English: Well, I think it is difficult when local authorities have given planning permission, and, as you said, it was some time ago. You'd like to think that, given the policy framework I've set out, that wouldn't happen if planning permission was given freshly today. What we can do retrospectively obviously is a more complex question, and certainly one I'd encourage him to engage in a conversation with his own council on Ynys Môn about. And we'd certainly be open to a conversation. These are delicate judgments, aren't they? But I think the problem that we all face is that developers can often make exceptional arguments in particular cases, but the cumulative impact is a considerable one, and we are facing not only a climate emergency but a nature emergency too. When it comes to individual decisions, these are often complex and sometimes opaque. So, I'm afraid I don't have a glib answer for him today, other than that I think he raises a set of reasonable points that we do need to reflect on with the local authority to see what the options might be.
Welsh: Wel, rwy'n credu ei bod hi'n anodd pan fo awdurdodau lleol wedi rhoi caniatâd cynllunio, ac fel y dywedoch chi, roedd hyn beth amser yn ôl. O ystyried y fframwaith polisi a nodwyd gennyf, hoffwn feddwl na fyddai hynny'n digwydd pe bai caniatâd cynllunio yn cael ei roi o'r newydd heddiw. Mae'r hyn y gallwn ei wneud yn ôl-weithredol yn amlwg yn gwestiwn mwy cymhleth, ac yn sicr yn un y byddwn yn ei annog ef i'w drafod gyda'i gyngor ei hun ar Ynys Môn. Ac yn sicr fe fyddem yn agored i gael sgwrs. Mae'r rhain yn benderfyniadau dyrys, onid ydynt? Ond rwy'n credu mai'r broblem sy'n ein hwynebu i gyd yw y gall datblygwyr yn aml wneud dadleuon eithriadol mewn achosion penodol, ond mae'r effaith gronnus yn un sylweddol, ac rydym yn wynebu nid yn unig argyfwng hinsawdd ond argyfwng natur hefyd. O ran penderfyniadau unigol, mae'r rhain yn aml yn gymhleth ac weithiau'n ddyrys. Felly, mae arnaf ofn nad oes gennyf ateb rhwydd iddo heddiw, heblaw fy mod yn credu ei fod yn nodi cyfres o bwyntiau rhesymol y mae angen inni eu hystyried gyda'r awdurdod lleol i weld beth yw'r opsiynau posibl.
English: Since November 2021, we've announced £380 million funding to help Welsh households manage the cost-of-living crisis. Leasing Scheme Wales is improving access to longer term affordable private rented sector housing. An additional £6 million homelessness prevention fund has been provided to local authorities to help sustain tenancies for people and avoid homelessness.
Welsh: Ers mis Tachwedd 2021, rydym wedi cyhoeddi cyllid o £380 miliwn i helpu aelwydydd Cymru i reoli'r argyfwng costau byw. Mae Cynllun Lesio Cymru yn gwella mynediad at dai yn y sector rhentu preifat fforddiadwy mwy hirdymor. Mae cronfa atal digartrefedd ychwanegol gwerth £6 miliwn wedi cael ei darparu i awdurdodau lleol er mwyn helpu i gynnal tenantiaethau pobl ac osgoi digartrefedd.
English: I thank the Minister for stepping in at the last moment. May I extend my best wishes to the Minister for a speedy recovery too? Tenants and housing associations alike are extremely concerned about the next few months and find it difficult to forward plan and to fund without assurance as to the rates of benefits. The noises made by Liz Truss, the new Prime Minister, suggest that benefits may be cut, and that is extremely concerning, particularly because rents are paid through the universal credit system, and of course the local housing allowance has been frozen since 2020. What discussions, therefore, have you had with the new Secretary of State for Work and Pensions in London? And have you brought pressure to bear on her and the new Prime Minister to ensure that benefit levels increase in order to meet the increase in living costs, particularly rents, and that they also increase to increase the local housing allowance level?
Welsh: Diolch yn fawr iawn i'r Gweinidog am gamu i mewn, munud olaf. Gaf i innau estyn fy nymuniadau gorau i'r Gweinidog am wellhad buan hefyd? Mae tenantiaid a chymdeithasau tai fel ei gilydd yn hynod o bryderus am y misoedd nesaf ac yn ei chael hi'n anodd i flaengynllunio ac i gyllido heb fod ganddynt sicrwydd o beth fydd cyfraddau budd-daliadau. Mae'r synau mae'r Prif Weinidog newydd, Liz Truss, wedi eu gwneud dros yr haf yn sôn am dorri i lawr ar fudd-daliadau, ac mae hynny yn hynod o bryderus, yn enwedig gan fod rhenti yn cael eu talu drwy'r system credit cynhwysol, ac wrth gwrs mae'r LHA wedi cael ei rhewi ers 2020. Pa drafodaethau, felly, ydych chi wedi eu cael efo'r ysgrifennydd newydd dros waith a phensiynau yn Llundain? Ac a ydych chi wedi dwyn pwysau arni hi a'r Prif Weinidog newydd i sicrhau bod lefelau budd-daliadau yn cynyddu er mwyn cyfarch y cynnydd yn y costau byw, yn enwedig rhenti, a'u bod nhw hefyd yn cynyddu lefelau y lwfans tai lleol?
English: Thank you. You raise a very important point, and clearly the Welsh Government needs to work very closely with the UK Government in relation to many of the issues you raise. You'll appreciate that the new Government coming in hasn't been a usual - . They certainly haven't had a honeymoon period, have they? It's been a difficult time to engage with the new Ministers, so I'm not aware of any specific conversations that have taken place. I referred before to the homelessness prevention fund, and that £6 million that the Welsh Government brought forward was to plug a gap that the UK Government left with the budget reductions that were brought forward by the Department for Work and Pensions. And whilst the Welsh Government will continue to do all it can to help people with the unprecedented cost-of-living crisis, we have to recognise that we can't plug every gap. But I'm sure that the Minister will be having discussions with her new counterpart when she returns to work.
Welsh: Diolch. Rydych yn codi pwynt pwysig iawn, ac yn amlwg mae angen i Lywodraeth Cymru weithio'n agos iawn â Llywodraeth y DU mewn perthynas â llawer o'r materion a grybwyllwch. Fe fyddwch yn deall nad yw'r Llywodraeth newydd sy'n dod i mewn wedi cael - . Yn sicr nid ydynt wedi cael mis mêl. Mae wedi bod yn gyfnod anodd ar gyfer ymgysylltu â Gweinidogion newydd, felly nid wyf yn ymwybodol o unrhyw sgyrsiau penodol sydd wedi digwydd. Cyfeiriais o'r blaen at y gronfa atal digartrefedd, a bod y £6 miliwn a gyflwynodd Llywodraeth Cymru wedi'i fwriadu ar gyfer llenwi bwlch a adawodd Llywodraeth y DU gyda'r gostyngiadau yn y gyllideb a gyflwynwyd gan yr Adran Gwaith a Phensiynau. Ac er y bydd Llywodraeth Cymru yn parhau i wneud popeth yn ei gallu i helpu pobl yn yr argyfwng costau byw digynsail, mae'n rhaid inni gydnabod na allwn lenwi pob bwlch. Ond rwy'n siŵr y bydd y Gweinidog yn cael trafodaethau gyda'i swyddog cyfatebol newydd pan fydd yn dychwelyd i'r gwaith.
English: Transport for Wales is the acting authority responsible on behalf of the Welsh Government for ensuring that the contractor is fulfilling their responsibilities and duties to the residents of Hirwaun and those affected in the area.
Welsh: Trafnidiaeth Cymru yw'r awdurdod dros dro sy'n gyfrifol ar ran Llywodraeth Cymru am sicrhau bod y contractwr yn cyflawni eu cyfrifoldebau a'u dyletswyddau i drigolion Hirwaun a'r rhai yr effeithir arnynt yn yr ardal.
English: Thank you, Deputy Minister. On 8 August, I attended a public meeting in Hirwaun arranged by local councillors Karen Morgan and Adam Rogers. It was clear that the work was having a major impact on individuals and businesses, and although there was an acknowledgement of the impact from Future Valleys Construction and Rhondda Cynon Taf council, it was clear that there were no short-term solutions to the problems raised, including major concerns regarding safety following an increase in accidents in the area due to the work. May I invite the Minister to visit the area and to meet local councillors and residents to see the impact of this work - work commissioned by the Government - and work with Future Valleys Construction, through Transport for Wales, to seek urgent solutions before someone is seriously injured or killed in an accident, and before businesses in the area fail due to the impact on them?
Welsh: Diolch, Dirprwy Weinidog. Ar 8 Awst, fe fynychais gyfarfod cyhoeddus yn Hirwaun wedi'i drefnu gan gynghorwyr lleol, Karen Morgan ac Adam Rogers. Roedd yn glir bod y gwaith yn cael effaith mawr ar unigolion a busnesau, ac er bod cydnabyddiaeth o'r effaith gan Future Valleys Construction a chyngor Rhondda Cynon Taf, roedd yn amlwg nad oedd datrysiadau tymor byr i'r problemau a godwyd, gan gynnwys pryderon mawr o ran diogelwch yn sgil cynnydd mewn damweiniau yn yr ardal oherwydd y gwaith. Gaf i wahodd y Dirprwy Weinidog i ymweld â'r ardal a chwrdd â chynghorwyr lleol a thrigolion i weld effaith y gwaith - gwaith sydd wedi ei gomisiynu gan y Llywodraeth - a gweithio gyda Future Valleys Construction, trwy Trafnidiaeth i Gymru, i ganfod datrysiadau brys cyn bod rhywun yn cael ei anafu'n ddifrifol neu ei ladd mewn damwain, a chyn i fusnesau yn yr ardal fynd i'r wal oherwydd effaith y gwaith ar eu busnesau?
English: Well, I fully acknowledge that large road schemes like this are disruptive. They are noisy. They do cause harm to the environment. They do create considerable emissions. It's one of the reasons why we are reviewing our approach to road building. Just to note one point that Heledd Fychan made about this road being commissioned by the Government, I think it was commissioned by Ieuan Wyn Jones when he was the transport Minister when there was a coalition Government, so I don't think it's quite fair to make the insinuation that she does. It is being led, as you know, by a consortium, the Future Valleys consortium, and they assure us they have a whole series of measures in place to liaise with the local community, they have a range of engagement activities, they have a large reach on social media where they'll inform people when there are road closures. There is a community outreach officer whose role it is to meet with residents and community councillors who have concerns, and that's the right place to take the concerns. If you don't feel that you are getting satisfactory answers, by all means get in touch with me again, but that should be the first port of call. As I say, we do need to think very hard about these large, expensive and difficult road schemes and whether or not continuing to do what we've always done is going to produce the result that we all want to see if we're going to achieve net zero and we're going to achieve well-being in our communities.
Welsh: Wel, rwy'n cydnabod yn llwyr fod cynlluniau ffyrdd mawr fel hyn yn aflonyddgar. Maent yn swnllyd. Maent yn achosi niwed i'r amgylchedd. Maent yn creu allyriadau sylweddol. Mae'n un o'r rhesymau pam ein bod yn adolygu ein hymagwedd tuag at adeiladu ffyrdd. Os caf nodi un pwynt a wnaeth Heledd Fychan am y ffordd a gomisiynwyd gan y Llywodraeth, rwy'n meddwl mai Ieuan Wyn Jones a'i comisiynodd pan oedd yn Weinidog trafnidiaeth yn ystod y Llywodraeth glymblaid, felly nid wyf yn meddwl ei bod hi'n deg ichi wneud yr ensyniad a wnewch. Mae'n cael ei arwain, fel y gwyddoch, gan gonsortiwm, consortiwm Cymoedd y Dyfodol, ac maent yn ein sicrhau bod ganddynt gyfres gyfan o fesurau ar waith i gysylltu â'r gymuned leol, mae ganddynt ystod o weithgareddau ymgysylltu, mae ganddynt gyrhaeddiad mawr ar y cyfryngau cymdeithasol lle byddant yn hysbysu pobl pan fydd ffyrdd yn cael eu cau. Ceir swyddog allgymorth cymunedol gyda rôl i gyfarfod â thrigolion a chynghorwyr cymuned sydd â phryderon, a dyna'r lle cywir i leisio pryderon. Os nad ydych yn teimlo eich bod yn cael atebion boddhaol, ar bob cyfrif cysylltwch â mi eto, ond dyna ddylai fod yn fan cychwyn. Fel y dywedais, mae angen inni feddwl yn galed iawn am y cynlluniau ffyrdd mawr, drud ac anodd hyn ac a yw parhau i wneud yr hyn yr ydym bob amser wedi'i wneud yn mynd i gynhyrchu'r canlyniad y mae pawb ohonom eisiau ei weld os ydym am gyflawni sero net ac os ydym am sicrhau llesiant yn ein cymunedau.
English: The next item is questions to the Minister for Education and Welsh Language, postponed from 14 September. The first question is from Llyr Gruffydd.
Welsh: Yr eitem nesaf, felly, yw cwestiynau i Weinidog y Gymraeg ac Addysg a ohiriwyd o 14 Medi. Mae'r cwestiwn cyntaf gan Llyr Gruffydd.
English: The Welsh Government is working with Health Education and Improvement Wales to review the NHS Wales bursary scheme. We recognise the impact of increasing costs of living on healthcare professional students and we're working to identify immediate actions that could provide additional support.
Welsh: Mae Llywodraeth Cymru'n gweithio gydag Addysg a Gwella Iechyd Cymru i adolygu cynllun bwrsariaeth gwasanaeth iechyd gwladol Cymru. Rŷn ni'n cydnabod effaith costau byw cynyddol ar fyfyrwyr gofal iechyd proffesiynol ac rŷn ni'n ceisio nodi camau y gellir eu cymryd ar unwaith i roi cymorth ychwanegol iddyn nhw.
English: Well, you've answered my next question, and thank you for that, because I was going to highlight the fact that a constituent who is starting to study an adult nursing degree this year has contacted me explaining that they will receive £5,855 per year to help with living costs. Of course, self-catering accommodation for students is over £6,000 in his case, so there is a problem there, never mind getting food on the table. But what he was saying is that, if he was studying another course or decided not to take an NHS bursary for the fees, then he could access up to £10,700 per year to pay living costs. And the question he wanted me to ask was why there is such a difference in that regard and what is the Government doing to tackle that disincentive for someone to study a course in nursing, particularly in the context that there is a shortage in the workforce. So, I welcome the fact that there is review ongoing, but perhaps you could give us an idea of when there will be a change on the ground.
Welsh: Wel, rŷch chi wedi ateb fy nghwestiwn nesaf i, rwy'n credu, a diolch ichi am hynny, oherwydd rôn i'n mynd i dynnu sylw at y ffaith bod etholwr sy'n dechrau gradd nyrsio oedolion eleni wedi cysylltu â mi yn esbonio y bydd yn derbyn £5,855 y flwyddyn i'w gynorthwyo â chostau byw. Wrth gwrs, mae costau llety hunanarlwyo i fyfyrwyr dros £6,000 yn ei achos ef, felly mae yna ddiffyg yna yn barod, heb sôn am roi bwyd ar y bwrdd. Ond beth roedd e'n ei ddweud oedd, wrth gwrs, pe bai e'n astudio cwrs arall neu'n penderfynu peidio â chymryd bwrsariaeth iechyd tuag at ffioedd y cwrs, yna mi fyddai fe'n gallu cael hyd at £10,700 y flwyddyn i dalu costau byw. Y cwestiwn roedd e am i fi ofyn oedd pam fo gymaint o wahaniaeth yn hynny o beth a beth mae'r Llywodraeth yn ei wneud i fynd i'r afael â'r anghymelliad, neu'r disincentive, yna i rywun fod yn astudio cwrs i fod yn nyrs, yn enwedig yng nghyd-destun y ffaith bod yna ddiffyg yn y gweithlu. Felly, dwi'n croesawu'r ffaith bod yna adolygu yn digwydd, ond efallai y gallwch chi roi syniad inni o bryd bydd yna newid ar lawr gwlad.
English: Some changes have already been made. So, HEIW has already increased the allowance available to students with regard to placement accommodation and so on, and transport. So, some steps have already been taken. We've established a programme board for bursaries and incentives to ensure that we can renew the bursary to ensure that it does provide those incentives, as the Member said. They'll look at a range of factors, including those that he's mentioned today.
Welsh: Mae rhai newidiadau wedi digwydd eisoes. Felly, mae HEIW eisoes wedi cynyddu'r lwfans sydd ar gael i fyfyrwyr ynglŷn â llety placements er enghraifft, a hefyd trafnidiaeth. Felly, mae rhai camau eisoes wedi cael eu cymryd. Rŷn ni wedi sefydlu bwrdd rhaglen bwrsariaethau a chymhellion er mwyn sicrhau ein bod ni'n gallu adnewyddu'r fwrsariaeth i sicrhau ei fod e yn creu cymhelliad, fel mae'r Aelod yn dweud. Byddan nhw'n edrych ar ystod eang o ffactorau, yn cynnwys y rhai mae e wedi sôn amdanyn nhw heddiw.
English: I think the same constituent possibly contacted me, although I think they named us individually rather than collectively on this occasion. They explained that because their household income was just over the eligibility threshold for an income-assessed NHS bursary, their son wasn't eligible. He was already short £317 before taking into account food, laundry and travel expenses. They pointed out that their other son, who was not studying for a nursing course but a general alternative course, would be £3,000 a year better off on the funding he currently receives through the system currently in place. So, how would you address the constituent's closing question to, I think, both of us: what could be done to amend the inequitable treatment of nursing students who are starting their studies this term?
Welsh: Rwy'n credu bod yr un etholwr o bosibl wedi cysylltu â mi, er fy mod yn credu iddynt ein henwi'n unigol yn hytrach na gyda'n gilydd y tro hwn. Fe wnaethant esbonio nad oedd eu mab yn gymwys oherwydd bod incwm eu cartref ychydig dros y trothwy cymhwysedd ar gyfer bwrsariaeth GIG a asesir ar sail incwm. Roedd eisoes yn brin o £317 cyn ystyried treuliau bwyd, golchi dillad a theithio. Fe wnaethant dynnu sylw at y ffaith y byddai eu mab arall, nad oedd yn astudio ar gyfer cwrs nyrsio ond yn hytrach, ar gyfer cwrs amgen cyffredinol, £3,000 y flwyddyn yn well ei fyd ar yr arian y mae'n ei dderbyn yn awr drwy'r system sydd yn ei lle ar hyn o bryd. Felly, sut y byddech chi'n ateb cwestiwn olaf yr etholwr, i'r ddau ohonom, rwy'n credu: beth y gellid ei wneud i ddiwygio'r ffordd annheg y mae myfyrwyr nyrsio sy'n dechrau eu hastudiaethau y tymor hwn yn cael eu trin?
English: Well, I refer Mark Isherwood to the answer I gave a moment ago, but I would say, both to him and to Llyr Gruffydd, that, if you would like to write to me about the particular constituent, I would be able to look into that in more detail - unless you have already; I certainly have had some correspondence on this. But I'd be very happy to look into that in more detail.
Welsh: Wel, rwy'n cyfeirio Mark Isherwood at yr ateb a roddais eiliad yn ôl, ond rwyf am ddweud wrtho ef ac wrth Llyr Gruffydd, os hoffech chi ysgrifennu ataf ynglŷn â'r etholwr penodol, gallwn edrych ar hynny'n fwy manwl - oni bai eich bod wedi gwneud hynny eisoes; rwy'n sicr wedi cael peth gohebiaeth ar hyn. Ond byddwn yn hapus iawn i edrych yn fanylach ar hynny.
English: The cost-of-living crisis is having, and will continue to have, a significant impact on all public services, including our schools. As the First Minister has made clear, only the UK Government has the financial firepower to tackle the crippling effects of rising energy and other costs.
Welsh: Mae'r argyfwng costau byw yn cael, a bydd yn parhau i gael, effaith sylweddol ar bob gwasanaeth cyhoeddus, gan gynnwys ein hysgolion. Fel y mae'r Prif Weinidog wedi egluro, dim ond Llywodraeth y Deyrnas Unedig sydd â'r grym ariannol sydd â'r grym ariannol i fynd i'r afael ag effeithiau andwyol y cynnydd mewn costau ynni a chostau eraill.
English: Thank you, Minister. On a visit to schools in my region the head told me about her concern about heating and lighting in the classrooms; she was trying to switch off all of the switches in sight. And the Welsh Local Government Association has warned that budgets for schools across Wales face huge challenges as a result of inflation and the increase in energy prices. According to a National Association of Head Teachers review, 37 per cent of heads foresee that these costs will create a deficit in their budgets, and there won't be an option other than to consider redundancies. That could be disastrous at a time when our children and young people need the best possible support as a result of the pandemic. NAHT Wales has also warned of the damaging impact if local authorities don't provide the full funding for wage rises for teachers. The Welsh Government has announced that there won't be additional funding to pay for this. So, will any additional financial support be available for schools to cope with all of these funding crises?
Welsh: Diolch, Weinidog. Ar ymweliad ag ysgolion yn fy rhanbarth ddechrau'r tymor, roedd y pennaeth yn sôn wrthyf i am ei phryder am wresogi a goleuo'r dosbarthiadau eleni; roedd hi wrthi fel lladd nadroedd yn trio diffodd pob switsh mewn golwg. Ac mae Cymdeithas Llywodraeth Leol Cymru wedi rhybuddio bod cyllidebau ysgolion ar draws Cymru'n wynebu heriau enfawr yn sgil effaith chwyddiant a phrisiau ynni. Yn ôl arolwg gan y National Association of Head Teachers, mae 37 y cant o benaethiaid yn rhagweld bydd y costau hyn yn creu diffyg yn eu cyllidebau, a na fydd opsiwn heblaw ystyried diswyddiadau. Byddai hynny'n drychinebus ar adeg pan fo ein plant a'n pobl ifanc angen y gefnogaeth orau bosib yn sgil effaith y pandemig ar eu haddysg. Mae NAHT Cymru hefyd wedi rhybuddio am effaith niweidiol bosib os na fydd awdurdodau lleol yn darparu'r cyllid llawn ar gyfer codiadau cyflog athrawon, ond mae Llywodraeth Cymru wedi datgan na fydd arian ychwanegol ar gael ar gyfer hyn. Felly a fydd unrhyw gefnogaeth ariannol ychwanegol ar gael ar gyfer ysgolion er mwyn ymdopi â'r holl heriau ariannol hyn?
English: In terms of workforce salaries, that funding has already been allocated according to the revenue support grant last year. That was the basis for their agreement. I agree with the comments made by Sioned Williams on the pressures on our schools because of the increase in the costs of heating and other costs related to inflation and so on. As the Member will know from what we were discussing in the Senedd yesterday, the Welsh Government's budget buys £600 million less in services than it did in November of last year. So, we are calling on the Prime Minister and the Chancellor to make up that deficit, because that's what everyone agreed was the need for public services in Wales at the end of last year. It's only the Westminster Government that has the financial firepower to make up that deficit. Unfortunately, there are no simple solutions in this area. In terms of school budgets specifically - the Member mentioned the work of the WLGA in this regard - we do know, in light of the fact that we have continued to fund schools throughout the COVID period, although there's been less provision in many different ways, that the reserves for schools in Wales have increased substantially over that period. So, we are supporting local authorities to work with schools to ensure that that source of funding is also taken into account as they look at the challenging situations faced by schools.
Welsh: O ran costau tâl y gweithlu, mae'r arian hwnnw eisoes wedi ei ddyrannu fel rhan o negodiadau yr RSG y llynedd. Dyna oedd y sail iddyn nhw gael eu cytuno. Rwy'n cytuno â beth mae Sioned Williams yn ei ddweud ynglŷn â'r pwysau sydd ar ein hysgolion ni oherwydd cynnydd mewn costau gwresogi a chostau eraill o ran chwyddiant ac ati. Fel mae'r Aelod yn gwybod o'r hyn rôn ni'n ei drafod yn y Senedd ddoe, mae cyllideb Llywodraeth Cymru yn prynu £600 miliwn yn llai o adnoddau ac o wasanaethau nag oedd hi ym mis Tachwedd diwethaf. Felly, mae galw ar y Prif Weinidog yn San Steffan a'r Canghellor i sicrhau ein bod ni'n cael arian i wneud i fyny am hynny, oherwydd dyna oedd pawb yn cytuno ar ddiwedd y llynedd oedd yr angen ar gyfer gwasanaethau cyhoeddus yma yng Nghymru. Dim ond gan y Llywodraeth yn San Steffan mae'r gallu a'r grym ariannol i allu gwneud yn iawn am hynny. Does dim, yn anffodus, atebion syml yn y maes hwn. O ran cyllidebau ysgolion yn benodol - roedd yr Aelod yn sôn am waith y WLGA yn hyn o beth - rŷn ni yn gwybod, yn sgil y ffaith ein bod ni wedi parhau i ariannu ysgolion dros gyfnod COVID, er bod llai o ddarpariaeth wedi bod mewn amryw o ffyrdd gwahanol, fod yr arian wrth gefn sydd gan ysgolion yng Nghymru wedi cynyddu yn sylweddol iawn dros y cyfnod hwnnw. Felly, rŷn ni yn cefnogi awdurdodau lleol i weithio gydag ysgolion i sicrhau bod defnydd y ffynhonnell honno o arian hefyd yn cael ei gymryd i mewn i ystyriaeth wrth edrych ar y sefyllfa heriol mae ysgolion yn ei wynebu.
