English: Can I call for a single statement, from the Minister for Economy, ideally with the Deputy Minister for Climate Change, on support for businesses affected by the closure of Menai suspension bridge? Last Friday, I met online with the local MP, Virginia Crosbie, my fellow North Wales MS Sam Rowlands, and Menai Bridge businesses concerned about the impact on them of the Welsh Government's closure of the bridge. Businesses told us they feel they're not being listened to. They said the whole public perception that people cannot get on and off the island has also affected Beaumaris, when the only real issue is in the morning and the evening, and they ask whether anyone can do anything about getting some work started on the bridge. It's already been closed for more than a month, but nobody's seen anyone working on it, and they fear the bridge will be closed for a long time, which would devastate them. They said that if you go two miles up the road, there are still issues - they need to get the traffic sorted, they need free parking, business rates relief, and banners on the A55, signposting people to the centres such as Menai Bridge and Beaumaris, advertising that they're well and truly open. They complained about hysterics on social media affecting both locals and tourists on which they rely, and they need Visit Wales to be pushing the message that they are open. They said, 'We just need hope, and to promote that our island is open, where our tourism trade is being decimated and our supply chains affected.' I urge the relevant Ministers to come forward with a statement accordingly where these many, many businesses - excellent businesses - providing key services to local people are at great risk. Diolch.
Welsh: A gaf i alw am un datganiad, gan Weinidog yr Economi, yn ddelfrydol gyda'r Dirprwy Weinidog Newid Hinsawdd, ar gefnogaeth i fusnesau sydd wedi'u heffeithio gan gau pont grog Menai? Ddydd Gwener diwethaf, fe gwrddais i ar-lein â'r AS lleol, Virginia Crosbie, fy nghyd-Aelod AS y gogledd Sam Rowlands, a busnesau Porthaethwy sy'n bryderus am yr effaith arnyn nhw ar ôl i Lywodraeth Cymru ei chau. Dywedodd busnesau wrthym ni eu bod yn teimlo nad oes neb yn gwrando arnyn nhw. Dywedon nhw fod yr holl ganfyddiad cyhoeddus na all pobl fynd ar yr ynys nac oddi arni ychwaith wedi effeithio ar Fiwmares, pan fo'r unig wir broblem yn y bore a'r hwyr, ac maen nhw'n gofyn a all unrhyw un wneud unrhyw beth o ran cael gwaith wedi'i gychwyn ar y bont. Mae hi eisoes wedi bod ar gau am fwy na mis, ond nid oes neb wedi gweld unrhyw un yn gweithio arni, ac maen nhw'n ofni y bydd y bont ar gau am gyfnod hir, a fyddai'n eu difetha. Dywedon nhw, os ewch chi ddwy filltir i fyny'r ffordd, fod problemau o hyd - mae angen iddyn nhw gael trefn ar y traffig, mae angen parcio am ddim arnyn nhw, rhyddhad trethi busnes, a baneri ar yr A55, yn cyfeirio pobl i'r canolfannau fel Porthaethwy a Biwmares, yn hysbysebu eu bod nhw ar agor. Roedden nhw'n cwyno am strancio ar y cyfryngau cymdeithasol sy'n effeithio ar bobl leol a thwristiaid maen nhw'n dibynnu arnyn nhw, ac maen nhw angen i Croeso Cymru fod yn gwthio'r neges eu bod ar agor. Dywedon nhw, 'Y cyfan sydd ei angen arnom ni yw gobaith, ac i hyrwyddo bod ein hynys ar agor, lle mae ein masnach dwristiaeth yn cael ei dinistrio a'n cadwyni cyflenwi yn cael eu heffeithio.' Rwy'n annog y Gweinidogion perthnasol i gyflwyno datganiad yn unol â lle mae'r busnesau niferus hyn - busnesau rhagorol - sy'n darparu gwasanaethau allweddol i bobl leol mewn perygl mawr. Diolch.
