English: Can I thank the Member for his questions? He asked whether we will be able to make the scheme available for part-timers straight away. I'm now caught in a dilemma: Members expect this to be delivered as a package and now some Members want little bits of it to be delivered earlier than others. I think the issue is, David, that we see this package in the round and I want to be able to move forward on that basis, introducing support for students across all modes at the same time, because I think if we start doing bits earlier than others, we'll be in danger of perhaps being accused of not keeping faith with this principle that this is a package as a whole. But with regard to credit thresholds and previous study, you'll be aware that the report is newly published and these are some of the details that we will need to work through in the coming weeks, before we're able to go out to consultation on a detailed Government response. So, issues around credit thresholds, previous study, how many times you can go into the system and whether you can be a perpetual student in the system, all need to come out in the further consideration around sustainability and around the finer details of the package. You're right: industry, employers have a role to play here. You'll be aware of a speech I made recently with regard to how I want a closer working relationship between higher education institutions and their local economy - their local employers. Those discussions are ongoing with Julie James and other Cabinet Secretary colleagues about how we can make those linkages, which are absolutely crucial. You raised the issue of moral hazard: if we do this, will we actually then create a problem elsewhere in the system? I believe there is a genuine desire, both in the HE sector and with employers, to work together to deliver on this agenda. Employers see the benefit of having well-skilled workers who they can support. They can retain those skills, increase their productivity and increase the productivity of that business, which has been one of the things that have dogged the Welsh economy - low productivity levels. This is an opportunity to address that.
Welsh: A gaf i ddiolch i'r Aelod am ei gwestiynau? Gofynnodd a fyddwn yn gallu sicrhau bod y cynllun ar gael i weithwyr rhan-amser ar unwaith. Rwyf mewn penbleth: Mae Aelodau yn disgwyl i hyn gael ei gyflwyno fel pecyn a nawr mae rhai Aelodau eisiau darnau bach ohono i gael eu darparu yn gynt nag eraill. Rwy'n credu mai'r broblem yw, David, ein bod ni'n gweld y pecyn hwn yn ei gyfanrwydd, ac rwyf eisiau gallu symud ymlaen ar y sail honno, gan gyflwyno cymorth i fyfyrwyr o bob math ar yr un pryd, oherwydd os byddwn yn dechrau gwneud rhai darnau yn gynt nag eraill, rwy'n credu y byddwn mewn perygl efallai o gael ein cyhuddo o beidio â chadw'n driw i'r egwyddor fod hwn yn un pecyn cyfan. Ond o ran trothwyon credyd ac astudio blaenorol, byddwch yn ymwybodol fod yr adroddiad wedi ei gyhoeddi yn ddiweddar a dyma rai o'r manylion y bydd angen i ni weithio arnynt yn ystod yr wythnosau nesaf, cyn ein bod ni'n gallu ymgynghori ar ymateb manwl y Llywodraeth. Felly, mae angen i ni drafod materion sy'n ymwneud â throthwyon credyd, astudio blaenorol, sawl gwaith y gallwch chi fynd i mewn i'r system ac a allwch chi fod yn fyfyriwr parhaol yn y system, wrth roi ystyriaeth bellach i gynaliadwyedd ac i fanylion y pecyn. Rydych chi'n iawn: mae gan ddiwydiant, cyflogwyr ran i'w chwarae yma. Byddwch yn ymwybodol o araith a wneuthum yn ddiweddar ar sut yr wyf yn dymuno sicrhau perthynas waith agosach rhwng sefydliadau addysg uwch a'u heconomi leol - eu cyflogwyr lleol. Mae'r trafodaethau hynny'n parhau â Julie James a chydweithwyr eraill ynglŷn â sut y gallwn wneud y cysylltiadau hynny, sy'n gwbl hanfodol. Gwnaethoch chi nodi mater o berygl moesol: os ydym yn gwneud hyn, a fyddwn ni mewn gwirionedd wedyn yn creu problem rywle arall yn y system? Rwy'n credu bod awydd gwirioneddol, yn y sector Addysg Uwch ac ymhlith cyflogwyr, i gydweithio i gyflawni'r agenda hon. Mae cyflogwyr yn gweld y budd o gael gweithwyr medrus y gallant eu cefnogi. Gallant gadw'r sgiliau hynny, cynyddu eu cynhyrchiant hwy a chynhyrchiant y busnes, sy'n un o'r pethau sydd wedi pwyso economi Cymru - lefelau cynhyrchiant isel. Mae hwn yn gyfle i fynd i'r afael â hynny.
