English: Could I raise two matters with you, leader of the house? The first is: could we have a statement from the Cabinet Secretary for local government on the obligation that he believes local authorities have to maintain council roads? It seems, across the whole of the south Wales region, councils seem to have given up filling in potholes and maintaining the surfaces of the public highway. And the amount of constituents I have raising this issue - and I can see certain Members sniggering at this, but, actually, for most Members it's quite an important issue, and for a lot of constituents, who suffer the blight of potholes and dangerous surfaces, it's most probably one of their biggest priorities when they come to see their elected Members. I'd be grateful - where there is an obligation placed on the local authority to maintain those surfaces, what is the expectation of the Welsh Government in them fulfilling that obligation, and, indeed, when the Minister makes money available to local authorities, does he make sure - and categorically make sure - to those local authorities that they have a duty to maintain the fabric of the highway in their respective areas? The second point I'd like to make is to add voice to the concerns already raised about the bovine TB strategy - and I do declare an interest as a livestock farmer - that the Welsh Government do have. Yes, there are many controls in place at the moment, but one of the central planks of the strategy was the vaccination policy - and we can argue the merits of that strategy, but, obviously, that was what was put in place by the previous Government, and I presume it is the policy of the current Government to maintain that - and it is a fact that the vaccine supply has ceased to come forward now. So, one of the central planks of the Government's strategy to eradicate bovine TB here in Wales has been removed, and it is critical for livestock farmers to understand exactly how the new Government will come forward with a comprehensive strategy that is joined-up and isn't just mere window-dressing. Ultimately, in many parts of Wales, this terrible disease is driving many businesses out of existence by the excessive costs that they have to face and the emotional trauma that they go through when the blight of bovine TB visits that particular business.
Welsh: A gaf i godi dau fater gyda chi, arweinydd y tŷ? Yn gyntaf: a fyddai modd i ni gael datganiad gan Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet dros lywodraeth leol ar y rhwymedigaeth sydd gan awdurdodau lleol, yn ei dyb ef, i gynnal a chadw ffyrdd cyngor? Ymddengys, ar hyd a lled rhanbarth de Cymru, bod cynghorau wedi rhoi'r gorau i lenwi tyllau yn y ffyrdd a chynnal arwynebau y briffordd gyhoeddus. Ac mae'r nifer o etholwyr sy'n sôn am y broblem hon i mi - a gallaf weld Aelodau penodol yn piffian chwerthin ar hyn, ond, mewn gwirionedd, mae'n fater eithaf pwysig i'r rhan fwyaf o Aelodau, ac i lawer o etholwyr, sy'n dioddef melltith y ceudyllau a'r arwynebau peryglus, mae'n debygol mai dyna un o'u blaenoriaethau pwysicaf wrth ddod i weld eu Haelodau etholedig. Byddwn i'n ddiolchgar - pan fo rhwymedigaeth ar yr awdurdod lleol i gynnal yr arwynebau hynny, beth yw disgwyliad Llywodraeth Cymru o ran cyflawni'r rhwymedigaeth honno, ac, yn wir, pan fydd y Gweinidog yn neilltuo arian i awdurdodau lleol, a yw'n sicrhau - ac yn sicrhau yn bendant - bod yr awdurdodau lleol hynny yn gwybod bod dyletswydd arnynt i gynnal ffabrig y briffordd yn eu hardaloedd? Yr ail bwynt yr hoffwn ei wneud yw ychwanegu llais at y pryderon a godwyd eisoes ynglŷn â'r strategaeth TB buchol - ac rwyf yn datgan buddiant fel ffermwr da byw - sydd gan Lywodraeth Cymru. Oes, mae llawer o reolaethau sydd ar waith ar hyn o bryd, ond un o elfennau canolog y strategaeth oedd y polisi brechu - a gallwn ddadlau rhinweddau'r strategaeth honno, ond, yn amlwg, dyna a roddwyd ar waith gan y Llywodraeth flaenorol, ac rwyf yn cymryd mai polisi'r Llywodraeth bresennol yw cynnal hynny - ac mae'n ffaith nad yw cyflenwad y brechlyn ar gael bellach. Felly, mae un o elfennau canolog strategaeth y Llywodraeth i ddileu TB buchol yng Nghymru wedi ei dileu, ac mae'n hanfodol i ffermwyr da byw ddeall yn union sut y bydd y Llywodraeth newydd yn cyflwyno strategaeth gynhwysfawr sydd yn gydgysylltiedig yn hytrach na dim ond edrych yn dda. Yn y pen draw, mewn sawl rhan o Gymru, mae'r clefyd ofnadwy hwn yn dirwyn llawer o fusnesau i ben oherwydd y costau eithafol y mae'n rhaid eu talu a'r trawma emosiynol pan fydd TB buchol yn effeithio ar y busnes penodol hwnnw.
