English: Thank you, Mark Isherwood, for that list of questions. In relation to the interim targets, I am of course aware of the call for interim targets, but I have to say, most proposals within today's plan were welcomed by our stakeholders. I think to set interim targets now, over a shorter time frame, would prove to be a really futile exercise, until we can better understand the impact of the pandemic. You referred to the impact that the pandemic has had on people living in fuel poverty; it has obviously increased, unfortunately, the number of people living in fuel poverty. I absolutely recognise that a number of stakeholders have said that the plan should include those interim targets in order to meet our statutory obligation. A number of suggested interim targets were put forward during the consultation, such as eradicating severe fuel poverty by 2028, for instance. There was another one that suggested by 2030. We've considered all of these interim targets. Without revised fuel poverty estimates and updated projections to determine what can be achieved by 2035, interim targets set in the current climate that we are in, I think, would be speculative and potentially unrealistic, whereas the targets that we have set, I think, are absolutely realistic. So, what I've asked my officials to do is to work with the stakeholders - you'll be aware of our new fuel poverty advisory group - to develop those interim targets. They can then be considered in the light of the new fuel poverty estimates that we're preparing. The interim targets when they are developed will then be added to the plan. You referred to health issues, and obviously we've had our health conditions pilot, which you'll be aware of, and that was expanded in July 2019. We've had over 8,600 referrals received by Nest, and more than 1,000 homes have benefited from the scheme. As part of the extended pilot, the eligibility criteria for support was also expanded to include people living on a lower income not in receipt of a means-tested benefit, at risk of avoidable ill health caused or exacerbated by living in a cold home, or living in a home with an EPC rating of D or worse. You referred to the UK Government's green homes voucher scheme, and we absolutely agree that investment in home energy efficiency is important - the key to support the economic recovery as we emerge from the coronavirus pandemic, along with all the other reasons for it. What we don't agree with the UK Government on is that the best way to do it is by way of a voucher scheme similar to the one that they've brought forward. There are issues regarding the quality of workmanship that can be attained within a very tight delivery timescale. That could potentially store up trouble for householders in the future. You'll be aware that the green homes voucher scheme was launched last summer, by the Chancellor, as part of measures he introduced. But because of delays in processing applications and the capacity of the supply chain to deliver, the scheme has now been extended to March 2022. If you look at it very carefully, the scheme is not as generous as first reported. Householders, unless they're on means-tested benefits, are required to pay a third of the cost of any home energy efficiency measure installed under the scheme. Windows and doors, which have attracted so much media attention, are secondary measures only, and the value of the contribution is limited to the value invested in primary measures such as insulation, for instance, or low-carbon heating systems. So, again, a householder receiving a £1,000 two-thirds contribution towards an air source heat pump, for instance, would receive a maximum of £1,000 towards new windows. So, it is a scheme that applies to England only, but I would urge you to look closer at it, because, as I say, it's not as generous as it was first reported. In relation to the private rented sector, I heard your and others' calls for ring fencing of funding. You are quite right when you say that a lot - I think it's about 40 per cent - of private rented stock in Wales is over 100 years old. So, we know that households in the private rented sector are more likely to be fuel poor. Obviously, tenants are eligible to apply for energy efficiency advice through the Nest scheme, and approximately a quarter of the households currently are benefiting from the Nest scheme.
Welsh: Diolch, Mark Isherwood, am y rhestr yna o gwestiynau. O ran y targedau dros dro, rwyf, wrth gwrs, yn ymwybodol o'r alwad am dargedau dros dro, ond rhaid imi ddweud, croesawyd y rhan fwyaf o gynigion yn y cynllun heddiw gan ein rhanddeiliaid. Credaf y byddai gosod targedau dros dro nawr, dros gyfnod byrrach, yn ymarfer ofer iawn, nes y gallwn ni ddeall effaith y pandemig yn well. Fe wnaethoch chi gyfeirio at yr effaith y mae'r pandemig wedi'i chael ar bobl sy'n byw mewn tlodi tanwydd; mae'n amlwg ei fod wedi cynyddu, yn anffodus, nifer y bobl sy'n byw mewn tlodi tanwydd. Rwy'n cydnabod yn llwyr fod nifer o randdeiliaid wedi dweud y dylai'r cynllun gynnwys y targedau dros dro hynny er mwyn cyflawni ein rhwymedigaeth statudol. Cafodd nifer o dargedau dros dro awgrymedig eu cyflwyno yn ystod yr ymgynghoriad, megis dileu tlodi tanwydd difrifol erbyn 2028, er enghraifft. Roedd un arall a awgrymodd erbyn 2030. Rydym ni wedi ystyried yr holl dargedau dros dro hyn. Heb amcangyfrifon tlodi tanwydd diwygiedig ac amcanestyniadau wedi'u diweddaru i benderfynu beth y gellir ei gyflawni erbyn 2035, byddai targedau dros dro a osodwyd yn yr hinsawdd bresennol yr ydym ni ynddi, rwy'n credu, yn ddamcaniaethol ac o bosibl yn afrealistig, tra bod y targedau yr ydym ni wedi'u gosod, rwy'n credu, yn gwbl realistig. Felly, yr hyn yr wyf wedi gofyn i'm swyddogion ei wneud yw gweithio gyda'r rhanddeiliaid - byddwch yn ymwybodol o'n grŵp cynghori newydd ar dlodi tanwydd - i ddatblygu'r targedau dros dro hynny. Yna gellir eu hystyried yng ngoleuni'r amcangyfrifon tlodi tanwydd newydd yr ydym ni yn eu paratoi. Bydd y targedau dros dro pan gânt eu datblygu wedyn yn cael eu hychwanegu at y cynllun. Fe wnaethoch chi gyfeirio at faterion iechyd, ac yn amlwg cawsom ein cynllun treialu cyflyrau iechyd, y byddwch yn ymwybodol ohono, ac ehangwyd hynny ym mis Gorffennaf 2019. Rydym ni wedi derbyn dros 8,600 o atgyfeiriadau gan Nest, ac mae mwy na 1,000 o gartrefi wedi elwa ar y cynllun. Yn rhan o'r cynllun treialu estynedig, ehangwyd y meini prawf cymhwysedd ar gyfer cymorth hefyd i gynnwys pobl sy'n byw ar incwm is nad ydynt yn cael budd-dal prawf modd, sydd mewn perygl o salwch y gellir ei osgoi a achosir neu a waethygir drwy fyw mewn cartref oer, neu sy'n byw mewn cartref â sgôr tystysgrif perfformiad ynni o D neu waeth. Fe wnaethoch chi gyfeirio at gynllun talebau cartrefi gwyrdd Llywodraeth y DU, ac rydym ni'n cytuno'n llwyr fod buddsoddi mewn effeithlonrwydd ynni yn y cartref yn bwysig - yr allwedd i gefnogi'r adferiad economaidd wrth inni ddod allan o bandemig y coronafeirws, ynghyd â'r holl resymau eraill am hynny. Yr hyn nad ydym ni yn cytuno â Llywodraeth y DU yn ei gylch yw mai'r ffordd orau o wneud hynny yw drwy gynllun talebau tebyg i'r un y maen nhw wedi'i gyflwyno. Mae materion yn ymwneud ag ansawdd y gwaith y gellir ei gyflawni o fewn amserlen gyflenwi dynn iawn. Gallai hynny o bosibl beri helynt i ddeiliaid tai yn y dyfodol. Byddwch yn ymwybodol bod y cynllun talebau cartrefi gwyrdd wedi'i lansio yr haf diwethaf, gan y Canghellor, yn rhan o'r mesurau a gyflwynodd. Ond oherwydd oedi wrth brosesu ceisiadau a gallu'r gadwyn gyflenwi i gyflawni, mae'r cynllun bellach wedi'i ymestyn i fis Mawrth 2022. Os edrychwch chi arno'n ofalus iawn, nid yw'r cynllun mor hael ag a adroddwyd gyntaf. Mae'n ofynnol i ddeiliaid tai, oni bai eu bod ar fudd-daliadau prawf modd, dalu traean o gost unrhyw fesur effeithlonrwydd ynni cartref a osodwyd o dan y cynllun. Mesurau eilaidd yn unig yw ffenestri a drysau, sydd wedi denu cymaint o sylw yn y cyfryngau, ac mae gwerth y cyfraniad wedi'i gyfyngu i'r gwerth a fuddsoddir mewn mesurau sylfaenol megis inswleiddio, er enghraifft, neu systemau gwresogi carbon isel. Felly, unwaith eto, byddai deiliad tŷ sy'n cael cyfraniad o ddwy ran o dair o £1,000 tuag at bwmp gwres ffynhonnell aer, er enghraifft, yn cael uchafswm o £1,000 tuag at ffenestri newydd. Felly, mae'n gynllun sy'n berthnasol i Loegr yn unig, ond byddwn yn eich annog i edrych yn fanylach arno, oherwydd, fel y dywedais, nid yw mor hael ag yr adroddwyd amdano yn gyntaf. O ran y sector rhentu preifat, clywais eich galwadau chi ac eraill am neilltuo cyllid. Rydych chi yn llygad eich lle pan ddywedwch fod llawer - credaf ei fod tua 40 y cant - o stoc rhentu preifat yng Nghymru dros 100 mlwydd oed. Felly, gwyddom fod aelwydydd yn y sector rhentu preifat yn fwy tebygol o fod yn dlawd o ran tanwydd. Yn amlwg, mae tenantiaid yn gymwys i wneud cais am gyngor effeithlonrwydd ynni drwy'r cynllun Nyth, ac mae tua chwarter yr aelwydydd yn elwa ar y cynllun Nyth ar hyn o bryd.
