English: I thank her for drawing attention to the Robin Hood tax - the Tobin tax, as it was sometimes called - to which I have always, myself, been attracted; a very small tax on a very large number of transactions, which would result in a very significant additional inflow of funds into the UK Treasury, which could be used in exactly the circumstances that the Member outlined. She's right to say that we focused on the fuel price rises. They are not just the cap. The cap was raised by £139 only last October. It could be raised by £500 in April. It's not only that and the £100 that every family will have to pay to deal with the market failure that the Conservative Government presided over, but if you were on a fixed-price tariff with one of those firms that has collapsed, you won't be on a fixed-price tariff with the company that's taken you on. You will now be exposed to the rise in the cap as well. That's why Jane Dodds is right to point to the fact that £500 is by no means the maximum that many families in Wales will be exposed to. And, it's not just the national insurance hike. Again, as Jane Dodds says, it is the effect of freezing income tax thresholds for the next four years, which will drag more and more families into the tax net at the very bottom end of the spectrum and draw people up the hierarchy of tax rates as they find that their income rises but the tax threshold stays the same. These are tax rises by stealth and they will hit families here in Wales. So, imaginative ideas such as the Robin Hood tax and such as the windfall tax, which Joyce Watson mentioned, these are choices available to the UK Government and they should exercise them.
Welsh: Diolch iddi am dynnu sylw at y dreth Robin Hood - y dreth Tobin, fel yr oedd yn cael ei galw weithiau - rwyf i bob amser, fy hunan, wedi cael fy nenu ati; treth fach iawn ar nifer fawr iawn o drafodiadau, a fyddai'n arwain at lif ychwanegol sylweddol iawn o arian i mewn i Drysorlys y DU, y gellid ei ddefnyddio o dan yr union amgylchiadau a amlinellwyd gan yr Aelod. Mae'n iawn iddi ddweud ein bod wedi canolbwyntio ar y cynnydd mewn prisiau tanwydd. Nid dim ond y cap ydyn nhw. Cynyddwyd y cap £139 dim ond fis Hydref diwethaf. Gellid ei godi £500 ym mis Ebrill. Nid yn unig hynny a'r £100 y bydd yn rhaid i bob teulu ei dalu i ymdrin â methiant y farchnad y gwnaeth y Llywodraeth Geidwadol lywyddu drosto, ond pe baech ar dariff pris sefydlog gydag un o'r cwmnïau hynny sydd wedi methu, ni fyddwch ar dariff pris sefydlog gyda'r cwmni sydd wedi eich derbyn. Byddwch chi yn awr yn agored i'r cynnydd yn y cap hefyd. Dyna pam mae Jane Dodds yn iawn i dynnu sylw at y ffaith nad £500 yw'r uchafswm y bydd llawer o deuluoedd yng Nghymru yn agored iddo o bell ffordd. Ac, nid dim ond y cynnydd mewn yswiriant gwladol. Unwaith eto, fel y dywed Jane Dodds, effaith rhewi trothwyon treth incwm am y pedair blynedd nesaf, a fydd yn llusgo mwy a mwy o deuluoedd i'r rhwyd dreth ar ben isaf y sbectrwm ac yn tynnu pobl i fyny'r hierarchaeth o gyfraddau treth wrth iddyn nhw ganfod bod eu hincwm yn cynyddu ond bod y trothwy treth yn aros yr un fath. Mae'r rhain yn godiadau treth llechwraidd a byddan nhw'n effeithio ar deuluoedd yma yng Nghymru. Felly, mae syniadau dychmygus fel y dreth Robin Hood ac fel y dreth ffawdelw, y soniodd Joyce Watson amdani, yn ddewisiadau sydd ar gael i Lywodraeth y DU a dylen nhw eu harfer.
