English: Both of these amendments would insert a definition of the 'accessibility of Welsh law' into section 1 of the Bill. This reflects the committee's desire, of course, to have a clear explanation of the meaning of the concept. 'Accessibility' means how easy it is for people to know what the law contains, but there are many different aspects to this. It includes the quality of the law itself and also specifically whether it clearly notes what that law does. It can also include the navigability of Welsh law that's relevant to people, as Dai Lloyd mentioned in his opening remarks, and that relates to the way we ensure that the text of the law is available and provide other explanatory material for people who need to make use of the law. The Bill doesn't define the word 'accessibility' on the basis that the general perception of accessibility is easily understood, and trying to provide a comprehensive explanation of all of the elements of accessibility could be difficult and could restrict us. The Law Commission and the Swansea Law Clinic supported that view, but, of course, others have suggested that more explanation could be included in the Bill. So, in the context of Dai Lloyd's amendment, I don't oppose including in the Bill a provision that gives some examples of those things that will be included in the phrase 'accessibility of Welsh law'. The issues listed in amendment 19 are all things that we have mentioned and are aspects of accessibility, so it's not difficult to provide examples within the Bill. However, I would like to give further consideration to the specific drafting of this, and therefore I would propose that we could work with Dai Lloyd on an amendment that is similar to amendment 19 and to bring that back at Stage 3.
Welsh: Byddai'r ddau welliant yn mewnosod diffiniad o 'hygyrchedd cyfraith Cymru' yn adran 1 o'r Bil. Mae hyn yn adlewyrchu awydd y pwyllgor, wrth gwrs, i gael esboniad clir o ystyr y cysyniad. Mae 'hygyrchedd' yn golygu pa mor hawdd yw hi i bobl gael gwybod beth yw'r gyfraith. Ond mae nifer o agweddau gwahanol i hyn. Mae'n cynnwys ansawdd y gyfraith ei hun, ac, yn benodol, a yw'n nodi'n glir beth y mae'n ei wneud. Mae hefyd yn gallu cynnwys pa mor rhwydd y gall pobl gael gafael ar y gyfraith sy'n berthnasol iddynt, fel gwnaeth Dai Lloyd gyfeirio yn ei sylwadau agoriadol, ac mae hynny'n ymwneud â'r ffordd rŷn ni'n sicrhau bod testun y gyfraith ar gael ac yn darparu deunydd arall sy'n esbonio'r gyfraith i bobl sydd angen ei defnyddio hi. Dyw'r Bil ddim yn diffinio 'hygyrchedd' ar y sail bod y cysyniad cyffredinol o hygyrchedd yn hawdd ei ddeall, ac y byddai ceisio rhoi diffiniad cynhwysfawr o elfennau hygyrchedd yn anodd ac efallai'n gallu cyfyngu. Roedd Comisiwn y Gyfraith a Chlinig Cyfraith Abertawe yn cefnogi'r safbwynt hwn, ond, wrth gwrs, mae eraill wedi awgrymu y gellid rhoi mwy o esboniad yn y Bil. Felly, yng nghyd-destun gwelliannau Dai Lloyd, dwi ddim yn gwrthwynebu cynnwys yn y Bil ddarpariaeth sy'n rhoi enghreifftiau o'r pethau sy'n cael eu cynnwys yn yr ymadrodd 'hygyrchedd cyfraith Cymru'. Mae'r materion sydd yn cael eu rhestru yng ngwelliant 19 i gyd yn bethau rŷn ni wedi'u dweud, sef agweddau ar hygyrchedd, felly dyw e ddim yn anodd rhoi enghreifftiau yn y Bil. Fodd bynnag, hoffwn i roi ystyriaeth bellach i'r drafftio penodol. Ac felly, hoffwn i gynnig cydweithio â Dai Lloyd ar welliant sy'n debyg i welliant 19 a dod a hwnnw'n ôl yng Nghyfnod 3.
