English: May I respond? I accept that these standards are detailed and can work, but I think that the commissioner has decided to work in a far too bureaucratic manner, and there are weaknesses too. There are very detailed standards if you want such and such a form in Welsh - if you're made redundant and so on - but there is one standard that requires local authorities to measure and report in five years on the growth of the Welsh language in their areas. There's a standard that does require that. Now, of course, that standard should be very detailed like the others: which areas, with whom, what compulsion there is for the Welsh language. Now, there are no linguistic experts within the majority of the local authorities - 22 of them. Perhaps one or two local authorities can do that work, but I know of some authorities where they tried to find out how many branches of Merched y Wawr there are within their areas, and things like that, which is very far removed from what's needed in terms of language development in those areas. So, an external body that has the ability and the expertise to pursue that particular area and to give direction to local authorities - . And I think we're missing a trick in that regard now - that we're asking local authorities to do that work. They do the things that are possible to do administratively, but there is no thought given to the bigger picture and what the genuine implications are of language revival in their areas. And you do have to get expertise in on that, and that's what could come through an external body, which could not only promote, but advise and speak to and develop this area.
Welsh: A gaf i ddod yn ôl, efallai? Rydw i'n derbyn bod y safonau yn fanwl ac yn gallu gweithio, ond rydw i'n credu bod y comisiynydd wedi penderfynu gweithio mewn ffordd lawer, lawer rhy fiwrocrataidd arnyn nhw. Ond mae yna wendidau hefyd. Mae yna safonau manwl iawn os ŷch chi eisiau cael ffurflen hwn a'r llall yn y Gymraeg - os ŷch chi'n cael eich diswyddo - ond mae yna un safon yn gofyn i awdurdodau lleol fesur ac adrodd mewn pum mlynedd ar dwf y Gymraeg yn eu hardaloedd nhw. Mae yna un safon yn gofyn am hynny. Nawr, dylai'r safon yna fod yn gwbl, gwbl fanwl fel y lleill: ym mha feysydd, ble, sut, gyda phwy, pa orfodaeth sydd i'r Gymraeg. Nawr, nid oes arbenigwyr iaith gan y rhan fwyaf o awdurdodau lleol - 22 ohonyn nhw. Efallai bod un neu ddau awdurdod yn gallu gwneud hynny, ond rydw i'n gwybod am rai awdurdodau lle maen nhw'n trio ffeindio mas faint o ganghennau o Ferched y Wawr sydd ar gael, a rhyw bethau felly, sy'n bell iawn, iawn o'r hyn sydd ei angen mewn datblygu iaith mewn ardaloedd. Felly, byddai corff allanol â'r gallu a'r meddwl a'r arbenigedd i fynd ar ôl y maes yna a rhoi arweiniad i awdurdodau lleol - . Ac rydw i'n credu ein bod ni, ar hyn o bryd, yn colli tric mawr yn hynny - ein bod ni'n gofyn i awdurdodau lleol wneud hyn a'r llall. Maen nhw'n gwneud y pethau sy'n bosibl i'w gwneud yn weinyddol, ond nid oes dim meddwl yn mynd y tu ôl y cyfan a beth yw gwir oblygiadau adfywio iaith yn eu hardaloedd nhw. Ac mae'n rhaid i chi gael arbenigwyr i wneud hynny, a dyna fyddai'n gallu dod drwy gorff allanol, a fyddai'n gallu nid yn unig hyrwyddo, ond cynghori a siarad a datblygu'r maes.
