English: I thank David Melding for those important points. I entirely agree with him about the importance of transition and that young people who are already getting help in one part of the system - that the next move that they will make within the education ladder, the work that has been invested with them in one place, is properly translated to the next place that they intend to go, so that that transition is as smooth as it possibly can be. The Higher Education Funding Council for Wales published its position statement on well-being and health in June of this year. It has a series of actions that it proposes from the position statement that it will work on, together with NUS in Wales - the National Union of Students - to make sure that young people with autism who are studying in higher education have all of the help that they need. I recall the Swansea incident to which David Melding refers. Within the last two weeks, I met a young woman who is studying at Swansea University today who was very positive indeed about the help that she was receiving to make sure that her autistic condition was recognised and understood. She was getting some help through the disabled student support allowance that we have here in Wales - 3,400 Welsh students benefiting from that £8 million fund. But the money was a small part of what she felt she was getting. It was the understanding that she was experiencing from the university, from her tutors and others, that she felt was supporting her to make the very best of her abilities and to get everything she wanted out of her higher education experience. Better transition planning, making sure that the things that David Melding referred to are done, would be of help in any young person's experience.
Welsh: Diolchaf i David Melding am y pwyntiau pwysig yna. Rwy'n cytuno'n llwyr ag ef ynghylch pwysigrwydd pontio a bod pobl ifanc sydd eisoes yn cael cymorth mewn un rhan o'r system - y bydd y cam nesaf y maen nhw'n ei wneud ar yr ysgol addysg, y gwaith a wnaed gyda nhw mewn un lle, yn cael ei drosi'n briodol i'r lle nesaf y maen nhw'n bwriadu mynd iddo, fel bod y newid hwnnw mor ddidrafferth ag y gall fod. Cyhoeddodd Cyngor Cyllido Addysg Uwch Cymru ei ddatganiad sefyllfa ar lesiant ac iechyd ym mis Mehefin eleni. Mae ganddo gyfres o gamau y mae'n eu cynnig o'r datganiad sefyllfa y bydd yn gweithio arnyn nhw, ynghyd ag UCM yng Nghymru - Undeb Cenedlaethol y Myfyrwyr - i wneud yn siŵr bod pobl ifanc ag awtistiaeth sy'n astudio mewn addysg uwch yn cael yr holl gymorth sydd ei angen arnynt. Rwy'n cofio'r digwyddiad yn Abertawe y mae David Melding yn cyfeirio ato. O fewn y pythefnos diwethaf, cyfarfûm â menyw ifanc sy'n astudio ym Mhrifysgol Abertawe heddiw a oedd yn gadarnhaol iawn yn wir am y cymorth yr oedd hi'n ei gael i sicrhau bod ei chyflwr awtistig yn cael ei gydnabod a'i ddeall. Roedd hi'n cael rhywfaint o gymorth drwy'r lwfans cymorth i fyfyrwyr anabl sydd gennym ni yma yng Nghymru - mae 3,400 o fyfyrwyr o Gymru yn elwa ar y gronfa £8 miliwn honno. Ond rhan fach o'r hyn yr oedd hi'n teimlo yr oedd hi'n ei gael oedd yr arian. Y ddealltwriaeth yr oedd hi'n ei chael gan y brifysgol, gan ei thiwtoriaid ac eraill, yr oedd hi'n ei deimlo oedd yn ei chynorthwyo i wneud y gorau o'i gallu ac i gael popeth yr oedd hi ei eisiau allan o'i phrofiad addysg uwch. Byddai cynllunio gwell ar gyfer pontio, gan sicrhau bod y pethau y cyfeiriodd David Melding atyn nhw yn cael eu gwneud, o gymorth ym mhrofiad unrhyw berson ifanc.
