English: Through the European transition fund, we are providing an additional £360,000 over the next two years to the national hate crime report and support centre, run by Victim Support Cymru. That is important, as Joyce Watson said, it is also about how we're addressing this, raising awareness and supporting victims. The funding is going to be used to train volunteers and raise awareness of how to report hate crime. I visited the centre last week, along with organisations such as Stonewall Cymru and Pride, when we were looking at how we could ensure, support and advise the national hate crime report and support centre about the issues and that we were now able to extend their services with this funding. Supporting victims is crucial, but we need to prevent hateful attitudes from forming in the first place. So, that's why we're also, through the EU transition funding, providing £350,000 to the Welsh Local Government Association for the hate crime in schools project. This project is designed to encourage children to develop their critical thinking skills, to question hateful speech and behaviour, and dissuade them from becoming perpetrators of hate crime in the future. So, activities will equip staff with the skills to challenge hate crime and support victims in school. And it is through this and the wider work on the new curriculum, which has already been mentioned, that we aim to support teaching staff to ensure that schools nurture ethical, informed citizens who contribute to more cohesive society. We are developing a Wales-wide anti-hate crime communications campaign. We're gathering the views of people affected by hate crime to help shape the campaign. But I'm also pleased we've seen the growth of LGBT+ self-organised student groups in many of our schools. You've mentioned St Teilo's, Jenny Rathbone, the school group, and there are student-led bodies that are having a positive impact on their school communities and the attitudes and values of future generations of Welsh citizens. I met with the GISDA project recently in north Wales. I'm horrified to hear about the assaults and the daily attitudes that those young people have faced. I raised this immediately with North Wales Police and community safety agencies, and I think there now is support coming forward. But we do need to do all we can to advance LGBT rights through policy, funding and visible support. This can be also done through the events that we hold throughout the year - Pride events. In fact, in September, I had the honour of opening the first ever Barry Pride, and Pride events are happening in towns across Wales. The First Minister led the Pride Cymru parade in Cardiff. They do raise awareness of equality and diversity in the most visible way, and we provided £21,000 for Pride Cymru for this year's event. I think it is important that the funding that we're giving to Stonewall Cymru, which we gave in 2017 for the equality inclusion grant, does include appointing a new education youth officer to work within schools across Wales, taking forward their school role models programme. And those role models will visit schools across Wales to tell their stories and raise awareness of LGBT people's experience. But they also have specific funding for a trans engagement officer. So, it is through early-intervention prevention work, it's our community cohesion programme - £1.52 million over the next two years - supporting small teams in each of our eight community cohesion regions of Wales that we can improve and intensify our preventative work. And I do hope, also, that we can work together in terms of not just Welsh Government, local authorities, third sector, with the hate crime criminal justice board, but it also has to be with the UK Government. So, we do look forward to seeing Lord Thomas's commission's report when it's published tomorrow. We'll be looking carefully at those recommendations and seeing what more we can do to improve justice outcomes. But I hope the reflection on wider issues will inform our consideration of how we can better tackle LGBT+ hate crime. We need a justice system that works for Wales, aligned with our policy drivers and commitment. So, in closing, I want to reiterate that we are committed to creating a society where diversity is valued and respected and where everyone can flourish. I want to have a Government debate next year on hate crime to provide that progress report you called for and to ensure that we can be held to account for the work we're doing to drive this forward.
Welsh: Drwy gronfa bontio'r UE, rydym yn darparu £360,000 ychwanegol dros y ddwy flynedd nesaf i'r ganolfan genedlaethol adrodd am droseddau casineb a chymorth, sy'n cael ei rhedeg gan Cymorth i Ddioddefwyr Cymru. Mae hynny'n bwysig, fel y dywedodd Joyce Watson, ac mae hefyd yn ymwneud â sut rydym yn mynd i'r afael â hyn, gan godi ymwybyddiaeth a chefnogi dioddefwyr. Bydd yr arian cael ei ddefnyddio i hyfforddi gwirfoddolwyr a chodi ymwybyddiaeth o sut i adrodd am droseddau casineb. Ymwelais â'r ganolfan yr wythnos ddiwethaf, ynghyd â sefydliadau megis Stonewall Cymru a Pride, pan fuom yn edrych ar sut y gallem sicrhau, cefnogi a chynghori'r ganolfan genedlaethol adrodd am droseddau casineb a chymorth mewn perthynas â'r materion dan sylw a bellach, gallwn ymestyn eu gwasanaethau gyda'r cyllid hwn. Mae cefnogi dioddefwyr yn hanfodol, ond mae angen i ni atal agweddau cas rhag ffurfio yn y lle cyntaf. Felly, dyna pam rydym hefyd, drwy gyllid pontio'r UE, yn darparu £350,000 i Gymdeithas Llywodraeth Leol Cymru ar gyfer y prosiect troseddau casineb mewn ysgolion. Mae'r prosiect hwn wedi'i gynllunio i annog plant i ddatblygu eu sgiliau meddwl beirniadol, i gwestiynu siarad ac ymddygiad cas, a'u darbwyllo i beidio â chyflawni troseddau casineb yn y dyfodol. Felly, bydd gweithgareddau'n arfogi staff â'r sgiliau i herio troseddau casineb a chefnogi dioddefwyr yn yr ysgol. A thrwy hyn a'r gwaith ehangach ar y cwricwlwm newydd, sydd eisoes wedi'i grybwyll, ein nod yw cefnogi staff addysgu i sicrhau bod ysgolion yn meithrin dinasyddion egwyddorol, gwybodus sy'n cyfrannu at gymdeithas fwy cydlynus. Rydym yn datblygu ymgyrch gyfathrebu ar droseddau casineb drwy Gymru gyfan. Rydym yn casglu barn pobl yr effeithiwyd arnynt gan droseddau casineb i helpu i lunio'r ymgyrch. Ond rwyf hefyd yn falch ein bod wedi gweld cynnydd mewn grwpiau myfyrwyr LHDT+ mewn llawer o'n hysgolion. Fe sonioch chi am Ysgol Teilo Sant, Jenny Rathbone, y grŵp yn yr ysgol, ac mae yna gyrff a arweinir gan fyfyrwyr sy'n cael effaith gadarnhaol ar eu cymunedau ysgol ac ar agweddau a gwerthoedd cenedlaethau'r dyfodol o ddinasyddion Cymru. Cyfarfûm â phrosiect GISDA yng ngogledd Cymru yn ddiweddar. Rwy'n arswydo wrth glywed am yr ymosodiadau a'r agweddau y mae'r bobl ifanc hynny wedi'u hwynebu'n ddyddiol. Codais hyn ar unwaith gyda Heddlu Gogledd Cymru ac asiantaethau diogelwch cymunedol, ac rwy'n credu bod cymorth ar gael bellach. Ond mae angen i ni wneud popeth yn ein gallu i hybu hawliau pobl LHDT drwy bolisïau, cyllid a chefnogaeth weladwy. Gellid gwneud hyn hefyd drwy'r digwyddiadau rydym yn eu cynnal drwy gydol y flwyddyn - digwyddiadau Pride. Yn wir, ym mis Medi, cefais y fraint o agor digwyddiad Pride y Barri cyntaf erioed, ac mae digwyddiadau Pride yn digwydd mewn trefi ledled Cymru. Y Prif Weinidog a arweiniodd orymdaith Pride Cymru yng Nghaerdydd. Maent yn codi ymwybyddiaeth o gydraddoldeb ac amrywiaeth yn y ffordd fwyaf amlwg, ac fe wnaethom ddarparu £21,000 i Pride Cymru ar gyfer y digwyddiad eleni. Credaf ei bod yn bwysig fod yr arian rydym yn ei roi i Stonewall Cymru, arian a roesom yn 2017 ar gyfer y grant cydraddoldeb a chynhwysiant, yn cynnwys penodi swyddog ieuenctid addysg newydd i weithio mewn ysgolion ledled Cymru, gan ddatblygu eu rhaglen modelau rôl mewn ysgolion. A bydd y modelau rôl hynny'n ymweld ag ysgolion ledled Cymru i adrodd eu straeon a chodi ymwybyddiaeth o brofiad pobl LHDT. Ond mae ganddynt hefyd gyllid penodol ar gyfer swyddog ymgysylltu traws. Felly, drwy waith atal ymyrraeth gynnar, drwy ein rhaglen cydlyniant cymunedol - £1.52 miliwn dros y ddwy flynedd nesaf - yn cefnogi timau bach ym mhob un o'r wyth rhanbarth cydlyniant cymunedol yng Nghymru y gallwn wella a dwysáu ein gwaith ataliol. Ac rwy'n gobeithio, hefyd, y gallwn weithio gyda'n gilydd, nid yn unig fel Llywodraeth Cymru, awdurdodau lleol, y trydydd sector, gyda'r bwrdd cyfiawnder troseddol ar gyfer troseddau casineb, ond mae'n rhaid iddo fod gyda Llywodraeth y DU hefyd. Felly, rydym yn edrych ymlaen at weld adroddiad comisiynydd yr Arglwydd Thomas pan gaiff ei gyhoeddi yfory. Byddwn yn edrych yn ofalus ar yr argymhellion hynny ac yn gweld beth arall y gallwn ei wneud i wella canlyniadau cyfiawnder. Ond rwy'n gobeithio y bydd yr ystyriaeth a roddwyd i faterion ehangach yn llywio ein hystyriaeth ynglŷn â sut y gallwn fynd i'r afael â throseddau casineb LHDT+ yn well. Rydym angen system gyfiawnder sy'n gweithio i Gymru, sy'n gyson â'n hysgogiadau polisi a'n hymrwymiad. Felly, i gloi, hoffwn ailadrodd ein bod wedi ymrwymo i greu cymdeithas lle caiff amrywiaeth ei gwerthfawrogi a'i pharchu a lle gall pawb ffynnu. Rwyf eisiau cael dadl ar droseddau casineb yn y Llywodraeth y flwyddyn nesaf i ddarparu'r adroddiad cynnydd hwnnw y galwasoch amdano a sicrhau y gallwn gael ein dwyn i gyfrif am y gwaith a wnawn i symud ymlaen ar hyn.
