English: Thank you, Deputy Presiding Officer, and could I thank the Petitions Committee for bringing forward today's important report in front of us here today? And can I also put on record my admiration for the friends and family of Mark, who I know are in the public gallery here today, and applaud their efforts in ensuring that this issue is debated here today in the form of a report? As already stated by Members across the Chamber, it's extremely concerning that any young person loses their life to drowning in Wales. I understand that around 400 people across the UK actually lose their life through drowning, so it's clear that more needs to be done to see that continued action in preventing these deaths. I just want to speak, Deputy Presiding Officer, as the chairman of the Senedd's cross-party group on the outdoor activity sector, and, while there is a lot of good in this report, I've been made aware that perhaps there are some missed opportunities amongst the recommendations, and opportunities that the outdoor activity sector would want to have a comment on, especially with their great deal of experience and expertise in this area. And as we know, the report does highlight a number of the challenging issues when it comes to ensuring water spaces are safer places for those who visit and use them, as well as making suggestions to help mitigate some of these issues. But, in terms of the missed opportunity, I understand there hasn't been the consultation with the outdoor activity sector that perhaps could have taken place, and I know it's disappointing to the sector, as they, amongst many people, see water safety as such an important aspect of the work that they do. And they already do a huge amount of work in relation to water safety and campaigns, with things like AdventureSmart Wales, AdventureSmart UK, with their public awareness campaigns, and also their campaigns with around 100 other partners, on a collaborative effort to agree safety messages and share those messages as widely as possible. And a clear aspect of this debate and report so far is that a lot more work needs to be done in preventing these deaths, and, to achieve this aim, we all must make sure that we're working together, working across sector and across organisations, to ensure that this happens as best as possible. So, whilst I appreciate, Deputy Presiding Officer, that this process is coming to a conclusion in terms of this report, I understand the sector itself would still welcome further discussions in how they could further support the Petitions Committee and relevant bodies in relation to water safety and drowning prevention, and I hope that this offer can be taken up. But I certainly want to thank the committee for their report and the Chairman for presenting it here today. I look forward to further contributions. Diolch yn fawr iawn.
Welsh: Diolch, Ddirprwy Lywydd, ac a gaf fi ddiolch i'r Pwyllgor Deisebau am gyflwyno'r adroddiad pwysig hwn ger ein bron heddiw? Ac a gaf fi hefyd gofnodi fy edmygedd o ffrindiau a theulu Mark, y gwn eu bod yn yr oriel gyhoeddus yma heddiw, a chanmol eu hymdrechion i sicrhau bod y mater hwn yn cael ei drafod yma heddiw ar ffurf adroddiad? Fel y nodwyd eisoes gan Aelodau ar draws y Siambr, mae'n peri cryn bryder fod unrhyw unigolyn ifanc yn marw drwy foddi yng Nghymru. Deallaf fod oddeutu 400 o bobl ledled y DU yn marw drwy foddi, felly mae'n amlwg fod angen gwneud mwy i sicrhau gweithgaredd parhaus i atal y marwolaethau hyn. Hoffwn siarad, Ddirprwy Lywydd, fel cadeirydd grŵp trawsbleidiol y Senedd ar y sector gweithgareddau awyr agored, ac er bod llawer o bethau da yn yr adroddiad hwn, cefais wybod efallai fod yna rai cyfleoedd a gollwyd ymhlith yr argymhellion, a chyfleoedd y byddai'r sector gweithgareddau awyr agored am roi sylwadau arnynt, yn enwedig gyda'u profiad a'u harbenigedd helaeth yn y maes hwn. Ac fel y gwyddom, mae'r adroddiad yn amlygu nifer o'r materion heriol wrth sicrhau bod crynofeydd dŵr yn lleoedd mwy diogel i'r rheini sy'n ymweld â hwy ac yn eu defnyddio, yn ogystal â gwneud awgrymiadau i helpu i liniaru rhai o'r materion hyn. Ond o ran y cyfle a gollwyd, deallaf na chafwyd yr ymgynghori y gellid bod wedi'i gael o bosibl gyda'r sector gweithgareddau awyr agored, a gwn fod y sector yn siomedig oherwydd hynny, gan eu bod hwy, ymhlith llawer o bobl, o'r farn fod diogelwch dŵr yn agwedd mor bwysig ar y gwaith a wnânt. Ac maent eisoes yn gwneud llawer iawn o waith mewn perthynas â diogelwch dŵr ac ymgyrchoedd, gyda phethau fel AdventureSmart Cymru, AdventureSmart UK, gyda'u hymgyrchoedd codi ymwybyddiaeth, yn ogystal â'u hymgyrchoedd gydag oddeutu 100 o bartneriaid eraill, ar ymdrech gydweithredol i gytuno ar negeseuon diogelwch a rhannu'r negeseuon hynny mor eang â phosibl. Ac un agwedd glir ar y ddadl hon a'r adroddiad hyd yn hyn yw bod angen gwneud llawer mwy o waith i atal y marwolaethau hyn, ac er mwyn cyflawni'r nod hwn, mae'n rhaid i bob un ohonom sicrhau ein bod yn gweithio gyda'n gilydd, gan weithio ar draws y sector ac ar draws sefydliadau, i sicrhau bod hyn yn digwydd yn y ffordd orau bosibl. Felly, Ddirprwy Lywydd, er fy mod yn derbyn bod y broses hon yn dod i'w therfyn o ran yr adroddiad hwn, deallaf y byddai'r sector ei hun yn dal i groesawu trafodaethau pellach ynglŷn â sut y gallent gefnogi'r Pwyllgor Deisebau a chyrff perthnasol ymhellach mewn perthynas â diogelwch dŵr ac atal boddi, ac rwy'n gobeithio y gellir manteisio ar y cynnig hwn. Ond yn sicr, hoffwn ddiolch i'r pwyllgor am eu hadroddiad ac i'r Cadeirydd am ei gyflwyno yma heddiw. Edrychaf ymlaen at gyfraniadau pellach. Diolch yn fawr iawn.
