English: Thank you for that supplementary question. The Bill is indeed misnamed. It is really a 'sack the nurses Bill', it's a 'sack the ambulance worker Bill', or an 'abolition of the right to strike Bill'. It removes the sacrosanct protections to workers and trade unions that were enshrined in legislation in 1906, legislation that was introduced after the Taff Vale case in 1900 that arose from a dispute that occurred, in fact, in my constituency in Pontypridd. It led to the Trade Disputes Act 1906, which established fundamental principles. What the Tory Government is doing would take workers' rights back 120 years. What I can say on behalf of the Welsh Government is that there's been a total lack of engagement over this legislation with the Welsh Government. The first notice we had was last Thursday, just after the UK Government's press notice. The first correspondence I had was being copied into a letter to the First Minister from Minister Hollinrake on 10 January. That was yesterday. This isn't the way to resolve disputes. This lack of engagement is really just unacceptable. The legislation is wholly unnecessary. Where there are emergency issues that need to be put in place, they have always been put in place by the trade unions. Some of you may have seen the other day the coverage of a GMB picket line in Wales - and I'm a GMB member - of ambulance workers. The moment a message came that there was an emergency call-out, they immediately left the picket line; they went and they did that particular work. That has always been the case. It is a fundamental attack on freedom, and as Welsh Government, we will give it no credence or support. The legislation, also, in my view, is unworkable. It has not worked in other countries. It will not work here. It is an attempt to avoid dealing with the real issue in this country, and that is to provide proper funding to public sector workers in England and to devolved Governments, to enable our public sector workers to be properly paid. I say it is an act of desperation from a Government that is out of touch and has lost control.
Welsh: Diolch am y cwestiwn atodol hwnnw. Mae'r Bil wedi ei gam-enwi'n wir. Mewn gwirionedd, 'Bil diswyddo'r nyrsys' ydyw, 'Bil diswyddo'r gweithiwr ambiwlans' ydyw, neu 'Fil diddymu'r hawl i streicio'. Mae'n dileu'r amddiffyniadau cysegredig i weithwyr ac undebau llafur a gafodd eu hymgorffori mewn deddfwriaeth ym 1906, deddfwriaeth a gyflwynwyd wedi achos Cwm Taf ym 1900, a gododd yn sgil anghydfod a ddigwyddodd yn fy etholaeth i ym Mhontypridd mewn gwirionedd. Arweiniodd at Ddeddf Anghydfodau Undebol 1906, a sefydlodd egwyddorion sylfaenol. Byddai'r hyn y mae'r Llywodraeth Dorïaidd yn ei wneud yn mynd â hawliau gweithwyr nôl i'r hyn oeddent 120 o flynyddoedd yn ôl. Yr hyn y gallaf ei ddweud ar ran Llywodraeth Cymru yw bod yna ddiffyg ymgysylltiad llwyr wedi bod gyda Llywodraeth Cymru ynghylch y ddeddfwriaeth hon. Daeth yr hysbysiad cyntaf ddydd Iau diwethaf, ychydig wedi datganiad i'r wasg Llywodraeth y DU. Yr ohebiaeth gyntaf a gefais oedd cael fy nghopïo i mewn i lythyr at Brif Weinidog Cymru gan y Gweinidog Hollinrake ar 10 Ionawr. Ddoe oedd hynny. Nid dyma'r ffordd i ddatrys anghydfodau. Mae'r diffyg ymgysylltiad hwn yn gwbl annerbyniol. Mae'r ddeddfwriaeth yn gwbl ddiangen. Lle ceir materion brys sydd angen eu gweithredu, mae'r undebau llafur bob amser wedi eu gweithredu. Efallai y bydd rhai ohonoch wedi gweld yr eitemau y diwrnod o'r blaen am linell biced GMB yng Nghymru - ac rwy'n aelod o GMB - o weithwyr ambiwlans. Y foment y daeth neges fod yna alwad frys, fe adawsant y llinell biced yn syth; fe aethant ac fe wnaethant y gwaith penodol hwnnw. Mae hynny bob amser wedi digwydd. Mae'r ddeddfwriaeth yn ymosodiad sylfaenol ar ryddid, ac fel Llywodraeth Cymru, ni fyddwn yn rhoi unrhyw hygrededd na chefnogaeth iddi. Mae'r ddeddfwriaeth yn anymarferol hefyd yn fy marn i. Nid yw wedi gweithio mewn gwledydd eraill. Ni fydd yn gweithio yma. Ymgais ydyw i osgoi ymdrin â'r broblem go iawn yn y wlad hon, sef darparu cyllid priodol i weithwyr y sector cyhoeddus yn Lloegr ac i Lywodraethau datganoledig, er mwyn galluogi ein gweithwyr sector cyhoeddus i gael eu talu'n briodol. Yn fy marn i, mae'n weithred o anobaith gan Lywodraeth sydd wedi colli gafael ac wedi colli rheolaeth.
