English: Siân Gwenllian makes a number of very valid points, as always. There is always more that we can do, and the statistics show very clearly, as she says, that more needs to be done. We certainly accept that there's a holistic set of circumstances that need to be done: we wish to address that all the way through. So, as Mark Isherwood pointed out, we have a number of groups of people that we need to address the needs of - older people in the community who lived through the decriminalisation process and who often have mental health and other associated traumas associated with all of that process, which many of us remember only too vividly. But we also have, at the other end of the spectrum, youngsters coming forward who we want to have the very best possible outcome all the way through our processes in our schools. And we are addressing those issues all the way through. So, as I said - I won't repeat myself - we're currently looking at the bullying policies in schools, specifically with a view to addressing potential incidents. The Cabinet Secretary for Education is going to be making an announcement next week about the sex and relationships education agenda, so I won't stray into her announcement, but, of course, that impacts on this agenda in a very major way, and that is very much about establishing our education system to be the best that it can be in that regard and to follow on from the Diamond review's four purposes, which are very much at the centre of part of this agenda as well. In terms of some of the very specific things you mentioned, I just said what we were doing on some of the trans healthcare issues, but there are some ongoing frustrations, I suppose. In July 2017, the UK Government announced proposals to streamline and de-medicalise the process for changing gender as part of the broad consultation on the legal system that underpins the Gender Recognition Act 2004. We expected that consultation last autumn. The latest communication between our officials and the Government Equalities Office suggests that they now hope that it will be before the summer recess this year. I'm sure Siân Gwenllian is aware that, currently, individuals need a diagnosis of gender dysphoria and have to provide evidence of transition for two years. We very much want to come away from that, but we're caught up in the consultation exercise. We want to remove the need for medical diagnosis of gender dysphoria before being able to apply for gender recognition and we want to streamline the entire process and propose a number of options for reducing the length and intrusiveness of the gender recognition system so that people can self-identify. Proposals for or a system of self-identification to change gender exist in quite a lot of other European countries: Portugal, Ireland, Malta, Belgium, Norway, Denmark to quote a few of them, and have been welcomed by trans communities, but it's led to a backlash in some cases, particularly, for example, in Ireland. The Irish Government is due to put a review of its complete system out, which we are hoping will be with us towards the end of the summer, the beginning of the autumn. So, we wish very much to learn from those experiences whilst developing our own system as well. So, there are a number of things we are doing. There are things we could do to accelerate that. We are having a cross-Government conversation about this, and I myself will be reporting back to the Senedd towards the end of the summer term on an equalities platform generally, which will set out some of the detail of moving that agenda forward in some of the specific areas that you mentioned.
Welsh: Mae Siân Gwenllian yn gwneud nifer o bwyntiau dilys iawn, fel bob amser. Mae bob amser fwy y gallwn ni ei wneud, ac mae'r ystadegau yn dangos yn glir iawn, fel y dywed, fod angen gwneud mwy. Rydym yn sicr yn derbyn y ceir cyfres gyfannol o amgylchiadau y mae angen eu gwneud: rydym yn dymuno ymdrin â hynny drwy bob cam o'r ffordd. Felly, fel y nododd Mark Isherwood, mae gennym ni nifer o grwpiau o bobl y mae angen inni fynd i'r afael â'u hanghenion - pobl hŷn yn y gymuned sydd wedi byw drwy'r broses ddad-droseddoli ac sydd yn aml â thrawma iechyd meddwl a thrawmâu eraill sy'n gysylltiedig â'r holl broses honno, y mae llawer ohonom yn ei chofio ddim ond yn rhy dda. Ond mae gennym hefyd, ar ben arall y sbectrwm, bobl ifanc yn dod ymlaen yr ydym yn awyddus iddyn nhw gael y canlyniad gorau posibl drwy ein prosesau yn ein hysgolion. Ac rydym ni'n mynd i'r afael â'r materion hynny drwy bob cam o'r ffordd. Felly, fel y dywedais - ni fyddaf yn ailadrodd fy hun - rydym ar hyn o bryd yn edrych ar y polisïau bwlio mewn ysgolion, yn benodol gyda golwg ar fynd i'r afael â digwyddiadau posibl. Bydd Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet dros Addysg yn gwneud cyhoeddiad yr wythnos nesaf am yr agenda addysg rhyw a pherthnasoedd, felly nid wyf am grwydro i'w chyhoeddiad, ond, wrth gwrs, mae hynny'n effeithio ar yr agenda hon yn fawr iawn, ac mae hynny'n ymwneud yn fawr â sefydlu ein system addysg i fod y gorau y gall fod yn hynny o beth ac i ddilyn ymlaen o bedwar diben adolygiad Diamond, sydd wrth wraidd rhan o'r agenda hon hefyd. O ran rhai o'r pethau penodol iawn a grybwyllwyd gennych, rwyf newydd ddweud beth yr ydym yn ei wneud ar rai o'r materion gofal iechyd trawsryweddol, ond ceir rhywfaint o rwystredigaeth barhaus, mae'n debyg. Ym mis Gorffennaf 2017, cyhoeddodd Llywodraeth y DU gynigion i symleiddio a pheidio â thrin y broses o newid rhywedd fel rhywbeth meddygol yn rhan o'r ymgynghoriad eang ar y system gyfreithiol sy'n ategu Deddf Cydnabod Rhywedd 2004. Roeddem yn disgwyl yr ymgynghoriad hwnnw yr hydref diwethaf. Mae'r cyfathrebu diweddaraf rhwng ein swyddogion ni a Swyddfa Gydraddoldeb y Llywodraeth yn awgrymu eu bod bellach yn gobeithio y bydd yn digwydd cyn toriad yr haf eleni. Rwy'n siŵr bod Siân Gwenllian yn ymwybodol bod unigolyn, ar hyn o bryd, angen diagnosis o ddysfforia rhywedd ac yn gorfod darparu tystiolaeth o drawsnewid am ddwy flynedd. Rydym yn awyddus iawn i symud oddi wrth hynny, ond rydym wedi'n dal yn yr ymarfer ymgynghori. Rydym eisiau cael gwared ar yr angen am ddiagnosis meddygol o ddysfforia rhywedd cyn gallu gwneud cais am gydnabyddiaeth rhywedd ac rydym eisiau symleiddio'r broses gyfan a chynnig nifer o ddewisiadau ar gyfer lleihau hyd a natur ymwthiol y system gydnabyddiaeth rhywedd fel bod pobl yn gallu hunan-nodi. Mae cynigion ar gyfer neu system o hunan-nodi ar gyfer newid rhywedd yn bodoli mewn llawer o wledydd Ewropeaidd eraill: Portiwgal, Iwerddon, Malta, Gwlad Belg, Norwy, Denmarc i nodi rhai ohonynt, ac maen nhw wedi eu croesawu gan gymunedau trawsryweddol, ond mae'n arwain at adlach mewn rhai achosion, yn enwedig, er enghraifft, yn Iwerddon. Mae Llywodraeth Iwerddon i gyhoeddi adolygiad o'i system gyflawn, yr ydym yn gobeithio y bydd gyda ni tuag at ddiwedd yr haf, neu ddechrau'r hydref. Felly, dymunwn yn fawr iawn ddysgu o'r profiadau hynny wrth ddatblygu ein system ein hunain hefyd. Felly, mae nifer o bethau yr ydym yn eu gwneud. Mae pethau y gallem eu gwneud i gyflymu hynny. Rydym yn cael sgwrs traws-Lywodraeth am hyn, a byddaf i fy hun yn adrodd yn ôl i'r Senedd tuag at ddiwedd tymor yr haf ar lwyfan cydraddoldebau yn gyffredinol, a fydd yn nodi rhai o fanylion symud yr agenda honno ymlaen yn rhai o'r meysydd penodol a grybwyllwyd gennych.
