English: Can I thank Dai Lloyd for his questions and his contribution? Given that this is an extensive report and many Members have not had an opportunity today to read it in full yet or to absorb the detail, I'd be more than happy to bring forward a debate in Government time to examine this report in more detail. Scrutiny of the report will also include further discussions with the national bodies and organisations to whom it is most applicable. I'll run through some of the general points and then the more specific points that the Member raised. In terms of wholesale challenges, the report does make recommendations for the Welsh Books Council to develop proposals to alleviate the current impact of wholesale book sales and also to accommodate future likely trends. I think this is absolutely essential if we are to maintain, particularly on high streets in rural areas, the presence of small independent bookshops. The panel recognised the great success story of 'papurau bro' and recommended that it should be retained as a Welsh Government responsibility, given the various examples that the Member has already outlined and the evidence that was provided by members of the public and stakeholders. It's quite clear that the current arrangements are fit for purpose and should not be changed. I do hope that all three organisations will be able to respond constructively to the report in the coming weeks. I am also hopeful, as I said to Suzy Davies, to meet with all three together, collectively, to discuss how we can take forward the recommendations. The steps that the report sets out are designed primarily to ensure three things. One is to foster excellence where it's already embedded. Secondly, to allow all of our supporting organisations to focus on what they do best. And then thirdly, to ensure that activities that are currently not being delivered to the best that we could expect are moved to the best place for them to be delivered effectively for publishers, for writers and for readers. There is detail about the challenges that the Member has asked about within the report. They are quite extensive, and along with the challenges that we currently face, there are clear recommendations on how they can be overcome. And, again, they're detailed in the report. I should also add that one recommendation that is made by the panel is to conduct a further review, in five years' time, and I think that would be valuable, given the fast-changing nature of the sector and the need to ensure that the sector itself receives appropriate support from Government, but also that writers, publishers and readers are receiving appropriate support from the national organisations. So, I'd be happy to say that in five years' time I think that it should be subject to a further review.
Welsh: Hoffwn ddiolch i Dai Lloyd am ei gwestiynau a'i gyfraniad. O ystyried bod hwn yn adroddiad helaeth ac nad yw nifer o'r Aelodau wedi cael cyfle heddiw i'w ddarllen yn llawn eto nac i amgyffred y manylion, byddwn i'n fwy na hapus i gyflwyno dadl yn amser y Llywodraeth i edrych ar yr adroddiad hwn yn fanylach. Bydd craffu ar yr adroddiad hefyd yn cynnwys rhagor o drafodaethau â'r cyrff a'r sefydliadau cenedlaethol y mae'n fwyaf perthnasol iddynt. Af i drwy rai o'r pwyntiau cyffredinol ac yna y pwyntiau mwy penodol y cododd yr Aelod. O ran heriau cyfanwerthu, mae'r adroddiad yn argymell bod Cyngor Llyfrau Cymru yn datblygu cynigion i liniaru effaith bresennol gweithgarwch cyfanwerthu o ran gwerthu llyfrau, yn ogystal â darparu ar gyfer tueddiadau tebygol yn y dyfodol. Rwy'n credu bod hyn yn gwbl hanfodol os ydym yn dymuno parhau i weld siopau llyfrau bach annibynnol, yn enwedig ar y stryd fawr mewn ardaloedd gwledig. Roedd y panel yn cydnabod llwyddiant mawr y papurau bro ac argymhellodd y dylent barhau yn gyfrifoldeb i Lywodraeth Cymru, o ystyried yr enghreifftiau amrywiol y mae'r Aelod eisoes wedi eu hamlinellu a'r dystiolaeth a ddarparwyd gan aelodau'r cyhoedd a rhanddeiliaid. Mae'n eithaf clir bod y trefniadau presennol yn addas at eu diben ac na ddylid eu newid. Rwy'n gobeithio y bydd y tri sefydliad yn gallu ymateb yn adeiladol i'r adroddiad yn ystod yr wythnosau nesaf. Rwyf hefyd yn gobeithio, fel y dywedais wrth Suzy Davies, cwrdd â'r tri gyda'i gilydd, ar y cyd, i drafod sut y gallwn ddatblygu'r argymhellion. Bwriad pennaf y camau a nodir yn yr adroddiad yw sicrhau tri pheth. Y cyntaf yw meithrin rhagoriaeth lle y mae wedi'i wreiddio eisoes. Yn ail, caniatáu i'n holl sefydliadau cefnogi ganolbwyntio ar yr hyn y maen nhw'n ei wneud orau. Ac yna yn drydydd, sicrhau bod y gweithgareddau nad ydyn nhw'n cael eu darparu hyd eithaf ein disgwyliadau ar hyn o bryd, yn cael eu symud i'r lle gorau er mwyn eu darparu'n effeithiol ar gyfer cyhoeddwyr, awduron a darllenwyr. Ceir manylion am yr heriau y mae'r Aelod wedi gofyn amdanyn nhw yn yr adroddiad. Maen nhw'n eithaf helaeth, ac ynghyd â'r heriau yr ydym yn eu hwynebu ar hyn o bryd, mae argymhellion clir ar sut y gellir eu goresgyn. Ac, unwaith eto, fe'u nodir yn yr adroddiad. Dylwn i ychwanegu hefyd mai un argymhelliad y mae'r panel yn ei wneud yw cynnal adolygiad arall, ymhen pum mlynedd, ac rwy'n credu y byddai hynny o fudd, o ystyried natur newidiol y sector a'r angen i sicrhau bod y sector ei hun yn cael cymorth priodol gan y Llywodraeth, ond bod awduron, cyhoeddwyr a darllenwyr hefyd yn derbyn cymorth priodol gan y sefydliadau cenedlaethol. Felly, byddwn i'n hapus i ddweud fy mod i'n credu y dylai fod yn destun adolygiad arall ymhen pum mlynedd.
