English: I'm very pleased I can count on the support of the UKIP Members in taking forward our legislation on letting agency fees, which it is our intention to introduce, as the First Minister make clear yesterday. The sticking point was purely that of displacement of cost, and we would have to be convinced that the displacement of cost wasn't attributed to the rents by letting agents. I know many Members, including Jenny Rathbone on our benches, have been keen to pursue this very issue.
Welsh: Rwy'n falch iawn fy mod yn gallu dibynnu ar gefnogaeth Aelodau UKIP i fwrw ymlaen â'n deddfwriaeth ar ffioedd asiantaethau gosod tai, sef yr hyn y bwriadwn ei gyflwyno, fel y gwnaeth y Prif Weinidog yn glir ddoe. Yr unig faen tramgwydd oedd symudiad y gost, a byddai'n rhaid i ni fod yn argyhoeddedig na fyddai asiantau gosod tai'n symud y gost i'r rhenti. Rwy'n gwybod fod llawer o Aelodau, gan gynnwys Jenny Rathbone ar ein meinciau, wedi bod yn awyddus i fynd ar drywydd y mater hwn.
English: Thanks for that, and I hope that the legislation is taken forward and is, ultimately, effective. But going on to another issue that was covered in 'Taking Wales Forward': nursery places. There was a Welsh Government commitment to providing 30 hours a week of free childcare for working parents of three and four-year-olds. The intention was to pilot new schemes starting this coming September to cover approximately 10 per cent of eligible families. So, I wondered what information there was about where the pilots will take place and on what basis your decision was taken as to why to initiate in those particular areas.
Welsh: Diolch am hynny, ac rwy'n gobeithio y bydd y ddeddfwriaeth yn cael ei chyflwyno ac y bydd, yn y pen draw, yn effeithiol. Ond gan symud ymlaen at fater arall a gafodd ei gynnwys yn 'Symud Cymru Ymlaen': lleoedd meithrin. Roedd ymrwymiad gan Lywodraeth Cymru i ddarparu 30 awr yr wythnos o ofal plant am ddim i rieni plant tair a phedair oed sy'n gweithio. Y bwriad oedd cychwyn treialu cynlluniau newydd ym mis Medi i ddarparu ar gyfer tua 10 y cant o deuluoedd cymwys. Felly, roeddwn yn meddwl tybed pa wybodaeth sydd ar gael ynglŷn â ble fydd y cynlluniau peilot yn digwydd ac ar ba sail y gwnaethoch eich penderfyniad i gychwyn yn yr ardaloedd penodol hynny.
English: I've issued several statements on the childcare pledge, and I'm really looking forward to the start of that programme developing from September of this year. Indeed, in Blaenau Gwent, in my colleague Alun Davies's constituency, the whole of Blaenau Gwent will be considered as a pilot scheme, and, therefore, our young children having free childcare places for working parents. This is the most dynamic childcare pledge in the whole of the UK, which we're starting to pilot here in Wales. I would refer the Member to my statement in terms of the areas that this will be conducted in. They were chosen from offers made by local authorities in terms of which could come forward with the scheme at this point in time. But let me give reassurance to the Member, all authorities across Wales, by the end of this term of Government, will have full coverage of our childcare pledge in Wales.
Welsh: Rwyf wedi cyhoeddi nifer o ddatganiadau ar yr addewid gofal plant, ac rwy'n edrych ymlaen at ddechrau datblygu'r rhaglen honno o fis Medi eleni ymlaen. Yn wir, ym Mlaenau Gwent, yn etholaeth fy nghyd-Aelod Alun Davies, bydd Blaenau Gwent yn ei chyfanrwydd yn cael ei hystyried fel cynllun peilot, ac felly, bydd ein plant ifanc sydd â rhieni sy'n gweithio yn cael lleoedd gofal plant am ddim. Hwn yw'r addewid gofal plant mwyaf dynamig yn y DU gyfan, ac rydym yn dechrau ei dreialu yma yng Nghymru. Byddwn yn cyfeirio'r Aelod at fy natganiad o ran yr ardaloedd lle bydd hyn yn digwydd. Fe'u dewiswyd o blith cynigion a wnaed gan awdurdodau lleol o ran pa rai a fyddai'n gallu cyflwyno'r cynllun ar hyn o bryd. Ond gadewch i mi sicrhau'r Aelod y bydd pob awdurdod ledled Cymru erbyn diwedd tymor y Llywodraeth hon yn darparu ein haddewid gofal plant yng Nghymru yn llawn.
English: Thanks for that, and I look forward to that happening. Just moving on to an issue that we talked about last week, in the aftermath of the Grenfell Tower disaster, now I know you made a statement on this to the Chamber, so we have discussed these issues - . One thing that has arisen as a possible problem in tackling regulation in Wales is the split of responsibilities between yourself and your colleague Lesley Griffiths, in that Lesley Griffiths's responsibilities, I believe, cover the building regulations side, whereas you're in charge of fire and rescue services and community fire safety. So, I just wondered what your thoughts were on that and how you would tackle the difficulty of that split.
Welsh: Diolch am hynny, ac edrychaf ymlaen at weld hynny'n digwydd. Gan symud ymlaen at fater y soniasom amdano yr wythnos diwethaf, yn dilyn trychineb Tower Grenfell, nawr rwy'n gwybod eich bod wedi gwneud datganiad ar hyn i'r Siambr, felly rydym wedi trafod y materion hyn - . Un peth sydd wedi codi fel problem bosibl wrth fynd i'r afael â rheoleiddio yng Nghymru yw'r rhaniad yn y cyfrifoldebau rhyngoch chi a'ch cyd-Aelod, Lesley Griffiths, yn yr ystyr bod cyfrifoldebau Lesley Griffiths, rwy'n credu, yn cynnwys yr ochr sy'n ymwneud â rheoliadau adeiladu, ac rydych chi'n gyfrifol am wasanaethau tân ac achub a diogelwch tân cymunedol. Felly, roeddwn yn meddwl tybed beth oedd eich barn ar hynny a sut y byddech yn mynd i'r afael ag anhawster y rhaniad hwnnw.
English: Let me give reassurance to the Member again: there is no difficulty in terms of responsibility within the Welsh Government on this. I am the lead Minister on this, including the building regulations side, and the fire risk to any properties in Wales. I have had several meetings with the UK Government, and my Scottish and English counterparts, on this. This is a very live issue, which we are taking very seriously. I work very closely with Lesley Griffiths's department, but I am the lead Minister.
Welsh: Gadewch i mi roi sicrwydd i'r Aelod unwaith eto: nid oes unrhyw anhawster o ran cyfrifoldeb o fewn Llywodraeth Cymru ar hyn. Fi yw'r Gweinidog arweiniol ar hyn, gan gynnwys yr ochr sy'n ymwneud â rheoliadau adeiladu, a'r perygl tân i unrhyw adeiladau yng Nghymru. Rwyf wedi cael sawl cyfarfod gyda Llywodraeth y DU, yn ogystal â fy swyddogion cyfatebol yn yr Alban ac yn Lloegr, ar hyn. Mae hwn yn fater byw iawn ac rydym o ddifrif yn ei gylch. Rwy'n gweithio'n agos iawn gydag adran Lesley Griffiths, ond fi yw'r Gweinidog arweiniol.
English: Diolch. It's been three months since the announcement of the 1,600-capacity men's prison in Port Talbot. And I just wanted to probe further on your response from last time I raised this. I didn't believe that you were clear and forthright enough when you made a statement to the Assembly on 22 March regarding the level of engagement that you had had with the Ministry of Justice. The prisons Minister has confirmed, in a letter dated 31 May to me, that your department proactively helped the MOJ to identify sites, and that's a little bit more than 'had discussions', which was all that you said at the time. On 22 March, you also said, and I quote, 'there are many questions that remain unanswered by the MOJ.' Since it has been confirmed by the prisons Minister that you were engaged in the process before the news became public, why don't you have more answers regarding the MOJ's intentions?
Welsh: Diolch. Mae tri mis wedi bod ers y cyhoeddiad ynglŷn â'r carchar dynion gyda chapasiti o 1,600 ym Mhort Talbot. Ac roeddwn eisiau holi mwy ynglŷn â'r ymateb a roesoch i mi y tro diwethaf y crybwyllais hyn. Nid oeddwn yn credu eich bod yn ddigon clir a phendant pan wnaethoch ddatganiad i'r Cynulliad ar 22 Mawrth ynglŷn â lefel yr ymgysylltiad roeddech wedi'i gael gyda'r Weinyddiaeth Gyfiawnder. Mae'r Gweinidog carchardai wedi cadarnhau, mewn llythyr ataf ar 31 Mai, fod eich adran wedi chwarae rhan ragweithiol yn helpu'r Weinyddiaeth Gyfiawnder i nodi safleoedd, ac mae hynny ychydig yn fwy na 'chael trafodaethau', sef y cyfan a ddywedoch ar y pryd. Ar 22 Mawrth, fe ddywedoch hefyd, a dyfynnaf, mae llawer o gwestiynau sy'n parhau heb eu hateb gan y Weinyddiaeth Gyfiawnder. Gan fod y Gweinidog carchardai wedi cadarnhau eich bod wedi cymryd rhan yn y broses cyn i'r newyddion ddod yn gyhoeddus, pam nad oes gennych fwy o atebion mewn perthynas â bwriadau'r Weinyddiaeth Gyfiawnder?
English: I think the Member's being rather overzealous in her questioning to me. I was very clear to her: I had one discussion with the prisons Minister prior to his announcement, which was on the day. Indeed, my team, and a team of other officials from another department, were engaged with the prisons Minister's department in terms of deciding and offering sites that were available right across the south Wales region, which I know the Member is clear on also.
Welsh: Rwy'n credu bod yr Aelod braidd yn orfrwdfrydig yn ei chwestiynau i mi. Roeddwn yn glir iawn wrthi: cefais un drafodaeth gyda'r Gweinidog carchardai cyn ei gyhoeddiad ar y diwrnod hwnnw. Yn wir, roedd fy nhîm, a thîm o swyddogion eraill o adran arall, yn ymgysylltu ag adran y Gweinidog carchardai o ran penderfynu a chynnig safleoedd a oedd ar gael ar draws rhanbarth de Cymru, a gwn fod yr Aelod yn glir ynglŷn â hynny hefyd.
English: Can I just ask then, why did you just have one conversation? If you had offered those sites, surely it would have been good for you, as a Cabinet Secretary, to be proactive in actually taking on some of the concerns that you would have prior to that public announcement. I've seen a list of quite a number of sites, which has clearly been given by your department. Were questions raised, such as, was this category C prison needed? The Wales Governance Centre has proven in research that such a size of a prison is not necessary for Wales. There's no women's prison, so why not have conversations with the MOJ with regard to expansion in that regard? Can I just get an idea as to what ongoing conversations you're having, to satisfy the people of Port Talbot that you are making every effort to make them aware of releasing the land, where that location will be - hopefully, it won't be happening, but where the location you have identified would be - and how they will be kept informed of the process ongoing, via yourself, not just the UK Government?
Welsh: A gaf fi ofyn felly, pam mai un sgwrs yn unig a gawsoch? Os oeddech wedi cynnig y safleoedd hynny, yn sicr byddai wedi bod yn dda i chi, fel Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet, fod wedi mynd ati'n rhagweithiol i fynd i'r afael â rhai o'r pryderon a fyddai gennych cyn y cyhoeddiad cyhoeddus hwnnw. Rwyf wedi gweld rhestr o nifer o safleoedd, a roddwyd gan eich adran, yn amlwg. A gafodd unrhyw gwestiynau eu gofyn, megis a oedd angen y carchar categori C hwn er enghraifft? Mae Canolfan Llywodraethiant Cymru wedi profi mewn ymchwil nad oes angen carchar o'r maint hwn ar gyfer Cymru. Nid oes carchar ar gyfer menywod, felly beth am gael sgwrs gyda'r Weinyddiaeth Gyfiawnder mewn perthynas ag ehangu yn hynny o beth? A gaf fi syniad pa sgyrsiau rydych yn eu cael, er mwyn sicrhau pobl Port Talbot eich bod yn gwneud pob ymdrech i'w gwneud yn ymwybodol o ryddhau'r tir, lle bydd y lleoliad hwnnw - gobeithio na fydd yn digwydd, ond lle byddai'r lleoliad a nodwyd gennych - a sut y cânt wybod am y broses barhaus, drwoch chi, nid Llywodraeth y DU yn unig?
English: I think what the Member is trying to relate to is the fact that, trying to develop an argument that this is our project. It isn't our project. And it's the same exactly with any other business investment that comes to Wales, whether that's private or public sector. An engagement process takes place on land availability, and that is an action that takes place on a daily, weekly basis here. I recognise the point the Member makes, in terms of, once the decision has been made by the UK Government, our engagement process has to start there, about the ability for what we think is appropriate for Wales. I have started that discussion currently, but it wouldn't be fair to say that the decision of making a prison site here in Wales was a Welsh Government one. This is an application coming from the UK Government.
Welsh: Rwy'n credu mai'r hyn y mae'r Aelod yn ceisio cyfeirio ato yw'r ffaith eich bod yn ceisio datblygu dadl mai ein prosiect ni yw hwn. Nid ein prosiect ni ydyw. Ac mae'r un peth yn wir gydag unrhyw fuddsoddiad busnes arall sy'n dod i Gymru, boed yn y sector preifat neu'r sector cyhoeddus. Mae proses ymgysylltu'n digwydd mewn perthynas â thir sydd ar gael, ac mae hwnnw'n waith sy'n digwydd yn ddyddiol, yn wythnosol yma. Rwy'n cydnabod y pwynt y mae'r Aelod yn ei wneud, yn yr ystyr y bydd yn rhaid i'n proses ymgysylltu, pan fydd y penderfyniad wedi'i wneud gan Lywodraeth y DU, ddechrau ar y pwynt hwnnw, mewn perthynas â'r gallu i wneud yr hyn y credwn sy'n briodol i Gymru. Rwyf wedi cychwyn y drafodaeth honno eisoes, ond ni fyddai'n deg dweud bod y penderfyniad i greu safle carchar yma yng Nghymru yn un a wnaed gan Lywodraeth Cymru. Cais sydd wedi dod gan Lywodraeth y DU yw hwn.
English: Diolch, Llywydd. In the summer edition of the Bevan Foundation's 'Exchange' newsletter, the director of the Bevan Foundation, in an article entitled, 'Learning to Love Local' says that the January 2017 White Paper, 'Reforming Local Government: Resilient and Renewed', once again focuses on collaboration, and she then says that, essentially, the public is being asked to agree to major changes in how local services are delivered without knowing how they can make their views heard, which clearly falls more into your portfolio. The Building Communities Trust is working with the Talwrn network of Welsh third sector organisations and the community branch of the union Unite, identifying the key factors in developing the community resilience at local level that would deal with the issue raised by the Bevan Foundation, and state that they've already engaged with Ministers and civil servants in the Welsh Government on these issues, which include looking at the Rhondda Cynon Taf public services model, working with the third sector to develop a local community well-being approach, using asset-based community development - that's people's strengths. And they go on to say that independent community organisations are well-placed to effectively deliver local services, from social care to family support and employability, and hosting these provisions by others. I wonder if you could tell us what discussions you've therefore had with this organisation and their partners, and what actions, if any, might result from that.
Welsh: Diolch, Llywydd. Yn rhifyn yr haf o gylchlythyr Sefydliad Bevan 'Exchange', mewn erthygl o'r enw 'Learning to Love Local', mae cyfarwyddwr Sefydliad Bevan yn dweud bod Papur Gwyn mis Ionawr 2017, 'Diwygio Llywodraeth Leol: Cadernid ac Adnewyddiad', yn canolbwyntio ar gydweithio unwaith eto, ac yna mae hi'n dweud bod gofyn i'r cyhoedd, yn y bôn, gytuno i newidiadau mawr yn y modd y darperir gwasanaethau lleol heb wybod sut y gallant leisio eu barn, sy'n amlwg yn ymwneud mwy â'ch portffolio chi. Mae'r Ymddiriedolaeth Adeiladu Cymunedau yn gweithio gyda rhwydwaith Talwrn o sefydliadau trydydd sector yng Nghymru a changen gymunedol undeb Unite, i nodi'r ffactorau allweddol wrth ddatblygu'r cadernid cymunedol ar lefel leol a fyddai'n mynd i'r afael â'r mater a godwyd gan Sefydliad Bevan, ac maent yn datgan eu bod eisoes wedi ymgysylltu â Gweinidogion a gweision sifil yn Llywodraeth Cymru ar y materion hyn, sy'n cynnwys edrych ar fodel gwasanaethau cyhoeddus Rhondda Cynon Taf, gan weithio gyda'r trydydd sector i ddatblygu dull llesiant cymunedol lleol, gan ddefnyddio datblygiad cymunedol sy'n seiliedig ar asedau - dyna yw cryfderau pobl. Ac maent yn mynd ymlaen i ddweud bod sefydliadau cymunedol annibynnol mewn sefyllfa dda i ddarparu gwasanaethau lleol yn effeithiol, o ofal cymdeithasol i gymorth i deuluoedd a chyflogadwyedd, a chynnal y darpariaethau hyn gan eraill. Tybed a allech ddweud wrthym pa drafodaethau a gawsoch gyda'r sefydliad hwn a'u partneriaid, a pha gamau, os o gwbl, a allai ddeillio o hynny.
English: I haven't had a conversation with those particular organisations, but I will check to see whether my team have. In terms of the first point on local government reorganisation, I think what's important is that there will be a consultation process, which Mark Drakeford will lead on, not myself, but I do have conversations with Mark about community resilience and what that looks like. I think the Member is right in terms of the fact that local need and local influence have to have a purpose in developing policy and the delivery of services. We are working in a very different financial environment as we stand, and therefore, I would encourage third sector organisations, or local organisations, to get engaged with the PSBs, and a good example the Member raised was the RCT one, the Rhondda Cynon Taf PSB. It's something that I'm engaged with very closely, in terms of delivering a children's zone within that particular area. And they're taking that as part of their well-being assessment.
Welsh: Nid wyf wedi cael sgwrs gyda'r sefydliadau penodol hynny, ond fe edrychaf i weld a yw fy nhîm wedi gwneud hynny. O ran y pwynt cyntaf ar ad-drefnu llywodraeth leol, rwy'n credu mai'r hyn sy'n bwysig yw y bydd proses ymgynghori'n digwydd, dan arweiniad Mark Drakeford, nid fi, ond rwy'n cael sgyrsiau gyda Mark am gryfder cymunedol a sut beth yw hwnnw. Rwy'n credu bod yr Aelod yn iawn ynglŷn â'r ffaith fod yn rhaid i angen lleol a dylanwad lleol fod â phwrpas wrth ddatblygu polisi a darparu gwasanaethau. Rydym yn gweithio mewn amgylchedd ariannol gwahanol iawn fel y mae pethau, ac felly, byddwn yn annog sefydliadau trydydd sector, neu sefydliadau lleol, i ymgysylltu â'r byrddau gwasanaethau cyhoeddus, ac un enghraifft dda a nododd yr Aelod oedd un Rhondda Cynon Taf, bwrdd gwasanaethau cyhoeddus Rhondda Cynon Taf. Mae'n rhywbeth rwy'n ymwneud yn agos iawn ag ef, mewn perthynas â darparu parth plant yn yr ardal benodol honno. Ac maent yn cael hynny fel rhan o'u hasesiad llesiant.
English: Of course, and I think there are a couple of points there with regard to the independence of organisations. I and the Member meet many independent organisations that do a great job on a day-to-day basis in all of our communities, but we just can't fund them all. But access to projects and access to influence is something that I would share with the Member in terms of developing well-being strategies for local authorities. It's a good idea and the Member alludes to ScoutsCymru and the Girl Guides, which all have a positive effect in general on the mental well-being of young people and their health. I support that. With regard to the very specific question, Flintshire aside, I am familiar with the issue that the Member raises and I think that for one of the Scout groups involved in that, the actual cost - and while I recognise that the Member is raising a general principle of investment - the actual cost to the Scout group is £1 per week in terms of the increase in their rateable value or the rate cost. I think it's around that number. Notwithstanding that, I do recognise that the value of Scouts and other organisations have to be considered in terms of a very challenged financial settlement for local authorities. But I do, and I think they do also, value the contribution that they make to our communities.
Welsh: Wrth gwrs, ac rwy'n credu bod cwpl o bwyntiau yno o ran annibyniaeth sefydliadau. Rwyf fi a'r Aelod yn cyfarfod â llawer o sefydliadau annibynnol sy'n gwneud gwaith gwych o ddydd i ddydd ym mhob un o'n cymunedau, ond ni allwn ariannu pob un ohonynt. Ond mae mynediad at brosiectau a mynediad at ddylanwad yn rhywbeth y byddwn yn ei rannu gyda'r Aelod o ran datblygu strategaethau llesiant ar gyfer awdurdodau lleol. Mae'n syniad da ac mae'r Aelod yn cyfeirio at ScoutsCymru a'r Geidiaid, sydd ill dau'n cael effaith gadarnhaol yn gyffredinol ar lesiant meddyliol pobl ifanc a'u hiechyd. Rwy'n cefnogi hynny. Gyda golwg ar y cwestiwn penodol iawn, a chan roi Sir y Fflint o'r neilltu, rwy'n gyfarwydd â'r mater y mae'r Aelod yn ei godi ac rwy'n credu, i un o'r grwpiau Sgowtiaid sydd ynghlwm wrth hynny, mai'r gost go iawn - ac er fy mod yn cydnabod bod yr Aelod yn sôn am egwyddor gyffredinol yn ymwneud â buddsoddi - y gost go iawn i'r grŵp Sgowtiaid mewn gwirionedd yw £1 yr wythnos o ran y cynnydd yn eu gwerth ardrethol neu gost ardrethi. Rwy'n credu ei fod oddeutu'r ffigur hwnnw. Er gwaethaf hynny, rwy'n cydnabod bod yn rhaid ystyried gwerth y Sgowtiaid a sefydliadau eraill o safbwynt setliad ariannol sy'n creu heriau mawr i awdurdodau lleol. Ond rwy'n gwerthfawrogi, ac rwy'n credu eu bod hwythau hefyd, y cyfraniad y maent yn ei wneud i'n cymunedau.
English: Finally then, in the context of helping local authorities and other public sector bodies understand how this can improve lives, it's about early intervention and prevention and saving money for the statutory services that they provide, so it's actually a part of that agenda. You might be aware, and if not, hopefully you will be now, that in Flintshire, as has happened elsewhere in Wales, there's going to be a third sector conference on 7 September, 'Co-production in Practice', looking at the principles of co-production, early intervention, adverse childhood experiences, strengthening the power of the third sector and building resilient communities. You may be already aware of it - I asked that you be invited - but, if not, and your diary is free, will you consider attending?
Welsh: Yn olaf, felly, yng nghyd-destun helpu awdurdodau lleol a chyrff eraill yn y sector cyhoeddus i ddeall sut y gall hyn wella bywydau, mae'n ymwneud ag ymyrraeth gynnar ac atal ac arbed arian i'r gwasanaethau statudol a ddarperir ganddynt, fel ei fod yn rhan o'r agenda honno mewn gwirionedd. Efallai eich bod yn ymwybodol, ac os nad ydych, gobeithio y byddwch yn awr, y bydd cynhadledd trydydd sector yn cael ei chynnal ar 7 Medi yn Sir y Fflint, fel sydd wedi digwydd mewn mannau eraill yng Nghymru, o'r enw 'Cydgynhyrchu ar Waith' i edrych ar egwyddorion cydgynhyrchu, ymyrraeth gynnar, profiadau niweidiol yn ystod plentyndod, cryfhau grym y trydydd sector ac adeiladu cymunedau cryf. Efallai eich bod eisoes yn ymwybodol ohono - gofynnais am wahoddiad i chi - ond os nad ydych, a'ch bod yn rhydd, a wnewch chi ystyried mynychu?
