English: Thank you very much, Deputy Presiding Officer. It's my pleasure today to present these regulations to the Chamber. I ask Members this afternoon to pass these regulations. Some Members, of course, will recall that we had this debate on the very last day of the Assembly that concluded last year. Members will also know that these regulations were rejected by the Assembly at that time. I do hope that Members will appreciate the fact that I have taken some time to read the record of the debate that we had on that afternoon, and I have taken time to read the contributions of Aled Roberts, Simon Thomas and Suzy Davies. I've read what the contributions were at that time, and I very much hope that these regulations will respond to that debate and to the vote taken last year. I would not be content, and the Government wouldn't be presenting these regulations today, unless we were confident that we had responded to the concerns of Assembly Members as they were expressed in March and prior to that, and after the vote. Since then, I have tried to have discussions with Members and various organisations to understand why the regulations were rejected, and I have amended the regulations as a result of these discussions. The changes that we have made respond to the points raised by Members, and I hope that the amendments reflect the views of the Assembly as they were expressed then and the views of the Assembly today. The changes I have made are as follows: we have given students the right to express a wish to have Welsh-medium accommodation; we have created a right to have signs in the buildings of universities and colleges in Welsh; we've created a right to a Welsh language intranet; we have added arts centres to the standards; and we are ensuring that students will have a right to a personal tutor who is able to communicate in Welsh. The final point is that I would thank Sian Gwenllian and Plaid Cymru for the debate that we had on this issue. I welcome the contribution that Plaid Cymru has made, and I thank Sian Gwenllian for her contribution during these discussions. Members will be aware that these regulations were discussed by the Culture, Welsh Language and Communications Committee some weeks ago. As a result of the amendments that we have made, and on the basis of the fact that there have been broad-ranging discussions on these regulations, I ask Members today to agree the regulations as amended. Of course, I do commit to amend the Welsh Language (Wales) Measure 2011 during this Assembly in order to ensure that the system of imposing standards is less bureaucratic. I am eager to start gathering evidence, and we will begin that process by engaging with partners prior to the publication of a White Paper. We will consult very broadly over the summer months. Consultation and legislation take time. I am eager that we should commence the process as soon as possible. I very much hope that I have responded to the debate held here, and I very much hope that I've responded to the concerns that we have heard expressed about these regulations. On that basis, I propose that Members do agree these regulations this afternoon. Thank you.
Welsh: Diolch yn fawr, Ddirprwy Lywydd, ac mae'n bleser gen i heddiw gyflwyno y rheoliadau yma. Rwy'n gofyn i Aelodau'r prynhawn yma i dderbyn y rheoliadau. Mi fydd rhai Aelodau, wrth gwrs, yn cofio y cawsom ni'r drafodaeth yma ar ddiwrnod olaf y Cynulliad a ddaeth i ben y llynedd, ac mi fydd Aelodau hefyd yn gwybod bod y rheoliadau yma wedi cael eu gwrthod gan y Cynulliad bryd hynny. Rwy'n gobeithio y bydd Aelodau yn gwerthfawrogi fy mod i wedi cymryd rhywfaint o amser i ddarllen record y drafodaeth gawsom ni y prynhawn hwnnw, ac rwy'n bennaf wedi cymryd amser i ddarllen cyfraniadau Aled Roberts, Simon Thomas a Suzy Davies. Rwyf wedi darllen beth oedd y cyfraniadau ar y pryd, ac rwy'n mawr obeithio y bydd y rheoliadau yma yn ymateb i'r drafodaeth ac i'r bleidlais a gawsom ni y llynedd. Ni fyddaf i'n fodlon, ac ni fyddai'r Llywodraeth yn cyflwyno'r rheoliadau heddiw, oni bai ein bod ni'n ffyddiog ein bod ni wedi ateb pryderon Aelodau'r Cynulliad a fynegwyd ym mis Mawrth a chyn hynny, ac ar ôl y bleidlais. Ers hynny, rydw i wedi trio trafod gydag Aelodau a chyrff gwahanol i ddeall pam y cawsan nhw eu gwrthod, ac rydw i wedi newid y rheoliadau o ganlyniad i'r trafodaethau yma. Mae'r newidiadau yr ydym ni wedi eu gwneud yn ymateb i bwyntiau yr oedd Aelodau wedi eu codi, a gobeithio bod y newidiadau yn adlewyrchu barn y Cynulliad ar y pryd a barn y Cynulliad heddiw. Mae'r newidiadau rydw i wedi eu gwneud fel a ganlyn: rydym ni wedi rhoi'r hawl i fyfyrwyr i fynegi dymuniad i gael llety cyfrwng Cymraeg; rydym wedi creu'r hawl i weld arwyddion ym mhob un adeilad prifysgol neu goleg yn y Gymraeg; rydym ni wedi creu hawl i fewnrwyd Gymraeg; ychwanegu canolfannau celfyddydol i'r safonau; ac rydym ni'n sicrhau y bydd gan fyfyrwyr hawl i diwtor personol sy'n siarad Cymraeg. Ar y pwynt olaf, mi fuaswn i'n diolch yn fawr i Sian Gwenllian ac i Blaid Cymru am y drafodaeth a gawsom ni ar y pwnc yma. Rydw i'n gwerthfawrogi'r cyfraniad mae Plaid Cymru wedi ei wneud, a Sian Gwenllian, yn ystod y drafodaethau yma. Mi fydd Aelodau yn gwybod bod y rheoliadau yma wedi cael eu trafod yn y Pwyllgor Diwylliant, y Gymraeg a Chyfathrebu rai wythnosau yn ôl. Oherwydd y newidiadau rydym ni wedi eu gwneud, ac ar sail bod trafodaethau eang wedi bod ar y rheoliadau yma, rydw i'n gofyn i Aelodau heddiw i dderbyn y rheoliadau fel maen nhw wedi cael eu newid. Wrth gwrs, rydw i hefyd yn ymrwymo i ddiwygio Mesur y Gymraeg (Cymru) 2011 yn ystod y Cynulliad hwn er mwyn sicrhau bod y drefn o osod safonau yn llai biwrocrataidd. Rwy'n awyddus i ddechrau casglu tystiolaeth a byddwn ni'n dechrau ar hynny drwy ymgysylltu â phartneriaid cyn cyhoeddi Papur Gwyn ac ymgynghori yn eang iawn dros yr haf. Mae ymgynghori a deddfu yn cymryd amser. Rwy'n awyddus ein bod ni'n dechrau'r broses mor fuan â phosibl. Rwy'n mawr obeithio fy mod i wedi ymateb i'r drafodaeth y cawsom ni ac rwy'n mawr obeithio fy mod i wedi ymateb i'r pryderon rydym ni wedi'u clywed eisoes ar y rheoliadau yma. Ar sail hynny, rwy'n cynnig bod Aelodau yn derbyn y rheoliadau y prynhawn yma. Diolch yn fawr.
