English: Diolch yn fawr, Dirprwy Lywydd, and I so move the amendment. Can I start by thanking Plaid Cymru for putting this motion down today? It's a very important subject, and I think it was quite poignant, what Bethan said - that in the run-up to Christmas, it's like one of the annual things that get attention, and, really, we need a much greater ambition than that. I think using your time for a minority party debate on housing and homelessness this afternoon is a good way to do that. I do think, and perhaps it's building on what Bethan said, that there is a lot of consensus in this area about the priority that needs to be given to tackling this very acute problem, but also the fact that it is, potentially, beyond the party political battleground. That's why I think the idea of a commission, an all-party commission, to sit down and to really get to grips with a strategy that could unite us but have a high enough priority in terms of what our objectives are, and also to set a very particular target to eliminate rough-sleeping - . I think a lot of us see homelessness and rough-sleeping - they create slightly different challenges. Rough-sleeping, I think, is an absolute disgrace - that it goes on. I am of the generation when you could remember it starting, really, as a phenomenon. It's not something that we've had since the second world war, necessarily, and there was a time when there were just one or two people in towns and cities. I think we really need to look at this. It's a very, very deep phenomenon, and it needs some very careful addressing, but I commend the work of the mayor of Manchester, Andy Burnham, who has, I know, set a target for 2020. That's why it's in our amendment. Others may have a view on that, but I think a commission could look at it, but really starting with rough-sleeping and ending that as soon as possible, and then an ambitious strategy, as well, for homelessness, which will have to be related to a wide range of things, including more social housing. But it is, I think, time to raise the bar and not get into this cycle of an annual discussion around Christmastime, but the problem persists, and it doesn't seem to be going in the direction we want it to in terms of a sustainable solution. Can I refer to the auditor general's report on homelessness, which was published yesterday? I think it's important that we reflect on that. I know, obviously, the Public Accounts Committee will look at it. It starts by saying that this is a challenging area, and that's why, I think, it needs a cross-party approach, as well. It's not knock-about political stuff, in my view. I think we need to really get beyond that. It is caused by a range of complex and overlapping reasons, and as the auditor general says, it is, and I quote, 'much more than putting a roof over people's heads'. It is related to many aspects of someone's life. However, I think we have to be aware that, whilst the change that was brought in with the housing Act to turn towards prevention is widely commended, local authorities are not fulfilling, in a consistent way, their duties under that Act, but also, I think, very concerning, according to the auditor general, the Equality Act 2010, and also the Well-being of Future Generations (Wales) Act 2015. So, again, I think it's very important that we've got those important statutes there that should be ensuring that this need is met much more effectively, and I think all parties need to come together to push that agenda. I think there were some clear lessons for local authorities as well. The Government can set the legislative framework and the priorities and the budgeting, but it is carried out by local authorities, and housing associations and other key agencies. I think what the auditor general says there is really important: the skills of demand management, the need to provide advice and information. And in fairness to the Government, although Bethan talked about priority categories for homelessness, everyone is entitled to advice and information on housing, and I think many thought that was a key benefit of the legislation. Effective collaboration is key, and also engagement with service users, which is often lacking. I'm now out of time, but can I just commend the housing first model? It's certainly something we've looked at, and feel that it's a good way of taking forward - . The idea that you start with a person in a home and you build around that has really been a key breakthrough in some very interesting areas, as Bethan indicated with her example in Utah. So, I think there's much merit in us going down that route as well. Thank you, Deputy Presiding Officer.
Welsh: Diolch yn fawr, Ddirprwy Lywydd, ac rwy'n cynnig y gwelliant. A gaf fi ddechrau drwy ddiolch i Blaid Cymru am gyflwyno'r cynnig hwn heddiw? Mae'n bwnc pwysig iawn, ac roedd yn eithaf ingol, yr hyn a ddywedodd Bethan - wrth nesáu at y Nadolig, mae fel un o'r pethau sy'n cael sylw bob blwyddyn, ac mewn gwirionedd, mae angen mwy o uchelgais na hynny. Credaf fod defnyddio eich amser ar gyfer dadl plaid leiafrifol ar dai a digartrefedd y prynhawn yma yn ffordd dda o wneud hynny. Rwy'n meddwl, ac efallai ei fod yn adeiladu ar yr hyn a ddywedodd Bethan, fod llawer o gonsensws yn y maes hwn am y flaenoriaeth sydd angen ei rhoi i fynd i'r afael â'r broblem ddifrifol hon, ond hefyd y ffaith ei bod, o bosibl, yn mynd y tu hwnt i wleidyddiaeth plaid. Dyna pam y credaf fod y syniad o gomisiwn, comisiwn hollbleidiol, i gyfarfod a mynd i'r afael go iawn â strategaeth a allai ein huno ond a fyddai'n cael blaenoriaeth ddigon uchel o ran beth yw ein hamcanion, ac i osod targed penodol iawn hefyd i gael gwared ar gysgu ar y stryd - . Credaf fod llawer ohonom yn gweld digartrefedd a chysgu ar y stryd - maent yn creu heriau ychydig yn wahanol. Mae cysgu ar y stryd yn warth llwyr yn fy marn i - gwarth ei fod yn digwydd. Rwy'n perthyn i genhedlaeth pan allwch ei gofio'n dechrau, mewn gwirionedd, fel ffenomen. Nid yw'n rhywbeth a fu gennym ers yr ail ryfel byd, o reidrwydd, ac roedd adeg pan nad oedd ond un neu ddau o bobl mewn trefi a dinasoedd. Credaf fod gwir angen inni edrych ar hyn. Mae'n ffenomen ddofn iawn, ac mae angen ymdrin â hi'n ofalus iawn, ond rwy'n cymeradwyo gwaith maer Manceinion, Andy Burnham, sydd wedi gosod targed ar gyfer 2020. Dyna pam ei fod yn ein gwelliant. Efallai y bydd gan eraill farn ar hynny, ond credaf y gallai comisiwn ei ystyried, ond gan ddechrau o ddifrif gyda chysgu ar y stryd a rhoi terfyn ar hynny cyn gynted â phosibl, ac yna strategaeth uchelgeisiol hefyd ar gyfer digartrefedd, a bydd yn rhaid iddi fod yn gysylltiedig ag amrywiaeth eang o bethau, gan gynnwys rhagor o dai cymdeithasol. Ond credaf ei bod yn bryd codi'r bar a pheidio â mynd i'r cylch hwn o drafod yn flynyddol o gwmpas adeg y Nadolig, ond mae'r broblem yn parhau, ac nid yw'n ymddangos ei bod yn mynd i'r cyfeiriad rydym eisiau iddi fynd o ran ateb cynaliadwy. A gaf fi cyfeirio at adroddiad yr Archwilydd Cyffredinol ar ddigartrefedd a gyhoeddwyd ddoe? Credaf ei bod yn bwysig inni fyfyrio ar hynny. Yn amlwg, rwy'n gwybod y bydd y Pwyllgor Cyfrifon Cyhoeddus yn edrych a y mater. Mae'n dechrau drwy ddweud bod hwn yn faes heriol, a dyna pam rwyf o'r farn fod angen ymagwedd drawsbleidiol hefyd. Nid yw'n ddeunydd ar gyfer colbio gwleidyddol yn fy marn i. Credaf fod angen inni fynd y tu hwnt i hynny go iawn. Caiff ei achosi gan amrywiaeth o resymau cymhleth sy'n gorgyffwrdd, ac fel y mae'r Archwilydd Cyffredinol yn dweud, 'mae a wnelo datrys digartrefedd â llawer mwy na rhoi cartref i bobl.' Mae'n gysylltiedig â llawer o agweddau ar fywyd rhywun. Fodd bynnag, rwy'n credu bod yn rhaid inni fod yn ymwybodol, er bod y newid a ddaeth i mewn gyda'r Ddeddf tai i droi tuag at atal wedi cael ei ganmol yn eang, nid yw awdurdodau lleol yn cyflawni eu dyletswyddau o dan y Ddeddf honno mewn ffordd gyson, ond hefyd, mae'n destun pryder mawr yn ôl yr Archwilydd Cyffredinol, nad ydynt yn gwneud hynny o dan Ddeddf Cydraddoldeb 2010 chwaith, na Deddf Llesiant Cenedlaethau'r Dyfodol (Cymru) 2015. Felly, unwaith eto, rwy'n credu ei bod hi'n bwysig iawn fod gennym y statudau hynny yno a ddylai sicrhau bod yr angen hwn yn cael ei ddiwallu'n llawer mwy effeithiol, ac rwy'n meddwl bod yn rhaid i bob plaid ddod at ei gilydd i wthio'r agenda honno. Credaf fod yna rai gwersi clir i awdurdodau lleol hefyd. Gall y Llywodraeth osod y fframwaith deddfwriaethol a'r blaenoriaethau a'r gyllideb, ond caiff y gwaith ei gyflawni gan awdurdodau lleol a chymdeithasau tai ac asiantaethau allweddol eraill. Rwy'n credu bod yr hyn y mae'r archwilydd cyffredinol yn ei ddweud yno yn bwysig dros ben: sgiliau rheoli'r galw, yr angen i ddarparu cyngor a gwybodaeth. Ac er tegwch i'r Llywodraeth, er bod Bethan wedi sôn am gategorïau blaenoriaeth ar gyfer digartrefedd, mae gan bawb hawl i gyngor a gwybodaeth am dai, ac rwy'n credu bod llawer o'r farn mai dyna un o fanteision allweddol y ddeddfwriaeth. Mae cydweithio effeithiol yn allweddol, ac ymgysylltu â defnyddwyr gwasanaethau hefyd, rhywbeth sy'n aml ar goll. Mae fy amser wedi dod i ben yn awr, ond a gaf fi gymeradwyo'r model tai yn gyntaf? Mae'n sicr yn rhywbeth rydym wedi edrych arno, ac yn teimlo ei fod yn ffordd dda o symud ymlaen - . Mae'r syniad eich bod yn dechrau gydag unigolyn mewn cartref a'ch bod yn adeiladu o gwmpas hynny wedi bod yn gam allweddol ymlaen mewn rhai mannau diddorol iawn, fel y dangosodd Bethan gyda'i henghraifft yn Utah. Felly, credaf fod llawer o rinwedd mewn dilyn y llwybr hwnnw hefyd. Diolch, Ddirprwy Lywydd.
