English: Well, Llywydd, let the record show that, at 14:53 on 15 March 2022, Janet Finch-Saunders welcomed action by the Welsh Government and thanked us for what we're doing. It is a proud day that'll live in the record books for some time to come, and I appreciate that acknowledgement. Many of the questions she raised, I think, were answered by my statement, but I'd just like to address a couple of the others. The development of schemes is the responsibility of flood risk management authorities - it is their statutory function. The Welsh Government funds proposals based on expert analysis, and that is based on how it mitigates flood management, and I'm sure Janet Finch-Saunders, as somebody who is a landlord in Llandudno, has a keen interest in seeing sand there, but that is not a primary consideration when it comes to designing flood mitigation, and we rely not on political preferences, but on an expert assessment of what will reduce flood risk, and that's how schemes are judged. We want more authorities to put forward schemes that we can judge and then put in our pipeline and deliver. The point she made about section 19 investigations is something, as she'll know, that is captured by our partnership agreement with Plaid Cymru and that we are discussing with the designated Member and will make an announcement on when we have agreement on how to take that forward. But we are committed to doing that. I think the point to make on the broader comments is that we have a significant programme of work in this scheme to tackle the growing problem that we know climate change presents to us, and she mentions the scheme in her constituency, which is a vulnerable area on the coast, as is so much of Wales. And the need for us to join the dots here - . I'd say to Members on the Conservative benches, we're talking about dealing with the impact of climate change here, but we also have to deal with the causes of climate change. It's no good on the one hand coming to the Chamber with a list of the consequences of climate change without also being willing to stop making climate change worse, and I think they need to reflect on a bit of join-up in their policy thinking.
Welsh: Wel, Llywydd, dangosed y cofnod fod Janet Finch-Saunders, am 14:53 ar 15 Mawrth 2022, wedi croesawu camau gweithredu gan Lywodraeth Cymru a diolchodd i ni am yr hyn yr ydym ni'n ei wneud. Mae'n ddiwrnod pwysfawr a fydd yn nodedig yn llyfrau'r cofnodion am amser maith i ddod, ac rwy'n gwerthfawrogi'r gydnabyddiaeth honno. Fe gafodd llawer o'r cwestiynau a gododd hi eu hateb gan fy natganiad, rwy'n credu, ond fe hoffwn i ymdrin ag un neu ddau o'r gweddill. Yr awdurdodau rheoli perygl llifogydd sy'n gyfrifol am ddatblygu cynlluniau - eu swyddogaeth statudol nhw yw honno. Mae Llywodraeth Cymru yn ariannu cynigion ar sail y dadansoddiad arbenigol, ac mae hynny ar sail sut y maen nhw'n hwyluso rheoli llifogydd, ac rwy'n siŵr fod gan Janet Finch-Saunders, sy'n landlord yn Llandudno, ddiddordeb mawr mewn gweld tywod ar y traeth yn y fan honno, ond nid honno yw'r brif ystyriaeth o ran cynllunio ar gyfer lliniaru effeithiau llifogydd, ac nid ydym ni'n dibynnu ar ddewisiadau gwleidyddol, ond ar asesiad arbenigol o'r hyn a fydd yn lleihau'r perygl o lifogydd, a dyna sut y caiff cynlluniau eu barnu. Rydym ni'n awyddus i weld mwy o awdurdodau yn cyflwyno cynlluniau y gallwn ni farnu arnyn nhw a'u rhoi ar y gweill wedyn a'u cyflawni nhw. Mae'r pwynt a wnaeth hi ynglŷn ag ymchwiliadau adran 19 yn rhywbeth, fel mae hi'n gwybod, sy'n cael ei gynnwys yn ein cytundeb partneriaeth ni â Phlaid Cymru a'n bod ni'n trafod gyda'r Aelod dynodedig ac fe fyddwn ni'n gwneud cyhoeddiad ynghylch pryd y bydd cytundeb gennym ni ynglŷn â sut i fwrw ymlaen â hynny. Ond rydym ni wedi ymrwymo i wneud hynny. Rwy'n credu mai'r pwynt i'w wneud am y sylwadau ehangach yw bod gennym ni raglen waith sylweddol yn y cynllun hwn i fynd i'r afael â'r broblem gynyddol y gwyddom ni fod newid hinsawdd yn ei chyflwyno i ni, ac mae hi'n sôn am y cynllun yn ei hetholaeth hi, sy'n ardal dan fygythiad ar yr arfordir, fel cymaint o dirwedd Cymru. A'r angen i ni uno'r dotiau yma - . Fe ddywedaf i wrth Aelodau ar feinciau'r Ceidwadwyr, sôn yr ydym ni am ymdrin ag effaith newid hinsawdd yma, ond mae'n rhaid i ni ymdrin ag achosion newid hinsawdd hefyd. Ni ddaw unrhyw les o ddod i'r Siambr gyda rhestr o ganlyniadau newid hinsawdd heb fod yn fodlon, yn ogystal â hynny, i ewyllysio peidio â gwaethygu'r sefyllfa o ran newid hinsawdd, ac rwy'n credu bod angen iddyn nhw ystyried rhywfaint o gydgysylltu yn eu meddylfryd nhw o ran polisi.
