English: Cabinet Secretary, listening to Plaid Cymru today reminded me of an old foundry workers' union representative who, when his workers had been out on strike, went into negotiations. He came out afterwards and said to his members, a mass meeting of the members - he said, 'Well,' he said, 'brothers and sisters,' he said, 'I've negotiated an extra week's holiday pay,' he said, 'I've negotiated a 10 per cent increase, and not only that,' he said, 'you are only going to have to work on a Friday.' And the bloke at the back shouts out, 'What? Every Friday?' I can only presume that that was a member of Plaid Cymru because, listening to their comments today, it seems to me that there is not a single thing about this whole package that is of any benefit. Well, I can tell you that, certainly, in my constituency, having Transport for Wales, first of all, coming into Pontypridd, is going to significantly regenerate that town. It's already having that effect: 500 to 1,000 jobs. Having the new rolling stock maintenance within my constituency, in Taff's Well, creating several hundred jobs, is also something that is very much welcomed by the people of Pontypridd and Taff Ely. And the fact that we now have in Coleg y Cymoedd some of the best training programmes, and I'm glad to see that you attended Nantgarw in order to make the launch, is again very significant - very significant because, of course, some of us will remember that that was the site of the former Nantgarw colliery and coke works; what a regenerated area. Also there's the fact that, now, of course, the Treforest industrial estate station is going to move, and I'd like you perhaps to comment a little bit about the precise timetable and timescale for that move closer towards Nantgarw. Could you also perhaps just outline the benefits that are going to be there, particularly for the 16 to 18-year-olds, in terms of the ticket regime, because that's been something of considerable benefit, and also perhaps at some stage whether you are considering the extension - as I declare an interest here - in the concessionary travel card for over-60s to the rail network as well? Can I also ask you just for confirmation that there will definitely be, in accordance with the discussions with ASLEF and the RMT trade unions, guards on the trains? Because people want guards on the trains. They see them as being something that gives them security, gives them comfort and confidence in the rail network, and it's something that's been lost in other areas. And can I then ask you one very final point? And that is, of course, that most of these trains will be up and running by 2023. We need to start preparing now for the next phase, and you'll know I've raised with you, of course, the issue of the railway line going up to Llantrisant. And, of course, I had a tweet earlier today saying that Nessie has at long last been sighted heading up towards the A470, and I've tweeted back saying, well, we hope Nessie's only stopping off and is now going to be heading up towards Llantrisant where we're all waiting to see her there.
Welsh: Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet, mae gwrando ar Blaid Cymru heddiw wedi fy atgoffa o hen gynrychiolydd undeb gweithwyr ffowndri a aeth, pan oedd ei weithwyr wedi bod allan ar streic, i drafodaethau. Daeth allan wedyn a dweud wrth ei aelodau, cyfarfod torfol o'r aelodau - dywedodd, 'Wel,' dywedodd, 'frodyr a chwiorydd,' meddai, 'rwyf wedi negodi wythnos ychwanegol o dâl gwyliau,' dywedodd, 'rwyf wedi negodi cynnydd 10 y cant, ac nid yn unig hynny', meddai , 'dim ond ar ddydd Gwener y byddwch yn gorfod gweithio.' Ac mae'r dyn yn y cefn yn gweiddi, 'Beth? Bob dydd Gwener?' Mae'n rhaid imi dybio mai aelod o Blaid Cymru oedd hwnnw oherwydd, o wrando ar eu sylwadau heddiw, mae'n ymddangos i mi nad oes dim byd am yr holl becyn hwn sydd o unrhyw fudd. Wel, gallaf ddweud wrthych chi, yn sicr, yn fy etholaeth i, bod Trafnidiaeth Cymru, yn gyntaf oll, yn dod i Bontypridd, yn mynd i adfywio'r dref honno yn sylweddol. Mae eisoes yn cael yr effaith honno: 500 i 1,000 o swyddi. Mae'r gwaith cynnal a chadw cerbydau newydd yn fy etholaeth i, yn Ffynnon Taf, sy'n creu rhai cannoedd o swyddi, hefyd yn rhywbeth y mae croeso mawr iddo gan bobl Pontypridd a Thaf Elái. Ac mae'r ffaith bod gennym ni bellach yng Ngholeg y Cymoedd rai o'r rhaglenni hyfforddiant gorau, ac rwy'n falch o weld eich bod wedi dod i Nantgarw i'r lansiad, eto yn bwysig iawn - pwysig iawn oherwydd, wrth gwrs, bydd rhai ohonom yn cofio mai dyna oedd safle hen waith glo a golosg Nantgarw; am ardal wedi'i hadfywio. Hefyd mae'r ffaith, nawr, wrth gwrs, bod gorsaf Ystad Ddiwydiannol Trefforest yn mynd i symud, a hoffwn ichi efallai roi rhyw sylw am yr union amserlen a'r raddfa amser ar gyfer y symudiad hwnnw yn agosach at Nantgarw. A allech chi hefyd efallai amlinellu'r manteision a fydd yno, yn enwedig i bobl ifanc 16 i 18 oed, o ran y gyfundrefn tocynnau, oherwydd mae hynny wedi bod o fudd sylweddol, a hefyd efallai rywbryd a ydych yn ystyried ymestyn - wrth imi ddatgan buddiant yma - y cerdyn teithio rhatach i bobl dros 60 oed i'r rhwydwaith rheilffyrdd yn ogystal? A gaf i hefyd ofyn ichi am gadarnhad y bydd yn bendant, yn unol â thrafodaethau ag ASLEF a'r undebau llafur RMT, gardiaid ar y trenau? Mae pobl yn hoff o weld gardiaid ar y trenau. Maent yn eu gweld yn rhywbeth sy'n eu cadw'n ddiogel, yn rhoi cysur a hyder iddynt yn y rhwydwaith rheilffyrdd, ac mae'n rhywbeth sydd wedi'i golli mewn meysydd eraill. Ac a gaf i wedyn ofyn ichi am un pwynt olaf cyn cloi? Sef, wrth gwrs, y bydd y rhan fwyaf o'r trenau hyn yn weithredol erbyn 2023. Mae angen inni ddechrau paratoi nawr am y cyfnod nesaf, a byddwch yn gwybod fy mod wedi sôn wrthych, wrth gwrs, am fater y rheilffordd yn mynd i fyny i Lantrisant. Ac, wrth gwrs, cefais neges drydar yn gynharach heddiw yn dweud bod Nessie o'r diwedd wedi cael ei gweld ar ei ffordd i fyny tuag at yr A470, ac rwyf wedi trydar yn ôl yn dweud, wel, rydym yn gobeithio mai dim ond aros ennyd y mae Nessie ac y bydd yn awr yn mynd i fyny tuag at Lantrisant lle'r ydym i gyd yn aros i'w gweld hi yno.
