English: Thank you. I'd like to thank the Minister for his statement and for providing a copy to us beforehand. I'm also grateful that he's been willing to release everything publicly. This is a lengthy report that contains a number of spending commitments that our party will have to carefully analyse, but in terms of the priorities set by Government, they do conform with what Plaid Cymru has been suggesting. I welcome many of the recommendations. Indeed, many of the steps are ones that we've already been calling for, for example to do everything possible in order to ensure that young people don't suffer any long-term impacts in terms of their education, their health and their economic situation because of a situation that they are not to blame for in any way whatsoever. The pandemic has impacted people of all ages in very cruel ways, but it's important to note that young people are missing out on a very important part of their social development because of the restrictions preventing them from socialising with peers and developing educationally. The report also notes the need to ensure that young people who are already disadvantaged because of structural unfairness do receive additional support. Could the Minister provide details as to how this support will be provided, and how you will ensure that it reaches the right people? Also, could he tell us how the Welsh Government will provide hope for the future for young people and students, in light of the fact that they have missed out on those experiences that I referred to earlier? The report notes the need to try and reduce redundancies as much as possible, as well as creating new jobs. Of course, it's impossible to know now what the scale of the problem will be, but it's crucial that programmes and plans are put in place as soon as possible, and I'm sure the Minister would agree with that. I understand the rationale of trying to add to the UK Government's Kickstart initiative, but can the Minister confirm that he intends to do this in a way that tackles the weaknesses of that initiative? For example, will he put an emphasis on providing training opportunities, supporting small businesses and providing long-term career opportunities for workers, rather than providing short-term solutions that will not lead to career development? Can the Minister also explain the figures contained within the report? It notes that £2.4 billion will be in the economic resilience fund, but only £40 million for the provision of jobs. So, can he confirm what will be used in order to keep people in work and also how the rest will be invested? One thing that was missing from the Minister's statement, but I do acknowledge that it is covered in the report, is the dire need to address the mental health crisis, which is sure to develop and get worse as time passes. The report mentioned a major programme of mental health support for children, and I welcome that, but could the Minister provide some detail on how the Government will deliver this, given the appalling failings within the mental health system that existed prior to the pandemic? How will you enhance provision available to the necessary levels as soon as possible? Another issue that needs to be prioritised is support for the arts. The comments by the Chancellor today told artists to find new jobs, and that was disgraceful and was politically motivated, in my view. I therefore welcome the £53 million fund to support this sector. It would be useful to hear the Minister's assessment in terms of how he'll ensure that these funds reach the individuals and organisations that need the money in good time. The same is true of support for universities, and I do hope that the Welsh Government is having ongoing discussions with them in order to ensure that they receive the necessary support, because our universities are crucially important in terms of the intellectual well-being of our nation. There are a number of other parts of the report that I would like to discuss in detail, for example the plans to build new homes, to establish social hubs where people can work, managing land for public benefit, public transport - some of the things that the Minister has already responded on - as well as climate change, of course, but I can't address everything in detail today. I would like to recommend that the Minister considers persuading his fellow Cabinet members to provide statements on the post-COVID plans in their individual portfolio areas, so that Members can scrutinise these in an appropriate manner. To conclude, I will ask one further question: how does the process of doing this work change the Minister's mind as to what the Welsh Government should be doing, and have important lessons been learnt on the need to create a society and an economy that is more robust for the future? Thank you.
Welsh: Hoffwn ddiolch i'r Gweinidog am ei ddatganiad ac am ddarparu copi o'r adroddiad ymlaen llaw. Dwi'n ddiolchgar hefyd iddo am gytuno i ryddhau popeth yn gyhoeddus. Mae'r adroddiad yn un swmpus, sy'n cynnwys nifer o ymrwymiadau gwario y bydd angen i'n plaid ni eu dadansoddi yn ofalus, ond o ran y blaenoriaethau mae'r Llywodraeth wedi'u gosod, maen nhw'n cyd-fynd â'r hyn mae Plaid Cymru wedi bod yn eu harddel, a dwi'n croesawu nifer fawr iawn o'r argymhellion. Yn wir, mae nifer o'r camau yma yn rhai rydym eisoes wedi galw amdanynt, er enghraifft yr angen i wneud popeth er mwyn sicrhau nad yw pobl ifanc yn ddioddef sgil-effeithiau hirdymor o ran eu haddysg, eu hiechyd a'u sefyllfa economaidd oherwydd sefyllfa lle nad oes bai arnyn nhw o gwbl. Mae'r pandemig wedi effeithio ar bobl o bob oedran mewn ffyrdd creulon, ond mae'n bwysig nad yw pobl ifanc yn colli allan ar ran hynod bwysig o'u datblygiad cymdeithasol oherwydd y cyfyngiadau sy'n eu hatal rhag gallu cymdeithasu â chyfoedion a datblygu yn addysgiadol. Mae'r adroddiad yn nodi'r angen hefyd i sicrhau bod pobl ifanc sydd eisoes dan anfantais oherwydd annhegwch strwythurol yn cael cymorth ychwanegol. A fyddai'r Gweinidog yn gallu rhoi manylion ynglŷn â sut bydd y gefnogaeth yna yn cael ei rhoi, a sut byddwch yn sicrhau ei bod yn cyrraedd y bobl iawn, os gwelwch yn dda? Hefyd, allai e ddweud sut bydd Llywodraeth Cymru yn mynd ati i gynnig gobaith am y dyfodol i bobl ifanc a myfyrwyr, yn sgil y ffaith eu bod nhw wedi colli allan ar y profiadau yna roeddwn i'n eu gosod mas? Mae'r adroddiad yn nodi'r angen i geisio lleihau diswyddiadau gymaint â phosib, yn ogystal â chreu swyddi newydd. Wrth gwrs, mae'n amhosibl gwybod ar hyn o bryd beth fydd maint y broblem, ond mae'n hanfodol bod rhaglenni a chynlluniau yn cael eu sefydlu cyn gynted â phosib, a dwi'n siŵr bydd y Gweinidog yn cytuno â hynny. Rwy'n deall y rhesymeg o geisio ychwanegu at fenter Kickstart Llywodraeth y Deyrnas Gyfunol, ond a all y Gweinidog gadarnhau ei fod yn bwriadu gwneud hyn mewn modd sy'n mynd i'r afael â gwendidau'r fenter honno? Er enghraifft, a fydd yn rhoi pwyslais ar ddarparu cyfleoedd hyfforddi, cefnogi busnesau bach a cheisio darparu gyrfa tymor hir i weithwyr, yn hytrach na dim ond ateb tymor byr fydd ddim yn arwain at ddatblygiad gyrfaol? A all y Gweinidog hefyd roi esboniad am y ffigurau sydd yn yr adroddiad yn hyn o beth? Mae'n nodi y bydd £2.4 biliwn i'r gronfa cadernid economaidd, ond dim ond £40 miliwn ar gyfer darparu swyddi. A all e gadarnhau faint o'r gronfa yna fydd yn cael ei ddefnyddio er mwyn cadw pobl mewn gwaith a hefyd sut bydd gweddill yr arian yn cael ei fuddsoddi, os gwelwch yn dda? Un peth oedd ar goll yn natganiad y Gweinidog, ond rwy'n cydnabod ei fod yn cael ystyriaeth yn yr adroddiad, yw'r angen dirfawr i fynd i'r afael â'r argyfwng iechyd meddwl sydd yn siŵr o ddatblygu a gwaethygu fel y mae amser yn mynd yn ei flaen. Mae'r adroddiad yn sôn am raglen fawr o gymorth iechyd meddwl i blant, ac rwy'n croesawu hynny, ond a all y Gweinidog roi rhywfaint o fanylion ynglŷn â sut bydd y Llywodraeth yn cyflawni hyn, o ystyried y methiannau enbyd o fewn y system gymorth iechyd meddwl oedd yn bodoli cyn y pandemig ei hunan? Sut fyddwch chi'n cynyddu'r ddarpariaeth sydd ar gael i'r lefel angenrheidiol mor gyflym? Mater arall sydd angen ei flaenoriaethu ydy cymorth i'r celfyddydau. Roedd sylwadau'r Canghellor heddiw yn dweud wrth artistiaid i ganfod swyddi eraill yn warthus, a gyda chymhelliant gwleidyddol, yn fy marn i. Rwy'n croesawu, felly, y gronfa o £53 miliwn i gefnogi'r sector, a byddai'n ddefnyddiol clywed asesiad y Gweinidog ynghylch sut y bydd yn sicrhau bod yr arian yma yn cyrraedd y bobl a'r sefydliadau sydd ei angen mewn da bryd. Mae'r un peth yn wir am gefnogaeth i brifysgolion, ac rwy'n gobeithio bod Llywodraeth Cymru yn cynnal trafodaethau parhaus â nhw er mwyn sicrhau eu bod yn derbyn y gefnogaeth angenrheidiol, oherwydd mae ein prifysgolion yn hanfodol bwysig o ran lles deallusol ein cenedl. Nawr, mae nifer o rannau eraill o'r adroddiad yr hoffwn i siarad amdanyn nhw mewn manylder, er enghraifft y cynlluniau i adeiladu tai, sefydlu hubs cymdeithasol i bobl weithio ynddynt, rheoli tir er budd cymunedol, trafnidiaeth gyhoeddus - rhai o'r pethau mae'r Gweinidog wedi ymateb yn eu cylch yn barod - a newid hinsawdd, ond does dim modd siarad mewn manylder am bopeth. Hoffwn argymell, felly, i'r Gweinidog ystyried perswadio ei gyd-aelodau Cabinet i roi datganiad ynghylch y cynlluniau ôl-COVID yma yn eu meysydd unigol, er mwyn galluogi Aelodau i graffu ar y cynlluniau eang yma mewn modd priodol. Ac i gloi, mi wnaf i holi un cwestiwn arall: sut mae'r broses o wneud y gwaith yma wedi newid meddwl y Gweinidog ynghylch beth ddylai Llywodraeth Cymru fod yn ei wneud? Ac a oes gwersi pwysig wedi eu dysgu ynghylch yr angen i greu cymdeithas ac economi ar seiliau mwy gwydn ar gyfer y dyfodol? Diolch yn fawr.
