English: I'd like to congratulate the Counsel General on his great efforts on behalf of us and on behalf of Wales in the Supreme Court. I think his presence was absolutely justified and was very significant in reaching the decision that was made. I welcome his statement. I think it's absolutely, vitally important that such a momentous decision is decided on in Parliament. He said in his statement that we now must go forward and have full, open debate, and there must be no talk about unamendable motions. I'm sure he would agree that it is so important that the motion can be amended, because that can enable full debate. Is he confident now that we are moving forward to a full, open debate? Most of the questions I had about the Sewel convention have already been asked and answered, but I agree very strongly about the importance of the negotiation between the four countries, and how important that is and how crucial it is that we do reach a consensus. But would the Counsel General agree that there must be at least a possibility that a consensus may not be reached with all four of the nations, and what does he think would be the result of that situation?
Welsh: Hoffwn i longyfarch y Cwnsler Cyffredinol ar ei ymdrechion mawr ar ein rhan ni ac ar ran Cymru yn y Goruchaf Lys. Rwy'n credu bod ei bresenoldeb wedi ei gyfiawnhau'n llwyr ac yn bwysig iawn wrth ddod i'r penderfyniad a wnaed. Rwy'n croesawu ei ddatganiad. Rwy'n credu ei fod yn hanfodol bwysig bod penderfyniad tyngedfennol o'r fath yn cael ei benderfynu arno yn y Senedd. Dywedodd yn ei ddatganiad bod yn rhaid i ni fynd ymlaen nawr a chael dadl lawn, agored, ac ni ddylai fod unrhyw sôn am gynigion na ellir eu gwella. Rwy'n siŵr y byddai'n cytuno ei bod yn bwysig iaawn bod modd gwella'r cynnig hwn, oherwydd gall hynny alluogi trafodaeth lawn. A yw'n hyderus erbyn hyn ein bod yn symud ymlaen at ddadl lawn ac agored? Gofynnwyd ac atebwyd y rhan fwyaf o'r cwestiynau oedd gennyf am gonfensiwn Sewel eisoes. Ond rwy'n cytuno'n gryf iawn am bwysigrwydd y cyd-drafod rhwng y pedair gwlad, a pha mor bwysig yw hynny a pha mor hanfodol yw hi ein bod yn cyrraedd consensws. Ond a fyddai'r Cwnsler Cyffredinol yn cytuno bod posibilrwydd o leiaf na fydd modd dod i gytundeb â phob un o'r pedair gwlad, a beth yn ei farn ef fyddai canlyniad y sefyllfa honno?
English: Can I just say that the judgment, obviously, sets the foundations that enable us to move forward? As I've said, it now opens the door and establishes a clear framework, and hopefully there will be consensus and agreement in respect of all the interests of all parts of the United Kingdom, and achieving consensus and endorsement should be a fundamental part of that. In terms of the implications as to a lack of consensus, well, I'm a real optimist, because I think most people - and across parties - do want to see us get through this, and to succeed in respect of common interests. It is the responsibility of everyone to play their part within that, so I think that is achievable. But what I think has been important about our role to date is that we had a very specific Welsh voice in these processes. Without that, without this Assembly, without a Welsh Government, we would not have had that voice. We would not have been able to make those representations, and we would not be able to stand up in the way we are doing. That doesn't mean that things ahead are easy, that there aren't going to be considerable difficulties, that we don't have to be alert, because, as I've said, we're on a constitutional helter-skelter, we are in a process that is changing, and there are going to be challenges we have to face up to. But I'm going to be an optimist on this, because I think that is our role and I think it is our role to achieve the best we can for the Welsh people. I think the White Paper that is going to be discussed shortly is going to be a major contribution to that debate and to that process.
Welsh: A gaf i ddweud bod y dyfarniad, yn amlwg, yn gosod y sylfeini sy'n ein galluogi i symud ymlaen? Fel y dywedais, mae bellach yn agor y drws ac yn sefydlu fframwaith clir, a gobeithio y bydd consensws a chytundeb o ran holl fuddiannau pob rhan o'r Deyrnas Unedig. Dylai cyflawni consensws a chymeradwyaeth fod yn rhan sylfaenol o hynny. O ran y goblygiadau o ran diffyg consensws, wel, rwy'n optimydd gwirioneddol, gan fy mod yn credu bod y rhan fwyaf o bobl - ac ar draws y pleidiau - yn dymuno ein gweld yn mynd drwy hyn, ac yn llwyddo o ran buddiannau cyffredin. Mae'n gyfrifoldeb ar bawb i chwarae eu rhan, felly credaf ei fod yn gyraeddadwy. Ond yr hyn y credaf sydd wedi bod yn bwysig am ein swyddogaeth hyd yn hyn yw bod gennym lais Cymreig penodol iawn yn y prosesau hyn. Heb hynny, heb y Cynulliad hwn, heb Lywodraeth Cymru, ni fyddem wedi cael y llais hwnnw. Ni fyddem wedi gallu gwneud y sylwadau hynny, ac ni fyddem wedi gallu herio yn y modd yr ydym yn ei wneud. Nid yw hynny'n golygu bod y pethau sydd o'n blaenau yn hawdd, na fydd anawsterau sylweddol, nad oes rhaid i ni fod yn effro, oherwydd, fel y dywedais, ni allwn ragweld beth fydd yn digwydd i'r strwythur cyfansoddiadol, mae'r broses yn newid, ac fe fydd heriau y mae'n rhaid i ni eu hwynebu. Ond rwy'n mynd i fod yn optimydd, oherwydd credaf mai dyna yw ein swyddogaeth, ac rwy'n credu mai ein swyddogaeth ni yw cyflawni'r gorau y gallwn i bobl Cymru. Rwy'n meddwl bod y Papur Gwyn a gaiff ei drafod cyn bo hir yn mynd i fod yn gyfraniad pwysig at y ddadl honno ac at y broses honno.
English: The next item on our agenda's the statement by the First Minister on 'Securing Wales' Future', transition from the European Union to a new relationship with Europe. I call on the First Minister, Carwyn Jones.
Welsh: Yr eitem nesaf ar ein hagenda ni yw'r datganiad gan y Prif Weinidog ar 'Sicrhau Dyfodol Cymru', symud o'r Undeb Ewropeaidd at berthynas newydd ag Ewrop. Galwaf ar y Prif Weinidog, felly, Carwyn Jones.
English: Can I thank the First Minister for his statement? I warmly welcome this White Paper and I'm also very pleased that the Welsh Government has worked with Plaid Cymru to develop this. I think that the threat of Brexit is so immense that it is going to be essential for all of us who want to put the interests of Wales and our communities first to work together. I've got two particular questions. As the first Minister knows, my constituency is very dependent on manufacturing, in particular on automotive. I welcome the commitment in this document to maintain the widest possible access to the single market, but can I ask what other steps the First Minister intends to take to ensure that the automotive sector is protected, including how he intends to raise the needs of the automotive sector in his discussions with the UK Government? Last week, I attended a conference at Swansea University to look at the implications of Brexit on children and young people in Wales. Concerns were expressed at that conference that so far there seems to have been fairly little consideration at Government level of the implications for children and young people, and I'm sure that you're also aware that many young people feel very angry that a decision so crucial to their futures was taken for them by others voting in the referendum. I welcome the commitment in this document to ensuring the views of children and young people are listened to, but can I just ask for some more detail, please, on how the Welsh Government intends to make this a reality going forward?
Welsh: A gaf i ddiolch i'r Prif Weinidog am ei ddatganiad? Rwy'n croesawu'r Papur Gwyn hwn yn gynnes ac rwyf hefyd yn falch iawn bod Llywodraeth Cymru wedi gweithio gyda Phlaid Cymru i'w ddatblygu. Rwy'n meddwl bod bygythiad Brexit mor enfawr fel y bydd yn hanfodol i bob un ohonom sydd eisiau rhoi buddiannau Cymru a'n cymunedau yn gyntaf i weithio gyda'n gilydd. Mae gen i ddau gwestiwn penodol. Fel y mae'r prif Weinidog yn gwybod, mae fy etholaeth i yn ddibynnol iawn ar weithgynhyrchu, yn enwedig gweithgynhyrchu modurol. Rwy'n croesawu'r ymrwymiad yn y ddogfen hon i gynnal y mynediad ehangaf posibl i'r farchnad sengl, ond a gaf i ofyn pa gamau eraill y mae'r Prif Weinidog yn bwriadu eu cymryd i sicrhau bod y sector modurol wedi'i ddiogelu, gan gynnwys sut y mae'n bwriadu sôn am anghenion y sector modurol yn ei drafodaethau â Llywodraeth y DU? Yr wythnos diwethaf, bûm mewn cynhadledd ym Mhrifysgol Abertawe i edrych ar oblygiadau Brexit i blant a phobl ifanc yng Nghymru. Mynegwyd pryderon yn y gynhadledd honno nad yw'n ymddangos bod y Llywodraeth wedi rhoi rhyw lawer o ystyriaeth i'r goblygiadau i blant a phobl ifanc, ac rwy'n siŵr eich bod hefyd yn ymwybodol bod llawer o bobl ifanc yn teimlo'n ddig iawn bod penderfyniad mor hanfodol i'w dyfodol wedi'i wneud drostynt gan bobl eraill a bleidleisiodd yn y refferendwm. Rwy'n croesawu'r ymrwymiad yn y ddogfen hon i sicrhau ein bod yn gwrando ar farn plant a phobl ifanc, ond a gaf i ofyn am ychydig mwy o fanylion, os gwelwch yn dda, am sut y mae Llywodraeth Cymru yn bwriadu sicrhau bod hyn yn realiti yn y dyfodol?
English: The next item on our agenda is a statement by the Cabinet Secretary for Education on reducing infant class sizes and raising standards, and I call on the Cabinet Secretary, Kirsty Williams.
Welsh: Yr eitem nesaf ar ein hagenda ni yw'r datganiad gan Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet dros Addysg ar leihau maint dosbarthiadau babanod a chodi safonau, ac rwy'n galw ar yr Ysgrifennydd Cabinet, Kirsty Williams.
English: Thank you, Presiding Officer. Since becoming Cabinet Secretary, it has been a privilege to visit schools and meet teachers, pupils and parents right across the country. A particular highlight was the opening of the new school at Llandysul. Like colleagues across this Chamber, I'm always impressed by the dedication, the enthusiasm and the ambition expressed by the vast majority of the teaching profession, not just for their own school and pupils, but for young people everywhere in our education system. As I have stated in this Chamber before, I am clear that no school or education system can be stronger than its teachers and their teaching. That is why we need to give teachers and school leaders the tools they need for the job. This includes transforming initial teacher training education, launching new professional standards, a national approach to professional learning and development, and incentivising new and mature graduates into the profession.
Welsh: Diolch i chi, Lywydd. Ers fy mhenodi'n Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet, mae wedi bod yn fraint ymweld ag ysgolion a chwrdd ag athrawon, disgyblion a rhieni ar draws y wlad. Un uchafbwynt penodol oedd agor yr ysgol newydd yn Llandysul. Yn debyg i'm cydweithwyr yn y Siambr hon, rwyf bob amser yn edmygu ymroddiad, brwdfrydedd ac uchelgais y mwyafrif helaeth o'r proffesiwn addysgu, nid yn unig ar gyfer eu hysgol a'u disgyblion eu hunain, ond ar gyfer pobl ifanc ym mhob rhan o'n system addysg. Fel y dywedais yn y Siambr hon o'r blaen, rwy'n cydnabod na all unrhyw ysgol na system addysg fod yn gryfach na'u hathrawon a'u haddysgu nhw. Dyna pam y mae angen i ni roi'r offer sydd eu hangen ar athrawon a phenaethiaid ysgolion ar gyfer y swydd. Mae hyn yn cynnwys trawsnewid addysg gychwynnol ar gyfer hyfforddi athrawon, lansio safonau proffesiynol newydd, dull cenedlaethol o ddysgu a datblygu proffesiynol, a chymell graddedigion newydd ac aeddfed i fod yn rhan o'r proffesiwn.
English: Can you come to a conclusion, please?
Welsh: A wnewch chi ddod i gasgliad ar hyn, os gwelwch yn dda?
English: This is my final, final point. I have to say, Cabinet Secretary, I've been an Assembly Member for 10 years now and not one person has ever, on the doorstep, and not one teacher, either, has ever spoken to me to say that class size is the pressing issue that we need to address in Wales. And I have to say, I agree with Julie Morgan on that: no-one has spoken to her, either, in the years that she has been an MP or AM. So I wonder where this pressing issue is in your postbag, because there's no evidence of it in mine.
Welsh: Dyma fy mhwynt olaf un. Mae'n rhaid i mi ddweud, Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet, rwyf wedi bod yn Aelod o'r Cynulliad ers 10 mlynedd bellach, ac nid oes neb erioed, ar garreg y drws, ac nid oes yr un athro, ychwaith, erioed wedi siarad â mi i ddweud mai maint dosbarth yw'r mater pwysig y mae angen inni fynd i'r afael ag ef yng Nghymru. Ac mae'n rhaid i mi ddweud, rwy'n cytuno â Julie Morgan ar y canlynol: nid oes unrhyw un wedi siarad â hi, ychwaith, yn y blynyddoedd y mae hi wedi bod yn AS neu'n AC. Felly, tybed lle mae'r mater pwysig hwn yn eich bag post, oherwydd nid oes tystiolaeth ohono yn fy un i.
English: I'd like to thank the Cabinet Secretary for her statement here today. As a former teacher myself, just like my colleague Rhianon Passmore, the Member for Islwyn, I know first-hand that this is a key issue for my colleagues in classrooms across Wales. I also know that class size is a really important issue on the doorstep in my constituency, and I'm sure in constituencies across the country too. I particularly welcome the extra detail that you've provided here in the Chamber this afternoon around the way that the policy could work with our childcare offer across Wales, too. That was an issue that was actually raised with me on a visit to Craig yr Hesg school, which is a really good pathfinder school in my constituency that actually trains up other schools with excellent practice. My question for you this afternoon, Cabinet Secretary, is very much in line with the question from my colleague Llyr Gruffydd, and it's around the practical way that the policy could be implemented. I, too, was concerned about some possible issues around the physical space that would be necessary to split classes in order to deliver the policy and I wonder whether you'd considered how that could possibly be resolved by working with the twenty-first century schools programme that the Government is currently offering?
Welsh: Hoffwn ddiolch i Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet am ei datganiad yma heddiw. Fel cyn athro fy hun, yn union fel fy nghyd-Aelod Rhiannon Passmore, yr Aelod dros Islwyn, rwy'n gwybod o brofiad personol bod hwn yn fater allweddol i fy nghydweithwyr i mewn ystafelloedd dosbarth ledled Cymru. Rwyf hefyd yn gwybod bod maint dosbarthiadau yn fater pwysig iawn ar stepen drws fy etholaeth i, ac rwy'n siŵr mewn etholaethau ledled y wlad hefyd. Croesawaf yn arbennig y manylion ychwanegol yr ydych wedi'u rhoi yma yn y Siambr y prynhawn yma hefyd ynglŷn â sut y gallai'r polisi weithio gyda'n cynnig gofal plant ledled Cymru. Roedd hwnnw'n fater a godwyd mewn gwirionedd gyda mi ar ymweliad ag Ysgol Craig yr Hesg, sy'n ysgol fraenaru dda iawn yn fy etholaeth i sydd mewn gwirionedd yn hyfforddi ysgolion eraill gan ddefnyddio arferion rhagorol. Mae fy nghwestiwn i chi y prynhawn yma, Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet, yn dilyn yr un trywydd â chwestiwn fy nghydweithiwr Llyr Gruffydd, ac mae'n ymwneud â'r ffordd ymarferol y gellid rhoi'r polisi ar waith. Roeddwn i, hefyd, yn bryderus am broblemau posibl ynghylch y gofod ffisegol y byddai ei angen i rannu dosbarthiadau er mwyn cyflawni'r polisi, a tybed a ydych chi wedi ystyried sut y gellid datrys hynny o bosibl drwy weithio gyda'r rhaglen ysgolion yr unfed ganrif ar hugain y mae'r Llywodraeth yn ei chynnig ar hyn o bryd?
English: Cabinet Secretary, I do find the criticisms of the lack of an evidence base coming from Plaid Cymru rather ironic when they've used the budget process to insist on £50 million for a road scheme with very low benefit to cost ratios to shore up their political base. Any concerns I had about this policy have been assuaged by the changes you've made, and I very much welcome the extra targeting that you put in place, and I warmly welcome extra funding for schools. In my constituency, schools have been having to make redundancies last year, and again this year; a £3.7 million cut by the Plaid Cymru council, and a potential 135 members of staff losing their jobs. So, what safeguards can you put in place to make sure that the money that's going to be targeted at class size reduction isn't swallowed up by softening the blow of Plaid cuts in Llanelli?
Welsh: Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet, rwy'n credu bod y feirniadaeth ynglŷn â diffyg tystiolaeth gan Plaid Cymru braidd yn eironig gan eu bod wedi defnyddio proses y gyllideb i fynnu £50 miliwn ar gyfer cynllun ffordd â budd isel iawn i gymarebau cost er mwyn cynnal ei sylfaen wleidyddol. Lleddfwyd unrhyw bryderon a oedd gennyf ynglŷn â'r polisi hwn gan y newidiadau a wnaethoch chi. Rwy'n croesawu'n fawr y targedau ychwanegol y byddwch yn eu rhoi ar waith, ac rwy'n croesawu'n wresog y cyllid ychwanegol i ysgolion. Yn fy etholaeth i, mae ysgolion wedi gorfod diswyddo staff y llynedd, ac unwaith eto eleni; toriad o £3.7 miliwn gan gyngor Plaid Cymru, a'r posibilrwydd y bydd 135 o aelodau staff yn colli eu swyddi. Felly, pa fesurau diogelu allwch chi eu rhoi ar waith i sicrhau na fydd yr arian a gaiff ei dargedu i leihau maint dosbarthiadau yn cael ei lyncu drwy leddfu ergyd toriadau Plaid yn Llanelli?
English: We move on to item 8 on the agenda, which is the debate on working with communities to create better local environments, and I call on the Cabinet Secretary for Environment and Rural Affairs to move the motion - Lesley Griffiths.
Welsh: Symudwn ymlaen at eitem 8 ar yr agenda, sef y ddadl ar weithio gyda chymunedau i greu amgylcheddau lleol gwell, a galwaf ar Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet dros yr Amgylchedd a Materion Gwledig i gynnig y cynnig - Lesley Griffiths.
English: Thank you. I have selected the amendment to the motion. I call on David Melding to move amendment 1, tabled in the name of Paul Davies.
Welsh: Diolch. Rwyf wedi dewis y gwelliant i'r cynnig. Galwaf ar David Melding i gynnig gwelliant 1, a gyflwynwyd yn enw Paul Davies.
English: I'm pleased to say that one school has agreed to set aside a piece of its land for a community garden. My ambition is that all schools will be doing something along these lines to inspire people across this mainly quite financially challenged community to start to grow their own in their own gardens, or in easily accessible collective spaces. This is a fantastically important subject in the face of many challenges that are buffeting our communities, and I hope we'll have cause to reflect in depth on the benefit of greening our environment in all our communities.
Welsh: Rwy'n falch o ddweud bod un ysgol wedi cytuno i neilltuo darn o'i thir ar gyfer gardd gymunedol. Fy uchelgais yw y bydd pob ysgol yn gwneud rhywbeth tebyg i ysbrydoli pobl yn y gymuned hon sydd â rhannau helaeth ohoni yn wynebu her ariannol i ddechrau tyfu eu cynnyrch eu hunain yn eu gerddi eu hunain, neu mewn mannau cyfun hygyrch. Mae hwn yn bwnc anhygoel o bwysig yn wyneb yr heriau niferus sy'n effeithio ar ein cymunedau, ac rwy'n gobeithio y bydd gennym achos i fyfyrio yn fanwl ar y fantais o droi ein hamgylchedd yn wyrdd yn ein holl gymunedau.
English: I call on the Cabinet Secretary for Environment and Rural Affairs to reply to the debate - Lesley Griffiths.
Welsh: Galwaf ar Ysgrifennydd Cabinet dros yr Amgylchedd a Materion Gwledig i ymateb i'r ddadl - Lesley Griffiths.
English: Starbucks, yes. [Laughter.] They were telling me about a pilot that they've got in London, where they have bins where people can tip it if there's something left in the cup, and then, in the next bin, they can recycle their cup. So, there is work going on out there. I said that we'd be very happy to have a pilot here in Wales, going forward. So, I think it's very clear, from the consensus in the Chamber, that the economic, the social, the environmental and the cultural benefits, in relation to this issue, are there for everyone to see. Diolch.
Welsh: Starbucks, ie. [Chwerthin.] Roedden nhw'n dweud wrthyf am gynllun treialu sydd ganddyn nhw yn Llundain, lle mae biniau ar gael i bobl wagio unrhyw beth sydd ar ôl yn y gwpan, a bin arall wedyn lle mae modd ailgylchu eu cwpan. Felly, mae gwaith yn digwydd. Dywedais y byddem yn hapus iawn i gael cynllun treialu yma yng Nghymru, yn y dyfodol. Felly, credaf ei fod yn glir iawn, o'r consensws yn y Siambr, bod manteision economaidd, cymdeithasol, amgylcheddol a diwylliannol y mater hwn, yno i bawb eu gweld. Diolch.
English: The proposal is to agree amendment 1. Does any Member object? Amendment 1 is therefore agreed in accordance with Standing Order 12.36.
Welsh: Y cwestiwn yw a ddylid derbyn gwelliant 1. A oes unrhyw wrthwynebiad? Felly, derbynnir gwelliant 1 yn unol â Rheol Sefydlog 12.36.
English: That brings today's proceedings to a close.
Welsh: Daw hynny â'n trafodion i ben am y dydd.
English: And, so, we move on to the first item on our agenda this afternoon, namely questions to the Cabinet Secretary for Economy and Infrastructure, and I call on the first question - Janet Finch-Saunders.
Welsh: Ac, felly, symudwn ni ymlaen i'r eitem gyntaf ar ein hagenda ni y prynhawn yma, sef cwestiynau i Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet dros yr Economi a'r Seilwaith, ac rwy'n galw ar y cwestiwn cyntaf - Janet Finch-Saunders.
English: Yes. A north Wales tidal lagoon has the potential to create considerable jobs in north Wales. And we have consistently stated our commitment, in principle, to supporting the development of a sustainable tidal lagoon industry right across Wales.
Welsh: Gwnaf. Mae potensial gan forlyn llanw yng ngogledd Cymru i greu cryn dipyn o swyddi yng ngogledd Cymru. Ac rydym wedi datgan ein hymrwymiad cyson, mewn egwyddor, i gefnogi'r gwaith o ddatblygu diwydiant môr-lynnoedd llanw cynaliadwy ledled Cymru.
English: Thank you, Cabinet Secretary, and I'm sure you would agree with me in welcoming the Hendry review, and the positive support therein for tidal lagoon developments across Wales. For us in north Wales, such a project would provide essential flood protection, deliver significant employment and economic inward investment opportunity, and contribute towards helping Wales to become a world leader in renewable energy. A number of stakeholders have already pledged their support, and I'm glad that you pledge your support in principle. The Welsh Conservatives group pledge their support for tidal lagoon technology in Wales. But will you also back that up, please, with some commitment towards any funding that is needed to make that project a reality?
Welsh: Diolch i chi, Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet, ac rwy'n siŵr y buasech yn cytuno â mi y dylid croesawu adolygiad Hendry, a'r gefnogaeth gadarnhaol ynddo i ddatblygiadau môr-lynnoedd llanw ar draws Cymru. I ni yng ngogledd Cymru, buasai prosiect o'r fath yn darparu diogelwch hanfodol rhag llifogydd, yn darparu cyflogaeth sylweddol a chyfle ar gyfer mewnfuddsoddi economaidd, ac yn cyfrannu tuag at helpu Cymru i ddod yn arweinydd byd ym maes ynni adnewyddadwy. Mae nifer o randdeiliaid eisoes wedi addo eu cefnogaeth, ac rwy'n falch eich bod yn addo eich cefnogaeth mewn egwyddor. Mae grŵp y Ceidwadwyr Cymreig yn addo eu cefnogaeth i dechnoleg môr-lynnoedd llanw yng Nghymru. Ond a wnewch chi gefnogi hynny hefyd, os gwelwch yn dda, gydag ymrwymiad i ddarparu'r cyllid y bydd ei angen ar gyfer gwireddu'r prosiect?
