English: Well, Dirprwy Lywydd, Jack Sargeant has made those points very powerfully indeed. The UK Government, this UK Government, promised in a Queen's Speech in 2019 that it would bring an employment Bill in front of the House of Commons. Where has that Bill been? Nowhere to be seen, of course. And had it been brought forward, maybe there would have been a chance to have addressed what UK Government Ministers are describing as an exploitation of a loophole in the law. Two thousand and nineteen, Llywydd. Here we are in 2022, and no sign of that promised Bill, and that tells you, as Jack Sargeant says, everything you need to know about the attitude of this current Conservative Government to workers' rights. I was privileged to meet Barry Gardiner, the Member of Parliament who brought forward the private Member's Bill to outlaw fire and rehire. The Prime Minister described the practice of fire and rehire as unacceptable, yet he allowed Conservative backbenchers in the House of Commons to talk out that private Member's Bill when it could have done so much good and certainly would have made a difference in the case of P&O. Now, the Prime Minister has claimed that P&O will be prosecuted under section 194 of the Trade Union and Labour Relations (Consolidation) Act 1992, but there's no sign of that happening either. The lack of action is deafening, as Jack Sargeant says. What we hear from Conservative Ministers are the lamest of excuses in the face of a deliberate flouting of the law by P&O. It was breathtaking that Peter Hebblethwaite was willing to turn up at a House of Commons select committee and acknowledge the fact that there was 'absolutely no doubt' - that's what he said - 'that we were required to consult with the unions.' Well, there was no doubt because that's what the law of the land required them to do. He then went on to say, 'We chose not to do that - we chose deliberately to break the law of the land.' Where is the action that this Government needs to take in Westminster to address that sort of deliberate flouting of the law and to protect the workers who were on the receiving end of it?
Welsh: Wel, Dirprwy Lywydd, mae Jack Sargeant wedi gwneud y pwyntiau hynny'n rymus iawn. Addawodd Llywodraeth y DU, Llywodraeth hon y DU, mewn araith gan y frenhines yn 2019 y byddai'n dod â Bil cyflogaeth gerbron Tŷ'r Cyffredin. Ble mae'r Bil hwnnw wedi bod? Nid yw unman i'w weld, wrth gwrs. A phe bai wedi'i gyflwyno, efallai y byddai cyfle wedi bod i fynd i'r afael â'r hyn y mae Gweinidogion Llywodraeth y DU yn ei ddisgrifio fel ymelwa ar fwlch yn y gyfraith. Dwy fil ac un deg naw, Llywydd. Dyma ni yn 2022, ac nid oes unrhyw arwydd o'r Bil hwnnw a addawyd, ac mae hynny'n dweud wrthych chi, fel y dywed Jack Sargeant, bopeth y mae angen i chi ei wybod am agwedd y Llywodraeth Geidwadol bresennol hon at hawliau gweithwyr. Cefais y fraint o gwrdd â Barry Gardiner, yr Aelod Seneddol a gyflwynodd y Bil Aelod preifat i wahardd diswyddo ac ailgyflogi. Disgrifiodd y Prif Weinidog yr arfer o ddiswyddo ac ailgyflogi fel un annerbyniol, ac eto caniataodd i feincwyr cefn y Ceidwadwyr yn Nhŷ'r Cyffredin atal y Bil Aelod preifat hwnnw pan allai fod wedi gwneud cymaint o les ac yn sicr byddai wedi gwneud gwahaniaeth yn achos P&O. Nawr, mae'r Prif Weinidog wedi honni y bydd P&O yn cael ei erlyn o dan adran 194 o Ddeddf yr Undebau Llafur a Chysylltiadau Llafur (Cydgrynhoi) 1992, ond nid oes unrhyw arwydd o hynny'n digwydd ychwaith. Mae'r diffyg gweithredu yn fyddarol, fel y dywed Jack Sargeant. Yr hyn a glywn ni gan Weinidogion Ceidwadol yw'r esgusodion mwyaf llipa yn wyneb diystyru y gyfraith yn fwriadol gan P&O. Roedd yn syfrdanol bod Peter Hebblethwaite yn barod i fynd i bwyllgor dethol yn Nhŷ'r Cyffredin a chydnabod y ffaith nad oedd 'dim amheuaeth o gwbl' - dyna a ddywedodd - 'ei bod yn ofynnol i ni ymgynghori â'r undebau.' Wel, nid oedd dim amheuaeth oherwydd dyna yr oedd y gyfraith yn ei gwneud yn ofynnol iddyn nhw ei wneud. Aeth ymlaen wedyn i ddweud, 'Fe wnaethom ni ddewis peidio â gwneud hynny - fe wnaethom ni ddewis torri'r gyfraith yn fwriadol.' Ble mae'r camau y mae angen i'r Llywodraeth hon eu cymryd yn San Steffan i fynd i'r afael â'r math hwnnw o ddiystyru'r gyfraith yn fwriadol ac amddiffyn y gweithwyr y digwyddodd hyn iddyn nhw?
