English: Diolch, Llywydd. I'm very grateful for the contributions of members past and present of the Standards of Conduct Committee. I'm not quite sure what it says when I'm the only original member left of this committee, but I'm still here for now anyway. Thank you, all. Paul mentioned in particular the work that has been done, but recognising that we must not take a step back, and I can assure you that we will not be taking any step back. Paul also asked me to confirm whether the committee will be returning to anonymous reporting and the contact officer and work around social media and the guidance, and we will be returning to that and we are looking to do a big piece of work on social media guidance as well, which I think everybody here would agree is crucial. So, there's that point. I welcome Helen Mary to your position on the Standards of Conduct Committee, and thank you for your contribution as well. Paul and Helen Mary and Llyr mentioned the ministerial code. For us, with recommendation 12, we feel that the system of separate codes existing in Wales is comparable with other provisions in other UK Parliaments, but we did believe as a committee that Wales could take a bold step to improve provision and increase confidence in the system. As a committee, we concluded that bringing this under the responsibility of the standards commissioner - . Although this has been rejected, the committee is open to working with Government to improve transparency. We're obviously interested in the written statement that's to come before us, and I'm sure that the committee will want to pursue this further with the next First Minister. Jane Hutt, a very powerful contribution from you mentioning the respect and dignity training that has been open to all Members and staff here. I hope that everybody has had the opportunity to take that up. Also, you pointed to the cross-party work that is going on, not just within the committee but in other forums as well, but there is much further to go. Llyr and many colleagues also mentioned the power imbalance and that came through when we received the evidence as well. I think we have a real clear aim about empowering people, and we need to make sure that we do listen to everybody who is coming forward and make sure that we are as fair and transparent as possible. Llyr also mentioned the right to appeal, which is our last recommendation, recommendation 21. On that, the committee will bring forward proposals for amending the appeal provision in a procedure for dealing with complaints by the end of this year. So, we will be doing some work on that. I'd like to thank the leader of the house for her comments and the commitment to work on creating the right environment, although I'm sure you've heard Members' concerns on the rejection of recommendation 12. Everybody must have an understanding of what constitutes inappropriate behaviour so they'll know if they experience it themselves or see it happening to somebody else. We want to encourage a wide and diverse range of people into politics, and to do this we need a culture that is inclusive and enabling. Evidence received by the committee suggests that there have been a number of incidents of sexual harassment at the Assembly and these have not been formally reported, and the committee is of the view that it's completely unacceptable that people have felt unable to report their experiences. And, just finally, I'd like to say that the cultural change required is not achievable overnight; it's going to take a long-term commitment and dedication. This report is the very start of that important conversation with the committee, and we welcome feedback on our recommendations. We encourage people to make suggestions regarding further steps that might be taken in future, and we will continue to learn and listen to others on this. We all have a responsibility to ensure that we set the very highest standards, and we're determined to create the right environment.
Welsh: Diolch, Lywydd. Rwy'n ddiolchgar iawn am gyfraniadau aelodau presennol a chyn-aelodau'r Pwyllgor Safonau Ymddygiad. Nid wyf yn hollol siŵr beth y mae'r ffaith mai fi yw'r unig aelod gwreiddiol sydd ar ôl o'r pwyllgor hwn yn ei ddweud, ond rwy'n dal yma ar hyn o bryd beth bynnag. Diolch i chi gyd. Crybwyllodd Paul yn arbennig y gwaith sydd wedi'i wneud, ond gan gydnabod na allwn gymryd cam yn ôl, a hoffwn eich sicrhau na fyddwn yn camu'n ôl o gwbl. Gofynnodd Paul hefyd i mi gadarnhau pa un a fydd y pwyllgor yn dychwelyd at adrodd dienw a'r swyddog cyswllt a'r gwaith mewn perthynas â'r cyfryngau cymdeithasol a'r canllawiau, a byddwn yn dychwelyd at hynny ac rydym yn bwriadu gwneud gwaith pwysig ar ganllawiau cyfryngau cymdeithasol hefyd, ac rwy'n credu y byddai pawb yma yn cytuno fod hynny'n hollbwysig. Felly, dyna'r pwynt hwnnw. Rwy'n croesawu Helen Mary i'ch lle yn y Pwyllgor Safonau Ymddygiad, a diolch i chi am eich cyfraniad hefyd. Soniodd Paul a Helen Mary a Llyr am god y Gweinidogion. I ni, gydag argymhelliad 12, rydym yn teimlo bod y system o godau ar wahân sy'n bodoli yng Nghymru yn cymharu â darpariaethau eraill yn Seneddau eraill y DU, ond roeddem yn credu fel pwyllgor y gallai Cymru gymryd cam beiddgar ymlaen i wella darpariaeth a chynyddu hyder yn y system. Fel pwyllgor, daethom i'r casgliad fod gwneud hyn yn rhan o gyfrifoldeb y comisiynydd safonau - . Er bod hyn wedi'i wrthod, mae'r pwyllgor yn agored i weithio gyda'r Llywodraeth i wella tryloywder. Yn amlwg, mae gennym ddiddordeb yn y datganiad ysgrifenedig sydd i ddod ger ein bron, ac rwy'n siŵr y bydd y pwyllgor am fynd ar drywydd hyn ymhellach gyda'r Prif Weinidog nesaf. Jane Hutt, cyfraniad grymus iawn gennych chi yn sôn am yr hyfforddiant parch ac urddas sydd wedi bod yn agored i'r holl Aelodau a staff yma. Rwy'n gobeithio bod pawb wedi cael cyfle i fynd ar drywydd hynny. Hefyd, fe gyfeirioch chi at y gwaith trawsbleidiol sydd ar y gweill, nid yn unig o fewn y pwyllgor ond mewn fforymau eraill hefyd, ond mae angen mynd yn llawer pellach. Soniodd Llyr a llawer o gyd-Aelodau hefyd am yr anghydbwysedd grym a daeth hynny'n amlwg pan glywsom y dystiolaeth yn ogystal. Credaf fod gennym nod clir go iawn mewn perthynas â grymuso pobl, ac mae angen inni wneud yn siŵr ein bod yn gwrando ar bawb sy'n gwneud cwyn ac yn sicrhau ein bod mor deg a thryloyw â phosibl. Soniodd Llyr hefyd am yr hawl i apelio, sef ein hargymhelliad olaf, argymhelliad 21. Ar hynny, bydd y pwyllgor yn cyflwyno cynigion ar gyfer diwygio'r ddarpariaeth apelio mewn gweithdrefn ar gyfer ymdrin â chwynion erbyn diwedd y flwyddyn. Felly, byddwn yn gwneud gwaith ar hynny. Hoffwn ddiolch i arweinydd y tŷ am ei sylwadau a'r ymrwymiad i weithio ar greu'r amgylchedd cywir, er fy mod yn siŵr eich bod wedi clywed pryderon yr Aelodau ynglŷn â gwrthod argymhelliad 12. Rhaid i bawb gael dealltwriaeth o'r hyn sy'n ymddygiad amhriodol fel y byddant yn gwybod os ydynt yn ei brofi eu hunain neu'n ei weld yn digwydd i rywun arall. Rydym am annog ystod eang ac amrywiol o bobl i ddod i mewn i wleidyddiaeth, ac i wneud hynny mae angen diwylliant sy'n gynhwysol ac sy'n galluogi. Awgryma'r dystiolaeth a gafodd y pwyllgor fod nifer o achosion o aflonyddu rhywiol wedi bod yn y Cynulliad ac nad yw'r rhain wedi cael eu hadrodd yn ffurfiol, ac mae'r pwyllgor o'r farn ei bod yn gwbl annerbyniol fod pobl yn teimlo na allant roi gwybod am eu profiadau. Ac yn olaf, hoffwn ddweud nad oes modd cyflawni'r newid diwylliannol sydd ei angen dros nos; mae'n mynd i gymryd ymrwymiad ac ymroddiad hirdymor. Yr adroddiad hwn yw dechrau'r sgwrs bwysig honno gyda'r pwyllgor, ac rydym yn croesawu adborth ar ein hargymhellion. Rydym yn annog pobl i wneud awgrymiadau ynglŷn â chamau pellach y gellid eu cymryd yn y dyfodol, a byddwn yn parhau i ddysgu ac i wrando ar eraill ar hyn. Mae gennym oll gyfrifoldeb i sicrhau ein bod yn gosod y safonau uchaf, ac rydym yn benderfynol o greu'r amgylchedd cywir.
