English: Thank you, Minister. Bus services are an essential means of travel for people all over Wales, but the reason that we're discussing this today, evidently, is the need to reform the system. Fewer and fewer people are opting to use bus services, which is putting the system under strain. We've heard already this afternoon many of the reasons why people are less likely to use buses - changes in behaviour, such as online shopping; too many cars on the roads; COVID; and many other factors - but, as you've set out, Deputy Minister, buses serve an entirely essential role. They offer an alternative way of travelling for people who don't own a car, but they are also so much better for the environment. As it stands, around 14 per cent of Wales's carbon emissions stem from transport. I'm sure you will be very aware of these figures, so we really do need to see a drastic change here. And I welcome the fact that a drastic change is being promoted here. What I want to know from the Minister is - . You've said a lot in terms of your vision for the electrification of buses across Wales. You said that you want to do the right thing and the easiest thing. Is that the way that you would summarise your vision for this system, particularly, perhaps, in a way that people would understand and support, to try to get people to buy into the need for change? Another thing that needs to be addressed is transport poverty. Transport for Wales has found that 13 per cent of households in Wales are households that don't have access to a car, and that 25 per cent of people who use buses are living with a disability or a long-term health condition. Providing access to public transport for people facing those kinds of difficulties is vital. Minister, would you be able to outline how any reforms would improve the affordability of buses and also how accessible they are? I have previously raised concerns about improving how safe women feel, not only when using public transport, but also when getting to the bus or the train, and this is especially the case at night. I'd welcome some comments from you in that. And finally, the transport system in Wales is not sufficiently interconnected. This has already been raised this afternoon; we all know about that. Too often, walking and cycling routes, and essential services such as schools and hospitals, as you discussed with Natasha Asghar, are not sufficiently connected to the transport system. This all needs to work around the reality of people's lives. So, Minister, what are you going to do to deal with not only that but to ensure that we can try to have behavioural change to accompany the structural changes, because they need to go hand in hand? I know that that is one of the biggest challenges that you will face. Thank you.
Welsh: Diolch, Gweinidog. Mae gwasanaethau bws yn fodd angenrheidiol o deithio ar gyfer pobl dros Gymru gyfan, ond y rheswm rŷn ni'n trafod hyn heddiw, yn amlwg, ydy'r angen am ddiwygio'r system. Mae llai a llai o bobl yn penderfynu defnyddio gwasanaethau bws, sy'n rhoi'r system dan straen. Dŷn ni wedi clywed yn barod y prynhawn yma, dwi'n meddwl, rhai o'r rhesymau pam mae pobl yn llai tebygol, efallai, o ddefnyddio gwasanaethau bws - newidiadau mewn ymddygiad, fel siopa ar-lein; gormod o geir ar yr hewlydd; COVID; a nifer o resymau eraill - ond, fel dŷch chi wedi bod yn gosod mas, Ddirprwy Weinidog, mae bysys yn gwneud gwaith hollol angenrheidiol. Maen nhw'n cynnig ffordd amgen o deithio i bobl sydd ddim gyda char, ac maen nhw, wrth gwrs, hefyd cymaint gwell ar gyfer yr amgylchfyd. Fel mae'n sefyll, mae tua 14 y cant o allyriadau carbon Cymru yn deillio o drafnidiaeth. Dwi'n siŵr byddwch chi'n fwy nag ymwybodol o'r ffigurau yma, felly mae gwir angen gweld newid syfrdanol yma. Dwi wir yn croesawu'r ffaith bod newid syfrdanol yn cael ei wthio fan hyn. Beth buaswn i eisiau gwybod gan y Gweinidog - . Dŷch chi wedi dweud lot o ran beth yw eich gwelediad chi, eich vision chi, ar gyfer trydaneiddio bysys dros Gymru. Dŷch chi'n dweud eich bod chi gwneud y peth iawn i'w wneud, y peth mwyaf hawdd i'w wneud. Ife dyna'r ffordd fyddech chi'n crynhoi eich gwelediad chi ar gyfer y system yma i gyd, yn enwedig, efallai, mewn ffordd fyddai pobl yn ei ddeall ac yn ei gefnogi, i geisio cael pobl i gytuno gyda'r angen am newid? Rhywbeth arall buaswn i eisiau mynd i'r afael ag e ydy tlodi trafnidiaeth. Mae Trafnidiaeth Cymru wedi darganfod bod 13 y cant o dai Cymru yn dai sydd heb fynediad at gar, a bod 25 y cant o'r bobl sy'n defnyddio bysys yn byw gydag anabledd neu gyflwr iechyd hir dymor. Mae mynediad at drafnidiaeth cyhoeddus ar gyfer pobl sy'n wynebu anawsterau fel yna yn hollbwysig. A fyddech chi, Weinidog, yn gallu gosod mas fel bydd unrhyw ddiwygiadau - ym mha ffyrdd bydd unrhyw ddiwygiadau - yn gwella pa mor fforddiadwy ydy bysys, a hefyd pa mor hygyrch ydyn nhw? Rwy wedi codi o'r blaen fy mhryderon am wella pa mor saff mae menywod yn teimlo, nid yn unig ar drafnidiaeth cyhoeddus, ond hefyd wrth gyrraedd y bysys neu'r trenau hefyd, yn enwedig gyda'r nos. Buaswn i'n croesawu clywed gennych chi ar hwnna. Ac yn olaf, dydy'r system drafnidiaeth yng Nghymru ddim wedi ei chyd-gysylltu yn ddigonol. Mae hwn wedi codi yn barod y prynhawn yma; rŷn ni i gyd yn gwybod hwnna. Yn rhy aml, dydy ffyrdd cerdded, seiclo a gwasanaethau hanfodol fel ysgolion ac ysbytai, fel roeddech chi newydd fod yn trafod gyda Natasha Asghar, ddim wedi'u cysylltu'n ddigonol gyda'r system drafnidiaeth. Mae angen i hyn oll weithio o gwmpas realiti bywydau pobl. Beth ydych chi, Weinidog, yn mynd i'w wneud i ddelio nid yn unig gyda hynny ond i wneud yn siŵr ein bod ni'n gallu ceisio cael y newid ymddygiad i gyd-fynd gyda'r newidiadau strwythurol hyn, achos maen nhw angen mynd law yn llaw? Rwy'n gwybod dyna un o'r sialensiau mwyaf fydd gennych chi. Diolch.
