English: Thank you for that, but how many businesses are under the cosh and do we lose as a result of these high car parking charges? We are calling for improved rate relief for businesses valued up to £12,000, and tapered for those up to £15,000. In response to the draft revaluation, the Federation of Small Businesses has called for more regular revaluations to ensure that bills are more reflective of economic circumstances and rents, and for an agreed position on the local retention of business rates as soon as possible. Local retention would ensure local authority support, showing support for businesses, and could be reinvested in promoting and regenerating our high streets. Finally, it is essential that we recognise the benefit of small shops to the Welsh economy and our communities. There are 3,096 convenience stores in Wales, providing almost 25,000 jobs in Wales. Seventy-four per cent are owned and operated by small business owners. These offer valuable community services - local notice boards, cash machines, mobile phone top-up, parcel collection and click and collect services. Seventy-nine per cent of independent retailers in Wales engaged in some form of community work in the past year - collecting money for charity, providing support to community events and activities, sponsoring a local sports team or hosting local community or business association meetings and projects Deputy Llywydd, we must acknowledge and value our high streets to ensure that our town centres remain prosperous and vibrant after Small Business Saturday, after Christmas, all year round. Small Business Saturday, 3 December - let's tweet it, let's Facebook it, and let's celebrate it. [Assembly Members: 'Hear, hear.']
Welsh: Diolch am hynny, ond faint o fusnesau sy'n cael eu colbio ac sy'n cael eu colli o ganlyniad i'r ffioedd parcio uchel hyn? Rydym yn galw am ryddhad ardrethi gwell i fusnesau gwerth hyd at £12,000, ac wedi'i leihau'n raddol i fusnesau hyd at £15,000. Mewn ymateb i'r ailbrisiad drafft, mae'r Ffederasiwn Busnesau Bach wedi galw am ailbrisiadau mwy rheolaidd i sicrhau bod biliau'n adlewyrchu amgylchiadau economaidd a rhenti'n well, ac am gytuno safbwynt ar gadw ardrethi busnes yn lleol cyn gynted â phosibl. Byddai eu cadw'n lleol yn sicrhau cefnogaeth awdurdodau lleol i fusnesau, a gellid eu hailfuddsoddi yn y gwaith o hyrwyddo ac adfywio ein strydoedd mawr. Yn olaf, mae'n hanfodol ein bod yn cydnabod mantais siopau bach i economi Cymru a'n cymunedau. Mae 3,096 siopau cyfleustra sy'n darparu bron i 25,000 o swyddi yng Nghymru. Mae 74 y cant yn eiddo i, ac yn cael eu gweithredu gan berchnogion busnesau bach. Mae'r rhain yn cynnig gwasanaethau cymunedol gwerthfawr - hysbysfyrddau lleol, peiriannau arian, gwasanaethau rhoi arian ar ffonau symudol, casglu parseli a chlicio a chasglu. Cymerodd 79 y cant o fanwerthwyr annibynnol Cymru ran mewn rhyw ffurf ar waith cymunedol yn ystod y flwyddyn ddiwethaf - casglu arian ar gyfer elusennau, darparu cefnogaeth i ddigwyddiadau a gweithgareddau cymunedol, noddi tîm chwaraeon lleol neu gynnal cyfarfodydd cymunedol neu gymdeithasau busnes lleol a phrosiectau. Ddirprwy Lywydd, mae'n rhaid i ni gydnabod a gwerthfawrogi ein strydoedd mawr i sicrhau bod canol ein trefi'n parhau'n llewyrchus a bywiog ar ôl Dydd Sadwrn y Busnesau Bach, ar ôl y Nadolig, a thrwy gydol y flwyddyn. Dydd Sadwrn y Busnesau Bach, 3 Rhagfyr - gadewch i ni ei drydar, gadewch i ni ei roi ar Facebook, a gadewch i ni ei ddathlu. [Aelodau'r Cynulliad: 'Clywch, clywch.']
