English: Llywydd, can I thank David Rowlands for his comments and his questions? I very much welcome what David has said about the report and the various recommendations contained within it and the need for the UK Government to play an active role and, indeed, the need for various groups, including the Magor action group, to be participants in designing transport solutions within the community. I said in my statement how many of the decisions need to be made locally, and it's my belief that groups such as the Magor action group, with whom I've met in the past, with John Griffiths and Jessica Morden, will play a critical role in helping to design solutions to the problems that are faced in and around Newport. Of course, David Rowlands makes the important point that the M4 is a key artery for the economy of south Wales, but that it can't be the only artery, and that a public transport artery is needed to complement the M4 and, indeed, to offer an effective alternative to using the M4, particularly with a private vehicle. Integration, David Rowlands rightly pointed out, is critically important. To ensure this, we're setting up that delivery unit, we've entered into a memorandum of understanding with the local authority, and Transport for Wales are playing a greater role in terms of integrating bus and active travel and rail transport as well. Indeed, Transport for Wales, currently in this year, are undertaking a major mapping exercise regarding the provision of bus services as we seek to introduce, in the next Senedd term, legislation to take greater control over the provision of bus services so that we can truly integrate them with rail services and with the provision of active travel infrastructure. Delivery in terms of the devolution of rail infrastructure and funding is hugely important. I agree entirely with David Rowlands that the ideal solution to this would be the devolution of rail infrastructure and the fair funding to go with it. In the absence of such a willingness to do so, we fully expect the union connectivity review and the Williams review to offer vehicles for the UK Government to deliver on a leveling-up agenda that requires additional and significant investment in Wales, particularly in regard to upgrading main lines, both in south Wales and in north Wales. I think David Rowlands is also correct in outlining the importance of accessibility to public transport solutions, particularly in ensuring that they're well connected to active travel infrastructure. I'm pleased to say that coming from the review is a very clear indication that, if all of the recommendations are delivered and implemented correctly, then 90 per cent of people in the region would live within just one mile of a bus corridor or a rail hub. That would be a huge game changer in terms of rolling out full accessibility for the population of south-east Wales, and, of course, we do know that that final mile can be vitally important in encouraging people to undertake active travel to improve their health and well-being. So, I very much welcome the point made by David Rowlands concerning accessibility. And, finally, I would also agree with his point that the Welsh Government and the UK Government need to work very closely in delivering on the Burns report and recommendations, and I look forward to doing just that with UK Government counterparts.
Welsh: Llywydd, a gaf i ddiolch i David Rowlands am ei sylwadau a'i gwestiynau? Rwy'n croesawu'r hyn a ddywedodd David am yr adroddiad a'r argymhellion amrywiol sydd ynddo ef yn fawr iawn, a'r angen i Lywodraeth y DU fod â rhan weithredol ac, yn wir, yr angen i wahanol grwpiau, gan gynnwys grŵp gweithredu Magwyr, fod â rhan wrth gynllunio datrysiadau yn y gymuned o ran trafnidiaeth. Fe ddywedais i yn fy natganiad y bydd angen gwneud rhyw gymaint o'r penderfyniadau yn lleol, ac rwy'n credu y bydd gan grwpiau fel grŵp gweithredu Magwyr, yr wyf i wedi cyfarfod â nhw yn y gorffennol, gyda John Griffiths a Jessica Morden, swyddogaeth hollbwysig wrth helpu i gynllunio datrysiadau i'r problemau sy'n wynebu Casnewydd a'r cyffiniau. Wrth gwrs, mae David Rowlands yn gwneud y pwynt pwysig bod yr M4 yn wythïen allweddol i economi'r de, ond ni all honno fod yn unig wythïen, a bod angen gwythïen trafnidiaeth gyhoeddus i ategu'r M4 ac, yn wir, i gynnig dewis amgen effeithiol i ddefnyddio'r M4, yn enwedig mewn cerbyd preifat. Mae integreiddio, fel y nododd David Rowlands yn briodol, yn hollbwysig. I sicrhau hyn, rydym yn bwriadu sefydlu'r uned gyflenwi honno, rydym wedi ymrwymo i femorandwm cyd-ddealltwriaeth gyda'r awdurdod lleol, ac mae gan Drafnidiaeth Cymru swyddogaeth fwy o ran integreiddio trafnidiaeth bysiau a theithio llesol a rheilffyrdd hefyd. Yn wir, mae Trafnidiaeth Cymru, yn gyfredol eleni, yn cynnal ymarfer mapio mawr o ran darparu gwasanaethau bysiau wrth inni geisio cyflwyno, yn y tymor Seneddol nesaf, ddeddfwriaeth i gymryd mwy o reolaeth dros ddarparu gwasanaethau bysiau fel y gallwn ni eu hintegreiddio nhw'n wirioneddol gyda gwasanaethau rheilffyrdd a darparu seilwaith o ran teithio llesol. Mae cyflawni o ran datganoli seilwaith a chyllid rheilffyrdd yn eithriadol o bwysig. Rwy'n cytuno'n llwyr â David Rowlands mai'r ateb delfrydol i hyn fyddai datganoli seilwaith rheilffyrdd a'r cyllid teg i gyd-fynd â hynny. Yn absenoldeb y parodrwydd i wneud hynny, rydym y disgwyl i adolygiad cysylltedd yr undeb ac adolygiad Williams gynnig cyfryngau i Lywodraeth y DU gyflawni ar agenda codi lefel sy'n gofyn am fuddsoddiad ychwanegol a sylweddol yng Nghymru, yn enwedig o ran uwchraddio prif leiniau, yn y de ac yn y gogledd. Rwy'n credu bod David Rowlands yn gywir hefyd i amlinellu pwysigrwydd hygyrchedd o ran datrysiadau trafnidiaeth gyhoeddus, yn enwedig o ran sicrhau eu bod nhw â chysylltiadau addas â seilwaith teithio llesol. Rwy'n falch o ddweud fod yna arwydd eglur iawn yn deillio o'r adolygiad. Pe caiff yr holl argymhellion eu cyflawni a'u gweithredu yn gymwys, fe fyddai 90 y cant o bobl y rhanbarth yn byw o fewn un filltir yn unig i goridor bysiau neu ganolfan reilffordd. Fe fyddai hwnnw'n newid enfawr o ran cyflwyno hygyrchedd llawn i boblogaeth y de-ddwyrain, ac, wrth gwrs, fe wyddom y gall y filltir olaf honno fod yn hanfodol bwysig o ran annog pobl i ymgymryd â theithio llesol er mwyn eu hiechyd a'u lles nhw. Felly, rwy'n croesawu'r pwynt a wnaeth David Rowlands ynghylch hygyrchedd yn fawr iawn. Ac, yn olaf, rwy'n cytuno â'i bwynt ef hefyd fod angen i Lywodraeth Cymru a Llywodraeth y DU weithio'n agos iawn â'i gilydd i gyflawni ar adroddiad ac argymhellion Burns, ac rwy'n edrych ymlaen at wneud hynny gyda chymheiriaid yn Llywodraeth y DU.
