English: Well, the Member will be aware - as you say, you've raised it with me several times in correspondence and we had a very good debate in the Chamber, I think it was at the tail end of last year, around this issue - that the Cavity Insulation Guarantee Agency is an independent body. It provides 25-year guarantees for cavity wall insulation fitted by registered installers in the UK and the Channel Islands. You'll be aware that all the installers are assessed for competence and they have to follow technical guidance for the material used and the best practice guidance. I've had discussions with the UK Government, because I'm aware that there have been concerns, and it is really important that people are able to access the very best advice and hold them to account, and I will continue to do that.
Welsh: Wel, bydd yr Aelod yn gwybod - fel y dywedwch, rydych wedi codi hyn gyda mi sawl gwaith mewn gohebiaeth a chawsom ddadl dda iawn yn y Siambr, ddiwedd y llynedd, rwy'n credu, ynghylch y mater hwn - fod yr Asiantaeth Gwarantau Inswleiddio Waliau Dwbl yn gorff annibynnol. Maent yn darparu gwarantau 25 mlynedd ar gyfer deunydd inswleiddio waliau ceudod a osodir gan osodwyr cofrestredig yn y DU ac Ynysoedd y Sianel. Fe fyddwch yn ymwybodol fod yr holl osodwyr yn cael eu hasesu i sicrhau eu cymhwysedd ac mae'n rhaid iddynt ddilyn canllawiau technegol ar gyfer y deunydd a ddefnyddir a'r canllawiau arferion gorau. Rwyf wedi cael trafodaethau gyda Llywodraeth y DU, gan fy mod yn ymwybodol o'r pryderon a fu, ac mae'n bwysig iawn fod pobl yn gallu cael mynediad at y cyngor gorau ac yn eu dwyn i gyfrif, a byddaf yn parhau i wneud hynny.
English: Cabinet Secretary, back in May, I asked you if schemes like Arbed and Nest had contributed to the number of ground- and air-source heat pumps installed in Wales, and can I thank you for writing to me with a bit more information on that? I was a bit surprised to see from your letter, though, that just nine air-source heat pumps were installed through Nest in the six years leading up to 2017 in my region. So, that's over six years - just nine. And the letter goes on to say that ground-source heat pumps have never been an agreed measure for homes under Nest or Arbed. If you're really going to make a difference to Welsh families and, obviously, to cutting carbon emissions, shouldn't these figures be a bit higher by now?
Welsh: Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet, yn ôl ym mis Mai, gofynnais i chi a oedd cynlluniau fel Arbed a Nyth wedi cyfrannu at nifer y pympiau gwres o'r ddaear a phympiau gwres o'r aer sydd wedi'u gosod yng Nghymru, ac a gaf fi ddiolch i chi am ysgrifennu ataf gyda mwy o wybodaeth ar hynny? Roeddwn yn synnu braidd wrth weld o'ch llythyr, fodd bynnag, mai naw pwmp gwres o'r aer yn unig a osodwyd drwy Nyth yn y chwe blynedd hyd at 2017 yn fy rhanbarth i. Felly, mae hynny dros chwe blynedd - naw yn unig. Ac mae'r llythyr yn mynd ymlaen i ddweud na fu pympiau gwres o'r ddaear erioed yn fesur a gytunwyd ar gyfer cartrefi o dan Nyth neu Arbed. Os ydych yn mynd i wneud gwahaniaeth go iawn i deuluoedd yng Nghymru, ac yn amlwg, o ran torri allyriadau carbon, oni ddylai'r ffigurau hyn fod ychydig bach yn uwch bellach?
English: I think we certainly need to look at new technologies and new innovations going forward, and we've just procured for the next stage of our Warm Homes programmes. I was in front of the environment committee last week, alongside my colleague Rebecca Evans, around work in this area, and I do think it would be good if we could see an increase in these numbers. I will certainly keep Members updated on the way forward.
Welsh: Credaf, yn sicr, fod angen inni edrych ar dechnolegau newydd a datblygiadau arloesol newydd yn y dyfodol, ac rydym newydd gwblhau'r broses gaffael ar gyfer cam nesaf ein rhaglen Cartrefi Clyd. Bûm gerbron y pwyllgor amgylchedd yr wythnos diwethaf, gyda fy nghyd-Ysgrifennydd Rebecca Evans, mewn perthynas â gwaith yn y maes hwn, a chredaf y byddai'n dda pe gallem weld cynnydd yn y niferoedd hyn. Byddaf yn sicr yn rhoi'r wybodaeth ddiweddaraf i'r Aelodau wrth symud ymlaen.
English: I wanted to ask a question about what discussions you've had with the housing Minister about trying to make social housing and council homes more energy efficient and better in this regard. Do you believe that councils need to be told that they need to do a certain level of work to make their homes more sustainable before they receive further grant funding from you as a Government? I know that there are examples throughout Wales of councils that are carrying out good work in this area, which can then have a positive impact on the bills of the tenants, ultimately - they would have to spend less money on their bills as a result. So, what progressive work are you doing in this area?
Welsh: Roeddwn i eisiau gofyn cwestiwn ynglŷn â pha drafodaethau yr ydych chi wedi eu cael â'r Gweinidog tai ynglŷn â cheisio gwneud tai cymdeithasol a thai cyngor yn fwy adnewyddadwy o ran ynni adnewyddadwy. A fyddai modd i chi, er enghraifft, ddweud bod angen i gynghorau gwneud hyn a hyn o waith i wneud eu tai yn fwy cynaliadwy cyn iddyn nhw gael mwy o arian grant gennych chi fel Llywodraeth? Rydym ni'n gwybod bod yna enghreifftiau ar draws Cymru o gynghorau sydd yn gwneud gwaith da yn y ardal yma sydd wedyn yn gallu cael effaith dda ar filiau tenantiaid ar ddiwedd y dydd - bydd yna lai o arian iddyn nhw ei dalu ar eu biliau yn hynny o beth. Felly, pa waith blaengar ydych chi'n ei wneud yn y maes yma?
English: Thank you. I have had discussions with the Minister for Housing and Regeneration on this issue, particularly in relation to our decarbonisation targets, because, obviously, this is one area that will help us to reach our targets. You're quite right; there are some councils that have real best practice in this area. As to whether we should be making them do things that make houses more sustainable before we give them grants, I don't think we've had specific discussions about that, but it's something I'm very happy to look at with her.
Welsh: Diolch. Rwyf wedi cael trafodaethau gyda'r Gweinidog Tai ac Adfywio ynghylch y mater hwn, yn enwedig mewn perthynas â'n targedau datgarboneiddio, oherwydd, yn amlwg, mae hwn yn un maes a fydd o gymorth inni gyflawni ein targedau. Rydych yn llygad eich lle; mae gan rai cynghorau arferion gorau go iawn yn y maes hwn. Ynglŷn ag a ddylem fod yn eu gorfodi i wneud pethau sy'n gwneud tai yn fwy cynaliadwy cyn rhoi grantiau iddynt, ni chredaf ein bod wedi cael trafodaethau penodol ynglŷn â hynny, ond mae'n rhywbeth rwy'n fwy na pharod i edrych arno gyda hi.
English: Thank you. The Wales animal health and welfare framework implementation plan sets out the framework group and Welsh Government priorities for animal health and welfare. I set out my plans to maintain and improve companion animal welfare in Wales in my oral statement last month.
Welsh: Diolch. Mae cynllun gweithredu fframwaith iechyd a lles anifeiliaid Cymru yn nodi'r grŵp fframwaith a blaenoriaethau Llywodraeth Cymru ar gyfer iechyd a lles anifeiliaid. Amlinellais fy nghynlluniau i gynnal a gwella lles anifeiliaid anwes yng Nghymru yn fy natganiad llafar y mis diwethaf.
English: Thank you, and it's because of your oral statement that I'm asking this question. You will know that, in that statement, you've indicated that you're not minded to introduce an animal abuse register for Wales, based on the fact that there isn't enough UK evidence. Well, the whole point of you initiating this was to create an evidence base in this country. We know that there's international evidence to support an animal abuse register, looking at examples from the United States of America. Is this a block on ambition from the Government, or is there something else that I'm not aware of? It's very, very hard for us to make an assessment on your statement without having that report in front of us. The time is ticking for the report that you've said you would give to us by the end of term. I'd really like to be able to see that, to understand your logic, because I do feel that, if you don't put this forward, it is a missed opportunity, and we could have been leaders in this field.
Welsh: Diolch, ac rwy'n gofyn y cwestiwn hwn oherwydd eich datganiad llafar. Fel y gwyddoch, yn y datganiad hwnnw fe nodoch chi nad ydych yn bwriadu cyflwyno cofrestr cam-drin anifeiliaid ar gyfer Cymru, ar sail y ffaith nad oes digon o dystiolaeth ar gyfer y DU. Wel, holl bwynt rhoi hyn ar waith oedd creu sylfaen dystiolaeth yn y wlad hon. Gwyddom fod tystiolaeth ryngwladol i gefnogi cofrestr cam-drin anifeiliaid, o edrych ar enghreifftiau o Unol Daleithiau America. A yw'r Llywodraeth yn rhwystro uchelgais, neu a oes rhywbeth arall nad wyf yn ymwybodol ohono? Mae'n anodd iawn i ni wneud asesiad o'ch datganiad heb fod yr adroddiad hwnnw o'n blaenau. Mae'r cloc yn tician ar yr adroddiad y dywedasoch wrthym y byddech yn ei roi inni erbyn diwedd y tymor. Buaswn wrth fy modd yn ei weld, i ddeall eich rhesymeg, gan fy mod yn teimlo, os nad ydych yn ei gyflwyno, bydd yn gyfle a gollwyd, a gallem fod wedi bod yn arweinwyr yn y maes hwn.
English: I mentioned that I'd just had the report when I made the statement in the Chamber last month. I've now had the opportunity to consider it in great detail. As I say, they make it very clear that the development of a register is not really recommended at this time. There are many other actions that I think are worthy of further work, but I have asked officials - you know, I've raised several questions on the report, and I've asked officials to look at it, and I will, as promised, make sure that I share it before the end of term, which gives me a week.
Welsh: Soniais fy mod newydd gael yr adroddiad pan wneuthum y datganiad yn y Siambr fis diwethaf. Rwyf wedi cael cyfle bellach i'w ystyried yn fanwl iawn. Fel y dywedaf, maent yn dweud yn glir iawn na argymhellir datblygu cofrestr ar hyn o bryd. Ceir nifer o gamau gweithredu eraill sy'n haeddu rhagor o waith yn fy marn i, ond rwyf wedi gofyn i swyddogion - rwyf wedi codi sawl cwestiwn ar yr adroddiad, ac rwyf wedi gofyn i swyddogion edrych arno, a byddaf, fel yr addewais, yn sicrhau fy mod yn ei rannu cyn diwedd y tymor, sy'n rhoi wythnos i mi.
English: One week. [ Laughter. ]
Welsh: Un wythnos. [ Chwerthin. ]
English: In that statement, you said that people should think through very carefully the responsibilities they're undertaking when they're thinking of having a pet. But I'm glad to hear you say also that you recognise that people's circumstances can change quite suddenly and through no fault of their own. Cats Protection is reporting a rise in the number of cats coming to them because landlords, some of them, are reluctant to accept cats, and, similarly, residential homes as well, and in both these cases it's quite often older cats that are either, sadly, abandoned or taken to a shelter and, of course, are more difficult to re-home. We know that pets contribute to both mental and physical well-being, so what kind of conversations are you having with landlords and the care home sector to see whether pets and their people can be kept together? Thank you.
Welsh: Yn y datganiad hwnnw, dywedasoch y dylai pobl feddwl yn ofalus iawn am y cyfrifoldebau y maent yn eu hysgwyddo pan fyddant yn ystyried cael anifail anwes. Ond rwy'n falch o'ch clywed yn dweud hefyd eich bod yn cydnabod y gall amgylchiadau pobl newid ar fyr rybudd a heb fod unrhyw fai arnynt hwy eu hunain. Mae Cats Protection yn nodi cynnydd yn nifer y cathod y maent yn eu derbyn am fod landlordiaid, rai ohonynt, yn gyndyn o ganiatáu cathod, a chartrefi preswyl hefyd yn yr un modd, ac yn y ddau achos, yn aml iawn, cathod hŷn sydd naill ai'n cael eu gadael neu'n cael eu rhoi mewn lloches, yn anffodus, ac wrth gwrs, mae'n anos ailgartrefu cathod hŷn. Gwyddom fod anifeiliaid anwes yn cyfrannu at les corfforol a meddyliol, felly pa fath o sgyrsiau rydych yn eu cael gyda landlordiaid a'r sector cartrefi gofal i weld a ellir cadw pobl a'u hanifeiliaid anwes gyda'i gilydd? Diolch.
English: I haven't had any specific discussions with either of those sectors, but I think you raise an important point. When you say about older animals, obviously, if somebody is going into residential care, it's probably likely that they will have had their pet for a considerable number of years. So, it can be incredibly upsetting for both parties. So, I think it is something that we do need to look at. I will make sure that I do start to have those conversations and will write to the Member in due course.
Welsh: Nid wyf wedi cael unrhyw drafodaethau penodol gyda'r naill na'r llall o'r sectorau hynny, ond credaf eich bod yn codi pwynt pwysig. Pan soniwch am anifeiliaid hŷn, yn amlwg, os yw rhywun yn mynd i ofal preswyl, mae'n debygol eu bod wedi bod yn berchen ar eu hanifail anwes ers blynyddoedd lawer. Felly, gall beri gofid mawr i'r ddwy ochr. Felly, credaf fod hyn yn rhywbeth y mae angen inni ei ystyried. Byddaf yn sicrhau fy mod yn dechrau cael y sgyrsiau hynny a byddaf yn ysgrifennu at yr Aelod maes o law.
English: Wales has the potential to create significant new low-carbon generation, which could provide economic and social benefits. Welsh Government policies and support mechanisms have created a positive environment for developing new energy generation. Our focus now is on ensuring Wales benefits over the long term from any further development.
Welsh: Mae gan Gymru botensial i greu cryn dipyn o gynlluniau cynhyrchu carbon isel newydd, a allai ddarparu manteision economaidd a chymdeithasol. Mae polisïau a mecanweithiau cymorth Llywodraeth Cymru wedi creu amgylchedd cadarnhaol ar gyfer datblygu ffyrdd newydd o gynhyrchu ynni. Rydym yn canolbwyntio bellach ar sicrhau bod Cymru'n elwa yn y tymor hir o unrhyw ddatblygiad pellach.
English: Thank you, Cabinet Secretary. We now know that the UK Government based their decision upon inaccurate figures, understating the true benefit and cost of the Swansea bay tidal lagoon. An audit undertaken by the Centre for Economics and Business Research shows that the six proposed lagoons would only be slightly more expensive than Hinkley C. Cabinet Secretary, in light of this revelation, will you be demanding that the UK Government re-evaluate the proposal for Swansea bay?
Welsh: Diolch, Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet. Gwyddom bellach fod Llywodraeth y DU wedi gwneud eu penderfyniad ar sail ffigurau anghywir, a oedd yn tanddatgan gwir fudd a chost morlyn llanw bae Abertawe. Dengys archwiliad a wnaed gan y Ganolfan Ymchwil Economeg a Busnes mai ychydig bach yn ddrytach yn unig a fyddai'r chwe morlyn arfaethedig na Hinkley C. Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet, yng ngoleuni hyn, a fyddwch yn mynnu bod Llywodraeth y DU yn ailwerthuso'r cynnig ar gyfer bae Abertawe?
English: I know the UK Government has now published a summary of its value-for-money assessment, and as I mentioned in an earlier answer, we're now reviewing that, and I think it depends what conclusions we come to from that as to what action we take. It did suggest the proposed tidal lagoon at Swansea bay would have a capital cost of more than three times as much per unit of electricity as the Hinkley Point C nuclear power station. So, I think these are figures that we need to look in depth at, and I'm sure we will have a view, and then we can decide on what action we want to take.
Welsh: Gwn fod Llywodraeth y DU bellach wedi cyhoeddi crynodeb o'i hasesiad gwerth am arian, ac fel y dywedais mewn ateb cynharach, rydym yn ei adolygu ar hyn o bryd, a chredaf fod y camau y byddwn yn eu cymryd yn dibynnu ar ein casgliadau yn sgil hynny. Awgrymodd y byddai cost cyfalaf y morlyn llanw arfaethedig ym mae Abertawe dair gwaith yn fwy fesul uned o drydan na gorsaf bŵer niwclear Hinkley Point C. Credaf, felly, fod y rhain yn ffigurau y mae angen inni eu harchwilio yn fanwl, ac rwy'n siŵr y bydd gennym safbwynt, ac yna gallwn benderfynu ar ba gamau rydym am eu cymryd.
English: The Westminster Government seems to have an energy policy based upon offshore wind and nuclear power. As prototypes are by their very nature more expensive, and the future storage costs of nuclear are capped - we would never have had a nuclear power station built if they weren't capped - it is not a level playing field. Did the Westminster Government explain why the price for nuclear - which, as we all know, is an over-60-year-old technology - was acceptable, but the same price, which was the final offer of the same strike price for the tidal lagoon as for Hinkley, was not acceptable? Have the Westminster Government explained why one is acceptable and one isn't, when one's a prototype and one's a 60-year-old technology with a capped final cost?
Welsh: Ymddengys bod gan Lywodraeth San Steffan bolisi ynni sy'n seiliedig ar ynni gwynt ar y môr ac ynni niwclear. Gan fod prototeipiau yn ddrytach oherwydd eu natur, a bod cap ar gostau storio ynni niwclear yn y dyfodol - ni fyddai gorsaf bŵer niwclear erioed wedi cael ei hadeiladu pe na baent wedi eu capio - nid yw'n deg cymharu'r ddau beth. A esboniodd Llywodraeth San Steffan pam fod y pris ar gyfer ynni niwclear - sydd, fel y gŵyr pob un ohonom, yn dechnoleg sydd dros 60 mlwydd oed - yn dderbyniol, ond nad oedd yr un pris, sef y cynnig terfynol o'r un pris streic ar gyfer morlyn llanw ag ar gyfer Hinkley, yn dderbyniol? A yw Llywodraeth San Steffan wedi esbonio pam fod un yn dderbyniol ac nid y llall, pan fo un yn brototeip a'r llall yn dechnoleg 60 mlwydd oed gyda chost derfynol wedi'i chapio?
English: No, and I think that's a very important point that you raise. I've just mentioned in my answer to Caroline Jones that we are looking at that summary value-for-money assessment now. I think you're right; their policy does seem to focus on just offshore and nuclear power. Of course, nuclear power, whilst being low carbon, is certainly not renewable energy. I've had discussions with Claire Perry, the Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State, around this, and about the need to encourage further onshore wind, and certainly solar power, too. I've also written to Greg Clark following the decision around the importance of making sure that we engage and support other renewable energy technologies.
Welsh: Nac ydynt, a chredaf eich bod yn codi pwynt pwysig iawn. Rwyf newydd grybwyll, yn fy ateb i Caroline Jones, ein bod yn edrych ar y crynodeb o'r asesiad gwerth am arian ar hyn o bryd. Credaf eich bod yn llygad eich lle; ymddengys bod eu polisi ond yn canolbwyntio ar ynni gwynt ar y môr ac ynni niwclear yn unig. Wrth gwrs, nid yw ynni niwclear, er ei fod yn garbon isel, yn ynni adnewyddadwy o gwbl. Rwyf wedi cael trafodaethau gyda Claire Perry, yr Is-Ysgrifennydd Gwladol Seneddol, ynglŷn â hyn, ac ynglŷn â'r angen i annog mwy o ynni gwynt ar y tir, ac yn sicr ynni'r haul, hefyd. Rwyf hefyd wedi ysgrifennu at Greg Clark yn dilyn y penderfyniad ynghylch pwysigrwydd sicrhau ein bod yn defnyddio ac yn cefnogi technolegau ynni adnewyddadwy eraill.
English: Both Caroline Jones and Mike Hedges have made some very valid and important points when it comes to the Swansea tidal lagoon, and Welsh Conservatives have been clear that we hope that there can be a way forward found for that project. I appreciate that this is a setback, but the Welsh Government certainly have our support in finding alternative ways in the future to progress the project. Of course, there are smaller scale schemes as well across Wales that are going ahead. You may be aware of Prosiect Gwyrdd in my constituency - I hope I pronounced that right - which is actually a collaboration between the five councils in south-east Wales, including Monmouthshire, that seeks the most cost-effective and environmentally friendly way to deal with residual waste that cannot be recycled or composted, but that can be burnt to produce steam and provide energy. Would you agree with me that this is a great example of collaboration between local authorities, Cabinet Secretary, and also a great way to deal with waste that cannot be dealt with in an otherwise environmentally friendly way? What are you doing to extend these types of projects, and to roll them out across the rest of Wales?
Welsh: Mae Caroline Jones a Mike Hedges wedi gwneud pwyntiau dilys a phwysig iawn mewn perthynas â morlyn llanw Abertawe, ac mae'r Ceidwadwyr Cymreig wedi datgan yn glir ein bod yn gobeithio y gellir dod o hyd i ffordd ymlaen ar gyfer y prosiect hwnnw. Rwy'n derbyn bod hyn yn siom, ond yn sicr, rydym yn cefnogi Llywodraeth Cymru i ddod o hyd i ffyrdd amgen yn y dyfodol o fwrw ymlaen â'r prosiect. Wrth gwrs, mae cynlluniau llai yn mynd rhagddynt ledled Cymru hefyd. Efallai eich bod yn ymwybodol o'r Prosiect Gwyrdd yn fy etholaeth - gobeithio fy mod yn ei ynganu'n iawn - sef cydweithrediad rhwng y pum cyngor yn ne-ddwyrain Cymru, gan gynnwys sir Fynwy, sy'n ceisio dod o hyd i'r ffordd fwyaf costeffeithiol ac ecogyfeillgar o ymdrin â gwastraff gweddilliol na ellir ei ailgylchu neu ei gompostio, ond y gellir ei losgi i gynhyrchu ager a darparu ynni. A fyddech yn cytuno â mi fod hon yn enghraifft wych o gydweithredu rhwng awdurdodau lleol, Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet, a hefyd yn ffordd wych o ymdrin â gwastraff na ellir ei drin mewn ffordd ecogyfeillgar? Beth rydych yn ei wneud i ymestyn y mathau hyn o brosiectau, a'u rhoi ar waith ledled gweddill Cymru?
English: Yes, I would agree with you. It's good to see collaboration at that scale between the five local authorities. It's really important that we get a mix of energy, and certainly community energy projects. I've seen some fantastic ones right across Wales. You'll also be aware - I think it's in your constituency; it's certainly Monmouthshire council - of the big solar farm that they've got there. We loaned, I think, about £4 million from Welsh Government. So, I think it is really good to see local authorities collaborating, coming up with innovative technologies to help us, again, make sure we reach our carbon targets.
Welsh: Ydw, rwy'n cytuno â chi. Mae'n dda gweld cydweithredu ar y raddfa honno rhwng y pum awdurdod lleol. Mae'n bwysig iawn fod gennym gymysgedd o ynni, ac yn sicr, prosiectau ynni cymunedol. Rwyf wedi gweld rhai aruthrol ledled Cymru. Fe fyddwch yn gwybod hefyd - credaf ei bod yn eich etholaeth chi; mae'n sicr o dan gyngor sir Fynwy - am y fferm solar fawr sydd ganddynt yno. Cawsom fenthyg oddeutu £4 miliwn, rwy'n credu, gan Lywodraeth Cymru. Felly, credaf ei bod yn wych gweld awdurdodau lleol yn cydweithredu, gan ddatblygu technolegau arloesol i'n cynorthwyo, unwaith eto, i sicrhau ein bod yn cyflawni ein targedau carbon.
English: Diolch. The consultation, informed by research, proposes updating the use classes Order, particularly for retail uses. It includes complementary changes to permitted development rights and proposes new rights to support the roll-out of electric car charging, next generation telecommunications networks and renewable energy development, without the need for a planning application.
Welsh: Diolch. Mae'r ymgynghoriad, sy'n cael ei lywio gan ymchwil, yn cynnig diweddaru'r Gorchymyn dosbarthiadau defnydd, yn enwedig at ddefnydd manwerthu. Mae'n cynnwys newidiadau ategol i hawliau datblygu a ganiateir ac yn argymell hawliau newydd i gefnogi'r broses o gyflwyno pwyntiau gwefru ceir trydan, rhwydweithiau telathrebu'r genhedlaeth nesaf a datblygu ynni adnewyddadwy, heb fod angen cais cynllunio.
