English: Minister, it is good to see so many Members of the Senedd serving as species champions and working with wildlife groups. I'm the species champion for the water vole, which I'm pleased to say is thriving on the Gwent levels, and the Gwent levels themselves help us achieve biodiversity. As you know, Minister, I'm chairing a Gwent levels working group to look at how we enhance and better protect that area, and the living levels partnership have done some really good work with communities to make sure that all the local issues are addressed. Would you agree with me that if we're going to see the sort of biodiversity we want in Wales, we do need to make sure that areas like the Gwent levels are better protected into the future?
Welsh: Weinidog, mae'n dda gweld cymaint o Aelodau o'r Senedd yn gweithio fel hyrwyddwyr rhywogaethau ac yn gweithio gyda grwpiau bywyd gwyllt. Rwy'n hyrwyddwr rhywogaeth ar gyfer llygoden y dŵr, ac rwy'n falch o ddweud ei bod yn ffynnu ar wastadeddau Gwent, ac mae gwastadeddau Gwent eu hunain yn ein helpu i gyflawni bioamrywiaeth. Fel y gwyddoch, Weinidog, rwy'n cadeirio gweithgor ar wastadeddau Gwent i edrych ar sut y gallwn wella a diogelu'r ardal honno'n well, ac mae'r bartneriaeth gwastadeddau byw wedi gwneud gwaith da iawn gyda chymunedau i sicrhau bod yr holl faterion lleol sy'n codi yn cael sylw. A fyddech yn cytuno â mi, os ydym am weld y math o fioamrywiaeth rydym yn dymuno'i gweld yng Nghymru, fod angen inni sicrhau bod ardaloedd fel gwastadeddau Gwent yn cael eu diogelu'n well yn y dyfodol?
English: Yes, I absolutely agree with you, and I think we all acknowledge that we're at a bit of a turning point, so I think we need to be different, don't we, coming out of the COVID-19 pandemic. We talk about a green recovery or a blue recovery, I think it is really important that - what you just referred to about better protection is something that we need to do. I think we need to engage society more as a whole around this as well, recognising that there is a biodiversity emergency, and I think we just need to mobilise a broader range of resources, if you like, going forward, so that we can achieve our climate goals and aims, and also our biodiversity goals and aims.
Welsh: Ydw, rwy'n cytuno'n llwyr â chi, a chredaf fod pob un ohonom yn cydnabod ein bod ar ryw fath o drobwynt, felly credaf fod angen inni fod yn wahanol, onid oes, wrth gefnu ar y pandemig COVID-19. Rydym yn sôn am adferiad gwyrdd neu adferiad glas, a chredaf ei bod yn bwysig iawn fod - mae'r hyn rydych newydd gyfeirio ato ynglŷn â gwell diogelwch yn rhywbeth y mae'n rhaid inni ei wneud. Credaf fod angen inni ymgysylltu i raddau mwy â'r gymdeithas gyfan mewn perthynas â hyn hefyd, gan gydnabod yr argyfwng bioamrywiaeth, a chredaf fod angen inni ddefnyddio ystod ehangach o adnoddau, os mynnwch, yn y dyfodol, fel y gallwn gyflawni ein nodau a'n hamcanion hinsawdd, yn ogystal â'n nodau a'n hamcanion bioamrywiaeth.
English: Welsh Government has taken a range of steps to support the entire economy, as well as making specific funding available for the rural economy. I have recently protected the budget for farmers in 2021, and I've also announced a range of schemes through the rural development programme totalling £106 million.
Welsh: Mae Llywodraeth Cymru wedi rhoi ystod o gamau ar waith i gefnogi'r economi gyfan, ynghyd â sicrhau bod cyllid penodol ar gael ar gyfer yr economi wledig. Yn ddiweddar, rwyf wedi diogelu'r gyllideb ar gyfer ffermwyr yn 2021, ac rwyf hefyd wedi cyhoeddi ystod o gynlluniau drwy'r rhaglen datblygu gwledig sy'n werth cyfanswm o £106 miliwn.
English: Thank you for that answer, Minister. One of the rural industries that is protected at the moment by being allowed to continue is commercial puppy farming, despite the fact that the public want a third-party puppy sales ban. You have said numerous times that legislation would be brought forward to ban third-party puppy sales before the end of this Senedd term, but you haven't given a clear answer as to when. Time is now running out, Minister. As you are aware, unless your proposed ban gets Royal Assent before the next Welsh Parliament election, any Bill you made to ban puppy sales and kitten sales would not be worth the paper it was written on. In this place, the average time between a Bill being laid and it actually becoming law is nine months, so even if the Bill were laid today, we don't have nine months before this Parliament is dissolved. So, Minister, I have a clear question that it should be easy to give a clear answer to: are you sure, as you have promised a number of times, that by the end of this Senedd term third-party puppy sales will be outlawed and will be punishable?
Welsh: Diolch am eich ateb, Weinidog. Un o'r diwydiannau gwledig sy'n cael eu diogelu ar hyn o bryd drwy gael caniatâd i barhau yw ffermio cŵn bach masnachol, er bod y cyhoedd yn dymuno gwahardd gwerthiannau cŵn bach gan drydydd partïon. Rydych wedi dweud sawl gwaith y byddai deddfwriaeth yn cael ei chyflwyno i wahardd gwerthiannau cŵn bach gan drydydd partïon cyn diwedd tymor y Senedd hon, ond nid ydych wedi rhoi ateb clir ynglŷn â pha bryd. Mae amser yn brin, Weinidog. Fel y gwyddoch, oni bai fod eich gwaharddiad arfaethedig yn cael Cydsyniad Brenhinol cyn etholiad nesaf Senedd Cymru, ni fyddai unrhyw Fil a wnaed gennych i wahardd gwerthiannau cŵn bach a gwerthiannau cathod bach yn werth y papur y byddai wedi'i ysgrifennu arno. Yn y lle hwn, yr amser cyfartalog rhwng gosod Bil a'r Bil hwnnw'n dod yn gyfraith yw naw mis, felly hyd yn oed pe bai'r Bil yn cael ei osod heddiw, nid oes naw mis gennym cyn i'r Senedd hon gael ei diddymu. Felly, Weinidog, mae gennyf gwestiwn clir y dylai fod yn hawdd rhoi ateb clir iddo: a ydych yn siŵr, fel rydych wedi addo sawl gwaith, y bydd gwerthiannau cŵn bach gan drydydd partïon yn cael eu gwahardd ac yn gosbadwy erbyn diwedd y tymor hwn?
English: So, as the Member says, I have assured her and other Members that this will be brought in before the end of term. My understanding is there will be a debate next month in the Senedd, and the regulations enforcement date is September of this year.
Welsh: Felly, fel y dywed yr Aelod, rwyf wedi rhoi sicrwydd iddi hi ac i Aelodau eraill y bydd hyn yn cael ei gyflwyno cyn diwedd y tymor. Fy nealltwriaeth i yw y bydd dadl yn y Senedd y mis nesaf, a'r dyddiad ar gyfer rhoi rheoliadau mewn grym yw mis Medi eleni.
English: Thank you. Unfortunately, homes have been flooded as a result of storm Christoph throughout Flintshire, with early investigations recognising four properties in Sandycroft were affected. Representatives from the local authority, Natural Resources Wales and Dŵr Cymru Welsh Water will meet again this week to understand causes and discuss if improvements can be made collaboratively.
Welsh: Diolch. Yn anffodus, mae cartrefi wedi cael eu heffeithio gan lifogydd o ganlyniad i storm Christoph ledled Sir y Fflint, gydag ymchwiliadau cynnar yn nodi bod pedwar eiddo yn Sandycroft wedi cael eu heffeithio. Bydd cynrychiolwyr o'r awdurdod lleol, Cyfoeth Naturiol Cymru a Dŵr Cymru yn cyfarfod eto yr wythnos hon i ddeall yr achosion a thrafod a ellir gwneud gwelliannau ar y cyd.
English: Minister, thank you for that answer. Now, I was recently contacted by distraught residents, asking me to come and see the impact of the recent flooding and what that has done to their daily lives in Sandycroft, Mancot and the surrounding areas. Now, I visited in clear and good conscience as their elected representative, and it was clear to me that that was the very least thing I could do. This is the second time flooding has hit the area in the last 18 months. It is clear that significant investment and attention is needed from the Welsh Government, Flintshire County Council, NRW and Welsh Water. Now, will your officials - you've said they're going to meet again, but will your officials assist in putting a meeting together with me and the residents and those stakeholders to find out what flood prevention techniques can be introduced? And finally, Minister, as we I think agree a long-term solution is needed, whilst residents are waiting for that long-term solution, will you be able to fund a pump that would provide short-term peace of mind for the residents as a matter of urgency?
Welsh: Weinidog, diolch am eich ateb. Nawr, cysylltodd preswylwyr mewn gofid mawr â mi yn ddiweddar i ofyn imi ddod i weld effaith y llifogydd diweddar a beth y mae hynny wedi'i wneud i'w bywydau bob dydd yn Sandycroft, Mancot a'r ardaloedd cyfagos. Nawr, ymwelais â phob ewyllys da fel eu cynrychiolydd etholedig, ac roedd yn amlwg i mi mai hynny oedd y peth lleiaf y gallwn ei wneud. Dyma'r eildro i lifogydd daro'r ardal yn y 18 mis diwethaf. Mae'n amlwg fod angen sylw a buddsoddiad sylweddol gan Lywodraeth Cymru, Cyngor Sir y Fflint, CNC a Dŵr Cymru. Nawr, a wnaiff eich swyddogion - rydych wedi dweud y byddant yn cyfarfod eto, ond a wnaiff eich swyddogion gynorthwyo i drefnu cyfarfod gyda mi a'r preswylwyr a'r rhanddeiliaid hynny i ganfod pa dechnegau atal llifogydd y gellir eu cyflwyno? Ac yn olaf, Weinidog, gan y credaf fod angen ateb hirdymor, tra bo'r preswylwyr yn aros am yr ateb hirdymor hwnnw, a fyddwch yn gallu ariannu pwmp a fyddai'n rhoi tawelwch meddwl dros dro i'r preswylwyr fel mater o frys?
English: So, you will have heard me say in my earlier answer to Darren Millar that there is funding available. We've put significant funding already - over £350 million - into our flooding schemes over this term of the Government, and there is further funding available. What is important is that you have the right measures in place. So, clearly, whatever comes out of the investigation into why the homes were flooded, and I'm sure your constituents welcomed and appreciated your visit, we can then take forward whether a scheme is required - a different scheme is required. We've also made funding available for individual homes to have flood resilience measures, so, things like floodgates. Again, the funding has gone from Welsh Government direct to local authorities, because I think that's important, that the right measures are put there. So, if you gave the funding direct to residents, they may buy something that's not actually going to protect their home any further than it is. I certainly would be very happy to meet with you. I recently met with colleagues Mick Antoniw and Jane Hutt, who've both, unfortunately, had flooding in their constituencies, and brought all the partners together - not necessarily with the residents, but with the partners, to have those initial discussions. And it might be worth while doing that with me and my officials and the local authority and NRW and Dŵr Cymru to have a look at some initial findings from the investigations and then maybe later on have a further conversation with residents.
Welsh: Felly, byddwch wedi fy nghlywed yn dweud yn fy ateb cynharach i Darren Millar fod cyllid ar gael. Rydym eisoes wedi darparu cryn dipyn o gyllid - dros £350 miliwn - i'n cynlluniau llifogydd dros dymor y Llywodraeth hon, ac mae cyllid pellach ar gael. Yr hyn sy'n bwysig yw bod gennych y mesurau cywir ar waith. Felly, yn amlwg, ni waeth beth a ddaw o'r ymchwiliad i'r rhesymau pam y bu llifogydd yn y cartrefi, ac rwy'n siŵr fod eich etholwyr wedi croesawu a gwerthfawrogi eich ymweliad, gallwn fwrw ymlaen wedyn i weld a oes angen cynllun - a oes angen cynllun gwahanol. Rydym hefyd wedi darparu cyllid fel y gall cartrefi unigol gael mesurau gwrthsefyll llifogydd, felly, pethau fel gatiau llifogydd. Unwaith eto, mae'r cyllid wedi mynd gan Lywodraeth Cymru yn uniongyrchol i awdurdodau lleol, gan y credaf fod hynny'n bwysig, fod y mesurau cywir yn cael eu rhoi ar waith. Felly, pe baech yn rhoi'r cyllid yn uniongyrchol i breswylwyr, efallai y byddent yn prynu rhywbeth nad yw'n mynd i ddarparu diogelwch pellach i'w cartref mewn gwirionedd. Yn sicr, byddwn yn fwy na pharod i gyfarfod â chi. Cyfarfûm yn ddiweddar â fy nghyd-Aelodau, Mick Antoniw a Jane Hutt, sydd ill dau, yn anffodus, wedi cael llifogydd yn eu hetholaethau, a daethom â'r holl bartneriaid ynghyd - nid o reidrwydd gyda'r preswylwyr, ond gyda'r partneriaid, i gael y trafodaethau cychwynnol hynny. Ac efallai y byddai'n werth gwneud hynny gyda mi a fy swyddogion a'r awdurdod lleol ac CNC a Dŵr Cymru i gael golwg ar rai o ganfyddiadau cychwynnol yr ymchwiliadau a chael sgwrs bellach gyda thrigolion yn nes ymlaen efallai.
English: People in Sandycroft, Mancot and Pentre launched a petition after storm Christoph caused serious flooding, ruining their homes for the second time in 18 months, causing heartache and devastation. The petition states that the 'drainage systems & ditches are poorly maintained and not fit for purpose, because of this people are suffering disastrous consequences & flooding in to their homes. Flintshire County Council need to act now' to address this. I was also contacted after properties in Broughton were badly affected, with people asking whether flooding would have been reduced if the ditch opposite their properties was widened or deepened by the council. Flooding also closed the roads between Ffynnongroyw and Talacre, Ffordd Llanfynydd between Treuddyn and Llanfynydd, and the A541 Wrexham to Mold road at Pontblyddyn. What wider engagement is the Welsh Government therefore having with Flintshire council to agree the avoidable causes of this county-wide flooding and ensure that preventative, and therefore cost-effective, measures are put in place for the future?
Welsh: Lansiodd pobl yn Sandycroft, Mancot a Pentre ddeiseb ar ôl i storm Christoph achosi llifogydd difrifol a wnaeth ddifetha eu cartrefi am yr eildro mewn 18 mis, gan achosi poen a difrod. Mae'r ddeiseb yn nodi [nad] yw'r systemau draenio a'r ffosydd yn cael eu cynnal a'u cadw'n ddigon da ac nid ydynt yn addas at y diben, ac oherwydd hyn, mae pobl yn dioddef canlyniadau trychinebus a llifogydd yn eu cartrefi. Mae angen i Gyngor Sir y Fflint gymryd camau ar unwaith i fynd i'r afael â hyn. Cysylltwyd â mi hefyd ar ôl i eiddo ym Mrychdyn gael eu heffeithio'n wael, gyda phobl yn gofyn a fyddai'r llifogydd wedi bod yn llai pe bai'r ffos gyferbyn â'u heiddo wedi cael ei lledu neu ei dyfnhau gan y cyngor. Hefyd, caeodd llifogydd y ffyrdd rhwng Ffynnongroyw a Thalacre, Ffordd Llanfynydd rhwng Treuddyn a Llanfynydd, a ffordd yr A541 rhwng Wrecsam a'r Wyddgrug ym Mhontblyddyn. Pa waith ymgysylltu ehangach y mae Llywodraeth Cymru yn ei wneud, felly, gyda chyngor Sir y Fflint i gytuno ar achosion y llifogydd hyn ledled y sir, sy'n achosion y gellir eu hosgoi, a sicrhau bod mesurau ataliol, a chosteffeithiol felly, yn cael eu rhoi ar waith ar gyfer y dyfodol?
English: Thank you. The seafood sector is experiencing an immediate and detrimental impact since leaving the European Union, with export issues affecting the whole supply chain. I continue to press the UK Government to resolve these issues and appropriately compensate the whole industry. In addition, it is essential that Welsh fishers receive their fair share of the modest additional quota delivered by the trade and co-operation agreement.
Welsh: Diolch. Mae'r sector bwyd môr yn dioddef effaith niweidiol ac uniongyrchol ers gadael yr Undeb Ewropeaidd, gyda phroblemau allforio'n effeithio ar y gadwyn gyflenwi gyfan. Rwy'n parhau i bwyso ar Lywodraeth y DU i ddatrys y materion hyn a digolledu'r diwydiant cyfan yn briodol. Yn ogystal, mae'n hanfodol fod pysgotwyr Cymru yn derbyn eu cyfran deg o'r cwota ychwanegol bach a ddarperir gan y cytundeb masnach a chydweithredu.
English: Thank you for that answer, Minister. The seafood sector is an important part of the Welsh economy, employing many people and contributing significantly to our exports. The industry made very clear, prior to the end of the transition period, that there was a lack of preparation and that the industry would suffer if those preparations were not put in hand, and also called, I think, and supported the extension of the transition period to ensure that that sector was not impacted in that way. There's really been gross negligence from the UK Government in this, which is now hitting our sector greatly in two areas, it seems, Minister: (1) is exporting generally, but secondly is the export in respect of produce that is available for consumption, and that issue around that. Can I ask specifically what contacts you have with the Welsh seafood industry? What efforts are being made jointly to try and get the UK Government not only to resolve this particular problem, but also, as you say, to ensure the Welsh seafood industry is properly compensated for the UK Government's failure?
Welsh: Diolch am eich ateb, Weinidog. Mae'r sector bwyd môr yn rhan bwysig o economi Cymru, gan ei fod yn cyflogi llawer o bobl ac yn cyfrannu'n sylweddol at ein hallforion. Fe'i gwnaed yn glir iawn gan y diwydiant, cyn diwedd y cyfnod pontio, fod diffyg paratoi wedi bod ac y byddai'r diwydiant yn dioddef pe na bai'r paratoadau hynny'n cael eu gwneud, a gwnaethant gefnogi, a galw hefyd rwy'n meddwl, am ymestyn y cyfnod pontio i sicrhau nad oedd y sector hwnnw'n cael ei effeithio yn y ffordd honno. Gwelwyd esgeulustod dybryd gan Lywodraeth y DU yn hyn, ac mae bellach yn taro ein sector yn galed mewn dau faes, yn ôl pob golwg, Weinidog: (1) yw allforio yn gyffredinol, ond yr ail yw allforio mewn perthynas â chynnyrch sydd ar gael i'w fwyta a'i yfed, a'r broblem mewn perthynas â hynny. A gaf fi ofyn yn benodol pa gysylltiadau sydd gennych gyda diwydiant bwyd môr Cymru? Pa ymdrechion a wneir ar y cyd i geisio sicrhau bod Llywodraeth y DU nid yn unig yn datrys y broblem benodol hon, ond hefyd, fel y dywedwch, i wneud yn siŵr fod diwydiant bwyd môr Cymru yn cael ei ddigolledu'n iawn am fethiant Llywodraeth y DU?
English: In the waters around Anglesey and the Menai straits, we produce mussels and oysters of the very, very highest quality. Almost all our mussels - the vast majority - are exported to the European Union. I was speaking to a representative of the mussel industry today. There is desperate concern about the impact that we are now seeing of the failure to prepare properly for EU exit, and everything possible needs to be done to ensure that conditions are made as advantageous as possible for our fishermen to be able to see a brighter way forward. So, could the Minister, as one response, confirm if she will ask the Food Standards Agency in Wales to commit to review the approach it takes towards the classification of shellfish waters, to bring this more in line with that taken by Food Standards Scotland, which would at least be a start?
Welsh: Yn y dyfroedd o amgylch Ynys Môn ac afon Menai, rydym yn cynhyrchu cregyn gleision ac wystrys o'r ansawdd uchaf. Mae pob un o'n cregyn gleision, bron â bod - y rhan fwyaf o gryn dipyn - yn cael eu hallforio i'r Undeb Ewropeaidd. Bûm yn siarad ag un o gynrychiolwyr y diwydiant cregyn gleision heddiw. Rydym yn gweld cryn bryder yn awr ynghylch effaith y methiant i baratoi'n briodol ar gyfer ymadael â'r UE, ac mae angen gwneud popeth posibl i sicrhau y gwneir yr amodau mor fanteisiol â phosibl i'n pysgotwyr fel y gallant weld dyfodol mwy disglair. Felly, a allai'r Gweinidog, fel un ymateb, gadarnhau a fydd yn gofyn i'r Asiantaeth Safonau Bwyd yng Nghymru ymrwymo i adolygu ei dull o ddosbarthu dyfroedd pysgod cregyn, er mwyn sicrhau bod hynny'n cyd-fynd yn well â'r hyn a wneir gan Food Standards Scotland, a fyddai'n ddechrau, o leiaf?
English: Well, you heard me outline in my answer to Mick Antoniw the steps that I have taken. I certainly will look at anything I can do to help. I met with the seafood sector, as I said, on Monday this week, and, clearly, there are serious implications for the mussel industry and the cockles industry. I do want to work towards a resolution as quickly as possible, so I will continue to do all I can. I'm very happy to look at what can be done with the Food Standards Agency and if the measures he outlines would indeed help. I think a lot of these problems - . We've been warning the UK Government for four years - five years, nearly - that this lack of preparation would have this significant impact, and it's no pleasure to say, 'We told you so'. We knew it would be the seafood sector that would be impacted the quickest, if you like, because of the disruption that we've seen. Also, whilst we had a thin deal, which I think we all welcomed on Christmas Eve, rather than no deal, I did think it would be something to build upon, but that doesn't seem to be happening in relation to the seafood sector. So, as I say, I have written to the Secretary of State again this morning. I met with him twice, I think, last week around this issue. I've asked for a further meeting, because, clearly, the live bivalve molluscs issue is very serious, and becoming more serious by the day.
Welsh: Wel, clywsoch fy ateb i Mick Antoniw pan amlinellais y camau rwyf wedi'u rhoi ar waith. Yn sicr, byddaf yn edrych ar unrhyw beth y gallaf ei wneud i fod o gymorth. Cyfarfûm â'r sector bwyd môr, fel y dywedais, ddydd Llun yr wythnos hon, ac yn amlwg, mae goblygiadau difrifol i'r diwydiant cregyn gleision a'r diwydiant cocos. Hoffwn weithio tuag at ateb cyn gynted â phosibl, felly byddaf yn parhau i wneud popeth y gallaf. Rwy'n fwy na pharod i edrych ar yr hyn y gellir ei wneud gyda'r Asiantaeth Safonau Bwyd ac i weld a fyddai'r mesurau a amlinellwyd ganddo o gymorth. Credaf fod llawer o'r problemau hyn - . Rydym wedi bod yn rhybuddio Llywodraeth y DU ers pedair blynedd - pum mlynedd, bron - y byddai'r diffyg paratoi hwn yn cael yr effaith fawr hon, ac nid yw'n bleser dweud, 'Fe ddywedom ni hyn wrthych chi'. Roeddem yn gwybod mai'r sector bwyd môr a fyddai'n cael ei effeithio gyflymaf, os mynnwch, oherwydd y tarfu rydym wedi'i weld. Hefyd, er inni gael cytundeb tenau, a gafodd ei groesawu gan bob un ohonom, rwy'n credu, ar Noswyl Nadolig, yn hytrach na dim cytundeb, roeddwn yn meddwl y byddai'n rhywbeth i adeiladu arno, ond nid yw'n ymddangos bod hynny'n digwydd mewn perthynas â'r sector bwyd môr. Felly, fel y dywedaf, rwyf wedi ysgrifennu at yr Ysgrifennydd Gwladol eto y bore yma. Cyfarfûm ag ef ddwywaith, rwy'n credu, yr wythnos diwethaf ynglŷn â'r mater hwn. Rwyf wedi gofyn am gyfarfod pellach, oherwydd yn amlwg, mae mater y molysgiaid dwygragennog byw yn ddifrifol iawn, ac yn tyfu'n fwy difrifol bob dydd.
English: Thank you. Tackling the drivers for insect decline is central to our policies for increasing biodiversity. This includes introducing the agricultural pollution regulations and the clean air Bill White Paper. Both are vital measures that will deliver benefits for insects. The action plan for pollinators sets out further priorities for enhancing pollinator numbers.
Welsh: Diolch. Mae mynd i'r afael ag achosion dirywiad pryfed yn ganolog i'n polisïau ar gyfer cynyddu bioamrywiaeth. Mae hyn yn cynnwys cyflwyno'r rheoliadau llygredd amaethyddol a'r Papur Gwyn ar Fil aer glân. Mae'r ddau'n fesurau hanfodol a fydd yn sicrhau manteision i bryfed. Mae'r cynllun gweithredu ar gyfer pryfed peillio'n nodi blaenoriaethau pellach ar gyfer cynyddu nifer y pryfed peillio.
