English: I am, of course, going to support the motion. The motion would have been very different, I'm sure, had it not been tabled before the flooding that we've seen in recent days, but it is an opportunity to look at the responses that are required. Of course, I did call for financial support for those affected over the last week, and I'm very pleased that the Government has committed to the same level of support for those affected this time as was provided last year. But there are lessons to be learned from that too, as we've already heard. It's important that the delays we saw in getting those payments out last time aren't repeated. It's not acceptable that it took up to two months for those people who had been affected to receive the support, because they need that support now. It's now that they're losing their salaries and it's now that they need to respond to the mess and destruction in their homes and businesses. They also need practical assistance in terms of improving the resilience of their homes immediately, because many, of course, fear similar things happening in the next few weeks, and it's not just those who've been impacted but those who were almost affected too, because we are talking here about things like flood gates, which could prevent damage to homes that came within a hair's breadth of being damaged last time. We need a plan in place that can respond in order to provide that immediately. We need to strengthen as a matter of urgency the infrastructure that has failed over the past few days. I know in Rhuthin that local residents are very concerned that neither the council nor Natural Resources Wales, nor anyone else, has actually strengthened the bund that failed last week. So, we do need to provide people with peace of mind by resolving those problems, but also ensure that this doesn't happen again in the short term whilst the long-term solutions are also implemented. Yes, we need to continue to invest in hard infrastructure, but we need better soft infrastructure too. This is a theme we return to regularly: natural flood management; more flood plains; more trees planted, as we heard in the opening remarks; dealing with culverts and so on. The Government has been talking about this for years. We haven't seen the interventions at the level that we would have expected or would've hoped to have seen. We need the capacity for NRW, in terms of staffing, and we need to improve flood maps, which are very often nothing more than a finger in the air. So, there's a great deal that can be done and I would take this opportunity in this debate to encourage the Government to take action on all of those issues.
Welsh: Dwi am gefnogi, wrth gwrs, y cynnig yma. Mi fuasai natur y cynnig, dwi'n siŵr, yn wahanol iawn petai e heb gael ei osod cyn yr achosion o lifogydd a welon ni yn y dyddiau diwethaf, ond mae e yn gyfle, dwi'n meddwl, i ehangu ar rai o'r ymatebion sydd angen eu gweld. Mi wnes i, wrth gwrs, alw am gefnogaeth ariannol i'r rhai a gafodd eu heffeithio yn yr wythnos diwethaf, a dwi'n falch iawn bod y Llywodraeth wedi ymrwymo i'r un lefel o gefnogaeth i'r rhai sydd wedi cael eu heffeithio'r tro hyn ag a gafwyd y flwyddyn ddiwethaf. Ond mae yna wersi i'w dysgu o hynny hefyd, fel rŷn ni wedi clywed. Mae'n bwysig bod yr oedi a welwyd mewn cael y taliadau yna allan y tro diwethaf ddim yn cael ei ailadrodd y tro hwn. Dyw hi ddim yn dderbyniol iddi gymryd hyd at ddau fis i'r bobl yma sydd wedi cael eu heffeithio i dderbyn y gefnogaeth, oherwydd rŵan maen nhw angen y gefnogaeth, rŵan maen nhw'n colli eu cyflogau a rŵan maen nhw angen ymateb i'r difrod a'r llanast sydd yn eu cartrefi a'u busnesau. Mae hefyd angen help ymarferol ar y cartrefi a'r trigolion yma i wella cydnerthedd eu cartrefi yn syth, oherwydd mae nifer, wrth gwrs, yn ofn gweld achosion tebyg yn digwydd yn yr wythnosau nesaf o ail lifogydd, ac nid dim ond y rhai sydd wedi cael eu heffeithio ond y rhai a fuodd bron iawn â chael eu heffeithio hefyd, wrth gwrs, oherwydd rŷn ni'n sôn fan hyn am bethau fel gatiau llifogydd fyddai'n atal difrod i'r cartrefi fuodd o fewn trwch blewyn o gael difrod y tro diwethaf. Mae angen cynllun yn ei le sydd yn gallu ymateb i ddarparu hynny yn syth. Mae angen cryfhau ar fyrder yr isadeiledd sydd wedi methu mewn rhai achosion dros y dyddiau diwethaf yma. Dwi'n gwybod yn fan hyn yn Rhuthun, mae'r trigolion lleol yn gofidio'n fawr iawn nad yw'r cyngor na Chyfoeth Naturiol Cymru, nac unrhyw un arall, wedi mynd ati i gryfhau'r bwnd wnaeth fod yn fethiannus yr wythnos diwethaf. Felly, mae angen rhoi tawelwch meddwl i bobl drwy ddatrys y problemau hynny, ond hefyd, wrth gwrs, sicrhau na fydd hyn yn digwydd eto yn y tymor byr tra bod y datrysiadau tymor hir yma yn cael eu gweithredu arnyn nhw. Oes, mae angen parhau i fuddsoddi mewn isadeiledd caled, ond mae angen gwell isadeiledd meddal hefyd. Mae hon yn thema rŷn ni'n dod yn ôl ati yn gyson, wrth gwrs: rheolaeth llifogydd naturiol; mwy o orlifdiroedd; mwy o goed, fel y clywon ni wrth i'r ddadl yma gael ei hagor; cau ffosydd. Mae'r Llywodraeth wedi bod yn siarad am y pethau yma ers blynyddoedd mawr. Dŷn ni ddim wedi gweld yr interventions ar y lefel y byddem ni wedi disgwyl yn digwydd fel y byddem ni wedi gobeithio. Mae angen y capasiti o ran staffio ar Gyfoeth Naturiol Cymru ac mae angen gwella mapiau llifogydd, sydd yn aml iawn yn ddim byd mwy na bys yn y gwynt. Felly, mae yna lawer y gellir ei wneud, a byddwn yn achub ar y cyfle yn y ddadl yma i annog y Llywodraeth nawr i weithredu ar bob un o'r materion yna.
