English: Minister, last month I raised with you the issue of frequency of services stopping at request stops like Kidwelly station. I wonder if you've had an opportunity yet to raise some of those questions with the provider. There's also an issue about, where request stops are available, how easy it is for passengers to make that request and how aware passengers are of how to do that. So, can I press you again to have further conversations with Transport for Wales? I'm sure their intentions here are good, but we won't persuade people to use those public transport services unless we make it as easy as possible for them to do so, and the representations that I'm receiving from constituents along that line, particularly where you have got the request stop issue, is that it isn't always easy, that you don't always get the guard coming through quickly enough to be able to make that request, or you may not even know that that's how you can make the request. So, is there something further that we can do with Transport for Wales to make that easier?
Welsh: Weinidog, y mis diwethaf gofynnais i chi ynglŷn ag amlder y gwasanaethau sy'n stopio mewn arosfannau ar gais megis gorsaf Cydweli. Tybed a ydych wedi cael cyfle eto i drafod rhai o'r cwestiynau hynny gyda'r darparwr. Lle mae arosfannau ar gais ar gael, mae yna gwestiwn hefyd ynglŷn â pha mor hawdd yw hi i deithwyr wneud y cais a pha mor ymwybodol yw teithwyr o sut i wneud hynny. Felly, a gaf fi bwyso arnoch eto i gael trafodaethau pellach gyda Trafnidiaeth Cymru? Rwy'n siŵr fod eu bwriadau'n dda, ond ni lwyddwn i berswadio pobl i ddefnyddio'r gwasanaethau trafnidiaeth gyhoeddus hynny oni bai ein bod yn ei gwneud mor hawdd â phosibl iddynt wneud hynny, ac mae'r sylwadau a gaf gan etholwyr sy'n byw ger y rheilffordd honno, yn enwedig lle mae gennych y broblem gyda'r arosfan ar gais, yn dangos nad yw hi bob amser yn hawdd, nad yw'r gard yn dod drwodd yn ddigon cyflym bob amser i allu gwneud y cais, neu efallai nad ydych yn gwybod mai dyna sut y gallwch wneud y cais. Felly, a oes rhywbeth pellach y gallwn ei wneud gyda Trafnidiaeth Cymru i wneud hynny'n haws?
English: I'd like to thank Helen Mary Jones for the question, and I'd agree with her that we should be working very closely with Transport for Wales to ensure that all passengers are aware of how to request stops. In addition, we will liaise with community rail partnerships - we're investing more money in those partnerships in this rail franchise period - and we'll also work with station adoption groups as well to ensure that all relevant authorities and passenger groups are aware of how to go about ensuring that they can stop at requested stations
Welsh: Hoffwn ddiolch i Helen Mary Jones am y cwestiwn, a buaswn yn cytuno â hi y dylem weithio'n agos iawn gyda Trafnidiaeth Cymru i sicrhau bod pob teithiwr yn gwybod sut i wneud cais i stopio mewn arosfannau ar gais. Yn ogystal, byddwn yn cysylltu â phartneriaethau rheilffordd cymunedol - rydym yn buddsoddi mwy o arian yn y partneriaethau hynny dros gyfnod y fasnachfraint reilffyrdd hon - a byddwn hefyd yn gweithio gyda grwpiau mabwysiadu gorsafoedd i sicrhau bod pob awdurdod a grŵp teithwyr perthnasol yn ymwybodol o sut i fynd ati i sicrhau y gallant stopio mewn gorsafoedd ar gais.
English: Minister, the Tories actually promised to deliver electrification to Swansea, which would definitely have improved services further west than Swansea. Now, we all know they reneged on that promise and as such, services west of Cardiff will not have UK Government support for any infrastructure work and modernisation. Now, that gives the wider impression that anything west of Cardiff is also not open for business and not interested in investors from the UK Government. When the new Prime Minister is elected, whoever that may be, will you therefore make a commitment to actually seek to get them to do another u-turn and actually honour their commitment so that we can see electrification to Swansea, which then improves the links to the west, but also perhaps we ask them to make sure that they also follow Welsh Labour's calls that Wales is open for business to all investors?
Welsh: Weinidog, fe addawodd y Torïaid ddarparu trydaneiddio i Abertawe, rhywbeth a fyddai'n sicr wedi gwella gwasanaethau ymhellach i'r gorllewin nag Abertawe. Nawr, gŵyr pawb ohonom eu bod wedi torri'r addewid hwnnw ac o'r herwydd, ni fydd gwasanaethau i'r gorllewin o Gaerdydd yn cael cymorth gan Lywodraeth y DU ar gyfer unrhyw waith seilwaith na moderneiddio. Nawr, mae hynny'n rhoi'r argraff ehangach nad yw unrhyw beth i'r gorllewin o Gaerdydd yn agored i fusnes chwaith ac nad oes diddordeb mewn buddsoddwyr gan Lywodraeth y DU. Pan etholir y Prif Weinidog newydd, pwy bynnag y bo, a wnewch chi ymrwymo felly i geisio'u cael i wneud tro pedol arall a chadw eu hymrwymiad mewn gwirionedd er mwyn inni allu gweld trydaneiddio i Abertawe, sydd wedyn yn gwella'r cysylltiadau â'r gorllewin, ond hefyd efallai y gallem ofyn iddynt sicrhau eu bod yn gwrando ar alwadau Llafur Cymru fod Cymru'n agored i fusnes i bob buddsoddwr?
English: I thank David Rees for his question and I agree with his points. Obviously Wales has been short-changed for some time now and I'll continue to press for fair funding from UK Government, and I'd ask for the support of all Assembly Members in this regard. I don't think we need to wait until there is a new Prime Minister to demand that we have responsibilities and funding for rail infrastructure devolved, because Keith Williams is carrying out a root-and-branch review of Britain's railways right now and that provides an opportunity to reform the railway system and services across the UK and create a fully integrated public transport network that Wales needs. Our expectation is for the Williams review to set out a very clear pathway for further devolution for Wales, and, as I say, I'd be very grateful for the support of Assembly Members in our call for that.
Welsh: Diolch i David Rees am ei gwestiwn ac rwy'n cytuno â'i bwyntiau. Yn amlwg, mae Cymru wedi cael cam ers cryn amser bellach a byddaf yn parhau i bwyso am gyllid teg gan Lywodraeth y DU, a hoffwn ofyn am gefnogaeth pob Aelod Cynulliad yn hyn o beth. Nid wyf yn credu bod angen aros nes y gwelwn Brif Weinidog newydd i fynnu ein bod yn cael cyfrifoldebau a chyllid ar gyfer y seilwaith rheilffyrdd wedi'i ddatganoli, oherwydd mae Keith Williams yn cynnal adolygiad gwraidd a brig o reilffyrdd Prydain ar hyn o bryd ac mae hwnnw'n rhoi cyfle i ddiwygio'r system reilffyrdd a gwasanaethau ledled y DU a chreu'r rhwydwaith trafnidiaeth gyhoeddus cwbl integredig sydd ei angen ar Gymru. Rydym yn disgwyl y bydd adolygiad Williams yn gosod llwybr clir iawn ar gyfer datganoli pellach i Gymru, ac fel y dywedais, buaswn yn ddiolchgar iawn am gefnogaeth Aelodau'r Cynulliad wrth alw am hynny.
English: Diolch yn fawr iawn. Given that Wales is currently facing potentially turbulent economic times, as we discussed only yesterday, with the potential closure of Ford, we believe here that we should do as much as possible to diversify the Welsh economy - for example, developing infrastructure so that, as a country, we can offer our businesses the ability to take advantage of emerging global markets. Can the Minister outline what the Welsh Government is doing to diversify the Welsh economy under his leadership?
Welsh: Diolch yn fawr iawn. O ystyried bod Cymru ar hyn o bryd yn wynebu cyfnod economaidd a allai fod yn gythryblus, fel y trafodasom ddoe ddiwethaf, gyda'r posibilrwydd y bydd Ford yn cau, credwn yn y fan hon y dylem wneud cymaint ag y gallwn i arallgyfeirio economi Cymru - er enghraifft, datblygu seilwaith er mwyn i ni fel gwlad allu cynnig y gallu i'n busnesau fanteisio ar farchnadoedd byd-eang sy'n dod i'r amlwg. A all y Gweinidog amlinellu'r hyn y mae Llywodraeth Cymru yn ei wneud i arallgyfeirio economi Cymru o dan ei arweinyddiaeth?
English: Yes, of course. This is an incredibly important matter to consider as we approach EU exit date. It's absolutely essential that we look at whether we need to turn the dial on the actions contained within the Welsh Government's economic action plan, specifically with regard to decarbonisation and futureproofing businesses. In many respects, Wales has a diverse economy compared to the UK, where manufacturing is at a very, very low level indeed and where there is a very heavy reliance on the service sector, particularly in certain geographical parts of the UK. It's my belief that, given the investment we've made over many years since devolution, the economy is in a strong position. We will go on ensuring that we grow small and micro-sized firms so that we encourage the growth of medium-sized firms, and that, wherever possible, we encourage businesses to embrace modern technology and modern ways of working. But our actions in the economic action plan were specifically designed to deal with the challenges of the automation industry 4.0 and Brexit. They are there; we are dealing with them. We are delivering on those actions and, as a consequence, we do now have an unemployment rate that is at, or around, record low levels.
Welsh: Gallaf, wrth gwrs. Mae hwn yn fater eithriadol o bwysig i'w ystyried wrth i ni nesáu at ddyddiad gadael yr UE. Mae'n gwbl hanfodol ein bod yn ystyried a oes angen inni ddwysáu'r camau sydd wedi'u cynnwys yng nghynllun gweithredu economaidd Llywodraeth Cymru, yn benodol mewn perthynas â datgarboneiddio a diogelu busnesau ar gyfer y dyfodol. Mewn sawl ffordd, mae gan Gymru economi amrywiol o gymharu â'r DU, lle mae gweithgynhyrchu ar lefel isel iawn yn wir a lle mae dibyniaeth fawr iawn ar y sector gwasanaethau, yn enwedig mewn rhai rhannau daearyddol o'r DU. O gofio'r buddsoddiad a wnaethom dros flynyddoedd lawer ers datganoli, mae'r economi mewn sefyllfa gref yn fy marn i. Byddwn yn parhau i sicrhau ein bod yn tyfu cwmnïau bach a microfusnesau er mwyn inni annog twf cwmnïau canolig eu maint, a lle bynnag y bo'n bosibl, ein bod yn annog busnesau i groesawu technoleg fodern a ffyrdd modern o weithio. Ond cafodd ein gweithredoedd yn y cynllun gweithredu economaidd eu cynllunio'n benodol i ymdrin â heriau'r diwydiant awtomeiddio 4.0 a Brexit. Maent yno; rydym yn ymdrin â hwy. Rydym yn cyflawni'r camau hynny ac o'r herwydd, erbyn hyn mae gennym gyfradd ddiweithdra sydd ar lefel is nag erioed, neu o gwmpas hynny.
English: Thank you very much for that answer, and I recognise the work on decarbonisation, but I wanted to focus on digital, and I think that Wales is unprepared for, potentially, the next industrial revolution. We led the last one, but we are still lagging behind in this regard. Just to give you an example, there are large sections of society that even struggle to get 3G coverage as opposed to coverage in any other shape or form. And, of course, these are many rural areas, but agri-tech is stopped in its tracks by virtue of the fact that they don't even have that basic coverage. So, we already have a lot of this infrastructure in Wales. The investment packages exist through the city deals, and the UK Government's £200 million rural fibre fund. So, we think that Transport for Wales, believe it or not, can act as an enabler for the creation of interconnected, international 5G fibre and space technologies infrastructure for Wales, and the cost of a national digital infrastructure could be in the region of £110 million, with the potential for half of this being covered by the UK Government's rural fibre fund. So, this isn't just about the digital infrastructure in and of itself; it's about positioning Wales at the forefront of new industries. So, what steps are you taking in relation to digital infrastructure to facilitate the development of new industries, which, at the moment, are lagging purely because that isn't in existence?
Welsh: Diolch yn fawr am yr ateb hwnnw, ac rwy'n cydnabod y gwaith ar ddatgarboneiddio, ond roeddwn am ganolbwyntio ar faterion digidol, a chredaf efallai nad yw Cymru'n barod ar gyfer y chwyldro diwydiannol nesaf. Arweiniasom y chwyldro diwydiannol diwethaf, ond rydym yn dal i fod ar ei hôl hi yn hyn o beth. I roi enghraifft i chi, mae rhannau helaeth o'r gymdeithas sy'n ei chael hi'n anodd cael signal 3G hyd yn oed, heb sôn am signal mewn unrhyw siâp neu ffurf arall. Ac wrth gwrs, ceir llawer o ardaloedd gwledig, ond mae technoleg amaethyddol yn cael ei rhwystro'n llwyr yn sgil y ffaith nad oes ganddynt y signal sylfaenol hwnnw. Felly, mae gennym lawer o'r seilwaith hwn yng Nghymru eisoes. Mae'r pecynnau buddsoddi'n bodoli drwy'r bargeinion dinesig, a chronfa ffeibr gwledig £200 miliwn Llywodraeth y DU. Felly, credwn y gall Trafnidiaeth Cymru, credwch neu beidio, fod yn gyfrwng i greu seilwaith technoleg ffeibr 5G a thechnoleg ofod sy'n rhyngwladol a chydgysylltiedig ar gyfer Cymru, ac y gallai cost seilwaith digidol cenedlaethol fod oddeutu £110 miliwn, gyda'r posibilrwydd y bydd hanner y cyllid hwn yn dod o dan gronfa ffeibr gwledig Llywodraeth y DU. Felly, nid ymwneud yn unig â'r seilwaith digidol y mae hyn; mae'n ymwneud â lleoli Cymru ar flaen y gad mewn diwydiannau newydd. Felly, pa gamau rydych yn eu cymryd mewn perthynas â seilwaith digidol i hwyluso datblygiad diwydiannau newydd sydd ar hyn o bryd yn llusgo ar ei hôl hi a hynny'n unig am nad yw'r seilwaith hwnnw'n bodoli?
English: When we were developing the economic action plan, we looked at how best we could drive innovation across Wales in order to drive up productivity rates. And we found that, in similar-sized countries with an economy similar to Wales, it's the diffusion of innovation rather than the development of new innovation that will enable an economy to advance. Therefore, we designed specifically the calls to action around the need for businesses to embrace digitisation. And it's through the prism of the calls to action that businesses now draw down funding. In addition to this, there is, of course, a digital exploitation endeavour that is being led by my deputy, Lee Waters, and I think the Member makes a really valuable point about the potential role of Transport for Wales as well. We've already tasked Transport for Wales to look at how it can encourage the market, the private sector, to deploy electric charging points across Wales, utilising the public asset of railway stations. And I think, moving forward, as we transfer more functions to Transport for Wales, we'll be able to look at them working in even more innovative spaces. I think I should point out as well, though, that in terms of digital infrastructure and the exploitation of it, the north Wales growth deal - I know the Member mentioned growth deals and city deals as a vehicle for this purpose - has as its priority intervention a major digital programme, and I think that should be welcomed.
Welsh: Pan oeddem yn datblygu'r cynllun gweithredu economaidd, edrychasom ar y ffordd orau o hybu arloesedd ledled Cymru er mwyn hybu cyfraddau cynhyrchiant. Ac mewn gwledydd o faint tebyg gydag economi debyg i Gymru, gwelsom mai tryledu arloesedd yn hytrach na datblygu arloesedd newydd sy'n mynd i alluogi economi i symud ymlaen. Felly, rydym wedi cynllunio'n benodol y galwadau i weithredu ar yr angen i fusnesau groesawu digideiddio. A thrwy brism y galwadau i weithredu y mae busnesau bellach yn hawlio cyllid. Yn ogystal â hyn wrth gwrs, mae yna ymdrech ddatblygu digidol sy'n cael ei harwain gan fy nirprwy, Lee Waters, ac rwy'n credu bod yr Aelod yn gwneud pwynt gwerthfawr iawn am rôl bosibl Trafnidiaeth Cymru hefyd. Rydym eisoes wedi gofyn i Trafnidiaeth Cymru ystyried sut y gall annog y farchnad, y sector preifat, i leoli pwyntiau gwefru trydan ledled Cymru, gan ddefnyddio ased cyhoeddus gorsafoedd rheilffordd. Ac rwy'n credu, wrth symud ymlaen, wrth i ni drosglwyddo mwy o swyddogaethau i Trafnidiaeth Cymru, y gallwn edrych arnynt yn gweithio mewn mannau mwy arloesol byth. Er hynny, rwy'n meddwl y dylwn nodi hefyd, o ran seilwaith digidol a'r defnydd ohono, fod rhaglen ddigidol bwysig yn ymyrraeth flaenoriaethol i fargen twf gogledd Cymru - gwn fod yr Aelod wedi sôn am fargeinion twf a bargeinion dinesig fel cyfrwng at y diben hwn - a chredaf y dylid croesawu hynny.
English: Yes, thank you, and we are welcoming of that. I think the next steps are going to be vital, and there's no doubt about that. For us, I think, in Wales, and its partners, we will be able to deliver sectoral opportunities in health, autonomous vehicles, as you've mentioned, with electric vehicles, but not only that but hydrogen, as was mentioned yesterday, big data, artificial intelligence, manufacturing and aerospace. I think they're all part of the reason why the digital landscape needs to be enhanced upon. According to the UK Government's research, the impact of 5G is estimated at £198 billion per annum by 2030, with a 10-year gross domestic product impact of £173 billion between 2020 and 2030. So, we must have an ambition to take a portion of that, and it's been suggested that Wales aims for a 10 per cent share of this, which would mean an uplift in GDP of £17.3 billion from 2020 to 2030. Will the Minister commit to working on a cross-party basis to pool together resources so that we can come up with new ideas in all of the areas that I mentioned earlier in my question, so that we can achieve these aims for Wales together? Because I think what's important is that we jump upon the opportunity to enhance upon the wealth of our nation with the skills that they have, but putting the infrastructure in place to allow them to do that.
Welsh: Ie, diolch, ac rydym yn croesawu hynny. Rwy'n credu bod y camau nesaf yn mynd i fod yn hanfodol, ac nid oes amheuaeth am hynny. I ni yng Nghymru, a'i phartneriaid, credaf y gallwn ddarparu cyfleoedd sectoraidd mewn iechyd, cerbydau awtonomaidd, fel y crybwylloch chi, gyda cherbydau trydan, ond nid yn unig hynny ond hydrogen, fel y soniwyd ddoe, data mawr, deallusrwydd artiffisial, gweithgynhyrchu ac awyrofod. Rwy'n credu eu bod i gyd yn rhan o'r rheswm pam fod angen gwella'r tirlun digidol. Yn ôl ymchwil Llywodraeth y DU, amcangyfrifir y bydd effaith 5G yn £198 biliwn y flwyddyn erbyn 2030, gydag effaith cynnyrch domestig gros 10 mlynedd o £173 biliwn rhwng 2020 a 2030. Felly, rhaid inni gael uchelgais i gymryd cyfran o hwnnw, ac awgrymwyd bod Cymru'n anelu at gyfran o 10 y cant o hyn, a fyddai'n golygu cynnydd o £17.3 biliwn yn y cynnyrch domestig gros rhwng 2020 a 2030. A wnaiff y Gweinidog ymrwymo i weithio ar sail drawsbleidiol i gyfuno adnoddau er mwyn inni allu cyflwyno syniadau newydd ym mhob un o'r meysydd a grybwyllais yn gynharach yn fy nghwestiwn, fel y gallwn gyflawni'r amcanion hyn ar gyfer Cymru gyda'n gilydd? Oherwydd credaf mai'r hyn sy'n bwysig yw ein bod yn neidio ar y cyfle i ehangu cyfoeth ein gwlad gyda'r sgiliau sydd ganddynt, ond gan roi'r seilwaith yn ei le i ganiatáu iddynt wneud hynny.
English: I'd like to welcome Bethan Jenkins's offer and say, yes, that is something that I'd like to proceed with. We certainly have no monopoly on good ideas, and I think it's important that we do recognise that Members across this Chamber have innovative ideas, energy and determination to influence Government policy for the better. So, I would like to take forward that offer. And I'd also say, as the Member has highlighted, that digital transcends all of those traditional sectors; it's part and parcel of all of the traditional sectors that we were prioritising until we developed the digital action plan, and we took digital and we made that a key enabler that crosses over all of the work that we do in terms of supporting business growth.
Welsh: Hoffwn groesawu cynnig Bethan Jenkins a dweud, ydy, mae hynny'n rhywbeth yr hoffwn fwrw ymlaen ag ef. Yn sicr, nid oes gennym fonopoli ar syniadau da, ac rwy'n credu ei bod yn bwysig ein bod yn cydnabod bod gan Aelodau ar draws y Siambr hon syniadau arloesol, egni a phenderfyniad i ddylanwadu ar bolisi'r Llywodraeth er gwell. Felly, hoffwn fwrw ymlaen â'r cynnig hwnnw. Ac fel y mae'r Aelod wedi nodi, hoffwn ddweud bod y sector digidol yn bwysicach na phob un o'r sectorau traddodiadol hynny; mae'n rhan annatod o'r holl sectorau traddodiadol roeddem yn rhoi blaenoriaeth iddynt nes inni ddatblygu'r cynllun gweithredu digidol, a chymerasom y sector digidol a'i wneud yn alluogwr allweddol sy'n croesi'r holl waith a wnawn ar gefnogi twf busnesau.
English: Diolch, Presiding Officer. Minister, can I ask how confident you are that this new commission that you have established to look at the M4 relief road will come to a conclusion in the space of just six months, after, of course, spending £140 million on the project over the last six years? Given that the public inquiry has already looked at 28 different alternatives, what is there new to consider and how confident are you that this new commission's recommendations won't simply be put in the bin by the First Minister if it doesn't conform with his view?
Welsh: Diolch, Lywydd. Weinidog, a gaf fi ofyn pa mor hyderus ydych chi y bydd y comisiwn newydd a sefydlwyd gennych i edrych ar ffordd liniaru'r M4 yn cwblhau ei waith mewn chwe mis yn unig, ar ôl gwario £140 miliwn ar y prosiect dros y chwe blynedd diwethaf wrth gwrs? O gofio bod yr ymchwiliad cyhoeddus eisoes wedi edrych ar 28 dewis gwahanol, beth sydd i'w ystyried o'r newydd a pha mor hyderus ydych chi na fydd argymhellion y comisiwn newydd hwn yn cael eu rhoi yn y bin gan y Prif Weinidog os nad yw'n cydymffurfio â'i farn?
