English: Well, thank you for that. I think we're broadly in agreement; it's just about the best way to do it. So, we have tended to speak colloquially in terms of abolishing a no-fault eviction, but, actually, all the legislatures that have so-called abolished a no-fault eviction have simply substituted a whole series of arrangements in which a tenant can be evicted through no fault of their own. So, for example, there are 18 separate grounds under which this can be done in Scotland. We're not yet clear what the English equivalent of that will be, but, for example, if you have a landlord that requires possession of the property because otherwise they would themselves be homeless, then, in Scotland, you would be required to go through a process by which you'd prove that you were going to either sell the house or you required it for yourself and so on. Those have proven costly and quite difficult to enforce. I'm not quite clear yet where England is going with that, but we imagine something similar. In Wales, we have a very large number of private sector landlords, who are perfectly good landlords, excellent to have a relationship with, where, actually, they own one house, because, for example, a couple have got together and they had two houses and now they live in one of them, and, if that relationship breaks down, that couple may well need that house back. What we're doing is trying to get a balance between the needs of a landlord in that circumstance and the needs of the tenants to be able to organise their lives and find themselves somewhere else to live in a reasonable set of circumstances. So, these are all balances, and I'm very much looking forward to working with the committee to work through what the balances might be. We think we've come to the right balance in extending the notice period, so that, in an initial period you have a year, but in any other circumstance you have six months in order to find yourself and your family somewhere else to go, and, in the meantime, the landlord can probably make other arrangements for that period in order to retain the house. In circumstances in other jurisdictions where, for example, the landlord is saying that they need to sell - rather than taking up time now, we can all think of circumstances in which a legitimate landlord might want to sell and then the sale falls through, or a whole number of other things that can happen. So, what we've done is try to provide some certainty on both sides of that line and get a good balance between the rights of the tenant and the rights of the landlord, and I've set out today, Deputy Presiding Officer, what the 2016 Act is also doing in terms of security of tenure, because I think it's really - . Because the Act has not been brought into force, it's very possible to think of this extension of the notice period in terms of the Housing Act 1998 itself, rather than in terms of our Act, which would fundamentally change the landscape in Wales anyway.
Welsh: Wel, diolch i chi am hynny. Rwy'n credu ein bod ni'n lled gytûn; ond mae'n ymwneud â'r ffordd orau o fynd ati. Felly, rydym wedi tueddu i sgwrsio am ddileu troi allan heb fai. Ond mewn gwirionedd, yr unig beth a wnaeth yr holl ddeddfwrfeydd sydd wedi dileu troi allan heb fai oedd disodli cyfres gyfan o drefniadau lle gellir troi tenant allan heb fod yna fai arno ef. Felly, er enghraifft, mae 18 o resymau ar wahân ar gyfer gwneud hyn yn yr Alban. Nid yw'n glir eto beth fydd yn cyfateb i hynny yn Lloegr. Ond, er enghraifft, os oes gennych chi landlord sy'n gofyn am feddiannu eiddo oherwydd fel arall fe fyddai ef ei hun yn ddigartref, yna, yn yr Alban, byddai'n ofynnol iddo fynd trwy broses o brofi ei fod naill ai'n mynd i werthu'r tŷ neu fod ei angen arno ef ei hun, ac yn y blaen. Bu hyn yn gostus ac yn eithaf anodd ei orfodi. Nid wyf yn hollol glir eto i ba gyfeiriad y mae Lloegr yn mynd gyda hynny, ond dychmygwn ei fod yn rhywbeth tebyg i hynny. Yng Nghymru, mae gennym nifer fawr iawn o landlordiaid sector preifat, sy'n landlordiaid da a rhagorol i gael perthynas gyda nhw, ac maen nhw'n berchen ar un tŷ, oherwydd, er enghraifft, mae pâr wedi dod at ei gilydd ac roedd ganddyn nhw ddau dŷ ond bellach maent yn byw yn un ohonyn nhw, ac os yw'r berthynas honno'n chwalu, mae'n ddigon posibl y bydd angen y tŷ hwnnw'n ôl ar y pâr. Yr hyn yr ydym ni'n ei wneud yw ceisio cael cydbwysedd rhwng anghenion landlord yn yr amgylchiadau hynny ac anghenion y tenantiaid i allu trefnu eu bywydau a chael rhywle arall iddyn nhw fyw mewn amgylchiadau rhesymol. Felly, mae'n rhaid cadw cydbwysedd rhwng y rhain i gyd, ac rwy'n edrych ymlaen yn fawr at weithio gyda'r Pwyllgor i weithio drwy'r hyn y gallai'r cydbwysedd ei olygu. Credwn ein bod ni wedi cael y cydbwysedd iawn o ran ymestyn y cyfnod rhybudd, fel bod blwyddyn gennych chi, yn y cyfnod dechreuol, ond mewn unrhyw amgylchiad arall mae gennych chwe mis i gael rywle arall i chi eich hun a'ch teulu fynd iddo, ac, yn y cyfamser, mae'n debyg y gall y landlord wneud trefniadau eraill ar gyfer y cyfnod hwnnw er mwyn cadw'r tŷ. Mewn amgylchiadau mewn awdurdodaethau eraill, lle mae'r landlord, er enghraifft, yn dweud bod angen iddo werthu - yn hytrach na threulio amser nawr, fe all pob un ohonom feddwl am amgylchiadau lle gallai landlord teg ddymuno gwerthu a'r gwerthiant yn syrthio trwyddo, neu fe allai nifer fawr o bethau eraill ddigwydd. Felly, yr hyn yr ydym ni wedi ei wneud yw ceisio rhoi rhywfaint o sicrwydd ar y ddwy ochr a chael cydbwysedd da rhwng hawliau'r tenant a hawliau'r landlord. Ac rwyf wedi nodi heddiw, Dirprwy Lywydd, yr hyn y mae Deddf 2016 yn ei wneud o ran sicrwydd deiliadaeth hefyd, oherwydd rwy'n credu ei bod yn wir - . Gan nad yw'r Ddeddf wedi dod i rym, mae'n bosibl ystyried yr estyniad hwn i'r cyfnod rhybudd o ran Deddf Tai 1998 ei hun, yn hytrach nag o ran ein Deddf ni, a fyddai'n newid y dirwedd yn sylfaenol yng Nghymru beth bynnag.
