English: Cabinet Secretary, thank you for that. I know this is a matter that you regard yourself of some importance. The data we have shows that there are 30,000 people in Wales who report gambling problems, 100,000 are identified at risk, 22,500 children aged between 11 and 15 who are in some way involved in gambling, and the estimated cost to Wales so far is between £40 million and £70 million. You'll have seen the Gambling Commission's report, which deals with certainly one issue with regard to fixed-odd betting machines, reducing the bet from £100 to £30 maximum, which quite frankly still amounts to £900 being bet in 10 minutes on these machines, which are identified as the crack cocaine of gambling. In many ways, this really doesn't go far enough and indicates, I think, the extent to which the Gambling Commission has conceded to the powerful gambling lobby. Cabinet Secretary, you'll be pleased to know that a cross-party group has now been formed in this Assembly and we'll be working alongside the cross-party group in Westminster as well to engage in joint activity to ensure that there is legislation and activity across all the Parliaments within the United Kingdom to actually tackle what is this growing hazard. I'm just wondering, from the Welsh perspective, Cabinet Secretary, what powers you think we can use in respect of limiting further betting machines and the actual betting capacity on those, and developing the public health agenda, and in particular the need for real, hardcore research, where Wales can take a lead in actually identifying and understanding far more the implications and the social problems that arise from gambling, it's association with things like sport, the normalisation of gambling and online gambling - really, if you could outline what action the Welsh Government proposes to take in light of not only all this information and these points that I've raised, but also the recommendations and the information from the chief medical officer.
Welsh: Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet, diolch i chi am hynny. Gwn eich bod yn ystyried hwn yn fater o bwys. Mae'r data sydd gennym yn dangos bod 30,000 o bobl yng Nghymru yn dweud bod ganddynt broblemau gamblo, nodir bod 100,000 mewn perygl, 22,500 o blant rhwng 11 a 15 oed sy'n hapchwarae mewn rhyw ffordd neu'i gilydd, ac amcangyfrifir bod y gost i Gymru hyd yn hyn rhwng £40 miliwn a £70 miliwn. Byddwch wedi gweld adroddiad y Comisiwn Hapchwarae, sy'n ymdrin ag un mater yn sicr, mewn perthynas â pheiriannau betio ods sefydlog, a lleihau'r swm mwyaf y gall rhywun ei fetio o £100 i £30, sydd, a bod yn gwbl onest, yn dal i olygu y gellid betio hyd at £900 ar y peiriannau hyn mewn 10 munud, peiriannau a gaiff eu hadnabod fel crac cocên y byd hapchwarae. Mewn llawer o ffyrdd, nid yw hyn yn ddigon ac rwy'n credu ei fod yn dangos i ba raddau y mae'r Comisiwn Hapchwarae wedi ildio i'r lobi hapchwarae bwerus. Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet, fe fyddwch yn falch o wybod bod grŵp trawsbleidiol wedi cael ei ffurfio yn y Cynulliad hwn bellach a byddwn yn gweithio ochr yn ochr â'r grŵp trawsbleidiol yn San Steffan hefyd ac yn ymgymryd â gweithgarwch ar y cyd i sicrhau bod yna ddeddfwriaeth a gweithgarwch ar draws yr holl Seneddau yn y Deyrnas Unedig i fynd i'r afael â'r perygl cynyddol hwn. Rwy'n meddwl tybed, o safbwynt Cymru, Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet, pa bwerau rydych yn credu y gallwn eu defnyddio i gyfyngu ar beiriannau betio a'r gallu betio ar y rheini mewn gwirionedd, a datblygu'r agenda iechyd y cyhoedd, ac yn benodol, yr angen am ymchwil real a chadarn lle y gall Cymru arwain ar nodi a gwella ei dealltwriaeth o'r goblygiadau a'r problemau cymdeithasol sy'n deillio o hapchwarae, ei gysylltiad â phethau fel chwaraeon, normaleiddio hapchwarae a hapchwarae ar-lein - mewn gwirionedd, pe gallech amlinellu pa gamau y mae Llywodraeth Cymru yn bwriadu eu cymryd, nid yn unig yng ngoleuni'r wybodaeth a'r pwyntiau rwyf wedi'u gwneud, ond hefyd yn ngoleuni'r argymhellion a'r wybodaeth gan y prif swyddog meddygol.
