English: The first thing that I want to say as a member of the committee was we heard overwhelming support from the Federation of Small Businesses, the Trades Union Congress and the Confederation of British Industry as to their satisfaction with the level of engagement with the Welsh Government and Welsh officials - I think it's worth saying that at the outset - and all the work that went behind that, in making sure that all the numerous schemes that were put into place immediately, in a very, very short time frame, were put forward through mechanisms that people could both apply to and receive the funds from that. I'm not going to rehearse all the gaps that we've heard about; other people have already done that. But I listened closely yesterday to this 'build, build, build' announcement from the UK Government and immediately the one thing that struck me, apart from the very obvious that there are no consequentials so therefore there's no new money, so there's no care for Wales, was this old-fashioned idea again that you can bring out of a crisis jobs that actually only look at, really, one sector of the economy, and therefore you miss large numbers of people who need help out of those schemes immediately. And it's fairly obvious, if you look at the stats on construction, that means women will be left behind, because they don't feature in that economy anyway. The highest figure you will find is 11 per cent and, on site, it's simply 1 per cent. So, that isn't actually going to build much in the way of employment for those people outside of that. Having said all of that, we have seen, in the very recent past, the agility of companies in Wales to step up and immediately put in processes and systems to deliver those things that we've needed, from ventilators to masks, or handwashes. So, they've been innovative and they've been fleet of foot in that innovation, and I think it's alluded to here in these recommendations. It's that, I think, that we could do to drive the economy forward as we come out. The other sector, of course, that's been fleet of foot - and it's not capital investment that's needed - is the care sector, and Helen Mary quite rightly pointed to that. Evidence is already emerging about the impact of coronavirus on some individuals, and the ongoing care needs that those individuals will have. And that, really, is just in the first wave. I'm not wishing for a second wave; nobody is. But if we see a repeat of that, unfortunately we're also going to see greater needs within the care sector. So, we need some revenue investment as well as capital investment to take us out and take us forward. And it has been noted - quite rightly noted - that those are the people that we ultimately need to take society forward in times of extreme need. It is the case that they've been undervalued in the past, both within society's ways of thinking about people in the care sector but also in the remuneration that they've received for doing those jobs. So, I suppose my plea to you today, going forward, is to look for those individuals in terms of their training, their status, and let's not - . When we're talking about building back better, let's at least understand that those people who need us to build back better for them in their employment actually receive that recognition in all aspects. And, of course, the other area that would have been addressed now, but it isn't, because we're in this particular time and space, is the bus services in Wales. There would have been a Bill finding its way through the Welsh Parliament at the moment, and there would have been many more people journeying through particularly my area in Wales on buses. That, sadly, is not the case at the moment, and, whilst I am really concerned that we don't leave people behind, I'm equally concerned that we don't literally leave them behind, stuck in rural Wales with no form of transport, because so many people - particularly people who don't have funds and young people, disabled people, elderly residents and free bus pass holders - rely on that mode of transport.
Welsh: Y peth cyntaf yr wyf i eisiau ei ddweud fel aelod o'r pwyllgor oedd ein bod wedi clywed cefnogaeth aruthrol gan Ffederasiwn y Busnesau Bach, Cyngres yr Undebau Llafur a Chydffederasiwn Diwydiant Prydain o ran eu boddhad â lefel yr ymgysylltu â Llywodraeth Cymru a swyddogion Cymru - rwy'n credu ei bod hi'n werth dweud hynny o'r dechrau - a'r holl waith a oedd y tu ôl i hynny, wrth sicrhau bod yr holl gynlluniau niferus a roddwyd ar waith ar unwaith, mewn cyfnod byr iawn o amser, wedi eu cyflwyno drwy ddulliau y gallai pobl wneud cais iddynt a chael yr arian o hynny. Dydw i ddim yn mynd i ailadrodd yr holl fylchau yr ydym ni wedi clywed amdanyn nhw; mae pobl eraill eisoes wedi gwneud hynny. Ond gwrandewais yn astud ddoe ar y cyhoeddiad 'adeiladu, adeiladu, adeiladu' hwn gan Lywodraeth y DU ac, ar unwaith, yr un peth a'm trawodd i, ar wahân i'r hyn a oedd yn amlwg iawn, sef nad oes unrhyw symiau canlyniadol felly nid oes arian newydd, felly nid oes unrhyw ofal am Gymru, oedd y syniad hen ffasiwn hwn unwaith eto y gallwch chi ddod â swyddi allan o argyfwng nad ydyn nhw ond yn edrych, mewn gwirionedd, ar un sector o'r economi, ac felly rydych yn colli niferoedd mawr o bobl y mae angen cymorth arnyn nhw o'r cynlluniau hynny ar unwaith. Ac mae'n weddol amlwg, os edrychwch chi ar yr ystadegau ar adeiladu, bod hynny'n golygu y bydd menywod yn cael eu gadael ar ôl, oherwydd nad ydyn nhw'n rhan o'r economi honno beth bynnag. Y ffigur uchaf y byddwch yn ei weld yw 11 y cant ac, ar y safle, dim ond 1 y cant ydyw. Felly, nid yw hynny mewn gwirionedd yn mynd i adeiladu llawer o ran cyflogaeth ar gyfer y bobl hynny y tu allan i hynny. Wedi dweud hynny i gyd, rydym ni wedi gweld, yn y gorffennol diweddar iawn, ystwythder cwmnïau yng Nghymru i gamu ymlaen a rhoi prosesau a systemau ar waith ar unwaith i gyflawni'r pethau hynny yr oedd eu hangen arnom, o awyryddion i fygydau, neu hylif golchi dwylo. Felly, maen nhw wedi bod yn arloesol ac maen nhw wedi bod yn gyflym i arloesi, ac rwy'n credu y cyfeirir ato yma yn yr argymhellion hyn. Dyna, rwy'n credu, y gallem ni ei wneud i ysgogi'r economi yn ei blaen wrth i ni ddod allan o hyn. Y sector arall, wrth gwrs, a fu'n gyflym - ac nid buddsoddiad cyfalaf sydd ei angen - yw'r sector gofal, a chyfeiriodd Helen Mary yn gwbl briodol at hynny. Mae tystiolaeth eisoes yn dod i'r amlwg am effaith y coronafeirws ar rai unigolion, a'r anghenion gofal parhaus a fydd gan yr unigolion hynny. Ac, mewn gwirionedd, yn y don gyntaf yn unig y mae hynny. Dydw i ddim eisiau ail don; does neb eisiau hynny. Ond os gwelwn ni ail don, yn anffodus rydym ni hefyd yn mynd i weld mwy o anghenion yn y sector gofal. Felly, mae angen rhywfaint o fuddsoddiad refeniw arnom ni yn ogystal â buddsoddiad cyfalaf i fynd â ni allan a'n symud ni yn ein blaenau. Ac mae wedi ei nodi - wedi ei nodi'n gwbl briodol - mai'r rhai hynny yw'r bobl y mae eu hangen arnom i fynd â chymdeithas yn eu blaen yn y pen draw mewn cyfnod o angen eithafol. Mae'n wir eu bod wedi'u tanbrisio yn y gorffennol, nid yn unig o ran y modd y mae cymdeithas yn meddwl am bobl yn y sector gofal ond hefyd o ran y tâl y maen nhw wedi'i gael am wneud y swyddi hynny. Felly, mae'n debyg mai fy mhle i chi heddiw, wrth symud ymlaen, yw edrych ar ôl yr unigolion hynny o ran eu hyfforddiant, eu statws, a gadewch i ni beidio â - . Pan fyddwn ni'n sôn am adeiladu'n ôl yn well, beth am i ni o leiaf ddeall bod y bobl hynny sydd angen i ni adeiladu'n ôl yn well ar eu cyfer nhw yn eu cyflogaeth yn cael y gydnabyddiaeth honno ym mhob agwedd. Ac, wrth gwrs, y maes arall a fyddai wedi cael sylw nawr, ond nad yw, oherwydd ein bod ni yn y cyfnod penodol hwn, yw'r gwasanaethau bws yng Nghymru. Byddai Bil wedi bod yn mynd ar ei hynt drwy Senedd Cymru ar hyn o bryd, a byddai llawer mwy o bobl wedi bod yn mynd ar daith, yn enwedig drwy fy ardal i yng Nghymru ar fysus. Yn anffodus, nid yw hynny'n wir ar hyn o bryd, ac, er fy mod yn wirioneddol bryderus nad ydym yn gadael pobl ar ôl, rwyf yr un mor bryderus nad ydym yn llythrennol yn eu gadael ar ôl, yn gaeth yng Nghymru wledig heb unrhyw fath o drafnidiaeth, oherwydd bod cynifer o bobl - yn enwedig pobl heb arian a phobl ifanc, pobl anabl, trigolion oedrannus a phobl sydd â thocyn bws am ddim - yn dibynnu ar y math hwnnw o drafnidiaeth.
