English: I'm afraid that I can't share the contentment that some have with the progress made under this contract, or in general with broadband in Wales. Vikki Howells mentioned that only one out of every 25 homes has no access to broadband, but it appears to me, through the letters that I have, that whole villages are full of these one-in-25 homes in the area that I represent. By now, letters regarding access to broadband - in my postbag and in e-mail - have surpassed health. I've got more letters about broadband than health, and I've never seen that as an Assembly Member or as a Member of Parliament. It's clear that access to broadband has speeded up as the current contract comes to an end at the end of the year, but a number have complained that they haven't seen the access that they'd been expecting. There was a website showing people when their village was going to have access and when their house was going to be part of it. The publicity money was taken out of that website, so now, people don't know when that is going to happen. By now, I'm afraid we're in a situation where I feel that, despite the efforts of the Welsh Government, I'm not sure that we've had the service that we expected to have after spending over £150 million on BT and Openreach. I don't think they've performed fully according to their contract, and I will speak in a while about what we should do about that. For the areas that I represent, adequate access to broadband is now completely essential. You're talking in general about 10 Mbps, as Adam Price mentioned. By now, the expectations of people about how they can deal with the local economy has gone beyond that. We don't want to see people having to move from rural areas, to move from west Wales, in order to get nearer to the market. When you have an electronic market, it should be able to be used anywhere in Wales. Adam mentioned the fact that a study by the library of the House of Commons had found that seven out of 10 wards that had the slowest broadband were in Wales, and that six of them were in Mid and West Wales. But it's worse than that, because, when I looked at the figures, I was surprised to see the figures that the House of Commons library had. They said that these figures were bad. For example, Trelech in Carmarthen west has 3.8 Mbps, Yscir has 4.2 Mbps, and Llanfihangel Aberbythych has 4.2 Mbps. Over the summer, I have conducted my own survey, in Meirion-Dwyfor, in Ceredigion, and in Pembrokeshire and Carmarthenshire, about what is the speed that people are actually receiving in their homes. They are as low as 0.2 Mbps; they would be really pleased to have 4.1 Mbps or 4.2 Mbps. I don't know where these figures come from; perhaps from the house next door to the cabinet or something. The reality of what you get 100 yards, or more than 100 yards, down the copper line from the Cabinet in rural Wales is completely different from these figures, and there is a desperate need to look at that.
Welsh: Mae arnaf ofn na allaf i rannu'r bodlonrwydd sydd gyda rhai gyda'r cynnydd o dan y contract yma, neu yn gyffredinol gyda band llydan yng Nghymru. Fe soniodd Vikki Howells mai dim ond un o bob 25 o dai sydd heb fynediad at fand llydan, ond mae'n ymddangos i fi, drwy'r llythyrau rydw i'n eu cael, fod pentrefi cyfan yn llawn o'r un o'r 25 o dai yma, felly, yn yr ardal rydw i'n ei chynrychioli. Erbyn hyn, mae'r llythyrau ynglŷn â mynediad at broadband wedi mynd - yn fy post bag i ac yn fy e-byst i - heibio iechyd. Mae gen i fwy o lythyrau ynglŷn â band llydan nac iechyd, ac nid ydw i erioed wedi gweld hynny fel Aelod Cynulliad nac Aelod Seneddol. Mae'n amlwg fod mynediad at fand llydan wedi prysuro dros yr adeg yma gan bod y cytundeb presennol yn dod i ben ddiwedd y flwyddyn, a chan bod nifer yn cwyno nad ydynt wedi gweld y mynediad y maen nhw wedi bod yn ei ddisgwyl. Roedd yna wefan yn dangos i bobl pryd oedd y pentref i fod i'w gael, a phryd roedd eu tŷ nhw i fod yn rhan ohono fe. Tynnwyd yr arian cyhoeddusrwydd allan o'r wefan yna, felly bellach nid yw pobl yn gwybod pryd mae'r cyflawniad yn mynd i ddigwydd. Ac, erbyn hyn, rwy'n ofni fy mod i mewn sefyllfa i deimlo, er gwaethaf ymdrechion Llywodraeth Cymru, nad wyf yn siŵr ein bod ni wedi cael y gwasanaeth y byddem ni wedi disgwyl ei gael am wariant o dros £150 miliwn gan Openreach a BT. Nid wyf fi'n meddwl eu bod nhw wedi perfformio yn llawn i'r contract. Rwy'n dod i siarad mewn ychydig ynglŷn â beth y dylem ni ei wneud ynghylch hynny. I'r ardaloedd rydw i'n eu cynrychioli, mae mynediad digonol at fand llydan bellach yn hollol hanfodol. Rydych chi'n sôn yn gyffredinol am 10 Mbps, fel roedd Adam Price yn sôn amdano; erbyn hyn, mae disgwyliadau pobl o sut y mae'n nhw'n gallu ymdrin â'r economi leol wedi mynd y tu hwnt i hynny. Nid ydym ni eisiau gweld pobl yn gorfod symud o gefn gwlad, symud o orllewin Cymru, er mwyn bod yn nes at y farchnad. Pan fo gyda chi farchnad electronig, dylai fod yn bosib i ymwneud â'r farchnad yma unrhyw le yng Nghymru. Fe soniodd Adam am y ffaith bod astudiaeth gan lyfrgell Tŷ'r Cyffredin wedi canfod bod saith o'r 10 ward gyda'r band llydan mwyaf araf i'w cael yng Nghymru, a bod chwech ohonyn nhw yn etholaeth Canolbarth a Gorllewin Cymru. Ond mae'n waeth na hynny, achos pan edrychais i ar y ffigurau, roeddwn i'n synnu, a dweud y gwir, i weld y ffigurau a oedd gan lyfrgell Tŷ'r Cyffredin. Roedden nhw'n dweud bod y ffigurau yma yn wael. Er enghraifft: Trelech yng ngorllewin Caerfyrddin, 3.8 Mbps; Yscir, 4.2 Mbps; Llanfihangel Aberbythych, 4.2 Mbps. Nawr, rydw i, dros yr haf diwethaf, wedi gwneud fy astudiaeth fy hunan, ym Meirion-Dwyfor, yng Ngheredigion, yn sir Benfro ac yn sir Gâr, o beth yw'r cyflymder y mae pobl yn ei gael go iawn yn eu tai nhw. Ac mae'r rheini mor isel â 0.2 Mbps; bydden nhw wrth eu boddau yn cael 4.1 Mbps neu 4.2 Mbps. Dydw i ddim yn gwybod o lle mae'r ffigurau yma yn dod - efallai o'r tŷ y drws nesaf i'r cabinet, neu rywbeth. Mae'r realiti o beth gewch chi 100 llath, neu fwy na 100 llath, i lawr y copper line o'r cabinet yng nghefn gwlad yn gwbl wahanol i'r ffigurau hyn. Mae taer angen edrych ar hynny gan y Llywodraeth.
