English: Thank you very much for coming to see us today. I'm going to turn to the aspect of oral complaints and this desire that evidence can be submitted orally. I gather from your evidence that you are for this move towards oral complaints. But why do we need to change the Act in order to do so, because the power is there currently for the ombudsman to go into oral complaints? So, why do you feel that it's important to change the Act? And, perhaps, the second thing: do you think that clear guidance is needed in the process of receiving oral complaints? The Welsh NHS Confederation has told us that in evidence, and we'd like to have your view on this in answer to those two aspects to start. Liz to start, maybe.
Welsh: Diolch yn fawr am ddod i mewn atom ni'r bore yma. Rydw i'n mynd i droi at yr agwedd o gwynion llafar a'r awydd yma fod tystiolaeth yn gallu cael ei chyflwyno ar lafar. Rydw i'n cymryd o'ch tystiolaeth chi yr ydych chi o blaid y symudiad yma tuag at gwynion llafar. Ond pam fod angen newid y Ddeddf er mwyn gwneud hynny, achos mae'r pŵer yna ar hyn o bryd gan yr ombwdsmon i fynd i mewn i'r maes cwynion llafar, beth bynnag? Felly, pam eich bod chi'n teimlo ei bod hi'n bwysig newid y Ddeddf? Ac efallai'r ail beth: a ydych chi'n teimlo bod angen canllawiau clir yn y broses o dderbyn galwadau a chwynion llafar? Mae Conffederasiwn GIG Cymru wedi dweud hynny wrthym ni mewn tystiolaeth, a hoffem ni gael eich barn chi. So, a fedrwch chi ateb y ddau beth yna i ddechrau? Efallai Liz i ddechrau.
English: Sorry, just briefly, I wanted to ask what your definition of screening would be. I don't want to be cynical, but perhaps what you perceive as screening would be different to what the confederation would perceive or would want to see happening. I wouldn't want to see screening happening to assess, perhaps, the risk of some kind of attempt to complain that they wouldn't have considered. Perhaps one person would decide to consider it, but another person would decide not to if they'd gone to another body. And another question that I had was: in our office - and I don't know whether other Assembly Members do this - I would recommend that people write a complaint so that there is a record somewhere that there is something out there to show that something has happened, and if something goes wrong, then there is something that can be used as evidence as an example in the process. What's your opinion if they give oral evidence, what happens to that evidence? How is it recorded at the same level as those people who submit written evidence?
Welsh: Sori, jest yn fras, roeddwn i jest eisiau gofyn beth fyddai eich diffiniad chi o sgrinio. Nid wyf eisiau bod yn sinigaidd, ond efallai bod beth rydych chi'n ei gredu yw sgrinio yn wahanol iawn i beth fyddai'r confederation eisiau ei weld yn digwydd. Hynny yw, ni fyddwn i eisiau gweld sgrinio yn digwydd i asesu, efallai, risg rhyw fath o ymgais i gwyno, efallai, na fyddan nhw wedi'i ystyried. Bydd un person yn penderfynu ystyried, ond bydd person arall yn penderfynu peidio ystyried pe baent wedi mynd at gorff arall. A'r cwestiwn arall oedd gen i oedd: yn ein swyddfa ni - ac nid wyf yn siŵr os yw Aelodau Cynulliad eraill yn gwneud hyn - rwyf fel arfer yn argymell i bobl ysgrifennu'r gŵyn oherwydd bydd yna record yn rhywle bod rhywbeth yn yr ether i gyfiawnhau bod hynny wedi digwydd, ac os oes rhywbeth yn mynd yn wrong bod rhywbeth wedyn i'w ddefnyddio fel enghraifft lawr y broses. Beth yw'ch barn chi o ran os ydynt yn rhoi tystiolaeth ar lafar, beth sydd yn digwydd i hynny? Sut mae'n cael ei gadw ar yr un lefel â phobl sydd yn rhoi tystiolaeth yn ysgrifenedig?
English: Just a question to Liz first of all about this concept of a complaints-handling authority. You say that you would be content to see that being put in place to improve or drive up the standards on complaints handling. Is that something that you've seen happening in other countries, or is this something that you've always supported? Could you just expand on that, please?
Welsh: Jest cwestiwn i Liz yn gyntaf ynglŷn â'r cysyniad yma o'r angen am awdurdod handlo cwynion. Rŷch chi'n sôn y byddech chi'n hapus i weld hynny er mwyn gwella safon cwynion. A ydy hynny'n rhywbeth rŷch chi wedi'i weld yn digwydd mewn gwledydd eraill, neu a ydy hynny'n rhywbeth rŷch chi wastad wedi ei gefnogi? A allech chi jest ehangu ar hynny?
English: So, the complaints would go there first so that you could look at the themes. I haven't been here for the ombudsman's evidence, so I need to read up on that, but does it go there first, or at the end of the process so that emerging themes are considered? What kind of role will that have? Do you receive support across the sector? Do the WLGA and the councils support this concept?
Welsh: So, byddai'r cwynion yn mynd yna gyntaf i weld y themâu. Nid wyf wedi bod yma ar gyfer tystiolaeth yr ombwdsman, so mae angen i fi ddarllen lan, ond a ydy e'n mynd yna gyntaf neu a ydy e'n mynd ar y diwedd er mwyn gweld y themâu? Pa fath o rôl fydd hynny yn chwarae? A ydych chi'n cael cefnogaeth dros y sector? A ydy'r WLGA a'r cynghorau yn cefnogi'r cysyniad yma hefyd?
English: I think we've dealt with the voluntary model, but one point that I would like to confirm with the councils is how, on a real, practical level, that has reduced the burden on the ombudsman. You said that, because you've come to a compromise or an agreement with the person who submits a complaint - . Has that then stopped complaints being passed on to the ombudsman? Do you have evidence of that?
Welsh: Rwy'n credu ein bod ni wedi delio gyda'r model gwirfoddoli, ond rwy'n credu mai jest un pwynt yr hoffwn i ei gadarnhau o ran y cynghorau yw sut mae hynny, ar lefel real, wedi lleihau y bwrn ar yr ombwdsmon. Rydych chi'n dweud, gan eich bod chi wedi dod i gyfaddawd neu wedi dod i gytundeb gyda'r person sydd yn rhoi'r gŵyn i mewn - . A ydy hynny wedi stopio, wedyn, cwynion rhag mynd i'r ombwdmson? A oes gennych chi dystiolaeth i ddangos hynny?
English: Yes. I'm just taking an interest in what you were saying, that we could try it, and then amend the regulations if needed. Is that an appropriate way of working? Wouldn't it be better for us to have these criteria set correctly in the Bill itself? Giving, afterwards, the right to Ministers to change through regulation - doesn't that then undermine the independence of the ombudsman?
Welsh: Ie. Rwy'n cymryd diddordeb yn yr hyn yr rŷch chi'n ei ddweud, y buaswn ni'n gallu ei drio fo, ac wedyn diwygio'r rheoliadau os oes angen. A ydy honno'n ffordd briodol o weithio? Onid ydy e'n well i ni gael y meini prawf yn gywir ar y Bil ei hun? Mae, wedyn, rhoi hawl i Weinidogion newid drwy reoliadau - onid ydy hynny wedyn yn tanseilio annibyniaeth yr ombwdsmon?
English: I agree that it's important to have the criteria on the face of the Bill. That's the best place for them. I've seen what the Finance Committee has suggested in the tests that they've applied on the face of the Bill at present. They're not unreasonable, I think. They do put things in place to try and make it clear that the ombudsman can't just do what he wants. If the committee comes to the conclusion that there should be more tests included, well, I'm entirely open to hearing what the committee says, of course. But there is something on the face of the Bill now that, when the ombudsman tries to use these powers, and to do so practically, if things don't work out as we'd all expected, then there is the possibility there for the Ministers to come back to the Assembly to put other things in place.
Welsh: Wel, rydw i'n cytuno ei bod hi'n bwysig gael y meini prawf ar wyneb y Mesur - y lle gorau. Rydw i wedi gweld beth y mae'r Pwyllgor Cyllid wedi'i awgrymu yn y profion y maen nhw wedi'i rhoi ar wyneb y Mesur ar hyn o bryd. Nid ydyn nhw yn afresymol, rydw i'n meddwl. Maen nhw yn rhoi pethau mewn lle i dreial fod yn glir nad ydy'r ombwdsmon jest yn gallu gwneud beth bynnag mae eisiau ei wneud. Os yw'r pwyllgor yn dod i'r casgliad bod yna fwy o brofion bydd yn rhaid i ni eu rhoi mewn ar hyn o bryd, wel, rydw i'n hollol agored i glywed beth y mae'r pwyllgor yn ei ddweud, wrth gwrs. Ond mae rhywbeth ar wyneb y Mesur nawr hefyd, lle, os, pan fo'r ombwdsmon yn defnyddio'r pwerau, ac yn gwneud hyn yn ymarferol, nad yw pethau'n gweithio mas fel roeddem ni i gyd yn disgwyl, mae posibiliad i'r Gweinidogion ddod nôl at y Cynulliad i roi mwy o bethau mewn lle.
English: But should it be the Government doing that or should it be the Assembly? Shouldn't there be a scrutiny role, and that that transparency around inquiries lies with the Assembly in order to protect the independence of the ombudsman?
Welsh: Ond ai'r Llywodraeth ddylai fod yn gwneud hynny ynteu'r Cynulliad? Oni ddylai fod yna rôl graffu, a bod y tryloywder yna o gwmpas yr ymchwiliadau yn gorwedd efo'r Cynulliad er mwyn diogelu annibyniaeth swydd yr ombwdsmon?
English: Well, of course, I see the point. At present, what we have is that the power to instigate things will still be in the hands of Ministers. I see what Siân is asking - whether that's the right way of doing it, or the best way of doing it. But the decision will be for the Assembly, because the Ministers will come forward with suggestions, but it's through the affirmative process that this will be done in the Bill that we have. So, ultimately, it's the Assembly that can make the decision whether they want to move in the same direction that the Ministers suggest.
Welsh: Wel, wrth gwrs, rydw i'n gweld y pwynt yna. Ar hyn o bryd, beth sydd gyda ni yw y bydd y pŵer i ddechrau pethau yn dal yn nwylo'r Gweinidogion. Rydw i'n gweld beth y mae Siân yn ei ddweud - ai honno yw'r ffordd orau o'i wneud ef? Ond mae'r penderfyniad yn nwylo'r Cynulliad. Os yw'r Gweinidogion yn dod ymlaen ag awgrymiadau, trwy'r affirmative process fydd hynny yn y Bil sydd gyda ni. So, ar ddiwedd y dydd, mae'r Cynulliad yn gallu gwneud y penderfyniad os ydyn nhw eisiau symud yn y ffordd y mae'r Gweinidogion yn ei hawgrymu.
English: Thank you. I note in the letter that you sent to the committee on 20 December that you feel that the Public Services Ombudsman (Wales) Bill is not the best way of dealing with complaints regarding the Welsh language - that that is an issue for the Welsh language Bill - and that that is the opinion of the ombudsman too. I'm pleased to see that in black and white from the Government. Can I just press you a little bit? Do you feel, ultimately, that, through the Welsh language Bill, it is the ombudsman who should be dealing with complaints regarding the Welsh language?
Welsh: Diolch. Rwy'n nodi yn y llythyr y gwnaethoch chi ei anfon at y pwyllgor ar 20 Rhagfyr eich bod chi'n teimlo nad y Bil Ombwdsmon Gwasanaethau Cyhoeddus (Cymru) ydy'r ffordd i ymdrin â chwynion ynghylch y Gymraeg - bod hynny yn fater ar gyfer Bil y Gymraeg - ac mai dyna ydy barn yr ombwdsmon hefyd. Rwy'n falch iawn o weld hynny ar ddu a gwyn gan y Llywodraeth. A gaf i jest eich pwyso chi ychydig bach? A ydych chi'n credu yn y pen draw, drwy Bil y Gymraeg, mai'r ombwdsmon ddylai fod yn ymdrin â chwynion am y Gymraeg?
English: Well, I'm not in the best position to come to a decision on that particular issue. What I think is that the ombudsman has suggested something. It's important that we consider what he has suggested. I know that the Minister with responsibility for the Welsh language will want to consider what the ombudsman has suggested. If she comes to the conclusion that the way that the ombudsman has suggested is the right way forward, what I'm saying here is that the Bill that's before the committee today isn't the way to pursue those ideas. But, as I understand it, the Minister is continuing to consider the idea to see whether that's something that she would want to support.
Welsh: Wel, nid wyf yn y lle gorau i ddod at benderfyniad ar y pwnc yma. Beth rwy'n meddwl yw bod yr ombwdsmon wedi awgrymu rhywbeth. Mae'n bwysig i feddwl am beth mae e wedi ei awgrymu. Rwy'n gwybod y bydd y Gweinidog gyda'r cyfrifoldeb am yr iaith Gymraeg eisiau ystyried beth mae'r ombwdsmon wedi awgrymu. Os bydd hi'n dod at y casgliad mai'r ffordd y mae'r ombwdsman wedi ei awgrymu yw'r ffordd orau i fynd ymlaen, beth rydw i'n ei ddweud fan hyn yw: nid y Bil sydd o flaen y pwyllgor heddiw yw'r ffordd i fwrw ymlaen gyda'r syniadau yna. Ond, fel rydw i'n deall, mae'r Gweinidog yn dal i feddwl am y syniad, i weld a yw hwnnw'n rhywbeth y mae hi eisiau ei gefnogi.
English: Thank you. It's very clear that it's got nothing to do with the discussion that we're having in this committee.
Welsh: Diolch. Mae'n glir, hollol, nad ydy o ddim byd i'w wneud efo'r drafodaeth rydym ni'n ei gael yn y pwyllgor yma.
English: Okay. In terms of complaints, you say, in the same letter, that the Government does not currently want to express an opinion regarding adopting an exemplar complaints policy across public services. Why do you say that? Why don't you have an opinion?
Welsh: Iawn. O ran y cwynion, rydych chi'n dweud yn yr un un llythyr nad ydy'r Llywodraeth eisiau mynegi barn am y tro ynghylch mabwysiadu polisi cwynion enghreifftiol ar draws y gwasanaethau cyhoeddus. Pam eich bod chi'n dweud hynny? Pam nad ydych chi efo barn?
English: I think that we'll come back to the specific procedures, but just in general, regarding complaints, you are happy with extending to oral complaints, even though the ombudsman currently has the right to do that - it doesn't have to be in an Act, from what I understand. So, why does this need to be part of an Act? Also, is this going to open the floodgates? Are we going to create a culture where everyone makes a complaint about everything because it's so easy to do so through the oral complaints procedure?
Welsh: Rydw i'n meddwl y byddwn ni'n dod yn ôl at y gweithdrefnau penodol, ond jest yn gyffredinol, ynglŷn â'r cwynion, rydych chi'n hapus efo'r ymestyn i'r cwynion llafar, er bod gan yr ombwdsman yr hawl i wneud hynny rŵan - nid oes yn rhaid iddo fo fod mewn Deddf, yn ôl yr hyn rwy'n ei ddeall. Felly, pam bod angen iddo fo fod mewn Deddf? Hefyd, a ydy hyn yn mynd i agor y llifddorau? A ydym ni'n mynd i greu diwylliant lle mae pawb yn cwyno am bob dim oherwydd ei fod yn haws i wneud drwy ddull llafar?
English: I'm not sure. Perhaps we'll have to have an explanation - I'm not entirely sure.
Welsh: Nid wyf yn siŵr. Efallai bydd rhaid inni gael eglurhad - nid wyf yn hollol siŵr.
English: Of course. It is important to be sure about this. Perhaps Nick could explain this.
Welsh: Wrth gwrs. Mae'n bwysig i fod yn siŵr. Cawn weld. Gall Nick esbonio.
English: Clearly you have concerns regarding the accuracy of the financial information provided in the regulatory impact assessment. Can you outline which specific areas of the assessment you are concerned about and why?
Welsh: Yn amlwg mae gennych chi bryderon ynghylch cywirdeb y wybodaeth ariannol sy'n cael ei darparu yn yr asesiad effaith rheoleiddiol. A fedrwch chi amlinellu pa feysydd penodol o'r asesiad yr ydych chi'n poeni amdanyn nhw a pham?
English: Due to this concern, you've said that you will delay before you submit the financial resolution on the Bill so that you can inspect some of the issues that you have noted - issues that other witnesses have noted and that the WLGA have raised with us this morning. There are a number of concerns in this area. So, you're going to delay it, aren't you? What work will you do during that period, and how long will you take to do that work?
Welsh: Oherwydd y pryder yma, rydych chi wedi dweud eich bod chi'n mynd i oedi cyflwyno y penderfyniad ariannol ar y Bil er mwyn archwilio rhai o'r materion rydych chi wedi eu nodi - materion y mae tystion eraill wedi eu nodi, materion y mae'r WLGA wedi eu codi efo ni bore yma. Mae yna nifer fawr o bryderon yn y maes. Felly, rydych chi'n mynd i oedi, onid ydych chi? Pa waith fyddwch chi'n ei wneud yn ystod y cyfnod yna, a pha mor hir byddwch chi'n ei gymryd i wneud y gwaith?
English: Well, we have six months. That's the process that the Assembly has in place. This isn't the first time that we've done it in this way. I was the Minister responsible on the Government side when Kirsty Williams brought forward her Bill with regard to nurse staffing levels. In that particular example, we couldn't move to a financial resolution straight after Stage 1. But it's not work to be done by the Government. In that example, the work was for the Member bringing forward the Bill. Of course, the Government was willing to collaborate with the Member to help her do the work that was up to her to do, and having seen what the committee will say in your report, I expect that there will be more work to do on the RIA. It'll be down to the Finance Committee to do that, but I'm prepared to say today that the Government will be open to collaborating with them where we can assist.
Welsh: Wel, mae chwe mis gyda ni o dan y prosesau sydd gyda'r Cynulliad, ac nid hwn yw'r tro cyntaf i ni ei wneud e fel hyn; fi oedd y Gweinidog a oedd yn gyfrifol ar ochr y Llywodraeth pan roedd Kirsty Williams yn dod ymlaen gyda ei Bil hi ar staffio nyrsys, ac yn yr enghraifft yna, nid oeddem ni'n gallu symud y financial resolution yn syth ar ôl Cyfnod 1. Ond nid yw'r gwaith yn cwympo i'r Llywodraeth i'w wneud. Yn yr enghraifft yna, roedd y gwaith yn cwympo i'r Aelod a oedd yn dod ymlaen gyda'r Bil. Wrth gwrs, roedd y Llywodraeth yn fodlon cydweithio â'r Aelod i'w helpu hi i wneud y gwaith a oedd lawr iddi hi ei wneud, ac ar ôl gweld beth fydd y pwyllgor yn ei ddweud yn eich adroddiad chi, rydw i'n disgwyl y bydd mwy o waith i'w wneud ar yr RIA. Lawr i'r Pwyllgor Cyllid fydd e i wneud hynny, ond rydw i'n fodlon dweud heddiw y bydd y Llywodraeth yn agored i gydweithio â nhw lle rydym ni'n gallu helpu.
English: Just one point to finish, the additional expenditure that this could entail for public services that are already facing pressures: are you concerned about that? Does that need more attention than it is currently receiving?
Welsh: Ocê. Jest un pwynt i orffen, felly, y gwariant ychwanegol y gall hyn ei olygu ar gyfer gwasanaethau cyhoeddus sydd o dan straen yn barod: a ydych chi'n bryderus am hynny? A ydy hynny angen mwy o sylw nag y mae o'n ei gael ar hyn o bryd?
English: Well, I am, Chair, and that's the point that I was making originally.
Welsh: Wel, rydw i yn, Gadeirydd, a dyna beth oedd y pwynt roeddwn i'n ei wneud yn wreiddiol.
English: I was going to ask a similar question about the correspondence regarding the human rights Act. Perhaps in the private session later on we could discuss what exactly are the next steps that we as a committee are going to be taking regarding human rights, because things are moving forward very quickly at Westminster regarding the withdrawal Bill, and there is increasing concern that the level of human rights will be lost in Wales. I think that we need to be proactive on this point or we will lose out as a nation in this area. So, I think it's appropriate for us to have a conversation about the next steps we should be considering in this specific area.
Welsh: Roeddwn i'n mynd i ofyn cwestiwn tebyg ynglŷn â'r ohebiaeth ynglŷn â'r Ddeddf hawliau dynol. Efallai mewn sesiwn breifat nes ymlaen gallwn ni drafod beth yn union ydy'r camau nesaf rydym ni fel pwyllgor yn mynd i fod yn eu cymryd o gwmpas hawliau dynol, achos mae pethau'n symud yn sydyn iawn yn San Steffan efo'r withdrawal Bill, ac mae'r pryder yn cynyddu bod lefel yr hawliau dynol yn mynd i gael ei cholli yng Nghymru. Rydw i'n meddwl bod rhaid inni fod yn proactive ar y pwynt yma, neu byddwn ni'n colli allan fel cenedl yn y maes yma. Felly, rydw i'n meddwl ei fod yn briodol inni gael sgwrs ynglŷn â pha gamau nesaf y dylem ni fod yn edrych arnyn nhw yn y maes penodol yma.
English: Good morning. If I may welcome everyone to this first meeting of the Finance Committee in this new year and wish you all a very happy new year. In Cwm Gwaun, we haven't quite passed into the new year according to the old calendar, so it is appropriate to do so. Now, at the beginning of the meeting I will just set out that we have received apologies from Steffan Lewis whilst he is suffering from cancer. It was good to see him in the Assembly this week, but whilst he is receiving treatment, of course, he will be unable to attend future meetings. I wish him well, and I'm sure you would all join me in wishing him a full recovery and all the best. So, thank you very much for that. I remind everyone to switch off any electronic devices, and that translation is on channel 1 and amplification is on channel 0. I ask whether any Member, particularly at the beginning of the new year, has any declarations of interest to make. Very good.
Welsh: Bore da. Os caf i groesawu pawb i gyfarfod cyntaf y Pwyllgor Cyllid yn y flwyddyn newydd, gan ddymuno blwyddyn newydd dda i chi. Gan nad yw'r Hen Galan wedi pasio yng Nghwm Gwaun eto, mae'n dal yn briodol yng Nghymru i ddymuno blwyddyn newydd dda, rydw i'n meddwl. Jest ar ddechrau'r cyfarfod i nodi, wrth gwrs, fod gyda ni ymddiheuriadau gan Steffan Lewis, tra ei fod e'n dioddef o ganser. Roedd yn braf iawn ei weld e yn y Cynulliad yr wythnos yma, ond tra ei fod e'n derbyn triniaeth, wrth gwrs, ni fydd e'n gallu dod i'r pwyllgor. Rwy'n dymuno'n dda iddo fe, ac rydw i'n siŵr y byddech chi i gyd yn ymuno â fi yn dymuno gwellhad a phob llwyddiant i Steffan Lewis. Gwawn ni wneud hynny. Diolch yn fawr. Rydw i'n atgoffa pawb, felly, i dawelu unrhyw ddyfeisiadau electronig, a bod cyfieithu ar sianel 1 a lefel y sain gwreiddiol ar sianel 0. A oes gan unrhyw Aelod, ar ddechrau'r flwyddyn newydd yn arbennig, unrhyw fuddiant i'w ddatgan? Popeth yn iawn, felly.
English: We will just note some papers before we turn to our witnesses this morning. We have received papers over the break, and there is a list of a number of them. I will not name them all, but they do include the minutes of the past two previous meetings. So, is the committee happy to agree the minutes and to note the papers?
Welsh: Jest i nodi papurau yn gyntaf, cyn i ni droi at y tystion y bore yma - . Mae yna bapurau wedi'u derbyn dros y toriad, wrth gwrs. Mae yna restr o nifer ohonyn nhw; wnaf i ddim eu henwi nhw i gyd, ond maen nhw'n cynnwys cofnodion o'r ddau gyfarfod diwethaf yn ogystal. A ydy'r pwyllgor yn gytûn i nodi a chytuno'r cofnodion?
English: We will turn, therefore, to our first evidence session this morning and welcome the members from the Wales Audit Office. We will be looking at the devolution of fiscal powers to Wales and the progress that has been made under the Act, and the arrangements for fiscal devolution. So, if I may just ask the officials from the WAO to state their names and functions for the record, thank you.
Welsh: Gwnawn ni droi, felly, at y sesiwn dystiolaeth y bore yma, a chroesawu'r aelodau o Swyddfa Archwilio Cymru. Rŷm ni'n edrych ar ddatganoli cyllidol yng Nghymru ac, wrth gwrs, y cynnydd sydd wedi bod o dan y Ddeddf a'r trefniant ar gyfer datganoli cyllidol. Os caf i jest ofyn i swyddogion y swyddfa ddatgan eu henwau a'u swyddogaethau ar gyfer y cofnod, os gwelwch yn dda.
English: Thank you very much, and a warm welcome, therefore. Now, as we've received the very comprehensive report from you, I'm sure you will be content if we do move straight into questions on that basis. If I may just open with a general question, in the previous report you strongly recommended that there should be detailed delivery plans from the Government, and that the key milestones should be delivered in addition. So, can you give the committee an update on how that process has taken place and whether you broadly believe that the Government has reached those milestones?
Welsh: Diolch yn fawr iawn, a chroeso mawr i chi, felly. Gan ein bod ni wedi derbyn adroddiad cynhwysfawr iawn gennych chi, wrth gwrs, mae'n siŵr eich bod chi'n hapus ein bod ni'n symud yn syth at gwestiynau ar sail hwnnw. Os caf i jest agor yn gyffredinol, rydych chi wedi, yn yr adroddiad blaenorol, argymell yn gryf iawn y dylai fod yna gynlluniau cyflawni manwl gan y Llywodraeth, a chyflawni cerrig milltir allweddol hefyd. A fedrwch chi ddiweddaru'r pwyllgor ar sut mae'r broses yna wedi digwydd? A ydych chi'n meddwl, yn fras iawn, bod y Llywodraeth wedi cyrraedd y cerrig milltir yna?
