English: Thank you, Chair. Can I not repeat some of the issues that have been already raised, but just speak particularly for the port of Milford Haven in my region? We've heard, now, that Holyhead is the biggest passenger port, but Milford Haven is the biggest energy port, and some 5,000 jobs are reliant on the energy that comes through the port of Milford Haven. But there are other developments and opportunities there that I want to address in the context of this report - a very good report from the committee - as well. I won't repeat what's been said about Brexit and the need to retain a soft border between Wales and Ireland - I think that's very, very clear in the comments I made in an intervention on the Chair - but I also just want to say this: wouldn't it be ironic if we get rid of the tolls on the Cleddau bridge between the two sides of Milford Haven port, within an enterprise zone, at the same time as we have tolls coming in on goods that are coming through the port, or individuals coming through the port? I think that's just so ironic and so disrespectful, if I can almost put it that way, of the Welsh economy and the way we need to develop the economy in our ports, and Milford Haven in particular. Now, one of the things that is developing in Milford Haven is the alternative energy developments there, and so we want to see - . And there's a link here with the marine plan that we want to see from the Welsh Government. We want to see some sort of decision on the tidal lagoon, because there are engineering companies in the port of Milford Haven that could be part of developing a tidal lagoon in Swansea bay and wider. On Friday, I'm looking forward to visiting Ledwood Engineering and the WaveSub unveiling that's going on there - another alternative wave power device. So, we know the richness of our seas, not only in fish but in energy and in tourism, and the ports are the gateways to exploit that economy. I hope that we'll see - . Next week, I think, there's a statement from the UK Government on green and clean industrial development of some sort. Let's see if there's a commitment there to the tidal lagoon, which is really what we want to see. I think there are two opportunities as well, for Milford Haven, that I'd like to see explored further by the Welsh Government. Let's take fishing, to start with: traditionally not seen as a big thing that we major on in Wales, but that's because our fishing quotas have basically been sold to the Belgians for the last 40 years. When we do have a reconfiguration, coming out of the European Union, we need to ask ourselves whether we can do something around a quota - that's landing our quota, if you see what I mean - whether we can have a way that the Scottish Government has been suggesting, that a certain amount of the Welsh quota has to be landed at Welsh ports, so, once again, we can stamp things 'landed in Wales' or 'landed at the port of Milford Haven' and grow our own then - more fish processing and other ideas around that. The Chesapeake bay that David Melding speaks of isn't far from Milford Haven. A lot of the shellfish could be landed there, processed there - as well as those links with the Irish shellfish industry and fishing industry, including fish farming, which is developing in Ireland and needs markets coming through Wales. So, there's an opportunity to develop our fishing industry and to review the 10m rule around boats as well, because that's been something that's been just enshrined in European legislation. In our ports, we can review that. The second idea has already been mentioned I think, which is the free ports idea. Now, usually, within a customs union, you wouldn't really want free ports, not when you've got a big trading bloc. But there is the opportunity to look at tightly defined areas where excise duty or duties are not exercised, are not raised, in order to allow transit of goods through them. This may be a workable solution in terms of the border between Ireland and Wales. This may be a solution, and one of the areas that that could be applied to is Milford Haven. I'm sure that, if there were to be development of the free port idea by the Welsh Government, then Holyhead and also Cardiff Wales airport would all be very interested in seeing how that could be developed. But it's a possible practical solution in order to unlock some of the difficulties around coming out of the customs union, though I would put on record my own belief that we should remain in the customs union, as the most appropriate and practical way of dealing with the issue of ports and Brexit. So, I hope, whatever happens, we will pay attention to our Welsh ports as real economic drivers and as areas that employ a great deal of people in my region and ones that I want to see taken seriously by the Welsh Government. To that, I very much welcome the report, as it at least puts this on the political map.
Welsh: Diolch, Cadeirydd. A gaf fi beidio ag ailadrodd rhai o'r materion sydd wedi cael sylw eisoes, a siarad yn benodol dros borthladd Aberdaugleddau yn fy rhanbarth? Clywsom yn awr mai Caergybi yw'r porthladd mwyaf o ran teithwyr, ond Aberdaugleddau yw'r porthladd mwyaf o ran ynni, ac mae tua 5,000 o swyddi yn dibynnu ar yr ynni a ddaw trwy borthladd Aberdaugleddau. Ond mae datblygiadau a chyfleoedd eraill yno yr hoffwn fynd ar eu trywydd yng nghyd-destun yr adroddiad hwn - adroddiad da iawn gan y pwyllgor - hefyd. Nid wyf am ailadrodd yr hyn a ddywedwyd am Brexit a'r angen i gadw ffin feddal rhwng Cymru ac Iwerddon - rwy'n credu bod hynny'n glir iawn yn y sylwadau a wneuthum mewn ymyriad ar y Cadeirydd - ond hoffwn ddweud hyn hefyd: oni fyddai'n eironig pe baem yn cael gwared ar y tollau ar bont Cleddau rhwng y ddwy ochr i borthladd Aberdaugleddau, mewn ardal fenter, ar yr un pryd ag y cawn dollau'n dod i mewn ar nwyddau sy'n dod trwy'r porthladd, neu unigolion sy'n dod trwy'r porthladd? Rwy'n credu bod hynny mor eironig ac mor amharchus, os caf ei roi felly bron, o economi Cymru a'r modd y mae angen inni ddatblygu'r economi yn ein porthladdoedd, ac Aberdaugleddau yn arbennig. Nawr, un o'r pethau sy'n datblygu yn Aberdaugleddau yw'r datblygiadau ynni amgen yno, ac felly rydym am weld - . Ac mae cysylltiad yma â'r cynllun morol yr hoffem ei weld gan Lywodraeth Cymru. Rydym am weld rhyw fath o benderfyniad ar y morlyn llanw, oherwydd bod yna gwmnïau peirianneg ym mhorthladd Aberdaugleddau a allai fod yn rhan o ddatblygu morlyn llanw ym mae Abertawe ac yn ehangach. Ddydd Gwener, rwy'n edrych ymlaen at ymweld â Ledwood Engineering a dadorchuddio WaveSub sy'n digwydd yno - dyfais ynni'r tonnau arall amgen. Felly, gwyddom am gyfoeth ein moroedd, nid yn unig o ran pysgod ond o ran ynni ac o ran twristiaeth, a'r porthladdoedd yw'r pyrth i fanteisio ar yr economi honno. Gobeithiaf y gwelwn - . Yr wythnos nesaf, rwy'n meddwl, bydd yna ddatganiad gan Lywodraeth y DU ar ddatblygiad diwydiannol gwyrdd a glân o ryw fath. Gadewch i ni weld a fydd ymrwymiad yno i'r morlyn llanw, sef yr hyn yr ydym o ddifrif am ei weld. Rwy'n meddwl bod yna ddau gyfle hefyd i Aberdaugleddau yr hoffwn eu gweld yn cael eu harchwilio ymhellach gan Lywodraeth Cymru. Cymerwch bysgota, i ddechrau: yn draddodiadol nid yw wedi cael ei weld fel peth mawr yr ydym yn arbenigo arno yng Nghymru, ond y rheswm am hynny yn y bôn yw bod ein cwotâu pysgota wedi cael eu gwerthu i'r Belgiaid dros y 40 mlynedd diwethaf. Pan fyddwn yn ailgyflunio, wrth adael yr Undeb Ewropeaidd, mae angen inni ofyn i ni ein hunain a allwn wneud rhywbeth ynghylch cwota - sef glanio ein cwota, os ydych chi'n gweld beth rwy'n ei feddwl - a allwn gael ffordd debyg i'r un y mae Llywodraeth yr Alban wedi bod yn ei hawgrymu, fod yn rhaid i rywfaint o gwota Cymru gael ei lanio ym mhorthladdoedd Cymru, felly unwaith eto, gallwn roi stamp 'wedi'i lanio yng Nghymru' neu 'wedi'i lanio ym mhorthladd Aberdaugleddau' ar bethau a thyfu ein pethau ein hunain - mwy o brosesu pysgod a syniadau eraill yn ymwneud â hynny. Nid yw'r bae Chesapeake y mae David Melding yn sôn amdano'n bell o Aberdaugleddau. Gellid glanio llawer o'r pysgod cregyn yno, eu prosesu yno - yn ogystal â chysylltiadau â diwydiant pysgod cregyn a diwydiant pysgota Iwerddon, gan gynnwys ffermio pysgod, sy'n datblygu yn Iwerddon ac maent angen marchnadoedd i ddod trwy Gymru. Felly, mae yna gyfle i ddatblygu ein diwydiant pysgota ac i adolygu'r rheol 10m ynghylch cychod hefyd, oherwydd mae hynny'n rhywbeth sydd newydd ei ymgorffori mewn deddfwriaeth Ewropeaidd. Yn ein porthladdoedd, gallwn adolygu hynny. Mae'r ail syniad eisoes wedi cael ei grybwyll rwy'n meddwl, sef y syniad o borthladdoedd rhydd. Nawr, fel arfer, mewn undeb tollau, ni fyddech eisiau porthladdoedd rhydd mewn gwirionedd os oes gennych floc masnachu mawr. Ond mae yna gyfle i edrych ar feysydd a ddiffinnir yn fanwl lle nad oes toll neu dollau cartref mewn grym, yn cael eu codi, er mwyn caniatáu i nwyddau gael eu cludo drwyddynt. Gall hwn fod yn ateb ymarferol o ran y ffin rhwng Iwerddon a Chymru. Gall fod yn ateb, ac un o'r ardaloedd y gellid ei roi ar waith ynddi yw Aberdaugleddau. Pe bai Llywodraeth Cymru'n datblygu'r syniad o borthladd rhydd, rwy'n siŵr y byddai Caergybi a hefyd maes awyr Cymru Caerdydd â diddordeb mawr mewn gweld sut y gellid datblygu hynny. Ond mae'n ateb ymarferol posibl er mwyn datgloi rhai o'r anawsterau sydd ynghlwm wrth adael yr undeb tollau, er yr hoffwn gofnodi fy nghred y dylem aros yn yr undeb tollau, fel y ffordd fwyaf priodol ac ymarferol o ymdrin â phorthladdoedd a Brexit. Felly, rwy'n gobeithio, beth bynnag sy'n digwydd, y byddwn yn rhoi sylw i'n porthladdoedd yng Nghymru fel ysgogwyr economaidd go iawn ac fel ardaloedd sy'n cyflogi llawer iawn o bobl yn fy rhanbarth ac rwyf am weld Llywodraeth Cymru yn bod o ddifrif yn eu cylch. O ran hynny, rwy'n croesawu'r adroddiad yn fawr iawn, gan ei fod o leiaf yn rhoi hyn ar y map gwleidyddol.
