English: Thank you, Deputy Presiding Officer. As you said, I rise to contribute as Chair of the Economy, Trade, and Rural Affairs Committee. Now, the Economy, Trade, and Rural Affairs Committee did consider this memorandum on 16 September 2021, with a reporting deadline of last Thursday. I note that the report of the Legislation, Justice and Constitution Committee on this memorandum has made nine recommendations to the Welsh Government on matters relating to powers and scope - of course, our committee's work and scrutiny was confined to matters of policy alone. Now, in our report, we did ask the Minister for Education and Welsh Language to provide further information to all Members in advance of today's debate. Given the time restraints, we also, as the Minister said, wrote to him last Tuesday to draw his attention to this request. In particular, we asked for an assessment of the impact of the Bill on regulated professions in Wales; we asked for an outline of the impact on regulated professional qualifications in Wales for the purposes of ascertaining demand levels for certain professions; we asked for an update on discussions with the UK Government on its request for clarification of the scope of the Bill and its application to certain sectors, such as further education; we also asked for details of any discussions with the UK Government regarding any amendments to the Bill that Welsh Government has requested; we asked for an update on discussions the Welsh Government has had with affected regulators in Wales, including public sector organisations; and we also asked for a description of the relationship to, and combined effect of, the Bill with other relevant UK arrangements, such as the United Kingdom Internal Market Act 2020, the new immigration system and future international agreements. Now, the committee's report stated that in advance of that information being provided, we were not in a position to make a recommendation to the Senedd as to whether or not to approve the legislative consent motion before us today. I can confirm that the Minister has sent me a response to the points that we made as a committee, and I thank the Minister for providing that response in a letter received yesterday afternoon. This information has been circulated to committee members, but as Members will acknowledge, we haven't had time to consider the information provided by the Minister to formulate a response as a committee. So, even though I'm grateful to the Minister for providing that additional information to the committee, considering the fact that we haven't had an opportunity to consider the information as a committee, we're not yet in a situation to reject or approve this LCM before us today. Thank you very much, Dirprwy Lywydd.
Welsh: Diolch, Dirprwy Lywydd. Fel y dywedoch chi, dwi'n codi i gyfrannu at y ddadl hon fel Cadeirydd Pwyllgor yr Economi, Masnach a Materion Gwledig. Bu Pwyllgor yr Economi, Masnach a Materion Gwledig yn trafod y memorandwm hwn ar 16 Medi eleni, a'r terfyn amser ar gyfer cyflwyno adroddiad oedd dydd Iau diwethaf. Dwi'n nodi bod adroddiad y Pwyllgor Deddfwriaeth, Cyfiawnder a'r Cyfansoddiad ar y memorandwm hwn yn cynnwys naw argymhelliad i Lywodraeth Cymru ar faterion sy'n ymwneud â phwerau a chwmpas - wrth gwrs, roedd gwaith craffu a sgrwtineiddio ein pwyllgor ni wedi'i gyfyngu i faterion polisi yn unig. Nawr, yn ein hadroddiad, fe wnaethon ni ofyn i Weinidog y Gymraeg ac Addysg roi rhagor o wybodaeth i'r holl Aelodau cyn y ddadl heddiw. Gan fod amser yn brin, fe wnaethon ni, fel dywedodd y Gweinidog yn gynharach, ysgrifennu ato fe ddydd Mawrth diwethaf i dynnu ei sylw at y cais hwn. Yn benodol, gofynnon ni am asesiad o effaith y Bil ar broffesiynau rheoleiddiedig yng Nghymru; fe ofynnon ni am amlinelliad o'r effaith ar gymwysterau proffesiynol rheoleiddiedig yng Nghymru er mwyn gweld beth yw lefel y galw am rai proffesiynau penodol; fe ofynnon ni am y wybodaeth ddiweddaraf am drafodaethau â Llywodraeth y Deyrnas Unedig ynglŷn â'r cais am eglurhad ynghylch cwmpas y Bil a sut y bydd yn cael ei gymhwyso mewn sectorau penodol, fel addysg bellach; fe ofynnon ni am fanylion am unrhyw drafodaethau â Llywodraeth y Deyrnas Unedig ynghylch unrhyw newidiadau i'r Bil y mae Llywodraeth Cymru wedi gofyn amdanynt; fe ofynnon ni am y wybodaeth ddiweddaraf am drafodaethau Llywodraeth Cymru â'r rheoleiddwyr yng Nghymru y bydd y Bil yn effeithio arnyn nhw, gan gynnwys cyrff sector cyhoeddus; a fe ofynnon ni am ddisgrifiad o'r cysylltiad rhwng y Bil â threfniadau perthnasol eraill yn y Deyrnas Unedig, fel Deddf Marchnad Fewnol y Deyrnas Unedig 2020, y system newydd ar gyfer mewnfudwyr a chytundebau rhyngwladol yn y dyfodol, ac effaith gyfunol y rhain. Nawr, mae adroddiad y pwyllgor yn nodi ein bod ni ddim mewn sefyllfa, cyn cael yr wybodaeth honno, i wneud argymhelliad i'r Senedd ynghylch a ddylid cymeradwyo'r cynnig cydsyniad deddfwriaethol sydd ger ein bron ni heddiw ai peidio. Gallaf gadarnhau bod y Gweinidog wedi danfon ymateb i'r pwyntiau mae'r pwyllgor wedi eu gwneud, a dwi'n ddiolchgar am ei lythyr ataf a ddaeth i law prynhawn ddoe. Dosbarthwyd yr wybodaeth yma i aelodau'r pwyllgor, ond fel y bydd Aelodau yn cydnabod, dwi'n siŵr, dydyn ni ddim wedi cael amser i ystyried gwybodaeth y Gweinidog a datblygu ymateb fel pwyllgor. Felly, er fy mod yn ddiolchgar i'r Gweinidog am ddarparu'r wybodaeth ychwanegol yma i'r pwyllgor, o gofio ein bod ni ddim wedi cael cyfle i ystyried yr wybodaeth fel pwyllgor, dydyn ni ddim felly mewn sefyllfa i gymeradwyo na gwrthod yr LCM ger ein bron ni heddiw. Diolch, Dirprwy Lywydd.
