English: Thank you to colleagues for their contributions. I'm grateful to Llyr Gruffydd's recognition that this amendment 2 is tabled specifically to address the concerns that he raised at Stage 2 of the passing of the Bill, which I think is a pragmatic response to concerns that he and I know other colleagues have raised. So, I've been pleased to table this amendment this afternoon. But I reiterate this point that this is still the maximum period reflected in the amendment and that Ministers can still choose to make the extension period shorter if they choose to do so. As I highlighted earlier, I just want to thank Members for their constructive approach to discussions on this Bill. As we can see here today, I've been willing to try and take the opposition amendments on board and consult Members on the wording of some of our key Government amendments, and, as I said, the result of that work that we have done together now has really changed the Bill in a positive way, and I think that it is further improved as a result of the votes that are being held here this afternoon. The amendments, I think, around the review process, and the sunset clause particularly, show that the Bill is now very different to the one that first entered the Senedd. I'm still very much of that view that I want to develop the architecture that can guide the long-term changes to tax legislation here in Wales. Looking ahead to Stage 4, I think that if this legislation were to fail, it would mean that, for the next few years, the Welsh Ministers, and potentially our taxpayers too, would be left in a very vulnerable position where we might not be able to respond effectively to tax policy changes made by the UK Government that impact on our Welsh taxes and consequently on our revenues and our public services here in Wales. And just to provide an example, in the event that the UK Government introduced a new charging regime, similar to the stamp duty land tax higher rates for additional dwellings, such as second homes, we could find ourselves in a situation where we are significantly out of pocket in Wales. Or if there was a UK Government change that particularly benefited, for example, those seeking to establish new farming businesses where we wished to bring in similar types of changes at pace to ensure that our taxpayers aren't disadvantaged, we could find ourselves unable to do that as well. But I just want to highlight my keenness to continue to work with colleagues across the Senedd on that longer term architecture. I want to be able to tell taxpayers that we took the chance when we had it to protect them and to protect Welsh revenues, but while we're working on that important longer term architecture, and this is the opportunity for us to do that as we go along what's an important journey ahead of us.
Welsh: Diolch i fy nghyd-Aelodau am eu cyfraniadau. Rwy'n ddiolchgar am gydnabyddiaeth Llyr Gruffydd fod y gwelliant 2 hwn yn cael ei gyflwyno'n benodol i fynd i'r afael â'r pryderon a gododd yng Nghyfnod 2 wrth basio'r Bil, sydd, yn fy marn i, yn ymateb pragmatig i bryderon y mae ef a minnau'n gwybod y mae cyd-Aelodau eraill wedi eu codi. Felly, rwyf wedi bod yn falch o gyflwyno'r gwelliant hwn y prynhawn yma. Ond ailadroddaf y pwynt hwn mai dyma'r cyfnod hiraf o hyd a adlewyrchir yn y gwelliant ac y gall Gweinidogion barhau i ddewis gwneud y cyfnod ymestyn yn fyrrach os ydyn nhw'n dewis gwneud hynny. Fel y dywedais yn gynharach, hoffwn ddiolch i'r Aelodau am eu hagwedd adeiladol at drafodaethau ar y Bil hwn. Fel y gallwn weld yma heddiw, rwyf wedi bod yn barod i geisio ystyried gwelliannau'r gwrthbleidiau ac ymgynghori ag Aelodau ar eiriad rhai o'n gwelliannau allweddol yn y Llywodraeth, ac, fel y dywedais i, mae canlyniad y gwaith hwnnw yr ydym wedi ei wneud gyda'n gilydd wedi newid y Bil yn wirioneddol mewn ffordd gadarnhaol bellach, ac rwy'n credu ei fod yn cael ei wella eto o ganlyniad i'r pleidleisiau sy'n cael eu cynnal yma prynhawn yma. Mae'r gwelliannau, rwy'n credu, ynghylch y broses adolygu, a'r cymal machlud yn arbennig, yn dangos bod y Bil bellach yn wahanol iawn i'r un a ddaeth i mewn i'r Senedd yn gyntaf. Rwy'n dal i fod o'r farn fy mod i'n dymuno datblygu'r bensaernïaeth a all lywio'r newidiadau hirdymor i ddeddfwriaeth treth yma yng Nghymru. Gan edrych ymlaen at Gyfnod 4, rwy'n credu pe bai'r ddeddfwriaeth hon yn methu, y byddai'n golygu, dros yr ychydig flynyddoedd nesaf, y byddai Gweinidogion Cymru, ac o bosibl ein trethdalwyr hefyd, yn cael eu gadael mewn sefyllfa fregus iawn lle na fyddem efallai'n gallu ymateb yn effeithiol i newidiadau polisi treth a wnaed gan Lywodraeth y DU sy'n effeithio ar ein trethi ni yng Nghymru ac, o ganlyniad, ar ein refeniw a'n gwasanaethau cyhoeddus yma yng Nghymru. Ac i roi enghraifft, pe bai Llywodraeth y DU yn cyflwyno cyfundrefn codi tâl newydd, yn debyg i gyfraddau treth tir y dreth stamp uwch ar gyfer anheddau ychwanegol, fel ail gartrefi, gallem ni gael ein hunain mewn sefyllfa lle'r ydym ar ein colled yn sylweddol yng Nghymru. Neu pe bai newid gan Lywodraeth y DU a fyddai o fudd arbennig, er enghraifft, i'r rhai sy'n ceisio sefydlu busnesau ffermio newydd a'n bod ni'n dymuno cyflwyno mathau tebyg o newidiadau ar fyrder i sicrhau na fyddai ein trethdalwyr ni o dan anfantais, gallem ni ein cael ein hunain yn methu â gwneud hynny hefyd. Ond hoffwn dynnu sylw at fy awydd i barhau i weithio gyda chyd-Aelodau ar draws y Senedd ar y bensaernïaeth tymor hirach honno. Rwyf eisiau gallu dweud wrth drethdalwyr ein bod ni wedi manteisio ar y cyfle pan oedd gennym ni i'w diogelu nhw ac i ddiogelu cyllid Cymru, ond tra ein bod yn gweithio ar y bensaernïaeth tymor hirach bwysig honno, a dyma'r cyfle i ni wneud hynny wrth i ni fynd ar yr hyn sy'n daith bwysig o'n blaenau.
