English: First of all, Llywydd, to assure the Member that individuals who have already received help will be able to retain the help that they have received; we're not looking to claw it back from them. We have changed the advice to local government about self-catering accommodation because of the representations we received from local authorities in Wales, including her own Conservative-led Conwy, that the system was not operating in the way that made sure that help went to the right people. So, all we are saying is that people who rely on the self-catering letting, where the income they get from that is clearly a significant part of their income, then if they can demonstrate that, local authorities can continue to provide help to them. But we were paying millions of pounds - this is what local authorities said to us - to people for whom self-catering income was a marginal addition to the income they already had; it was at the edge of their income, not central to it. We've responded to those representations. We have a set of rules in place that I think allow us to distinguish between people who were relying on this as their main income and their main business, and people for whom it was not that central to their incomes, and will allow us to use that money that otherwise would be going to people of marginal advantage for others who need it much more seriously. Local authorities have discretion, so if local authorities come across cases, then the Member will be able to talk to her local authority, and if they think it is right to exercise that discretion, they are able to do it under the rules we have devised with them.
Welsh: Yn gyntaf oll, Llywydd, i sicrhau'r Aelod y bydd unigolion sydd eisoes wedi cael cymorth yn gallu cadw'r cymorth y maen nhw wedi ei gael; nid ydym ni'n ceisio ei adfachu oddi wrthyn nhw. Rydym ni wedi newid y cyngor i lywodraeth leol ynghylch llety hunanarlwyo oherwydd y sylwadau a dderbyniwyd gennym ni gan awdurdodau lleol yng Nghymru, gan gynnwys ei hawdurdod hi ei hun yng Nghonwy dan arweiniad y Ceidwadwyr, nad oedd y system yn gweithredu yn y ffordd a oedd yn gwneud yn siŵr bod cymorth yn mynd i'r bobl iawn. Felly, y cwbl yr ydym ni'n ei ddweud yw bod pobl sy'n dibynnu ar osod llety hunanarlwyo, lle mae'r incwm y maen nhw'n ei gael o hynny yn amlwg yn rhan sylweddol o'u hincwm, yna os gallan nhw ddangos hynny, gall awdurdodau lleol barhau i roi cymorth iddyn nhw. Ond roeddem ni'n talu miliynau o bunnoedd - dyma a ddywedodd yr awdurdodau lleol wrthym ni - i bobl yr oedd eu hincwm hunanarlwyo yn ychwanegiad ymylol at yr incwm yr oedd ganddyn nhw eisoes; roedd ar ymyl eu hincwm, nid yn ganolog iddo. Rydym ni wedi ymateb i'r sylwadau hynny. Mae gennym ni gyfres o reolau ar waith yr wyf i'n credu sy'n caniatáu i ni wahaniaethu rhwng pobl a oedd yn dibynnu ar hyn fel eu prif incwm a'u prif fusnes, a phobl nad oedd hyn mor ganolog â hynny i'w hincwm, ac a fydd yn caniatáu i ni ddefnyddio'r arian hwnnw a fyddai fel arall yn mynd i bobl o fantais ymylol i eraill sydd ei angen yn llawer fwy taer. Mae gan awdurdodau lleol ddisgresiwn, felly os bydd awdurdodau lleol yn dod o hyd i achosion, yna bydd yr Aelod yn gallu siarad â'i hawdurdod lleol, ac os ydyn nhw o'r farn ei bod hi'n iawn i arfer y disgresiwn hwnnw, maen nhw'n gallu gwneud hynny o dan y rheolau yr ydym ni wedi eu llunio gyda nhw.
