English: As you state, small and rural schools can provide real academic, cultural and social benefits. When I called on the previous Welsh Government to respond to concerns that Flintshire County Council was using old and inaccurate data and acting in breach of the school organisation code in respect of a number of proposed school closures there, including small and rural schools, Ysgol Llanfynydd County Primary School and Ysgol Maes Edwin in Flint mountain, referred to earlier, your predecessor said, 'I can't commentin terms of the school organisation code and the guidance, because, of course, this may come before Welsh Ministers.' Of course, in the context of small and rural schools, that hadn't been the case since 2013. Now, although councillors must only consider material evidence relevant to the school organisation code and the accuracy of the data used by the council cabinet as the basis of their recommended decision to close schools, when these closures came to council, the highly political comments by the council leader were not material to the matters that the council must consider, and this political point scoring on both occasions raised serious concerns about the basis on which his cabinet took their decisions. You state you're not going to revisit decisions previously made. Does that therefore mean that you're bolting the stable door after the previous Welsh Government and current First Minister allowed the horses to bolt, or, in circumstances such as this, will you reconsider the evidence used to justify the closure to members and the public, in the context of what the school organisation code actually required?
Welsh: Fel y dywedwch, gall ysgolion bach ac ysgolion gwledig ddarparu manteision academaidd, diwylliannol a chymdeithasol gwirioneddol. Pan alwais ar Lywodraeth flaenorol Cymru i ymateb i bryderon bod Cyngor Sir y Fflint yn defnyddio data hen ac anghywir ac yn gweithredu'n groes i'r cod trefniadaeth ysgolion ynglŷn â chynigion i gau nifer o ysgolion yno, gan gynnwys ysgolion bach ac ysgolion gwledig, Ysgol Gynradd Sirol Llanfynydd ac Ysgol Maes Edwin ar fynydd y Fflint, y cyfeiriwyd ati'n gynharach, dywedodd eich rhagflaenydd, ni allaf roi sylwadau o ran y cod trefniadaeth ysgolion a'r canllawiau, oherwydd, wrth gwrs, gallai hyn ddod gerbron Gweinidogion Cymru. Wrth gwrs, yng nghyd-destun ysgolion bach ac ysgolion gwledig, nid oedd hynny wedi bod yn wir ers 2013. Nawr, er bod yn rhaid i gynghorwyr gadw at dystiolaeth faterol sy'n berthnasol i'r cod trefniadaeth ysgolion a chywirdeb y data a ddefnyddir gan gabinet y cyngor fel sail i'w penderfyniad i argymell cau ysgolion, pan ddaeth y cynigion cau hyn i'r cyngor, nid oedd y sylwadau hynod wleidyddol gan arweinydd y cyngor yn berthnasol i'r materion y mae'n rhaid i'r cyngor eu hystyried, ac roedd yr arfer hwn o sgorio pwyntiau gwleidyddol ar y ddau achlysur yn codi pryderon difrifol ynghylch ar ba sail y gwnaeth ei gabinet eu penderfyniadau. Rydych yn dweud nad ydych yn mynd i edrych eto ar benderfyniadau a wnaethpwyd yn flaenorol. A yw hynny, felly, yn golygu eich bod yn bolltio drws y stabl ar ôl i Lywodraeth flaenorol Cymru a'r Prif Weinidog presennol adael i'r ceffylau ddianc, neu, o dan amgylchiadau fel hyn, a wnewch chi ailystyried y dystiolaeth a ddefnyddiwyd i gyfiawnhau cau i aelodau ac i'r cyhoedd, yng nghyd-destun yr hyn a oedd yn ofynnol gan y cod trefniadaeth ysgolion mewn gwirionedd?
