English: Right. There are two questions there, essentially. On scrutiny, first of all. I think the six leaders in north Wales are highly aware that they are accountable to their members within their own counties, and clearly that's a good thing. And therefore, a decision was made at a very early stage that we wouldn't establish a joint scrutiny committee and that every county would scrutinise themselves. Now, what we've done is to arrange that a report is circulated to the six counties' scrutiny committees. It's quite a lot of work, but it is an excellent opportunity to share information with ordinary members, which is extremely important, and I do think that ordinary members appreciate that opportunity to receive that information and to have a dialogue on issues as they see them. I think that's a hugely important element. With a joint committee, you're moving away from that element of local accountability to a regional accountability structure. You're creating a new body that isn't as accountable as the scrutiny committees that we have within our own counties; I think that's the strong feeling within north Wales at the moment. That issue leads me to the corporate joint committees that you mentioned. There - . How shall I put this? There has been some discussion on these corporate joint committees over the past year or two, and there has been disagreement on the mandatory elements within them. When we went out to our ordinary members in the six councils to consult on the regulations - not on the establishment of the joint committees, because they exist already - the response of members was very strong in expressing concerns about that loss of accountability and the creation of a regional body that would create another kind of local authority, or another layer of bureaucracy. So, that view was expressed very clearly by our members, and was expressed more strongly by the members than it had been by the leaders, I think. Having said that, joint committees do exist and will exist within legislation. Therefore, we have started that discussion amongst ourselves as leaders and also among our monitoring officials, in terms of how we can make use of this model without undermining the good work that's already been done over a number of years in establishing the agreement between the six authorities. That was no easy task; it is quite a complex agreement, and there are elements of it that don't perhaps quite fit into the joint committee model. So, we're at the beginning of the journey at the moment - we're at the very early stages, if truth be told. We expect to have a meeting over the next few weeks with our chief executives and our monitoring officials in order to understand what the issues arising from the use of joint committees are and how we address those. We've had a meeting with the Minister and officials, and we will be having discussions with them regularly, I think, as we develop our ideas on the use of the corporate joint committees, but that is a process that will take some time, I think. We'll need to give it some thought, certainly, and we're not quite sure yet what our destination will be at the end of that journey.
Welsh: Iawn. Mae yna ddau gwestiwn yn y fanna. Craffu, i ddechrau. Dwi'n credu bod y chwe arweinydd yn y gogledd yn ymwybodol iawn eu bod nhw'n atebol i'w aelodau yn eu siroedd eu hunain, felly, sydd yn amlwg yn beth da. Ac felly, fe wnaed penderfyniad yn gynnar iawn, dwi'n credu, na fydden ni'n sefydlu pwyllgor craffu ar y cyd ac y byddai pob un sir, mewn difrif, yn craffu ei hun. Rŵan, beth rydyn ni wedi ei wneud ydy ein bod ni'n trefnu bod yna adroddiad yn mynd i gylchoedd pwyllgorau craffu'r chwe sir. Mae'n dipyn o waith, ond mae o'n gyfle gwych iawn, iawn i rannu gwybodaeth gydag aelodau cyffredin, sydd yn hynod o bwysig, a dwi'n meddwl bod aelodau cyffredin yn gwerthfawrogi'r cyfle i dderbyn y wybodaeth yna ac i gael deialog ynglŷn â materion fel maen nhw'n eu gweld nhw. Dwi'n meddwl bod hwnna yn elfen bwysig iawn, iawn. Pwyllgor craffu ar y cyd - rydych chi'n symud eto oddi wrth yr elfen atebolrwydd lleol i rywbeth rhanbarthol, ac yn creu rhyw gorff arall sydd, ie, ddim mor atebol â'r pwyllgorau craffu rydyn ni'n eu cael yn ein siroedd. Felly, dyna yw'r teimlad yn eithaf cryf ar hyn o bryd yn y gogledd. Ar y pwnc yna, felly, mae'n fy arwain at y cydbwyllgorau corfforedig. Mi ydyn ni - . Wel, mae yna gryn - beth ddywedwn i - drafodaeth wedi bod ar y cydbwyllgorau yma yn ystod y flwyddyn neu ddwy ddiwethaf, ac mae yna anghytundeb wedi bod ynglŷn â'r elfennau mandadol ynddyn nhw. Dwi'n credu pan ddaru ni fynd allan i'n haelodau cyffredin yn y chwe chyngor i ymgynghori ar y rheoliadau, mewn difrif - nid ar sefydlu'r cydbwyllgor ei hun, achos mi oedd hynny'n bodoli yn barod, felly - mi oedd ymateb yr aelodau cyffredin yn gryf iawn, iawn yn mynegi eu pryderon ynglŷn â'r colli atebolrwydd yma a chreu rhyw gorff rhanbarthol oedd yn creu ryw fath - wel, mi ddefnyddiaf i - o gyngor sir arall, neu ryw haen arall o fiwrocratiaeth. Felly, mi oedd y farn yna yn berffaith glir yn dod o'r aelodau, ac yn gryfach, yn wir, nag yr oedd wedi dod allan o'r arweinwyr, dwi'n credu, felly. Wedi dweud hynny, mae cydbwyllgorau yn bodoli, yn mynd i fodoli o dan ddeddfwriaeth. Felly, mi ydyn ni wedi dechrau ar y drafodaeth honno ymysg ein gilydd - ymysg yr arweinwyr, a hefyd ymysg ein swyddogion monitro - ar sut rydyn ni'n gallu defnyddio'r model yma heb danseilio'r gwaith da sydd wedi'i wneud yn barod dros nifer o flynyddoedd yn sefydlu'r cytundeb rhwng y chwech awdurdod. Nid gwaith hawdd oedd hwnnw; mae o'n gytundeb go gymhleth, a dweud y gwir, ac mae yna elfennau ohono fo sydd ddim cweit yn ffitio mewn i'r model cydbwyllgor. Felly, ar hyn o bryd, dechrau ar y daith ydyn ni - dechrau cynnar iawn, iawn, a dweud y gwir. Rydyn ni'n disgwyl cael cyfarfod yn ystod yr wythnos nesaf yma gyda'n prif weithredwyr a'n swyddogion monitro i ddeall beth yw'r issues, fel petai, sy'n codi o'r defnydd o'r cydbwyllgor a sut rydyn ni'n cyfarch hynny. Rydyn ni wedi cael cyfarfod â'r Gweinidog a'i swyddogion, ac mi fyddwn ni'n cyd-drafod â nhw yn gyson, felly, dwi'n credu, wrth inni ddatblygu'n syniadau ynglŷn â'r defnydd o'r cydbwyllgorau. Ond mae honno'n broses sydd yn mynd i gymryd tipyn bach o amser, dwi'n meddwl - tipyn bach o waith meddwl arni hi - a dydyn ni ddim yn siŵr eto i ble y byddwn ni'n cyrraedd ar ben y daith honno, felly.
