English: As a Member of this National Assembly, and being frequently on the receiving end of Government strategy documents - and they do come thick and fast - you're often oscillating between a state of confusion and a state of despair. I have to say, having speed-read this document this afternoon, I feel a mixture of both. Confusion because I think I was under the misapprehension that this was going to be the date of the publication of the new economic strategy. I'm not the only one, because I notice Lee Waters tweeted yesterday: 'Ahead of tomorrow's launch of a new WG economic strategy I've set out some thoughts in today's Western Mail', and a very good article it was, too. And here we come to the despair, because there were better, more interesting, more original ideas in that single-page article than there are in this document. What, actually, we've got here - . Remember that we were - [Interruption.] And if I was there, I'm sure the same would be true of Hefin David's business briefing next week. 'Ahead of the publication of the Welsh Government economic strategy' - you need to improve your internal communication at the very least. What we've got, actually, is a kind of beefed-up version of 'Taking Wales Forward', published last year. It's kind of 'Taking Wales Forward' on steroids, really, isn't it? It's gone up from 15 pages to 27, so nobody can accuse the Welsh Government of not making progress. That's a 100 per cent increase in Welsh Government productivity. We had four cross-cutting strategies. Now we have - what is it - five cross-cutting priorities, and four key themes and three action plans. You certainly can't accuse them of not being comprehensive. I don't have the time to go after all of those, but I'd like to concentrate on one, and, seeing as we have been celebrating 20 years since 1997 and devolution, let's concentrate on the economic, because that was meant to be the big advance, the devolution dividend. As has already been referred to, really, of course the progress there has been limited. Looking at the 18 bullet points - that's all it is, if you're looking for the contours of the new economic strategy, 18 bullet points across two pages - I'm trying to understand, therefore, what that tells us about the content of the new economic strategy. Maybe the First Minister will be able to help me. The first question is: is there a real acceptance of the scale of the challenge? I think there is on the backbench on the governing side. I'm not sure there is on the frontbench. Because, as was already referred to, in 1997, where were we? Seventy-four point one per cent of GVA per capita. Where are we now in the latest figures? Seventy one per cent. We've gone backwards. We were seventh overall, by the way, in terms of the 12 standard UK economic regions. Even on the Welsh Government's favourite economic indicator, which is gross disposable household income per head, we've also gone backwards - 87.8 per cent to 85.3 per cent. So, is there an acceptance of the scale of the challenge? The First Minister, in his remarks earlier this afternoon, said that in the 1990s we were a country that young people wanted to leave. Well, actually, we saw a report over the summer from the Resolution Foundation showing that Wales has a brain drain. More graduates lost to Wales between 2016 - a net loss of over 20,000 graduates during that period. We're tenth of the 12 UK standard regions in terms of the extent of graduate loss. Secondly, are there going to be targets? We've had appallingly poor progress. How can we actually measure whether we're going to have a better record of delivery in the future? Because, as Chris Kelsey said, there are few details and few specific targets in this strategy. And where is the desire, the appetite - which I do sense, to be fair, on the Labour back benches - for radical change in terms of strategy? We've basically followed the same strategy for 40, 50 years, which is, essentially, reliant on foreign direct investment. That's it. We've ploughed that furrow. And where has it got us? Where is the appetite in these 18 bullet points for accepting that that strategy will not serve us well in the future, therefore we need radical new ideas? Finally, on the last day of term, the Cabinet Secretary said that you were going to publish this cross-cutting strategy and then there would be an extensive stakeholder engagement programme. I think that's jargon for 'talking to people'. Well, I did a little bit of talking over the weekend, because I wanted to know what was going to be in this economic strategy that didn't appear, and I spoke to some leading business people that I know and will be known to many people here; I spoke to some leading Welsh economists. Not one of them knew what was going to be in the economic strategy or in the bullet points because nobody from the Welsh Government had spoken to them. So, on what basis have you come up with these 18 bullet points? Who have you spoken to? Because I fear that what we'll get when we finally see the economic action plan is, once again, an empty vessel with no substance.
Welsh: Fel Aelod o'r Cynulliad Cenedlaethol hwn, sy'n aml yn derbyn dogfennau strategaeth y Llywodraeth - ac maen nhw'n dod yn aml iawn - byddwch yn aml yn pendilio rhwng cyflwr o ddryswch a chyflwr o anobaith. Mae'n rhaid i mi ddweud, ar ôl darllen y ddogfen hon yn gyflym y prynhawn yma, rwy'n teimlo cymysgedd o'r ddau. Dryswch oherwydd rwy'n credu fy mod wedi camddeall mai dyma fyddai dyddiad cyhoeddi'r strategaeth economaidd newydd. Nid fi yw'r unig un, oherwydd sylwais fod Lee Waters wedi trydar ddoe: Cyn lansiad strategaeth economaidd newydd Llywodraeth Cymru yfory, rwyf wedi nodi rhai o'm meddyliau yn Western Mail heddiw, ac erthygl dda iawn oedd hi hefyd. A dyma ble yr ydym ni'n dod at yr anobaith, oherwydd roedd syniadau gwell, mwy diddorol a mwy gwreiddiol yn yr erthygl un dudalen honno na sydd yn y ddogfen hon. Mewn gwirionedd, yr hyn sydd gennym ni yma - . Cofiwch ein bod ni - [Torri ar draws.] Ac os oeddwn i yno, rwy'n siŵr y byddai'r un peth yn wir am friff busnes Hefin David yr wythnos nesaf. 'Cyn cyhoeddi strategaeth economaidd Llywodraeth Cymru' - mae angen i chi wella eich cyfathrebu mewnol o leiaf. Yr hyn sydd gennym ni, mewn gwirionedd, yw fersiwn lawnach o 'Symud Cymru Ymlaen', a gyhoeddwyd y llynedd. Mae'n fath o 'Symud Cymru Ymlaen' ar steroids, mewn gwirionedd, onid yw? Mae wedi tyfu o 15 tudalen i 27, felly ni all neb gyhuddo Llywodraeth Cymru o beidio â gwneud cynnydd. Dyna gynnydd o 100 y cant yng ngynhyrchiant Llywodraeth Cymru. Roedd gennym ni bedair strategaeth drawsbynciol. Nawr mae gennym ni - beth yw e' - pum blaenoriaeth drawsbynciol, a phedair thema allweddol a thri chynllun gweithredu. Yn sicr, ni allwch chi eu cyhuddo o beidio â bod yn gynhwysfawr. Nid oes gennyf yr amser i fynd ar ôl yr holl rai hynny, ond hoffwn ganolbwyntio ar un, ac, o ystyried y buom yn dathlu 20 mlynedd ers 1997 a datganoli, gadewch i ni ganolbwyntio ar yr economi, gan mai dyna oedd y cam mawr ymlaen i fod, y difidend datganoli. Fel y cyfeiriwyd ato eisoes, mewn gwirionedd, mae'r cynnydd yn y fan honno wedi bod yn gyfyngedig wrth gwrs. Gan edrych ar y 18 pwynt bwled - dyna'r cyfan ydyw, os ydych chi'n chwilio am gyfuchliniau'r strategaeth economaidd newydd, 18 pwynt bwled ar draws dwy dudalen - rwy'n ceisio deall, felly, beth y mae hynny'n dweud wrthym ni am gynnwys y strategaeth economaidd newydd. Efallai y bydd y Prif Weinidog yn gallu fy helpu. Y cwestiwn cyntaf yw: a dderbynnir graddfa'r her, mewn gwirionedd? Rwy'n credu eu bod ar feinciau cefn yr ochr sy'n llywodraethu. Nid wyf yn siŵr eu bod ar y fainc flaen. Oherwydd, fel y cyfeiriwyd ato eisoes, ym 1997, ble yr oeddem ni? Saith deg pedwar pwynt un y cant o werth ychwanegol gros y pen. Ble ydym ni nawr yn y ffigurau diweddaraf? Saith deg un y cant. Rydym ni wedi mynd ar yn ôl. Yr oeddem yn seithfed ar y cyfan, gyda llaw, o ran y 12 rhanbarth economaidd safonol yn y DU. Hyd yn oed ar hoff ddangosydd economaidd Llywodraeth Cymru, sef incwm gwario gros aelwydydd y pen, rydym ni hefyd wedi mynd ar yn ôl - 87.8 y cant i 85.3 y cant. Felly, a dderbynnir graddfa'r her? Yn ei sylwadau yn gynharach y prynhawn yma, dywedodd y Prif Weinidog ein bod, yn y 1990au, yn wlad yr oedd pobl ifanc yn awyddus i'w gadael. Wel, mewn gwirionedd, gwelsom adroddiad dros yr haf gan y Resolution Foundation yn dangos bod pobl ifanc galluog yn gadael Cymru. Collodd Cymru fwy o raddedigion rhwng 2016 - colled net o dros 20,000 o raddedigion yn ystod y cyfnod hwnnw. Rydym ni'n ddegfed o'r 12 rhanbarth safonol yn y Deyrnas Unedig o ran nifer y graddedigion a gollir. Yn ail, a fydd yna dargedau? Rydym ni wedi cael cynnydd anhygoel o wael. Sut allwn ni fesur, mewn gwirionedd, a ydym ni yn mynd i fod â record well o gyflawni yn y dyfodol? Oherwydd, fel y dywedodd Chris Kelsey, ychydig iawn o fanylion a dim ond ychydig o dargedau penodol a geir yn y strategaeth hon. A lle mae'r awydd, yr awch - yr wyf yn ei synhwyro, i fod yn deg, ar feinciau cefn Llafur - am newid radicalaidd o ran strategaeth? Yn y bôn, rydym wedi dilyn yr un strategaeth am 40, 50 mlynedd, sydd, yn ei hanfod, yn dibynnu ar fuddsoddiad uniongyrchol o dramor. Dyna'r cyfan. Rydym ni wedi torri'r gwys honno. Ac i beth? Ble mae'r awydd yn y 18 pwynt bwled hyn am dderbyn na fydd y strategaeth honno'n ein gwasanaethu'n dda yn y dyfodol, ac felly bod angen syniadau newydd radicalaidd arnom? Yn olaf, ar ddiwrnod olaf y tymor, dywedodd Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet eich bod yn bwriadu cyhoeddi'r strategaeth drawsbynciol hon ac yna y byddai rhaglen ymgysylltu helaeth â rhanddeiliaid. Rwy'n credu mai jargon yw hynny am 'siarad â phobl'. Wel, fe wnes i ychydig o siarad dros y penwythnos, oherwydd roeddwn i eisiau gwybod beth fyddai yn y strategaeth economaidd hon nad oedd yn ymddangos, ac fe siaradais i â rhai pobl fusnes blaenllaw yr wyf yn eu hadnabod ac a fydd yn adnabyddus i lawer o'r bobl yma; Siaradais â rhai o economegwyr blaenllaw Cymru. Nid oedd yr un ohonynt yn gwybod beth fyddai yn y strategaeth economaidd nac yn y pwyntiau bwled gan nad oedd neb o Lywodraeth Cymru wedi siarad â nhw. Felly, ar ba sail ydych chi wedi llunio'r 18 pwynt bwled hyn? Pwy ydych chi wedi siarad â nhw? Oherwydd, rwy'n ofni mai'r hyn a gawn ni pan fyddwn ni'n gweld y cynllun gweithredu economaidd o'r diwedd, fydd, unwaith eto, cyfrwng gwag heb unrhyw sylwedd.
