English: Okay. Diolch yn fawr, Llywydd. I'm very pleased to take part in this debate today, and it's really good to see that we've got to this stage with such an important campaign as 20's Plenty, and I would like to join Lee Waters in paying tribute to Rod King, who's championed the cause so extensively and widely for so long, and also, of course, thank Phil Jones and the taskforce, and to thank Lee Waters himself, because Lee has undoubtedly given fresh and added impetus to this campaign and these proposals as Minister, so thank you very much for that, Lee. As others, my interest in the campaign firstly came from local communities who were campaigning for those speed limits, and that certainly brought home to me the deprivation factors involved, because there were campaigners on roads in local council estates where there had been, sadly, fatalities involving children, where there were roads through the estates with cars parked on both sides - there still are - children playing, and it's so easy, of course, for a child to chase a ball into the road from between parked cars, and, if a car is doing any considerable speed at all, it's very difficult to stop in time. So, I really do think that, essentially, this is a road safety campaign, and it stands on its own merits in that regard. But there are also other very important benefits from a default 20 mph speed limit in our residential areas, and I think a lot of that is about reclaiming the streets, as others have said. It's about allowing children to go out and play freely and parents to feel confident in allowing children to do that; it's about older people feeling more comfortable walking around their local areas, in terms of their road safety; it's about active travel, allowing walking and scooting and cycling, whether it's to school or work or local shops, and people feeling more comfortable, safe and secure in doing that themselves or allowing their children to do it. So, the benefits of this policy I think are very widespread: it's about better community life, it's about people getting to know people who live around them to a greater extent. We've seen some of that impact through the pandemic and I think it's something that could be further done, fostered, also through a 20's Plenty policy. People have referred to enforcement, Llywydd, and I think that, hopefully, in the longer term, it will become self-enforcing to some extent, as other similar measures have been, but, certainly in the short term, there will be a need to make sure the police and others are enforcing this policy properly, and that will have resource implications. But I think it's also about a marketing, a communications and awareness-raising campaign. We do need a strong strategy on that initially, I think, to make sure that everybody is aware of the change, the reasons for it, and, hopefully, they will be supportive of it. But we do need to get key messages across if we are going to have that support and backing. I don't know whether Lee might be able to say a little bit more about the rolling out of pilots, in terms of the basis on which that would take place - which local authority areas and which areas within local authorities will see those initial pilots. I'd also like to support what Russell George and others said about rural areas, because we also have a very strong campaign around the A48 dual carriageway in Newport in terms of villages and village roads off the A48, following, again, a fatal accident, and a man, Julian Smith, who sadly lost his daughter in an accident, is leading a very strong local campaign and he's pointing out very strongly that having national speed limits on roads through villages doesn't make any sense at all when you have families living there. Sixty miles per hour is just totally excessive and it does seem to be very difficult to get necessary change. There are lower limits obviously in Wales on some of these village roads, but sadly there are many that are still subject to the national speed limit, and it does seem very difficult to get lower speeds on those roads. So, I'm very grateful, Llywydd, for the opportunity to speak in this debate today. I think 20's Plenty is a very progressive policy. I think having that default 20 mph limit on our residential roads right across Wales will put our country in a very positive light, and deliver real benefits for our communities.
Welsh: Iawn. Diolch yn fawr, Llywydd. Rwy'n falch iawn o gymryd rhan yn y ddadl hon heddiw, ac mae'n dda iawn gweld ein bod ni wedi cyrraedd y cam hwn gydag ymgyrch mor bwysig â 20's Plenty, a hoffwn i ymuno â Lee Waters wrth dalu teyrnged i Rod King, sydd wedi hyrwyddo'r achos mor helaeth ac eang ers cyhyd, a hefyd, wrth gwrs, diolch i Phil Jones a'r tasglu, a diolch i Lee Waters ei hun, gan fod Lee yn ddi-os wedi rhoi ysgogiad ffres ac ychwanegol i'r ymgyrch hon a'r cynigion hyn fel Gweinidog, felly diolch yn fawr i chi am hynny, Lee. Fel eraill, daeth fy niddordeb yn yr ymgyrch yn y lle cyntaf o gymunedau lleol a oedd yn ymgyrchu dros y terfynau cyflymder hynny, ac fe wnaeth hynny yn sicr dynnu fy sylw at y ffactorau amddifadedd sy'n gysylltiedig â hyn, oherwydd roedd ymgyrchwyr ar ffyrdd mewn ystadau cyngor lleol lle bu, yn anffodus, marwolaethau plant, lle'r oedd ffyrdd drwy'r stadau â cheir wedi'u parcio ar y ddwy ochr - maen nhw'n dal i fod felly - a phlant yn chwarae, ac mae mor hawdd, wrth gwrs, i blentyn ddilyn pêl i'r ffordd rhwng ceir wedi eu parcio, ac, os yw car yn symud ar unrhyw gyflymder sylweddol o gwbl, mae'n anodd iawn stopio mewn pryd. Felly, rwyf i wir yn credu mai ymgyrch diogelwch ar y ffyrdd yw hon yn y bôn, a'i bod yn ddigon teilwng yn hynny o beth. Ond mae manteision pwysig iawn eraill hefyd yn deillio o derfyn cyflymder diofyn o 20mya yn ein hardaloedd preswyl, ac rwy'n credu bod llawer o hynny yn ymwneud ag adennill y strydoedd, fel y mae eraill wedi ei ddweud. Mae'n fater o alluogi plant i fynd allan a chwarae yn rhydd a rhieni i deimlo yn hyderus wrth ganiatáu i blant wneud hynny; mae'n fater o alluogi pobl hŷn i deimlo'n fwy cyfforddus wrth gerdded o amgylch eu hardaloedd lleol, o ran eu diogelwch ar y ffyrdd; mae'n fater o deithio llesol, gan ganiatáu cerdded, sgwtio a beicio, boed hynny i'r ysgol, i'r gwaith neu i siopau lleol, a bod pobl yn teimlo yn fwy cyfforddus, saff a diogel wrth wneud hynny eu hunain neu adael i'w plant wneud hynny. Felly, rwyf i'n credu bod manteision y polisi hwn yn eang iawn: mae'n fater o well bywyd cymunedol, mae'n fater o bobl yn dod i adnabod mwy o bobl sy'n byw o'u cwmpas. Rydym ni wedi gweld rhywfaint o'r effaith honno drwy'r pandemig ac rwy'n credu ei fod yn rhywbeth y gellid ei wneud yn fwy, a'i feithrin, hefyd drwy'r polisi 20's Plenty. Mae pobl wedi cyfeirio at orfodaeth, Llywydd, ac rwyf i'n credu, rwy'n gobeithio, yn y tymor hirach, y caiff ei hunanorfodi i ryw raddau, fel sydd wedi digwydd gyda mesurau tebyg eraill, ond, yn sicr yn y tymor byr, bydd angen sicrhau bod yr heddlu ac eraill yn gorfodi'r polisi hwn yn iawn, a bydd i hynny oblygiadau o ran adnoddau. Ond rwyf i hefyd yn meddwl ei fod yn ymwneud ag ymgyrch farchnata, cyfathrebu a chodi ymwybyddiaeth. Mae angen strategaeth gref ar gyfer hynny arnom i ddechrau, yn fy marn i, er mwyn sicrhau bod pawb yn ymwybodol o'r newid, y rhesymau drosto, a, gobeithio, byddan nhw'n ei gefnog. Ond mae angen i ni gyfleu'r prif negeseuon os ydym ni am gael y gefnogaeth a'r cymorth hwnnw. Nid wyf i'n gwybod a allai Lee ddweud ychydig mwy am gyflwyno cynlluniau treialu, o ran ar ba sail y byddai hynny'n digwydd - pa ardaloedd awdurdodau lleol a pha ardaloedd o fewn awdurdodau lleol a fydd yn gweld y cynlluniau treialu cychwynnol hynny. Hoffwn i hefyd ategu'r hyn a ddywedodd Russell George ac eraill ynghylch ardaloedd gwledig, oherwydd bod gennym ni hefyd ymgyrch gref iawn o gwmpas ffordd ddeuol yr A48 yng Nghasnewydd o ran pentrefi a ffyrdd pentref oddi ar yr A48, yn dilyn, unwaith eto, damwain angheuol, ac mae dyn, Julian Smith, a gollodd ei ferch mewn damwain, yn anffodus, yn arwain ymgyrch leol gref iawn ac mae'n nodi'n gryf iawn nad yw terfynau cyflymder cenedlaethol ar ffyrdd drwy bentrefi yn gwneud dim synnwyr o gwbl pan fo gennych chi deuluoedd yn byw yno. Mae chwe deg milltir yr awr yn llawer gormod ac mae yn ymddangos ei bod yn anodd iawn gwneud y newid sydd ei angen. Mae terfynau is yng Nghymru ar rai o'r ffyrdd pentref hyn yn amlwg, ond yn anffodus mae llawer sy'n dal i fod yn destun y terfyn cyflymder cenedlaethol, ac mae'n ymddangos yn anodd iawn cael cyflymderau is ar y ffyrdd hynny. Felly, rwy'n ddiolchgar iawn, Llywydd, am y cyfle i gael siarad yn y ddadl hon heddiw. Rwy'n credu bod 20's Plenty yn bolisi blaengar iawn. Rwy'n credu y bydd cael y terfyn 20mya diofyn ar ein ffyrdd preswyl ledled Cymru yn edrych yn dda iawn ar ein gwlad, ac yn sicrhau manteision gwirioneddol i'n cymunedau.
