English: Can I congratulate you, Minister - Cabinet Secretary, should I say - on your appointment, or reappointment, back to the Cabinet? Two statements, if I could, I seek off you - and I do declare an interest as a partner is a farming business. The first is, obviously, a statement on what the new Cabinet Secretary will be doing to seek to achieve a better working relationship with the farming unions in addressing the price pressures that are on the farm gate at the moment, and in particular the continuing pressure, as was raised by the Member for Mid and West Wales, in the dairy sector. There are huge pressures there, and I know we've had review and we've had analysis from previous Governments, but there is a competitive role that the Government could play here in working with the rural development plan, and the measures within the rural development plan, to assist some investment in processing capacity. I'd be most grateful if a detailed statement could come forward where a timeline can be identified in that statement as to the delivery of support to the dairy sector. And, secondly, supporting many agricultural businesses but also many small businesses that do look for microgeneration projects - the ability to get grid connection is a huge issue, and very often the simplest response from Western Power Distribution and the other distribution network operator in north Wales is just to say 'no', and all of a sudden an alternative stream of income that could be brought into a business, which would help that business through a difficult time or to continue to expand and create new jobs, is cut off before it even gets off the ground. I'd be most grateful if the Cabinet Secretary could bring forward a statement as to what discussions she and her officials will be having with the DNOs in Wales to see how they can bring forward a comprehensive plan to increase grid capacity, so that many microgeneration projects can have the ability to plug into the grid and seek that alternative revenue, which could make the difference between that business staying viable and that business closing down.
Welsh: A gaf fi eich llongyfarch, Weinidog - Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet, dylwn ddweud - ar eich penodiad, neu eich ailbenodiad i'r Cabinet? Hoffwn ddau ddatganiad gennych, os caf - ac rwy'n datgan buddiant fel partner mewn busnes ffermio. Y cyntaf, yn amlwg, yw datganiad ar yr hyn y bydd Ysgrifennydd newydd y Cabinet yn ei wneud i geisio sicrhau perthynas waith well gyda'r undebau ffermio i fynd i'r afael â'r pwysau ar y pris wrth gât y fferm ar hyn o bryd, ac yn arbennig y pwysau parhaus, fel y soniodd yr Aelod dros Ganolbarth a Gorllewin Cymru, yn y sector llaeth. Mae pwysau enfawr yno, ac rwy'n gwybod ein bod wedi cael adolygiad ac rydym wedi cael dadansoddiad gan Lywodraethau blaenorol, ond mae rôl gystadleuol y gallai'r Llywodraeth ei chwarae yma drwy weithio gyda'r cynllun datblygu gwledig, a'r mesurau o fewn y cynllun datblygu gwledig, i gynorthwyo rhywfaint o fuddsoddiad mewn capasiti prosesu. Byddwn yn ddiolchgar iawn pe bai modd cael datganiad manwl lle gellid nodi llinell amser yn y datganiad o ran darparu cymorth i'r sector llaeth. Ac yn ail, i gefnogi llawer o fusnesau amaethyddol a llawer o fusnesau bach hefyd sy'n edrych am brosiectau microgynhyrchu - mae'r gallu i gael cysylltiad â'r grid yn broblem enfawr, ac yn aml iawn, yr ymateb symlaf gan Western Power Distribution a'r gweithredwr rhwydwaith dosbarthu arall yng ngogledd Cymru yw dweud 'na', ac yn sydyn bydd ffrwd incwm amgen y gellid ei dwyn i mewn i fusnes, ac a fyddai'n helpu'r busnes hwnnw drwy gyfnod anodd neu i barhau i ehangu a chreu swyddi newydd, yn cael ei thorri cyn iddo gael ei draed oddi ar y ddaear. Byddwn yn ddiolchgar iawn pe gallai Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet gyflwyno datganiad ynglŷn â pha drafodaethau y mae hi a'i swyddogion yn eu cael gyda gweithredwyr rhwydwaith dosbarthu yng Nghymru i weld sut y gallant gyflwyno cynllun cynhwysfawr i gynyddu capasiti grid, fel bod llawer o brosiectau microgynhyrchu yn gallu cysylltu â'r grid a cheisio refeniw amgen o'r fath, rhywbeth a allai wneud y gwahaniaeth rhwng bod y busnes hwnnw'n parhau'n hyfyw a'i fod yn methu.
