English: Thank you very much for that response, Minister. It's precisely what I would have expected you to say. One thing I am concerned about is the focus that we seem to have in Wales on protecting younger children going in and out of the school premises in terms of safer routes to school and the active travel routes that are being developed. I've seen significant investment in those in recent years in my own constituency, and they've been very successful, including here in the town of Abergele. However, there's not been the same sort of focus on safety around secondary schools, and I wonder to what extent the Minister has considered trying to bring forward schemes that promote safety in terms of particularly younger pupils getting in and out of secondary schools. So, for example, if I can refer to the situation in Abergele, there have been some significant improvements and investments in active travel routes and safer community routes to get children to and from three schools that share the same site. But just across the road, there's a secondary school that has lots of traffic going in and out around school drop-off and pick-up times, and there's not been any attention paid to improving that situation. Can you tell us what work you might be able to do with Cabinet colleagues to look at bringing forward schemes that address these concerns? Thank you.
Welsh: Diolch yn fawr am yr ymateb hwnnw, Weinidog. Dyma'n union y byddwn wedi disgwyl i chi ei ddweud. Un peth rwy'n pryderu amdano yw'r ffocws sydd gennym yng Nghymru ar ddiogelu plant iau sy'n mynd i mewn ac allan o safle'r ysgol yng nghyd-destun llwybrau mwy diogel i'r ysgol a'r llwybrau teithio llesol sy'n cael eu datblygu. Rwyf wedi gweld buddsoddiad sylweddol yn y rheini yn y blynyddoedd diwethaf yn fy etholaeth i, ac maent wedi bod yn llwyddiannus iawn, gan gynnwys yma yn nhref Abergele. Fodd bynnag, ni fu'r un math o ffocws ar ddiogelwch o amgylch ysgolion uwchradd, a tybed i ba raddau y mae'r Gweinidog wedi ystyried ceisio cyflwyno cynlluniau sy'n hyrwyddo diogelwch disgyblion iau yn enwedig wrth fynd i mewn ac allan o ysgolion uwchradd. Felly, er enghraifft, os caf gyfeirio at y sefyllfa yn Abergele, bu rhai gwelliannau a buddsoddiadau sylweddol mewn llwybrau teithio llesol a llwybrau cymunedol mwy diogel i gael plant yn ôl ac ymlaen o dair ysgol sy'n rhannu'r un safle. Ond ar draws y ffordd, mae yna ysgol uwchradd sydd â llawer o draffig yn mynd i mewn ac allan o gwmpas amseroedd gollwng a chasglu'r ysgol, ac ni roddwyd unrhyw sylw i wella'r sefyllfa honno. A allwch ddweud wrthym pa waith y gallech ei wneud gyda chyd-Weinidogion Cabinet i ystyried cyflwyno cynlluniau sy'n mynd i'r afael â'r pryderon hyn? Diolch.
English: Darren Millar makes a very important point about this, and it's a topic that I've discussed with the Deputy Minister for Climate Change in this context as well. It is absolutely essential that we make active travel to and from schools as convenient and as safe as possible for as many learners as possible, for reasons that I know he will share. The Active Travel (Wales) Act 2013 obviously provides for the underpinning requirements in relation to this, and the design guidance sets out standards that routes are expected to meet. Of course, as part of that, the availability of safe drop-off and pick-up points, for example, as well as other arrangements, are integral to that. But I will discuss further with the Deputy Minister what more perhaps we could do in this area. I'm happy to update the Member in due course.
Welsh: Mae Darren Millar yn gwneud pwynt pwysig iawn ynglŷn â hyn, ac mae'n bwnc a drafodais gyda'r Dirprwy Weinidog Newid Hinsawdd yn y cyd-destun hwn hefyd. Mae'n gwbl hanfodol ein bod yn gwneud teithio llesol i ac o ysgolion mor gyfleus ac mor ddiogel â phosibl i gynifer o ddysgwyr â phosibl, am resymau y gwn y bydd yn eu rhannu. Mae Deddf Teithio Llesol (Cymru) 2013 yn amlwg yn darparu ar gyfer y gofynion sylfaenol mewn perthynas â hyn, ac mae'r canllawiau cynllunio yn nodi safonau y disgwylir i lwybrau eu bodloni. Wrth gwrs, fel rhan o hynny, mae argaeledd mannau gollwng a chasglu diogel, er enghraifft, yn ogystal â threfniadau eraill, yn ganolog i hynny. Ond byddaf yn trafod ymhellach gyda'r Dirprwy Weinidog beth arall y gallem ei wneud yn y maes hwn. Rwy'n hapus i roi'r wybodaeth ddiweddaraf i'r Aelod maes o law.
English: Minister, last week, my team arranged a very interesting meeting between the residents of Gwaelod-y-garth in north-west Cardiff and Rod King - I'm sure you're familiar with him - an expert on road safety and the founder of 20's Plenty for Us. Now, Mr King was full of praise for the road-safety policies of the Welsh Government, but one point he made was that drivers needed to be more aware of when they are driving into a community that they see an area as a community with people not just homes and buildings. Now, outside the school in Gwaelod-y-Garth, there is a 20 mph zone. Now, the major concern of residents of Gwaelod-y-Garth is that the rest of the village is not a 20 mph zone and that vehicles tend to speed up in those areas. So, what discussions are you having with your colleagues, and, perhaps, the Deputy Minister, who is still on our screens, and Cardiff Council, in order to ensure that a 20 mph zone is introduced for the whole of the village, so that children walking and cycling back and forth to school can do so safely? Thank you.
Welsh: Weinidog, yr wythnos ddiwethaf, trefnodd fy nhîm i gyfarfod diddorol iawn rhwng trigolion Gwaelod-y-garth yng ngogledd-orllewin Caerdydd â Rod King - rŷch chi'n siŵr yn gyfarwydd â'r arbenigwr diogelwch ar y ffyrdd a sylfaenydd y mudiad llwyddiannus iawn 20's Plenty for Us. Er tegwch, roedd Mr King yn llawn canmoliaeth i bolisïau diogelwch ffyrdd Llywodraeth Cymru, ond un pwynt roedd e'n ei wneud oedd angen i yrwyr fod yn fwy ymwybodol pryd maen nhw'n gyrru mewn i gymuned, eu bod nhw'n gweld ardal fel cymuned gyda phobl yn hytrach na jest tai yn unig. Yn union tu fas i'r ysgol yng Ngwaelod-y-Garth, mae yno barth 20 milltir yr awr. Consérn mawr trigolion Gwaelod-y-Garth yw bod gweddill y pentref ddim yn y parth 20 mya a bod cerbydau'n tueddu i gyflymu yn y parthau hynny. Pa drafodaethau ŷch chi'n eu cael gyda'ch cydweithwyr, ac efallai y Dirprwy Weinidog sy'n dal ar y sgrin, a Chyngor Caerdydd, i sicrhau bod parth 20 mya yn cael ei gyflwyno yn y pentref cyfan, fel y gall y plant sy'n cerdded ac yn seiclo nôl ac ymlaen o'r ysgol wneud hynny yn ddiogel? Diolch yn fawr.
English: I thank Rhys ab Owen for that. I myself haven't had any discussions on the specific circumstances he described. As he said, the Deputy Minister for Climate Change is listening to this discussion, and I can have further discussions with him on this. But this is exactly why the plans that the Welsh Government has to provide speed restrictions is so very important, so that we do safeguard as many of our communities as possible, where the schools are protected. But as he said, that needs to be done more broadly too.
Welsh: Diolch i Rhys ab Owen am hynny. Dwi ddim fy hunan wedi cael trafodaethau ynglŷn â'r sefyllfa benodol honno mae e'n ei disgrifio. Fel rŷch chi'n dweud, mae'r Dirprwy Weinidog Newid Hinsawdd yn gwrando ar y drafodaeth yn astud, rwy'n sicr, a gallaf i gael trafodaethau pellach gyda fe ynglŷn â hyn. Ond dyma yn union pam bod y cynlluniau sydd gan Lywodraeth Cymru i ddarparu cyfyngiadau o ran cyflymder mor bwysig, fel ein bod ni'n diogelu cymaint â phosib o'r cymunedau sydd gyda ni, lle mae'r ysgolion, wrth gwrs, yn cael eu gwarchod. Ond fel mae e'n dweud, mae angen gwneud hynny'n ehangach hefyd.
English: Questions now from the party spokespeople. Conservative spokesperson this week, Samuel Kurtz.
Welsh: Cwestiynau nawr gan lefarwyr y pleidiau. Llefarydd y Ceidwadwyr yr wythnos yma, Samuel Kurtz.
English: Thank you, Llywydd. Minister, I'd like to start by welcoming the news that the Welsh Government is to fund new research into the resilience of NHS Wales's cognitive tests, particularly in terms of dementia care and the use of the Welsh language. Now, I'm sure that the Minister will be aware that first-language Welsh speakers with dementia often forget that they're able to communicate in English, whilst retaining their mother tongue. This allows for a clear line of communication to remain open whilst eliminating the risk of isolating individuals by not providing services in their language of choice. Given this, I was disappointed to hear that the Welsh Government doesn't have any official data on the percentage of its social care workforce who are Welsh speakers. So, could I ask the Minister to work with the Deputy Minister for Social Services in order to carry out a Welsh language audit of the social care sector here in Wales, and note what plans the Government has to improve social care for first-language Welsh speakers?
Welsh: Diolch, Llywydd. Weinidog, hoffwn ddechrau drwy groesawu'r newyddion bod Llywodraeth Cymru yn ariannu ymchwil newydd i gadernid profion gwybyddol GIG Cymru, yn enwedig o ran gofal dementia a'r defnydd o'r Gymraeg. Rwy'n siŵr bod y Gweinidog yn ymwybodol bod siaradwyr Cymraeg iaith gyntaf â dementia yn aml yn anghofio eu bod yn gallu siarad Saesneg er yn cadw eu gwybodaeth o'u hiaith frodorol. Mae hyn yn caniatáu i linell gyfathrebu bwysig aros tra hefyd yn cael gwared ar y risg o ynysu unigolion trwy fethu â darparu gwasanaethau yn eu dewis iaith. O ystyried hyn, cefais fy siomi o glywed nad oes gan Lywodraeth Cymru unrhyw ddata swyddogol ar ganran eu gweithlu gofal cymdeithasol sy'n siarad Cymraeg. Felly, a gaf i ofyn i'r Gweinidog weithio gyda'r Dirprwy Weinidog dros Wasanaethau Cymdeithasol i gynnal archwiliad iaith Gymraeg llawn o'r sector gofal cymdeithasol yng Nghymru a nodi pa gynlluniau sydd gan y Llywodraeth i wella gofal cymdeithasol ar gyfer siaradwyr Cymraeg iaith gyntaf?
English: I thank the Member for this important question. He may know that the Minister for health has already commissioned work in order to evaluate the policies that we have in terms of the Welsh language in education and social care. The point that he makes is important in terms of dementia and in broader contexts too. What's truly important is that we ensure that we're able to provide a Welsh language service for those when the language is most important to them. So, the challenges set by the Member are very worthy indeed, but there is work in train already by the health Minister to evaluate policies on the ground at the moment.
Welsh: Diolch i'r Aelod am y cwestiwn pwysig hwnnw. Efallai ei fod yn gwybod bod y Gweinidog iechyd eisoes wedi comisiynu gwaith er mwyn cloriannu'r polisïau sydd gyda ni ym maes y Gymraeg o fewn y system addysg a gofal cymdeithasol yn barod. Mae'r pwynt mae e'n ei wneud yn bwysig iawn yng nghyd-destun dementia ac mewn cyd-destun ehangach na hynny hefyd. Beth sy'n wir yn bwysig yw ein bod ni'n sicrhau ein bod ni'n gallu darparu gwasanaeth Cymraeg i'r rheini efallai pan fo'r iaith ar ei phwysicaf iddyn nhw. Felly, mae'r sialens mae'r Aelod yn ei ddatgan yn un teilwng iawn ond mae gwaith eisoes ar waith gan y Gweinidog iechyd i gloriannu'r polisïau sydd yn digwydd ar lawr gwlad ar hyn o bryd.
English: Thank you, Minister. In his annual report, the Welsh Language Commissioner has identified a great frustration with the increase in rules around Welsh language standards and the sluggish change in Welsh-medium education. Indeed, the Labour Member for Blaenau Gwent in the committee said:
Welsh: Diolch, Weinidog. Yn ei adroddiad blynyddol, mae Comisiynydd y Gymraeg wedi dangos llawer iawn o rwystredigaeth gyda'r cynnydd ar reolau safonau'r Gymraeg ac arafwch yn y newid mewn addysg cyfrwng Cymraeg. Yn wir, dywedodd yr Aelod Llafur dros Flaenau Gwent yn y pwyllgor:
English: 'One of the disappointments in the Welsh Government's language policies over the past few years is the deficiencies in terms of promoting the Welsh language.'
Welsh: 'Un o'r siomau ym mholisi iaith Llywodraeth Cymru yn ystod y rhai blynyddoedd diwethaf yw y diffygion o ran hyrwyddo'r Gymraeg.'
English: The Member went on to mention the Government's commitment to the Welsh language through 'Cymraeg 2050' by echoing the concerns of the former First Minister, Carwyn Jones. The comments made by Alun Davies are a cause for concern, particularly when linked to the commissioner's call for substantial intervention and a change of mindset in warning that the 'Cymraeg 2050' strategy will not be delivered. If a Labour MS, a former First Minister and the Welsh Language Commissioner can see the problems with 'Cymraeg 2050', would you agree with them?
Welsh: Aeth yr Aelod ymlaen wedyn i gwestiynu ymrwymiad y Llywodraeth i 'Cymraeg 2050' drwy adleisio pryderon y cyn-Brif Weinidog, Carwyn Jones. Mae sylwadau Alun Davies yn peri cryn bryder yn enwedig o'u cyplysu â galwad y comisiynydd am ymyrraeth sylweddol a newid meddylfryd llwyr wrth rybuddio na fydd strategaeth Cymraeg 2050 yn cael ei chyflawni. Os gall Aelod Seneddol Llafur, cyn-Brif Weinidog a Chomisiynydd y Gymraeg weld problem trywydd presennol 'Cymraeg 2050', ydych chi'n cytuno gyda nhw?
English: Ahead of my final question, I'd just like to declare an interest as a member of Pembrokeshire County Council, and it's an issue that I've raised before within the Chamber. It's regarding Cosheston VC School in my own constituency of Carmarthen West and South Pembrokeshire, which has faced ongoing difficulties relating to lack of space, which have worsened due to COVID-19. Following an issue I raised in this Chamber, Pembrokeshire County Council have provided additional portakabin toilets for the pupils, and a portakabin office for the headteacher. Discussions continue between the school and the council as to a more permanent improvement for the school, the teachers, and, most importantly, the pupils. However, the headteacher has expressed her frustration over the lack of clarity about what funding is available to either her school directly or to the local authority, to pay for the work that is desperately needed. Therefore, Minister, can you confirm whether your £100 million funding announcement from earlier this year will be open to schools like Cosheston VC School, who, due to COVID, require additional space, in either a new build or portakabin classrooms, and can you please confirm how schools can go about expressing their interest and applying for this funding? Diolch.
Welsh: Cyn fy nghwestiwn olaf, hoffwn ddatgan buddiant fel aelod o Gyngor Sir Penfro, ac mae'n fater rwyf wedi'i godi o'r blaen yn y Siambr. Mae'n ymwneud ag Ysgol Cosheston, sy'n ysgol wirfoddol a reolir, yn fy etholaeth i, sef Gorllewin Caerfyrddin a De Sir Benfro, sydd wedi wynebu anawsterau parhaus yn ymwneud â diffyg lle, anawsterau sydd wedi gwaethygu oherwydd COVID-19. Yn dilyn mater a godais yn y Siambr hon, mae Cyngor Sir Penfro wedi darparu toiledau caban symudol ychwanegol i'r disgyblion, a swyddfa caban symudol i'r pennaeth. Mae trafodaethau'n parhau rhwng yr ysgol a'r cyngor ynglŷn â gwelliant mwy parhaol ar gyfer yr ysgol, yr athrawon, ac yn bwysicaf oll, y disgyblion. Fodd bynnag, mae'r pennaeth wedi mynegi ei rhwystredigaeth ynghylch y diffyg eglurder ynglŷn â pha gyllid sydd ar gael i'w hysgol naill ai'n uniongyrchol neu drwy'r awdurdod lleol, i dalu am y gwaith sydd ei angen yn ddybryd. Felly, Weinidog, a allwch roi gwybod inni a fydd eich cyhoeddiad ynghylch £100 miliwn o gyllid yn gynharach eleni yn agored i ysgolion fel Ysgol Cosheston, sydd, oherwydd COVID, angen lle ychwanegol, naill ai mewn ystafelloedd dosbarth newydd neu ystafelloedd dosbarth mewn cabanau symudol, ac a allwch chi gadarnhau sut y gall ysgolion fynd ati i fynegi eu diddordeb a gwneud cais am y cyllid hwn? Diolch.
English: Yes, certainly. I don't know the particular circumstances of Cosheston school, so I won't be able to comment particularly on that, although, if the Member writes to me, I will be able to respond specifically in relation to that. There are a number of ways in which schools can have access to capital funding to make adaptations - local authority budgets are one of them, but also the funding that, from time to time, the Welsh Government declares, including that which was most recently declared by me. So, if the Member cares to write to me about certain schools in particular, I'll be able to give him some specific advice.
Welsh: Yn sicr. Nid wyf yn gwybod am amgylchiadau penodol Ysgol Cosheston, felly ni fyddaf yn gallu gwneud sylw ar honno yn benodol, ond os gwnaiff yr Aelod ysgrifennu ataf, gallaf ymateb yn benodol mewn perthynas â hynny. Mae yna nifer o ffyrdd y gall ysgolion gael mynediad at gyllid cyfalaf i wneud addasiadau - mae cyllidebau awdurdodau lleol yn un ohonynt, ond hefyd y cyllid y mae Llywodraeth Cymru, o bryd i'w gilydd, yn ei ddatgan, gan gynnwys y cyllid rwyf newydd ei ddatgan yn ddiweddar. Felly, os yw'r Aelod yn penderfynu ysgrifennu ataf am rai ysgolion yn benodol, gallaf roi cyngor penodol iddo.
English: Thank you, Llywydd. Minister, yesterday you made it clear that the intention is that examinations should proceed this year, and I was pleased to see you recognising the disquiet of learners and staff, and the problems that they've faced in our schools and colleges over the past two years. You encouraged all students in exam years to speak to their schools and colleges about what additional support and flexibility could be available this year. But this is still very ambiguous, and places the burden back on the learners to try and seek support, rather than that support being offered to them. Clearly, we don't know what will happen in terms of coronavirus, although the signs so far are encouraging. If there was further interference with education, including high absence levels in terms of staff and learners, what contingency plans are in place in case examinations cannot take place?
Welsh: Diolch, Llywydd. Weinidog, ddoe fe wnaethoch yn glir mai'r bwriad yw i arholiadau fynd rhagddynt eleni, ac roeddwn yn falch o'ch gweld yn cydnabod yr aflonyddwch y mae dysgwyr a staff wedi ei wynebu dros y ddwy flynedd ddiwethaf yn ein hysgolion a'n colegau. Fe wnaethoch annog pob dysgwr ym mlynyddoedd arholiadau i siarad â'u hysgolion a'u colegau am ba gymorth a hyblygrwydd ychwanegol a allai fod ar gael eleni. Ond mae hyn dal yn amwys iawn, ac yn rhoi'r baich yn ôl ar y dysgwyr i geisio cael cefnogaeth, yn hytrach na bod y cymorth yn cael ei gynnig iddynt. Yn amlwg, dydyn ni ddim yn gwybod beth sydd am ddigwydd o ran coronafeirws, er bod yr arwyddion yn galonogol. Os bydd amharu pellach ar addysg, gan gynnwys absenoldebau uchel o ran staff a dysgwyr, pa gynlluniau wrth gefn sydd ar waith rhag ofn na ellir bwrw ymlaen â'r arholiadau?
English: Thank you, Minister. I would like to declare, before asking the next question, that I am a Rhondda Cynon Taf councillor. I'd like to turn now to the issue of additional learning needs, and Welsh-medium provision particularly. I warmly welcome the £18 million in addition that you announced earlier this month for providing further support for children and young people with additional learning needs who have been affected by the pandemic, and to help educational settings as learners start to the move to the new additional learning needs system. However, although funding is available, and local authorities do have to provide support in the language of choice in the Act, there is a severe shortage of qualified Welsh-medium teachers to meet the need. In the region I represent, for example, I was recently told that there isn't a single specialist additional learning needs class in Rhondda Cynon Taf through the medium of Welsh, while there are more than 40 in English. Even in the current consultation, there is only one secondary class that the council intends to establish for the whole county. So, I would like to ask what the Welsh Government is doing on a practical level to ensure that the additional learning needs necessary through the medium of Welsh is guaranteed for those who require it, wherever they live in Wales?
Welsh: Diolch, Weinidog. Hoffwn ddatgan, cyn y cwestiwn nesaf, fy mod i'n gynghorydd ar gyngor Rhondda Cynon Taf. Hoffwn droi rŵan at fater anghenion dysgu ychwanegol, a darpariaeth cyfrwng Cymraeg yn benodol. Rwyf yn croesawu'n fawr y £18 miliwn ychwanegol y gwnaethoch gyhoeddi yn gynharach y mis hwn ar gyfer rhoi rhagor o gymorth i blant a phobl ifanc y mae'r pandemig wedi effeithio arnynt, ac i helpu lleoliadau addysgol wrth i ddysgwyr ddechrau symud i'r system ADY newydd. Fodd bynnag, er bod arian ar gael, a bod angen i'r awdurdodau ddarparu cymorth yn yr iaith y gofynnir amdani yn y Ddeddf, mae yna brinder dirfawr o athrawon arbenigol sy'n siarad Cymraeg i ddiwallu'r anghenion. Yn y rhanbarth rwyf yn ei gynrychioli, er enghraifft, tynnwyd fy sylw i'n ddiweddar at y ffaith nad oes un dosbarth ADY arbenigol yn Rhondda Cynon Taf drwy gyfrwng y Gymraeg ar y funud, tra bod mwy na 40 yn y Saesneg. Hyd yn oed yn yr ymgynghoriad presennol, dim ond un dosbarth uwchradd mae'r cyngor yn bwriadu ei sefydlu ar gyfer yr holl sir. Felly, hoffwn ofyn beth mae Llywodraeth Cymru yn ei wneud yn ymarferol i sicrhau bod y ddarpariaeth ADY angenrheidiol drwy gyfrwng y Gymraeg yn cael ei gwarantu i'r rhai sy'n gofyn amdani lle bynnag y byddant yn byw yng Nghymru?
English: Well, the Member raises a very important point. As well as providing a legal basis for these reforms, we need to ensure that the resources are available on the ground in order to meet the demand and to prepare and provide the services required, and that that is an element that will require training for our teachers in providing those services. We're in a process at the moment of enhancing the resources available to teachers for personal training, and also to meet the requirements of the legislation more broadly. There's been a great deal of work happening in terms of professional training in this area for teachers who can teach through the medium of Welsh and provide broader services through the medium of Welsh. And I would want to ensure that those resources are all available, as they are in English, in Welsh too. But, certainly, this is an area that's very important to us, and I will ensure that we do everything we can to meet the need, not only in English but also in Welsh.
Welsh: Wel, mae'r Aelod yn codi pwynt pwysig iawn, hynny yw, ynghyd â darparu sail gyfreithiol newydd ar gyfer y diwygiadau, mae angen sicrhau bod yr adnoddau ar gael ar lawr gwlad i allu diwallu'r angen ac i baratoi ac i ddarparu'r gwasanaethau sydd eu hangen, a bod hynny hefyd yn elfen sydd yn golygu hyfforddiant ar gyfer athrawon i ddarparu'r gwasanaethau hynny. Rŷn ni mewn proses ar hyn o bryd o ehangu ar yr adnoddau sydd ar gael i athrawon er mwyn hyfforddiant personol, ac er mwyn diwallu gofynion y ddeddfwriaeth yn ehangach. Mae llawer o waith wedi bod yn digwydd eisoes o ran hyfforddiant proffesiynol yn y maes hwnnw ar gyfer athrawon sydd yn gallu dysgu trwy gyfrwng y Gymraeg a darparu gwasanaethau ehangach yn y Gymraeg. A byddwn i eisiau sicrhau bod yr adnoddau hynny i gyd ar gael, fel maen nhw eisoes yn Saesneg, ac yn y Gymraeg, ond, yn sicr, mae hwn yn faes sydd yn bwysig iawn i ni, a byddaf yn edrych i weld ein bod ni'n gwneud popeth y gallwn ni i ddiwallu'r angen, nid yn unig yn y Saesneg ond yn Gymraeg hefyd.
English: Yes, I issued a written statement on 17 December, outlining the activities and priorities associated with the roll-out of free schools meals to primary school pupils, reflecting the agreement reached with Plaid Cymru in the co-operation agreement. Our absolute focus now is on working with our partners to increase the capacity of schools to deliver this extended provision.
Welsh: Ie, cyhoeddais ddatganiad ysgrifenedig ar 17 Rhagfyr, yn amlinellu'r gweithgareddau a'r blaenoriaethau sy'n gysylltiedig â chyflwyno prydau ysgol am ddim i ddisgyblion ysgolion cynradd, gan adlewyrchu'r cytundeb a wnaethpwyd gyda Phlaid Cymru yn y cytundeb cydweithio. Mae ein ffocws pendant yn awr ar weithio gyda'n partneriaid i gynyddu gallu ysgolion i gyflwyno'r ddarpariaeth estynedig hon.
