English: I've long campaigned for the beautiful Cwmcarn forest drive to be restored for the people of Wales and the world to enjoy. It's a place where I had my only holidays as a small child and where my father has painted since he was a child. So, its revival also, though, is due to the hugely dedicated people of Islwyn, who have campaigned for its restoration over many years now. It's also because of the Labour-run Caerphilly County Borough Council working in partnership with the Welsh Labour Government that it has now been made into an integral part of the Valleys taskforce as a key gateway site in the Valleys regional park. I'm delighted that the Minister was able to announce that we now have a network of Valleys regional park guardians who are at work in each of the discovery sites that act as a gateway to our green spaces. Last December, Natural Resources Wales announced plans to redevelop eight recreational sites along the seven-mile forest drive in addition to the play areas that included wooden sculptures and sensory tunnels, as well as a number of all-ability trails and new picnic and seating areas. Deputy Llywydd, although the coronavirus pandemic has slowed this work down, it has not stopped it. Earlier this year, extensive work was carried out that included repairs to road services, landscaping, three new play areas, eight waterless toilets and an award-winning official camping site. So, this innovative project culmination will be a key moment for my constituency - a Valleys constituency - for our tourism and hospitality post COVID. And now, Minister, we need, I think, to -
Welsh: Rwyf wedi ymgyrchu ers tro byd dros adfer llwybr coedwig hardd Cwm-carn er mwyn i bobl Cymru a'r byd ei fwynhau. Mae'n fan lle cefais fy unig wyliau pan oeddwn yn blentyn bach a lle mae fy nhad wedi ei beintio ers iddo fod yn blentyn. Mae ei adfywiad hefyd, yn ganlyniad i bobl hynod ymroddedig Islwyn, sydd wedi ymgyrchu dros ei hadfer dros flynyddoedd lawer bellach. Hefyd oherwydd bod Cyngor Bwrdeistref Sirol Caerffili, sy'n cael ei redeg gan Lafur, yn gweithio mewn partneriaeth â Llywodraeth Lafur Cymru mae bellach wedi'i wneud yn rhan annatod o dasglu'r Cymoedd fel safle porth allweddol ym mharc rhanbarthol y Cymoedd. Rwy'n falch iawn bod y Gweinidog wedi gallu cyhoeddi bod gennym ni bellach rwydwaith o warcheidwaid parciau rhanbarthol y Cymoedd sydd ar waith ym mhob un o'r safleoedd darganfod sy'n gweithredu fel porth i'n mannau gwyrdd. Fis Rhagfyr diwethaf, cyhoeddodd Cyfoeth Naturiol Cymru gynlluniau i ailddatblygu wyth safle hamdden ar hyd y llwybr coedwig saith milltir yn ogystal â'r mannau chwarae a oedd yn cynnwys cerfluniau pren a thwneli synhwyraidd, yn ogystal â nifer o lwybrau pob gallu a mannau picnic a seddi newydd. Dirprwy Lywydd, er bod pandemig y coronafeirws wedi arafu'r gwaith hwn, nid yw wedi'i atal. Yn gynharach eleni, gwnaed gwaith helaeth a oedd yn cynnwys atgyweirio gwasanaethau ffyrdd, tirlunio, tair ardal chwarae newydd, wyth toiled di-ddŵr a safle gwersylla swyddogol arobryn. Felly, bydd penllanw'r prosiect arloesol hwn yn foment allweddol i'm hetholaeth i - etholaeth yn y Cymoedd - i'n twristiaeth a'n lletygarwch ar ôl COVID. A nawr, Gweinidog, mae angen inni, mi gredaf, -
