English: Minister, following on from what Gareth just said, he's outlined the extreme of what's going on: it's the end of September and we're already seeing school closures and we're seeing whole year groups going off. Another reason for that has been staff shortages, with people going off with COVID, so I'd like to know what your contingency plans are that you've got in place to help those schools affected by that particular problem. One of the issues also with people missing out on education at the moment is the lack of clarity, as I have raised with you in committee - the lack of clarity that parents have about what to do if they have a COVID case within their families. You say it's very clear, the Government advice, that, if someone has COVID the rest of the family still go to work, school and whatever else, but headteachers are under enormous pressure and coming to me from all angles saying that parents are confused about what's going on, pupils are confused. They're upset by the fact that people are coming into school when they know that someone else in their family has COVID, and there are concerns around that. I think the three-week cycle is too long, really, to react to what's going on, with COVID numbers rising considerably at the moment. So, how are you going to relook at that and look at the advice? As the Minister for mental health said earlier, I know it's a juggling act, and getting it right is so important. We want children in school, but we also want them to be safe. I know you're under a lot of pressure, but I'd like you to just quickly comment on that. Also - just quickly, Presiding Officer - we're at a point now where children between - young people, sorry, between - 10 and 19 years old are the biggest group presenting with COVID at the moment, with around 2,000 per 100,000 cases now, and that's just the average; in some parts of Wales, that's increasing every day. So, the roll-out of this 12 to 16-year-old vaccine is vital, and I know its delivery is starting on 4 October, but what plans do you have in place to really speed up that delivery of it? Thank you.
Welsh: Weinidog, yn dilyn yr hyn a ddywedodd Gareth, mae wedi amlinellu eithafion yr hyn sy'n digwydd: mae'n ddiwedd mis Medi ac rydym eisoes yn gweld ysgolion yn cau a grwpiau blwyddyn cyfan yn aros gartref. Rheswm arall am hynny yw prinder staff, gyda phobl yn aros gartref gyda COVID, felly hoffwn wybod pa gynlluniau wrth gefn sydd gennych ar waith i helpu'r ysgolion y mae'r broblem honno'n effeithio arnynt. Un o'r problemau hefyd gyda phobl yn colli addysg ar hyn o bryd yw'r diffyg eglurder, fel y crybwyllais wrthych mewn pwyllgor - y diffyg eglurder i rieni ynghylch beth i'w wneud os oes ganddynt achos o COVID yn eu teuluoedd. Rydych yn dweud bod cyngor y Llywodraeth yn eglur iawn, sef os oes COVID ar rywun, mae gweddill y teulu'n dal i fynd i'r gwaith, i'r ysgol a beth bynnag arall, ond mae penaethiaid dan bwysau aruthrol ac yn dod ataf o bobman i ddweud bod rhieni mewn penbleth ynglŷn â'r hyn sy'n digwydd, mae'r disgyblion mewn penbleth. Maent yn poeni am fod pobl yn dod i'r ysgol pan fyddant yn gwybod bod COVID ar rywun arall yn eu teulu, ac mae pryderon ynglŷn â hynny. Credaf fod y cylch tair wythnos yn rhy hir mewn gwirionedd i ymateb i'r hyn sy'n digwydd, gyda niferoedd COVID yn codi'n sylweddol ar hyn o bryd. Felly, sut y bwriadwch ailedrych ar hynny ac edrych ar y cyngor? Fel y dywedodd y Gweinidog iechyd meddwl yn gynharach, gwn ei bod yn anodd cydbwyso pethau, ac mae cael hyn yn iawn mor bwysig. Rydym am i blant fod yn yr ysgol, ond rydym hefyd am iddynt fod yn ddiogel. Gwn eich bod o dan gryn dipyn o bwysau, ond hoffwn pe gallech wneud sylwadau ar hynny yn gyflym. Hefyd - yn gyflym iawn, Lywydd - rydym wedi cyrraedd sefyllfa lle mai plant rhwng - pobl ifanc, mae'n ddrwg gennyf, rhwng - 10 a 19 oed yw'r grŵp gyda'r nifer fwyaf o bobl â COVID ar hyn o bryd, gydag oddeutu 2,000 o achosion ym mhob 100,000 o bobl bellach, a chyfartaledd yn unig yw hwnnw; mewn rhai rhannau o Gymru, mae'r ffigur yn codi bob dydd. Felly, mae rhoi'r brechlyn i bobl 12 i 16 oed yn hanfodol, a gwn y bydd y broses honno'n dechrau ar 4 Hydref, ond pa gynlluniau sydd gennych ar waith i gyflymu'r broses o'i ddarparu? Diolch.
