English: To start with, in terms of the extended producer responsibility report - and I agree with you that we're proud that we've led the way and we're able to innovate in Wales, and we do want to continue to do that. In terms of when the report is due, it is due this week. When that's out we'll be assessing this and developing recommendations, where appropriate. So, I do hope to be able to come back in the very near future with some dates on that. If I go straight to look at the deposit-return scheme, the question for Wales on how we work with what we currently have, you're absolutely right: how can we make it fit with how we work here in Wales? And it is something that we need to give careful consideration to, and I know this is something that you're very passionate about because of the agreement, and I'm sure once we have something from the study then we can hopefully meet and then take that further as to what the next steps are. But we definitely need to look at how it fits within what we do here. Also, I think, just linked to what you said about China - that we don't want to simply export our recyclable products elsewhere in the world - I think one of the best ways to do that is to look at how we do better recycling, but also look at making sure we have the infrastructure here in place to recycle and reuse those products in Wales. I've seen some innovative examples recently when plastics have been recycled to be used as part of tarmacking roads as well. So, there are lots of innovative ideas out there, and I think the key is to be open to that but, actually, at the same time, making sure that we turn, like you said, our aspirations into - . I was going to say into 'concrete action'; that's probably not the right phrase then. In terms of the funding for local authorities in terms of the way they recycle, I'm very familiar with the difference in practice in terms of Cardiff and my own council in Flintshire too, being in two places within the week. The Welsh Government, as you know, has a collections blueprint, which recommends things, but local authorities, as sovereign bodies, can make their own decisions, but, obviously, through our collections blueprint and the support we can give through the collaborative change programme, we hope we can support and work with councils to both improve their efficiency in terms of recycling and also in terms of, actually, invest-to-save with the councils as well. I think the other thing that links into is how we take forward further education on behavioural change campaigns, because we have seen, to get to the levels we have, a significant cultural shift in terms of attitudes to recycling and it just being an automatic thing that people do now, but I think there's still quite a level of confusion, and I could see that when I visited certain sites and you can see some of the things that people are putting in, even in separated recycling collections - so, the importance of further behavioural campaigns to talk about actually, at the moment, what plastics can be recycled, what can go in your recycling bags or bag, whatever the case may be. Finally, the plastics tax: I'm not surprised to learn that you're disappointed by the finance Secretary's decision and I recognise the considerable interest in and support for a tax. I saw it myself online and in correspondence as well, but I appreciate the complexity of developing an effective tax in this area. We have had constructive discussions with the UK Government at both ministerial and official level on the need to tackle the issue of disposals tax, including taxation, and it's on this basis - . We're clear that we have expertise to bring to the table on it, being at the forefront of leading on the waste agenda and have much to offer in terms of what we've done and our research capability. So, it's on that basis that the Cabinet Secretary for Finance and I have agreed that the UK and Welsh Governments should work together at this early stage and that we contribute to the analysis of findings following the call for evidence. My colleague the Cabinet Secretary for Finance has agreed to meet the Exchequer Secretary to the Treasury again to discuss progress and contribute our Welsh views on the development of policy options on possible ways forward to reflect the needs of Wales. But, as I said in the statement, we also continue to explore the options for a stand-alone disposable plastics tax for Wales as well.
Welsh: I ddechrau, o ran adroddiad cyfrifoldeb estynedig y cynhyrchydd - ac rwy'n cytuno â chi ein bod ni'n falch ein bod wedi arwain y ffordd a'n bod yn gallu arloesi yng Nghymru, ac rydym yn awyddus i barhau i wneud hynny. O ran pryd y mae'r adroddiad i fod ar gael, mae i fod i gyrraedd yr wythnos hon. Pan fydd hwnnw ar gael byddwn yn asesu hyn ac yn datblygu argymhellion, lle y bo'n briodol. Felly, gobeithiaf allu dod yn ôl yn y dyfodol agos iawn gyda rhai dyddiadau ynglŷn â hynny. Os af yn syth i edrych ar y cynllun dychwelyd blaendal, y cwestiwn i Gymru ynglŷn â sut yr ydym yn gweithio gyda'r hyn sydd gennym ar hyn o bryd, rydych yn llygad eich lle: sut allwn ni wneud iddo gyd-fynd â sut yr ydym yn gweithio yma yng Nghymru? Ac mae'n rhywbeth y mae angen inni roi ystyriaeth ofalus iddo, a gwn fod hyn yn rhywbeth yr ydych chi'n frwdfrydig iawn yn ei gylch oherwydd y cytundeb, ac rwy'n siŵr unwaith y bydd gennym rywbeth o'r astudiaeth yna gobeithio gallwn gwrdd ac wedyn mynd â hynny ymhellach ynglŷn â beth yw'r camau nesaf. Ond yn sicr mae angen inni edrych ar sut y mae'n cyd-fynd o fewn yr hyn a wnawn yma. Hefyd, credaf, yn gysylltiedig â'r hyn a ddywedasoch am Tsieina - nad ydym eisiau allforio ein cynhyrchion ailgylchadwy i fannau eraill yn y byd - credaf mai un o'r ffyrdd gorau o wneud hynny yw edrych ar sut yr ydym yn ailgylchu'n gwell, ond gan edrych hefyd ar sicrhau bod gennym y seilwaith yma i ailgylchu ac ailddefnyddio'r cynhyrchion hynny yng Nghymru. Rwyf wedi gweld rhai enghreifftiau arloesol diweddar pan mae plastigion wedi cael eu hailgylchu i'w defnyddio fel rhan o ffyrdd tarmac yn ogystal. Felly, mae yna lawer o syniadau arloesol, a chredaf mai'r allwedd yw bod yn agored i hynny ond, mewn gwirionedd, ar yr un pryd, gwneud yn siŵr ein bod yn troi, fel yr ydych wedi dweud, ein dyheadau - . Yr oeddwn yn mynd i ddweud 'yn weithredu concrid'; mae'n debyg nad dyna yw'r ymadrodd cywir felly. O ran y cyllid ar gyfer awdurdodau lleol o ran y ffyrdd y maent yn ailgylchu, rwy'n gyfarwydd iawn â'r gwahaniaeth mewn arfer o ran Caerdydd a fy nghyngor fy hun yn sir y Fflint hefyd, wedi bod mewn dau le o fewn yr wythnos. Mae gan Lywodraeth Cymru, fel y gwyddoch, lasbrint casgliadau, sy'n argymell pethau, ond gall awdurdodau lleol, fel cyrff sofran, wneud eu penderfyniadau eu hunain, ond, yn amlwg, drwy ein glasbrint casgliadau a'r cymorth y gallwn ei roi drwy'r rhaglen newid cydweithredol, gobeithio y gallwn ni gefnogi a gweithio gyda chynghorau i wella eu heffeithlonrwydd o ran ailgylchu a hefyd o ran, mewn gwirionedd, buddsoddi-i-arbed gyda'r cynghorau yn ogystal. Credaf mai'r peth arall sy'n gysylltiedig â hyn yw sut y gallwn ni ddatblygu addysg bellach ynglŷn ag ymgyrchoedd newid ymddygiad, oherwydd rydym wedi gweld, i gyrraedd y lefelau yr ydym wedi'u cyrraedd, newid diwylliannol sylweddol o ran agweddau i ailgylchu ac mae'n rhywbeth awtomatig y mae pobl yn ei wneud yn awr, ond credaf fod cryn lefel o ddryswch yn dal i fod, a gallwn weld hynny pan ymwelais â safleoedd penodol a gallwch weld rhai o'r pethau y mae pobl yn eu rhoi i mewn, hyd yn oed mewn casgliadau ailgylchu wedi'u gwahanu - felly, pwysigrwydd ymgyrchoedd ymddygiadol pellach i siarad am ba blastigion, ar hyn o bryd, y gellir eu hailgylchu, beth gaiff fynd yn eich bagiau neu fag ailgylchu, beth bynnag fydd yr achos. Yn olaf, y dreth blastigion: nid wyf yn synnu i glywed eich bod chi wedi'ch siomi gan benderfyniad yr Ysgrifennydd Cyllid ac rwy'n cydnabod y diddordeb sylweddol a'r gefnogaeth ar gyfer treth. Fe'i gwelais fy hun ar-lein ac mewn gohebiaeth yn ogystal, ond sylweddolaf gymhlethdod datblygu treth effeithiol yn y maes hwn. Rydym wedi cael trafodaethau adeiladol gyda Llywodraeth y DU ar lefel weinidogol a swyddogol ar yr angen i fynd i'r afael â mater treth ar waredu, gan gynnwys trethiant, ac ar y sail hon - . Rydym yn glir bod gennym arbenigedd y gallwn ei rannu, drwy fod ar flaen y gad mewn arwain ar yr agenda wastraff ac mae gennym lawer i'w gynnig o ran yr hyn yr ydym wedi'i wneud a'n gallu ymchwil. Felly, ar y sail honno mae Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet dros gyllid a minnau wedi cytuno y dylai Llywodraeth y DU a Llywodraeth Cymru weithio gyda'i gilydd ar y cam cynnar hwn a'n bod yn cyfrannu at y dadansoddiad o ganfyddiadau yn dilyn yr alwad am dystiolaeth. Mae fy nghyd-Aelod, Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet dros gyllid wedi cytuno i gyfarfod Ysgrifennydd y Trysorlys unwaith eto i drafod cynnydd ac i gyfrannu safbwyntiau Cymru ar ddatblygu dewisiadau polisi ar ffyrdd posibl ymlaen er mwyn adlewyrchu anghenion Cymru. Ond, fel y dywedais yn y datganiad, rydym hefyd yn parhau i ystyried posibiliadau ar gyfer y dreth blastig tafladwy annibynnol ar gyfer Cymru yn ogystal.
