English: Yes, and I recognise the point the Member makes. I remember as a backbencher raising issues about the construction workers' blacklist and the direct impact that had on the lives of workers in Wales and beyond. So, we are going to look to use the levers, both practical that we have and influential, to try to move employers in Wales to a position where they understand the view of the Welsh Government and what that means for their engagement with us. So, the economic contract, it's very clear about committing to fair work principles, and if people want continuing support, they're going to need to take account of that. And this goes back to the point about, even though we don't have the legislative powers, we have practical levers that should help to move us forward. And I do look forward to making progress on procurement and social partnership, because that will involve us taking forward the fair work agenda, and Members will have the opportunity to scrutinise the approach in legislation about those fair work principles and what it will mean. So, I look forward to Members getting involved and engaging in that to make sure we have the best piece of legislation that should then make a practical difference about how the Welsh Government engages in financial, loan support and practical support for companies and businesses, and I believe that will really improve the world of work here in Wales.
Welsh: Ie, ac rwy'n cydnabod y pwynt y mae'r Aelod yn ei wneud. Pan oeddwn ar y meinciau cefn, rwy'n cofio codi materion yn ymwneud â chosbrestr gweithwyr adeiladu a'r effaith uniongyrchol roedd hynny'n ei chael ar fywydau gweithwyr yng Nghymru a thu hwnt. Felly, byddwn yn ceisio defnyddio'r ysgogiadau ymarferol a dylanwadol sydd gennym i geisio sicrhau bod cyflogwyr yng Nghymru yn deall safbwynt Llywodraeth Cymru a beth y mae hynny'n ei olygu i'w hymgysylltiad â ni. Felly, y contract economaidd, mae'n glir iawn mewn perthynas ag ymrwymo i egwyddorion gwaith teg, ac os yw pobl yn dymuno cael cymorth parhaus, bydd angen iddynt gadw hynny mewn cof. Ac er nad oes gennym bwerau deddfwriaethol, mae hyn yn mynd yn ôl at y pwynt fod gennym ysgogiadau ymarferol a ddylai ein helpu i wneud cynnydd. Ac edrychaf ymlaen at wneud cynnydd ar gaffael a phartneriaeth gymdeithasol, gan y bydd hynny'n golygu ein bod yn bwrw ymlaen â'r agenda gwaith teg, a bydd yr Aelodau'n cael cyfle i graffu ar y dull o weithredu mewn deddfwriaeth ar yr egwyddorion gwaith teg hynny a'r hyn y bydd yn ei olygu. Felly, edrychaf ymlaen at weld yr Aelodau'n cymryd rhan ac yn ymgysylltu â hynny i sicrhau bod gennym y ddeddfwriaeth orau a ddylai wneud gwahaniaeth ymarferol o ran sut y mae Llywodraeth Cymru yn trefnu cymorth ariannol, cymorth benthyciad a chymorth ymarferol i gwmnïau a busnesau, a chredaf y bydd hynny'n gwella'r byd gwaith yma yng Nghymru yn fawr.
English: Let me first of all congratulate you, Minister, on your appointment. I don't think I've had an opportunity to do that yet, so congratulations to you. Of course, this item was raised yesterday in FMQs, and it is an important issue. We had some positive contributions from Mr Hedges and Mr Davies, my colleague here, and the First Minister obviously responded yesterday, but this was before further commitments and proposals made by UK Government in Parliament yesterday afternoon. And I'm sure you were encouraged to hear the UK Government's continued commitment to stamp out these unscrupulous practices. And, indeed, yesterday, the First Minister referred to the hope that the UK Government would take account of the Advisory, Conciliation and Arbitration Service's review and lead to legislative action, which the UK Government yesterday confirmed their commitment to the employment Bill, and also to the single enforcement body as well. I'm sure you'd welcome that action by the UK Government. So, in light of that, and in light of the statements yesterday by the UK Government, what further discussions will you be having with the UK Government to continue this good work in seeing this legislation over the line?
Welsh: Yn gyntaf oll, hoffwn eich llongyfarch ar eich penodiad, Weinidog. Ni chredaf fy mod wedi cael cyfle i wneud hynny eto, felly llongyfarchiadau i chi. Wrth gwrs, codwyd y mater hwn ddoe yn y cwestiynau i'r Prif Weinidog, ac mae'n fater pwysig. Cawsom gyfraniadau cadarnhaol gan Mr Hedges a Mr Davies, fy nghyd-Aelodau yma, ac yn amlwg, fe ymatebodd y Prif Weinidog ddoe, ond roedd hyn cyn i Lywodraeth y DU wneud ymrwymiadau a chynigion pellach yn y Senedd brynhawn ddoe. Ac rwy'n siŵr eich bod yn falch o glywed ymrwymiad parhaus Llywodraeth y DU i gael gwared ar yr arferion diegwyddor hyn. Ac yn wir, ddoe, cyfeiriodd Prif Weinidog Cymru at y gobaith y byddai Llywodraeth y DU yn ystyried adolygiad y Gwasanaeth Cynghori, Cymodi a Chyflafareddu gan arwain at gamau deddfwriaethol, a chadarnhaodd Llywodraeth y DU eu hymrwymiad i'r Bil cyflogaeth ddoe, ac i un corff gorfodi hefyd. Rwy'n siŵr y byddech yn croesawu'r camau hynny gan Lywodraeth y DU. Felly, yng ngoleuni hynny, ac yng ngoleuni'r datganiadau ddoe gan Lywodraeth y DU, pa drafodaethau pellach y byddwch yn eu cael gyda Llywodraeth y DU i barhau â'r gwaith da hwn er mwyn sicrhau y daw y ddeddfwriaeth hon i rym?
English: Minister, can I also congratulate you on your appointment? I look forward to working with you in both our new roles.
Welsh: Weinidog, a gaf innau hefyd eich llongyfarch ar eich penodiad? Edrychaf ymlaen at weithio gyda chi yn ein rolau newydd.
English: I welcome Peter Fox to his new role, and, again, I have seen him in his former role; now he is a bright young man here in the Senedd. Since April 2020, Monmouthshire businesses have received over £50 million in grant support, safeguarding over 1,300 jobs. This is in addition to the year-long non-domestic business rates holiday for retail, leisure and hospitality, and the Member will of course be aware that similar businesses in England will not enjoy the same relief over the same period of time.
Welsh: Rwy'n croesawu Peter Fox i'w rôl newydd, ac unwaith eto, rwyf wedi ei weld yn ei rôl flaenorol; bellach, mae'n ddyn ifanc disglair yma yn y Senedd. Ers mis Ebrill 2020, mae busnesau sir Fynwy wedi derbyn dros £50 miliwn mewn cymorth grant, gan ddiogelu dros 1,300 o swyddi. Mae hyn yn ychwanegol at y seibiant blwyddyn o hyd mewn ardrethi busnesau annomestig ar gyfer busnesau manwerthu, hamdden a lletygarwch, a bydd yr Aelod wrth gwrs yn ymwybodol na fydd busnesau cyffelyb yn Lloegr yn mwynhau'r un rhyddhad ardrethi dros yr un cyfnod o amser.
English: Thank you for the response, Minister. Minister, data shows that Wales's town centres have experienced the deepest decline in footfall out of the UK nations, and this is being felt in my constituency, as with many others represented here today. Short-term incentives need to be considered to help our struggling towns at a time when they most need it - things that could easily be delivered to support consumer spend and footfall. Simple but effective incentives such as Welsh Government-funded free parking in town centres, perhaps together with a street voucher scheme similar to that which is being operated in Northern Ireland, would be a really good start, and I believe the latter was something that featured in the Scottish Labour manifesto, so something that should be acceptable. These incentives would have a massively beneficial effect on our high streets and town centres at a time where they are in desperate need of our support. So, can I ask you, Minister, that you and the Government give these things some serious consideration? Thank you.
Welsh: Diolch am eich ymateb, Weinidog. Weinidog, mae'r data'n dangos mai canol trefi Cymru sydd wedi wynebu'r gostyngiad mwyaf o holl wledydd y DU yn nifer yr ymwelwyr, ac mae'r effaith hon i'w theimlo yn fy etholaeth, fel llawer o etholaethau eraill a gynrychiolir yma heddiw. Mae angen ystyried cymhellion tymor byr i helpu ein trefi sy'n ei chael hi'n anodd ar yr adeg pan fo fwyaf o angen cymorth arnynt - pethau y byddai'n hawdd eu cyflawni i gefnogi gwariant cwsmeriaid a nifer ymwelwyr. Byddai cymhellion syml ond effeithiol fel parcio am ddim a ariennir gan Lywodraeth Cymru yng nghanol trefi, gyda chynllun talebau stryd tebyg i'r un sydd ar waith yng Ngogledd Iwerddon o bosibl, yn ddechrau da iawn, a chredaf fod hynny'n rhywbeth a gafodd ei gynnwys ym maniffesto Plaid Lafur yr Alban, felly rhywbeth a ddylai fod yn dderbyniol. Byddai'r cymhellion hyn yn cael effaith hynod fuddiol ar y stryd fawr a chanol ein trefi ar adeg lle mae taer angen ein cymorth arnynt. Felly, Weinidog, a gaf fi ofyn i chi a'r Llywodraeth ystyried y pethau hyn o ddifrif? Diolch.
English: I'll be happy to consider all ideas, as well as the approach we're already taking. And the Member will know, from his time when he was still the leader of Monmouthshire, the over £0.5 million in Transforming Towns placemaking grant that's been made to Monmouthshire County Council for this year. So, there are practical steps that are being taken to help support businesses in the here and now, as well as, of course, the approach that we've indicated we're going to take in a town-centre-first approach, and the way we look at future developments and the choices that go across Government. So, in my former role, I was very keen to continue investing in community pharmacy for a variety of reasons, but I certainly had in mind that maintaining a community pharmacy on a high street is important from a footfall point of view for a range of other businesses too, and how we drive more - . So, to make them more accessible from a healthcare point of view also has an impact on the economic future for town centres as well. So, I look forward to working with him, and I'd be more than happy, if he wants to write to me with a range of initiatives we may be able to take, to openly engage with him, not just for Monmouthshire, but of course for every citizen across the country.
Welsh: Rwy'n fwy na pharod i ystyried pob syniad, yn ogystal â'r dull rydym eisoes yn ei weithredu. A bydd yr Aelod yn ymwybodol, o'i gyfnod pan oedd yn dal i fod yn arweinydd sir Fynwy, o'r mwy na £0.5 miliwn a roddwyd i Gyngor Sir Fynwy ar gyfer y flwyddyn hon ar ffurf grant creu lleoedd Trawsnewid Trefi. Felly, mae camau ymarferol yn cael eu cymryd i helpu i gefnogi busnesau ar hyn o bryd, yn ogystal, wrth gwrs, â'r dull rydym wedi nodi y byddwn yn ei ddilyn o roi canol y dref yn gyntaf, a'r ffordd rydym yn edrych ar ddatblygiadau yn y dyfodol a'r dewisiadau sy'n mynd ar draws y Llywodraeth. Felly, yn fy rôl flaenorol, roeddwn yn awyddus iawn i barhau i fuddsoddi mewn fferylliaeth gymunedol am amryw resymau, ond yn sicr, roeddwn yn ymwybodol fod cynnal fferyllfa gymunedol ar stryd fawr yn bwysig o safbwynt nifer yr ymwelwyr ar gyfer ystod o fusnesau eraill hefyd, a sut rydym yn sicrhau mwy o - . Felly, mae eu gwneud yn fwy hygyrch o safbwynt gofal iechyd hefyd yn effeithio ar ddyfodol economaidd canol trefi hefyd. Felly, edrychaf ymlaen at weithio gydag ef, ac rwy'n fwy na pharod, os yw eisiau ysgrifennu ataf gydag ystod o fentrau y gallem eu rhoi ar waith, i ymgysylltu'n agored ag ef, nid yn unig er lles sir Fynwy, ond wrth gwrs, er lles pob dinesydd ledled y wlad.
English: Can I welcome the Minister and the Deputy Minister to their new roles? I really look forward to working with them. I recently met up with constituents in Caswell Bay to view Surfs Up, a newly built changing places facility. Changing places are larger, accessible toilets with equipment such as hoists, curtains and adult-sized - [ Interruption.] Oh, I'm sorry I've done that. [ Laughter.] Sorry.
Welsh: A gaf fi groesawu'r Gweinidog a'r Dirprwy Weinidog i'w rolau newydd? Edrychaf ymlaen yn fawr at weithio gyda hwy. Yn ddiweddar, cyfarfûm ag etholwyr ym Mae Caswell i weld Surfs Up, cyfleuster lleoedd newid sydd newydd gael ei adeiladu. Mae'r lleoedd newid yn fwy, toiledau hygyrch gydag offer fel teclynnau codi, llenni a - [ Torri ar draws.] O, mae'n ddrwg gennyf am wneud hynny. [ Chwerthin.] Mae'n ddrwg gennyf.
English: I realised my mistake.
Welsh: Fe welais fy nghamgymeriad.
English: - you need to ask the question on the order paper. Don't worry, it wasn't just your mistake, I failed to notice it as well. [ Laughter. ]
Welsh: - mae angen ichi ofyn y cwestiwn ar y papur trefn. Peidiwch â phoeni, nid eich camgymeriad chi yn unig ydoedd, methais innau sylwi arno hefyd. [ Chwerthin.]
English: My mistake.
Welsh: Fy nghamgymeriad i.
English: We've all done it.
Welsh: Mae pob un ohonom wedi'i wneud.
English: Just go back to the question on the order paper.
Welsh: Ewch yn ôl at y cwestiwn ar y papur trefn.
English: Yes, I'd be very happy to do so - [ Laughter. ] - and welcome the Member to the Chamber. Our strategy, 'Welcome to Wales: Priorities for the Visitor Economy 2020-2025', published in January, emphasises accessibility and inclusivity in all our activities. We will continue to engage and work closely with Disability Wales to support the delivery of our work, and I look forward to the Member's supplementary. [ Laughter. ]
Welsh: Gwnaf, rwy'n fwy na pharod i wneud hynny - [ Chwerthin.] - a chroesawu'r Aelod i'r Siambr. Mae ein strategaeth, 'Croeso i Gymru: Blaenoriaethau i'r Economi Ymwelwyr 2020-2025', a gyhoeddwyd ym mis Ionawr, yn pwysleisio hygyrchedd a chynwysoldeb yn ein holl weithgareddau. Byddwn yn parhau i ymgysylltu'n agos ag Anabledd Cymru i gefnogi'r broses o gyflawni ein gwaith, ac edrychaf ymlaen at gwestiwn atodol yr Aelod. [ Chwerthin.]
English: I think he's got a small idea of what it might be. I recently met with constituents in Caswell Bay to view Surfs Up, a newly built changing places facility. Changing places are larger, accessible toilets with equipment such as hoists, curtains, adult-sized changing benches and space for carers. These help make tourism in Wales inclusive to everybody, as disabled toilets have proven to not be enough on their own. Whilst this has been a welcome change, I was shocked to find that this is one of the first places on Gower, a very popular tourism destination, to have such a facility. Now, the provision has been made compulsory in certain new buildings in England by the UK Government; therefore, what will the Welsh Government do to ensure that tourism is accessible to all?
Welsh: Credaf fod ganddo syniad bach o'r hyn y gallai fod. Yn ddiweddar, cyfarfûm ag etholwyr ym Mae Caswell i weld Surfs Up, cyfleuster lleoedd newid sydd newydd gael ei adeiladu. Mae'r lleoedd newid yn fwy, toiledau hygyrch gydag offer fel teclynnau codi, llenni a meinciau newid digon mawr i oedolion a lle i ofalwyr. Mae'r rhain yn helpu i wneud twristiaeth yng Nghymru yn gynhwysol i bawb, gan nad yw toiledau i'r anabl ar eu pennau eu hunain wedi bod yn ddigon. Er bod hwn wedi bod yn newid i'w groesawu, cefais syndod wrth ddarganfod mai hwn yw un o'r lleoedd cyntaf yn y Gŵyr, cyrchfan boblogaidd iawn i dwristiaid, i gael cyfleuster o'r fath. Nawr, mae Llywodraeth y DU wedi gwneud y ddarpariaeth honno'n orfodol mewn rhai adeiladau newydd yn Lloegr; beth, felly, fydd Llywodraeth Cymru yn ei wneud i sicrhau bod twristiaeth yn hygyrch i bawb?
English: Thank you for the question. I'm familiar with the Caswell Bay project that the Member references, because the Welsh Government provided £68,000 of the £85,000 project cost to enable the change he refers to. And there's more, of course, within Caswell Bay in particular, but we are looking at how we make it easier for people to understand how they can have genuinely accessible engagement in holidays, and the Visit Wales website allows visitors to filter for accommodation that has provision for disabled visitors and has a number of areas where you can look at accessibility. Again, I'm more than happy to look at how we may be able to consider how we actually provide not just duties, because, again, I know the Member, being still a current councillor, but in your former role and indeed the two previous council leaders who have spoken - there's a regular concern that if we impose duties without resources for them, then it creates an additional pressure that means the fulfilment of those is rather more difficult. So, I'm happy to consider duties, what that might mean, together with the Minister for Social Justice and to understand how we may then make a practical difference to make sure there are more accessible venues for families with a person who needs that access requirement to ensure that they enjoy holidays, as, indeed, the rest of us can do as well.
Welsh: Diolch am eich cwestiwn. Rwy'n gyfarwydd â'r prosiect y cyfeiria'r Aelod ato ym Mae Caswell, gan fod Llywodraeth Cymru wedi darparu £68,000 o gyfanswm cost y prosiect o £85,000 i alluogi'r newid y cyfeiria ato. Ac mae mwy, wrth gwrs, ym Mae Caswell yn benodol, ond rydym yn edrych ar sut rydym yn ei gwneud yn haws i bobl ddeall sut y gallant gael gwyliau gwirioneddol hygyrch, ac mae gwefan Croeso Cymru'n caniatáu i ymwelwyr hidlo am lety gyda darpariaeth ar gyfer ymwelwyr anabl, ac mae nifer o fannau lle gallwch edrych ar hygyrchedd. Unwaith eto, rwy'n fwy na pharod i edrych ar sut y gallwn ystyried sut rydym yn darparu nid yn unig dyletswyddau, oherwydd, unwaith eto, gwn fod yr Aelod, gan ei fod yn gynghorydd cyfredol o hyd, ond yn eich rôl flaenorol, ac yn wir, y ddau arweinydd cyngor blaenorol sydd wedi siarad - os ydym yn gosod dyletswyddau heb adnoddau ar eu cyfer, ceir pryder cyson fod hynny'n creu pwysau ychwanegol sy'n golygu ei bod yn anoddach cyflawni'r rheini. Felly, rwy'n fwy na pharod i ystyried dyletswyddau, yr hyn y gallai hynny ei olygu, gyda'r Gweinidog Cyfiawnder Cymdeithasol a deall sut y gallwn wneud gwahaniaeth ymarferol wedyn i sicrhau bod mwy o leoliadau hygyrch ar gael ar gyfer teuluoedd ag unigolyn sydd angen mynediad o'r fath i sicrhau eu bod yn mwynhau gwyliau, fel yn wir y gall y gweddill ohonom ei wneud.
English: Yes. Our economic resilience and reconstruction mission sets out our plan for the economy and will be vital to support individuals, businesses and communities to succeed, flourish and recover. We continue to support new and existing businesses in Pembrokeshire through Business Wales and our regional team. We have provided extensive support through the pandemic and the post-Brexit reality that I'm afraid has already seen an impact on Pembrokeshire businesses. We have, though, provided over £109 million in support through the economic resilience fund to Pembrokeshire businesses.
Welsh: Gwnaf. Mae ein cenhadaeth i gryfhau ac ailadeiladu'r economi yn nodi ein cynllun ar gyfer yr economi a bydd yn hanfodol er mwyn cynorthwyo unigolion, busnesau a chymunedau i lwyddo, ffynnu ac adfer. Rydym yn parhau i gefnogi busnesau newydd a busnesau sy'n bodoli eisoes yn sir Benfro drwy Busnes Cymru a'n tîm rhanbarthol. Rydym wedi darparu cymorth helaeth drwy gydol y pandemig a'r realiti ôl-Brexit sydd eisoes wedi effeithio ar fusnesau sir Benfro, mae arnaf ofn. Er hynny, rydym wedi darparu dros £109 miliwn mewn cymorth drwy'r gronfa cadernid economaidd i fusnesau sir Benfro.
English: Of course, the next 12 months are crucial in developing new business opportunities, and you have committed today to creating secure and lasting jobs across Wales, and creating the conditions for businesses to grow. Now, in my own constituency, it's great to see the port of Milford Haven move forward in its plans to strengthen its Milford waterfront proposition with construction beginning on the 100-bed Tŷ hotel, which will have a positive impact on the local community and provide local jobs. Minister, I hope you will join me in welcoming the progress made on the project, and could you tell us what the Welsh Government is doing to support and maximise the opportunities from developments like this in Pembrokeshire?
Welsh: Wrth gwrs, mae'r 12 mis nesaf yn allweddol i ddatblygu cyfleoedd busnes newydd, ac rydych wedi ymrwymo heddiw i greu swyddi diogel a pharhaol ledled Cymru, a chreu'r amodau i fusnesau dyfu. Nawr, yn fy etholaeth i, mae'n wych gweld porthladd Aberdaugleddau'n bwrw ymlaen gyda'i gynlluniau i gryfhau ei gynnig ar gyfer glannau Aberdaugleddau, gyda'r gwaith adeiladu'n dechrau ar westy 100 gwely Tŷ, a fydd yn effeithio'n gadarnhaol ar y gymuned leol ac yn darparu swyddi lleol. Weinidog, rwy'n gobeithio y gwnewch chi ymuno â mi i groesawu'r cynnydd a wnaed ar y prosiect, ac a allwch ddweud wrthym beth y mae Llywodraeth Cymru yn ei wneud i gefnogi a sicrhau cymaint â phosibl o gyfleoedd yn sgil datblygiadau fel hyn yn sir Benfro?
English: We have a constructive relationship with not just the council, but with a range of stakeholders in Pembrokeshire, and, in fact, the development you speak of is something I know that Joyce Watson the regional Member for Mid and West Wales has mentioned to me in the past as well. So, I'm very keen to look at what we can do to work alongside businesses in Pembrokeshire and beyond to see that there is a realistic and positive future, and I do come back to the point that our challenge in our trading relationship within the United Kingdom, but crucially with the island of Ireland, is a key factor in an area like Milford Haven and the progress that we want to see it make in the future. So, I'm happy to work constructively, as I said, on all sides to see that vision realised.
Welsh: Mae gennym berthynas adeiladol nid yn unig â'r cyngor, ond gydag ystod o randdeiliaid yn sir Benfro, ac mewn gwirionedd, mae'r datblygiad y soniwch amdano'n rhywbeth y gwn fod Joyce Watson, yr Aelod rhanbarthol dros Ganolbarth a Gorllewin Cymru, wedi sôn wrthyf amdano yn y gorffennol hefyd. Felly, rwy'n awyddus iawn i edrych ar yr hyn y gallwn ei wneud i weithio ochr yn ochr â busnesau yn sir Benfro a thu hwnt i sicrhau dyfodol realistig a chadarnhaol, a deuaf yn ôl at y pwynt fod yr her sy'n ei hwynebu yn ein perthynas fasnachu o fewn y Deyrnas Unedig, ond yn hollbwysig gydag ynys Iwerddon, yn ffactor allweddol mewn ardal fel Aberdaugleddau a'r cynnydd rydym am iddi ei wneud yn y dyfodol. Felly, rwy'n fwy na pharod i weithio'n adeiladol, fel y dywedais, ar bob ochr i sicrhau y caiff y weledigaeth honno ei gwireddu.
English: Thank you for the question. We have a comprehensive programme to support businesses through Brexit and COVID disruption. That includes technical advice, financial support and promotional work. This support and leadership will help to sustain the sector through challenging times to stay on the long-term path of success and growth that it has achieved in recent years.
Welsh: Diolch am eich cwestiwn. Mae gennym raglen gynhwysfawr i gefnogi busnesau drwy gydol y tarfu a achoswyd gan Brexit a COVID. Mae hynny'n cynnwys cyngor technegol, cymorth ariannol a gwaith hyrwyddo. Bydd y gefnogaeth a'r arweinyddiaeth hon yn helpu i gynnal y sector drwy gyfnod heriol i aros ar y llwybr hirdymor o lwyddiant a thwf y mae wedi'i gyflawni mewn blynyddoedd diweddar.
