwerth yn hyn. Diolch.
English: Thank you, Llywydd. As I've stated before, I'm convinced that the language belongs to us all, and that we must keep encouraging and create opportunities to use the Welsh language, particularly in our tertiary education sector. I congratulate Laura Anne Jones on her use of the Welsh language in the Chamber this afternoon. Members will be aware that the strategic duty in respect of promoting Welsh-medium tertiary education was amended at Stage 2, as previously mentioned, expanding the duty to require the commission to encourage demand for and participation in tertiary education through the medium of Welsh. Whilst I welcome the Member's support for resourcing increased participation in Welsh-medium tertiary education, I cannot support amendment 79 nor amendment 80, as the provision of resources is covered by the requirement to encourage demand for and participation in tertiary education provided in Wales through the medium of Welsh. Singling out resources risks making the duty less clear, as it may introduce ambiguity as to whether provision of resources falls within the scope of the duty to encourage demand. In terms of the question that Sioned Williams asked, the explanatory memorandum has now been amended to reflect what was agreed during Stage 2. So, the wider explanation is related to that. So, I call on Members to reject these amendments.
Welsh: Diolch, Llywydd. Fel rwyf wedi dweud o'r blaen, dwi'n gwbl argyhoeddedig bod y Gymraeg yn perthyn i bawb, a rhaid i ni barhau i annog a chreu cyfleoedd i ddefnyddio'r Gymraeg, yn enwedig yn ein sector addysg drydyddol. A gaf i longyfarch Laura Anne Jones ar ei defnydd o'r Gymraeg yn y Siambr y prynhawn yma heddiw? Bydd Aelodau'n ymwybodol bod y dyletswydd strategol mewn perthynas â hyrwyddo addysg drydyddol cyfrwng Cymraeg wedi'i ddiwygio yng Nghyfnod 2, fel y soniwyd eisoes, gan ehangu'r dyletswydd i'w gwneud yn ofynnol i'r comisiwn annog y galw am a chyfranogiad mewn addysg drydyddol drwy gyfrwng y Gymraeg. Er fy mod i'n croesawu cefnogaeth yr Aelod ar gyfer adnoddau i gynyddu cyfranogiad mewn addysg cyfrwng Cymraeg, ni allaf gefnogi gwelliant 79 na gwelliant 80, gan fod darparu adnoddau wedi'i gynnwys yn y gofyniad i annog y galw am a chyfranogiad mewn addysg drydyddol a ddarperir yng Nghymru drwy gyfrwng y Gymraeg. Byddai nodi risg o ran adnoddau yn golygu bod y dyletswydd yn llai clir, gan y gallai gyflwyno amwysedd ynghylch a yw darparu adnoddau yn dod o fewn cwmpas y dyletswydd i annog galw. O ran y cwestiwn oddi wrth Sioned Williams, mae'r memorandwm esboniadol nawr wedi cael ei ddiwygio i adlewyrchu'r hyn a gytunwyd yng Nghyfnod 2. Felly, mae'r esboniad ehangach ynghlwm yn hwnnw. Felly, rwy'n galw ar Aelodau i wrthod y gwelliannau hyn.
English: Diolch. Diolch, Minister. I'm disappointed the Minister has rejected my amendment, as it disagrees with the notion of specific mention of resource provision in our pursuit of 'Cymraeg 2050' objectives. Even though I agree with a lot of what the Member for Plaid Cymru just said, I'm disappointed that the Minister has rejected my amendment to his Stage 2 amendment, as, in my view, it would only serve to improve the amendment. Therefore, I ask Members to support it.
Welsh: Diolch. Diolch, Gweinidog. Rwy'n siomedig bod y Gweinidog wedi gwrthod fy ngwelliant, gan ei fod yn anghytuno â'r syniad o sôn yn benodol am ddarparu adnoddau yn ein hymgais i fodloni amcanion 'Cymraeg 2050'. Er fy mod i'n cytuno â llawer o'r hyn y mae'r Aelod dros Blaid Cymru newydd ei ddweud, rwy'n siomedig bod y Gweinidog wedi gwrthod fy ngwelliant i'w welliant Cyfnod 2, oherwydd, yn fy marn i, ni fyddai ond yn gwella'r gwelliant. Felly, gofynnaf i'r Aelodau ei gefnogi.
English: Amendment 79. Does any Member object? [ Objection.] There are objections. We will therefore move to a vote on amendment 79. Open the vote. Close the vote. In favour 15, no abstentions, 38 against. Therefore, amendment 79 is not agreed.
Welsh: Gwelliant 79, felly. Y cwestiwn yw: a ddylid derbyn gwelliant 79? A oes gwrthwynebiad? [ Gwrthwynebiad. ] Oes. Ac felly cymrwn ni bleidlais ar welliant 79. Agor y bleidlais. Cau'r bleidlais. O blaid 15, neb yn ymatal, 38 yn erbyn. Felly, mae gwelliant 79 wedi'i wrthod.
English: Amendment 11 - is it moved, Minister?
Welsh: Gwelliant 11 yn cael ei symud gan y Gweinidog?
English: It is. Amendment 11. Are there any objections? There are none. Therefore, amendment 11 is agreed.
Welsh: Ydy. Gwelliant 11 - amendment 11. A oes gwrthwynebiad? Nac oes. Does yna ddim gwrthwynebiad i welliant 11.
English: Amendment 80 in the name of Laura Anne Jones. Is it moved?
Welsh: Gwelliant 80 yn enw Laura Anne Jones. Ydy e'n cael ei symud?
English: It's moved. Are there any objections to amendment 80? [ Objection. ] There is an objection. We will therefore move to a vote on amendment 80. Open the vote.
Welsh: Symud. A oes gwrthwynebiad i welliant 80? [ Gwrthwynebiad. ] Felly, mae yna wrthwynebiad. Fe gawn ni bleidlais ar welliant 80. Agor y bleidlais.
English: Close the vote. In favour 17, no abstentions, 36 against. Therefore, amendment 80 is not agreed.
Welsh: Cau'r bleidlais. O blaid 17, neb yn ymatal, 36 yn erbyn. Mae gwelliant 80 wedi'i wrthod.
English: Group 5 is the next group of amendments, and this group relates to institutional autonomy, academic freedom and freedom of speech. Amendment 166 is the lead amendment in this group. I call on Sioned Williams to move the lead amendment and to speak to the group. Sioned Williams.
Welsh: Grŵp 5 yw'r grŵp nesaf o welliannau. Mae'r grŵp yma'n ymwneud ag awtonomi sefydliadol, rhyddid academaidd a rhyddid mynegiant. Gwelliant 166 yw'r prif welliant yn y grŵp yma. Dwi'n galw ar Sioned Williams i gynnig y prif welliant hwnnw ac i siarad i'r grŵp. Sioned Williams.
English: I'd like to start by thanking Sioned Williams for tabling this debate. I would like to move amendments 81, 82, 83 and 84. The purpose of these amendments is to reflect the content of clause 1 of the UK Higher Education (Freedom of Speech) Bill, covering the governing bodies of higher education providers in Wales. This would mean that governing bodies must take steps to secure the freedom of speech within the law for staff members, students and visiting speakers. They also serve to compel governing bodies of tertiary education providers in Wales to maintain the code of practice setting out the matters referred to in subsection 2. The code of practice would set out matters including the providers' values relating to freedom of speech and the upholding of it, procedures to be followed by staff and students in organising meetings and activities on the providers' premises, and any other matters that each governing body deems appropriate. The amendments also serve to ensure the defence of academic freedom and the freedom of speech within the Bill, as well as make it clear that frivolous or vexatious claims cannot be brought at private law. I would ask Members to support our amendments.
Welsh: Hoffwn ddechrau drwy ddiolch i Sioned Williams am gyflwyno'r ddadl hon. Hoffwn gynnig gwelliannau 81, 82, 83 ac 84. Diben y gwelliannau hyn yw adlewyrchu cynnwys cymal 1 Bil Addysg Uwch y DU (Rhyddid i Lefaru), sy'n cwmpasu cyrff llywodraethu darparwyr addysg uwch yng Nghymru. Byddai hyn yn golygu bod yn rhaid i gyrff llywodraethu gymryd camau i sicrhau rhyddid i lefaru o fewn y gyfraith i aelodau staff, myfyrwyr a siaradwyr gwadd. Maen nhw hefyd yn gorfodi cyrff llywodraethu darparwyr addysg drydyddol yng Nghymru i gynnal y cod ymarfer sy'n nodi'r materion y cyfeirir atyn nhw yn is-adran 2. Byddai'r cod ymarfer yn nodi materion gan gynnwys gwerthoedd y darparwyr o ran rhyddid i lefaru a'i gynnal, gweithdrefnau i'w dilyn gan staff a myfyrwyr wrth drefnu cyfarfodydd a gweithgareddau ar safle'r darparwyr, ac unrhyw faterion eraill y mae pob corff llywodraethu yn barnu eu bod yn briodol. Mae'r gwelliannau hefyd yn sicrhau amddiffyniad o ryddid academaidd a'r rhyddid i lefaru yn y Bil, yn ogystal â'i gwneud yn eglur na ellir cyflwyno hawliadau gwamal neu flinderus mewn cyfraith breifat. Byddwn yn gofyn i'r Aelodau gefnogi ein gwelliannau.
