English: Thank you, leader of the house. National and local press and television will frequently hear about how both the UK and the Welsh Governments are encouraging energy providers to install domestic smart meters in order to combat fuel poverty. Now, I've been contacted by people in rural areas of my own constituency who have reported that installation of smart meters is impossible because of the lack of mobile phone signal, which is required for smart meters to work. Can you outline what discussions you've had with the energy sector on this issue and have you given any thought into designing this and these issues into the priorities for the Welsh Government's mobile action plan?
Welsh: Diolch, arweinydd y tŷ. Mae'r wasg genedlaethol a lleol a'r teledu yn clywed yn aml sut y mae Llywodraeth y DU a Llywodraeth Cymru yn annog darparwyr ynni i osod mesuryddion deallus mewn cartrefi er mwyn mynd i'r afael â thlodi tanwydd. Nawr, mae pobl o ardaloedd gwledig yn fy etholaeth wedi cysylltu â mi i ddweud ei bod yn amhosibl gosod mesuryddion deallus oherwydd diffyg signal ffonau symudol, sy'n angenrheidiol er mwyn i fesuryddion deallus weithio. A allwch amlinellu pa drafodaethau rydych wedi'u cael gyda'r sector ynni ynglŷn â'r mater hwn, ac a ydych wedi rhoi unrhyw ystyriaeth i gynnwys hyn a'r materion hyn yn y blaenoriaethau ar gyfer cynllun gweithredu ffonau symudol Llywodraeth Cymru?
English: I haven't had any conversation with the energy companies about smart meters. We have had some conversation with the industry round-table about getting energy to the masts themselves. But I agree entirely with Russell George's analysis that the lack of mobile coverage is a real issue for a whole range of services, including smart meters. Any number of services rely, increasingly these days, on data particularly, and he will know that we've been lobbying both the UK Government and Ofcom for a range of measures to be put in place to ensure that we can get decent amounts of mobile coverage from more than one operator across Wales, for exactly the reason that he outlines.
Welsh: Nid wyf wedi cael unrhyw drafodaethau gyda'r cwmnïau ynni ynglŷn â mesuryddion deallus. Rydym wedi cael rhai trafodaethau bord gron gyda'r diwydiant ynglŷn â chyflenwi ynni i'r mastiau eu hunain. Ond cytunaf yn llwyr â dadansoddiad Russell George fod diffyg signal ffonau symudol yn broblem go iawn i ystod eang o wasanaethau, gan gynnwys mesuryddion deallus. Mae llawer iawn o wasanaethau yn dibynnu, fwyfwy y dyddiau hyn, ar ddata yn arbennig, ac fe fydd yn ymwybodol ein bod wedi bod yn lobïo Llywodraeth y DU ac Ofcom i roi amrywiaeth o fesurau ar waith er mwyn gwneud yn siŵr y gallwn sicrhau signal ffonau symudol boddhaol gan fwy nag un gweithredwr ledled Cymru, am yr union resymau a amlinellwyd ganddo.
English: Yes. Our strategic equality plan details our equality objectives that are ensuring the way we govern has an effective impact on making our society fairer and more inclusive. The rapid review of gender equality, which is under way, will identify actions to drive forward equality and fairness in Wales.
Welsh: Gwnaf. Mae ein cynllun cydraddoldeb strategol yn cynnwys manylion ynglŷn â'n hamcanion cydraddoldeb sy'n sicrhau bod y ffordd rydym yn llywodraethu yn cael effaith o ran sicrhau bod ein cymdeithas yn decach ac yn fwy cynhwysol. Bydd yr adolygiad cyflym o gydraddoldeb rhywiol, sydd ar waith, yn nodi camau i wella cydraddoldeb a thegwch yng Nghymru.
English: Can I thank the Cabinet Secretary for that answer? The greatest inequality, if not the greatest, is the difference in life expectancy between the more disadvantaged areas and the more prosperous areas of Wales, often within the same local authority area, and, in fact, within the same constituency, as the Cabinet Secretary is aware. Since the ending of Communities First and the work it did on reducing smoking rates, reducing obesity and increasing exercise, what is being done to improve life expectancy in the most disadvantaged communities?
Welsh: A gaf fi ddiolch i Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet am ei hateb? Yr anghydraddoldeb mwyaf, os nad y mwyaf, yw'r gwahaniaeth mewn disgwyliad oes rhwng ardaloedd mwyaf difreintiedig ac ardaloedd mwy llewyrchus Cymru, yn aml o fewn yr un ardal awdurdod lleol, ac yn wir, o fewn yr un etholaeth, fel y gŵyr Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet. Ers diwedd Cymunedau yn Gyntaf a'r gwaith a wnaeth ar leihau cyfraddau ysmygu, lleihau gordewdra a chynyddu ymarfer corff, beth sy'n cael ei wneud i wella disgwyliad oes yn y cymunedau mwyaf difreintiedig?
English: Improving health for everyone, especially those in poverty, is a central ambition of 'Prosperity for All' and we're prioritising actions to both tackle the root causes of that poverty and to target support for people within the most deprived areas of Wales. The Member has correctly identified that there are a range of issues that affect life expectancy. What we need to do is get upstream actions, as they call it - so, at-source actions - to redistribute social determinants, and also to help people better cope with the circumstances that they find themselves in. Mike Hedges will know that, in Swansea, we have communities that can actually see each other, because of the ways the hills work, where the life expectancy is quite severely different. That has a range of issues around poverty, but also around air quality and a number of other issues. The Government has a whole plan in place to make sure that those social determinants are not determining people's quality of life as we go forward.
Welsh: Mae gwella iechyd i bawb, yn enwedig pobl sy'n byw mewn tlodi, yn un o uchelgeisiau canolog 'Ffyniant i Bawb' ac rydym yn blaenoriaethu camau i fynd i'r afael â'r achosion sydd wrth wraidd y tlodi hwnnw ac i dargedu cymorth ar gyfer pobl yn yr ardaloedd mwyaf difreintiedig yng Nghymru. Mae'r Aelod yn llygad ei le yn nodi bod amrywiaeth o faterion yn effeithio ar ddisgwyliad oes. Yr hyn y mae angen inni ei wneud yw sicrhau camau gweithredu ymhellach i fyny'r gadwyn, fel y'u gelwir - felly, camau gweithredu yn y tarddiad - i ailddosbarthu penderfynyddion cymdeithasol, ac i gynorthwyo pobl i ymdopi â'u hamgylchiadau yn well. Gŵyr Mike Hedges fod gennym gymunedau yn Abertawe sy'n gallu gweld ei gilydd, oherwydd siâp y bryniau, lle mae gwahaniaeth sylweddol rhyngddynt o ran disgwyliad oes. Mae hynny'n cynnwys amrywiaeth o faterion sy'n ymwneud â thlodi, ond hefyd ag ansawdd aer a nifer o faterion eraill. Mae gan y Llywodraeth gynllun cyflawn ar waith i sicrhau nad yw'r penderfynyddion cymdeithasol hynny'n pennu ansawdd bywyd pobl wrth inni symud ymlaen.
English: Talking of Swansea, you may recall a few years ago that the council failed to apply for a second tranche of Government funding for discretionary housing payments, and that was not long after they'd had to return almost £1 million to Government as they could not find a way of using it to reduce poverty. This is a council which has a history of spending money on things that perhaps we don't value, but why does its current Labour leadership find it so difficult to spend funding that's dedicated to tackling the inequalities of poverty?
Welsh: A sôn am Abertawe, efallai eich bod yn cofio, ychydig flynyddoedd yn ôl, i'r Cyngor fethu gwneud cais am ail gyfran o arian y Llywodraeth ar gyfer taliadau tai yn ôl disgresiwn, a digwyddodd hynny yn fuan ar ôl iddynt orfod ad-dalu bron i £1 filiwn i'r Llywodraeth gan nad oeddent wedi gallu dod o hyd i ffordd o'i ddefnyddio i leihau tlodi. Dyma gyngor sydd â hanes o wario arian ar bethau nad ydym, o bosibl, yn eu gwerthfawrogi, ond pam fod ei arweinyddiaeth Lafur bresennol yn ei chael hi mor anodd gwario'r arian a bennwyd ar gyfer mynd i'r afael ag anghydraddoldebau tlodi?
English: We've worked very hard with the council, actually, in a number of areas, to make sure that they have a good plan in place to address social inequality across the city. One of the big issues for everyone is the employability of some of the areas of Swansea. We do still have, across Wales, small pockets of high unemployment and some parts of my own constituency, Llywydd, are affected by that, and obviously Suzy Davies's region. Our employability plan is specifically designed to assist people who find themselves in those circumstances to get not just work but well-paid work to lift them out of the poverty that we know affects many of their lives. We're working very hard with Swansea and the city deal in general to make sure that those moneys are well spent.
Welsh: Rydym wedi gweithio'n galed iawn gyda'r cyngor, mewn gwirionedd, mewn nifer o feysydd, i sicrhau bod ganddynt gynllun da ar waith i fynd i'r afael ag anghydraddoldeb cymdeithasol ledled y ddinas. Un o'r materion pwysig i bawb yw cyflogadwyedd rhai o ardaloedd Abertawe. Mae gennym bocedi bychain o ddiweithdra uchel ledled Cymru o hyd, ac mae rhai rhannau o fy etholaeth fy hun, Lywydd, wedi'u heffeithio gan hynny, a rhanbarth Suzy Davies wrth gwrs. Mae ein cynllun cyflogadwyedd wedi'i gynllunio'n benodol i gynorthwyo pobl yn yr amgylchiadau hynny nid yn unig i gael gwaith ond i gael gwaith sy'n talu'n dda er mwyn eu codi allan o'r tlodi y gwyddom ei fod yn effeithio ar fywydau llawer ohonynt. Rydym yn gweithio'n galed iawn gydag Abertawe a'r fargen ddinesig yn gyffredinol i sicrhau bod yr arian hwnnw yn cael ei wario'n dda.
English: Questions now from the party spokespeople. UKIP spokesperson, David Rowlands.
Welsh: Cwestiynau nawr gan lefarwyr y plediadau. Llefarydd UKIP, David Rowlands.
English: Diolch, Llywydd. Leader of the house, last Tuesday, I attended the cross-party group on human trafficking. It was gratifying to note the progress being made in combating this evil trade. Whilst we may differ on the causes of these manifestations, we all find this scourge on our society, and its attendant human misery, an abhorrent one. Leader of the house, can you assure us that your Government will remain committed to ending slavery in all its forms in Wales?
Welsh: Diolch, Lywydd. Arweinydd y tŷ, ddydd Mawrth diwethaf, mynychais y grŵp trawsbleidiol ar fasnachu pobl. Roedd yn braf nodi'r cynnydd sy'n cael ei wneud wrth frwydro yn erbyn y fasnach ddieflig hon. Er ein bod yn anghytuno ynglŷn ag achosion y pethau hyn, mae pob un ohonom o'r farn fod y pla hwn ar ein cymdeithas, a'r trallod y mae'n ei achosi i bobl, yn wrthun. Arweinydd y tŷ, a allwch roi sicrwydd inni y bydd eich Llywodraeth yn parhau'n ymrwymedig i roi diwedd ar gaethwasiaeth o bob math yng Nghymru?
English: Yes, absolutely. We are the first and only country in the UK to appoint an anti-slavery co-ordinator, as I know David Rowlands is well aware. We've established the Wales anti-slavery leadership group to provide the strategic leadership and guidance on how we tackle slavery in Wales, and to provide the best possible support for survivors. We're in the process of the sharing the learning from Wales with other partners, including UK Government departments and with the UK independent anti-slavery commissioner, and we're starting to gain an international recognition for our work on this agenda.
Welsh: Gallaf, yn sicr. Ni yw'r wlad gyntaf a'r unig wlad yn y DU i benodi cydgysylltydd atal caethwasiaeth, fel y gŵyr David Rowlands yn iawn. Rydym wedi sefydlu grŵp arwain atal caethwasiaeth Cymru i ddarparu arweinyddiaeth strategol ac arweiniad ar sut i fynd i'r afael â chaethwasiaeth yng Nghymru, ac i ddarparu'r cymorth gorau posibl i oroeswyr. Rydym wrthi'n rhannu'r dysgu o Gymru gyda phartneriaid eraill, gan gynnwys adrannau Llywodraeth y DU a chyda chomisiynydd atal caethwasiaeth annibynnol y DU, ac rydym yn dechrau ennill cydnabyddiaeth ryngwladol am ein gwaith ar yr agenda hon.
English: I thank the leader of the house for that comprehensive answer. For the year 2016-17, over 10,000 adult survivors and nearly 4,000 children and young people were provided with support by domestic abuse services in Wales, which include refuge and community-based advocacy. Figures show the national domestic abuse helpline received over 28,000 calls. It is therefore extremely disturbing to hear that at least 500 women in Wales could not be accommodated by refuges because there was no space available. As these refuges afford one of the most important elements in helping domestic abuse victims, why is it that from 2016 to date there have been cuts to refuge services that mean no new refuges are being provided and existing ones may even have to close? Does the leader of the house believe this is an acceptable situation?
Welsh: Diolch i arweinydd y tŷ am ei hateb cynhwysfawr. Ar gyfer y flwyddyn 2016-17, darparwyd cymorth i dros 10,000 o oroeswyr sy'n oedolion a bron i 4,000 o blant a phobl ifanc gan y gwasanaethau cam-drin domestig yng Nghymru, sy'n cynnwys lloches ac eiriolaeth gymunedol. Dengys ffigurau fod y llinell gymorth cam-drin domestig genedlaethol wedi derbyn dros 28,000 o alwadau. Felly, mae'n hynod o frawychus clywed nad oedd modd rhoi lloches i o leiaf 500 o fenywod yng Nghymru gan nad oedd lle ar gael. O gofio mai'r llochesi hyn yw un o'r elfennau pwysicaf wrth gefnogi dioddefwyr cam-drin domestig, pam y gwnaed toriadau rhwng 2016 a heddiw i wasanaethau lloches sy'n golygu nad oes unrhyw lochesi newydd yn cael eu darparu, ac efallai y bydd yn rhaid i rai sy'n bodoli eisoes gau, hyd yn oed? A yw Arweinydd y tŷ yn credu bod hon yn sefyllfa dderbyniol?
English: No. We're working very hard indeed to make sure that services for people fleeing domestic violence or any kind of sexual violence across Wales are fit for purpose. We have, as David Rowlands knows, the rapid review of gender equality currently under way. I'm due to discuss that on Thursday morning of this week. One of the aims of that, and of the violence against women, domestic abuse and sexual violence Act in Wales, is to do a proper needs assessment across Wales so that we can properly respond to the need and to make sure our resources are well targeted.
Welsh: Nac ydw. Rydym yn gweithio'n galed iawn yn wir i sicrhau bod y gwasanaethau sydd ar gael i bobl sy'n dianc rhag trais domestig neu unrhyw fath o drais rhywiol ledled Cymru yn addas i'r diben. Fel y gŵyr David Rowlands, mae'r adolygiad cyflym o gydraddoldeb rhywiol ar y gweill ar hyn o bryd. Byddaf yn ei drafod fore dydd Iau yr wythnos hon. Un o amcanion yr adolygiad, a'r Ddeddf trais yn erbyn menywod, cam-drin domestig a thrais rhywiol yng Nghymru, yw cynnal asesiad priodol o anghenion ledled Cymru fel y gallwn ymateb yn briodol i'r angen a sicrhau bod ein hadnoddau wedi'u targedu'n dda.
English: I thank the leader of the house for that answer as well. In case you were having withdrawal symptoms, leader of the house, my last question concerns digital infrastructure. So, given that there are still a number of communities, such as Llangenny village in Powys, that are not able to benefit from the Superfast Cymru digital roll-out, is the leader of the house in a position to indicate how the new delivery plan will be designed to include those who are not connected in what we have to say was a very successful first roll-out phase?
Welsh: Diolch i arweinydd y tŷ am yr ateb hwnnw hefyd. Rhag ofn eich bod yn cael symptomau amddifadu, arweinydd y tŷ, mae fy nghwestiwn olaf yn ymwneud â seilwaith digidol. Felly, o gofio bod nifer o gymunedau o hyd, megis pentref Llangenau ym Mhowys, yn methu elwa ar y broses o gyflwyno Cyflymu Cymru, a yw arweinydd y tŷ mewn sefyllfa i nodi sut y bydd y cynllun cyflawni newydd yn cael ei lunio i gynnwys y rheini na chawsant eu cysylltu yn yr hyn y mae'n rhaid inni ddweud ei fod yn gam cyntaf llwyddiannus iawn o ran cyflwyno?
English: Yes. We're in the process at the moment of procuring the second phase of Superfast Cymru. There are a number of tranches to that. It is specifically designed to pick up those communities with the least good service, either of mobile data services or poor broadband download speeds. In addition to that, we have a particular pool for communities who wish to get together to get a solution for their whole community of whatever sort, and we're very happy to talk to any community that wants to come together to get a bespoke solution for them.
Welsh: Ydw. Ar hyn o bryd, rydym yn y broses o gaffael ail gam Cyflymu Cymru. Mae nifer o elfennau'n perthyn i hynny. Fe'i cynlluniwyd yn benodol i nodi'r cymunedau gyda'r gwasanaeth gwaethaf, naill ai o ran gwasanaethau data ffonau symudol neu gyflymderau lawrlwytho band eang gwael. Yn ogystal â hynny, mae gennym gronfa benodol ar gyfer cymunedau sy'n dymuno dod at ei gilydd i sicrhau ateb o ba fath bynnag ar gyfer eu cymuned gyfan, ac rydym yn fwy na pharod i siarad ag unrhyw gymuned sy'n awyddus i ddod ynghyd er mwyn sicrhau ateb pwrpasol ar eu cyfer hwy.
English: Thank you. Yesterday, we had a statement from you on Wales as a nation of sanctuary for refugees and asylum seekers, and I responded to the debate expressing Plaid Cymru's support for that ambition. I also highlighted one of the major challenges, namely the prejudice that exists towards refugees and asylum seekers, and the misinformation that is distributed. I called for a constructive debate in order to create cultural change. If you look at my Twitter account, you will see that there are responses that are highly prejudicial that appeared as a result of my speech yesterday, and, unfortunately, this does prove why we need to challenge that prejudice at all possible opportunities. My party will continue to make the case for the creation of a nation of sanctuary. Will you commit today to give specific attention to the action that needs to happen in order to deal with this clear prejudice that exists?
Welsh: Diolch. Ddoe, fe gawsom ni ddatganiad gennych chi ar Gymru fel cenedl noddfa i ffoaduriaid a cheiswyr lloches, ac fe wnes i ymateb i'r ddadl gan ddatgan cefnogaeth Plaid Cymru i'r nod. Fe wnes i hefyd dynnu sylw at un o'r heriau mawr, sef y rhagfarn sydd yn bodoli tuag at ffoaduriaid a cheiswyr lloches a'r wybodaeth ffug sydd yn cael ei ledaenu. Mi wnes i alw am drafodaeth adeiladol er mwyn creu newid diwylliannol. Os ydych chi'n edrych ar fy nghyfrif trydar i, fe welwch chi fod ymatebion llawn rhagfarn wedi ymddangos yn sgil fy araith i ddoe, ac, yn anffodus, mae hyn yn profi pam fod angen herio'r rhagfarn ar bob cyfle posib. Fe fydd fy mhlaid i yn parhau i ddadlau dros greu cenedl noddfa. A wnewch chi ymrwymo heddiw i roi sylw penodol i'r gweithredu sydd angen digwydd er mwyn dileu'r rhagfarn amlwg yma sydd yn bodoli?
English: Yes, I share Siân Gwenllian's horror - an appalling reaction to it. I had a similar issue with my own Twitter feed, and I follow Siân Gwenllian on Twitter, so I'm very well aware of what she speaks. Part of the point of the plan is to do exactly that, to combat the prejudicial, prejudiced responses from people who really haven't understood at all what people from other countries bring to the culture and to the service of our country. And, as I said yesterday in the debate, and I very sincerely mean it, it's a two-way process. We assist people who are fleeing all kinds of issues in their home countries, and, in turn, they enrich our country with their art and culture and food and society and skills, and for that, we're very grateful.
Welsh: Ie, rhannaf arswyd Siân Gwenllian - ymateb ofnadwy iddo. Cefais broblem debyg gyda fy nghyfrif Twitter fy hun, ac rwy'n dilyn Siân Gwenllian ar Twitter, felly rwy'n ymwybodol iawn o'r hyn y mae hi'n sôn amdano. Rhan o bwrpas y cynllun yw gwneud yn union hynny, brwydro yn erbyn ymatebion niweidiol rhagfarnllyd gan bobl nad ydynt wedi deall o gwbl beth y mae pobl o wledydd eraill yn ei gyfrannu at ddiwylliant a gwasanaeth ein gwlad. Ac fel y dywedais yn y ddadl ddoe, ac rwy'n golygu hyn yn ddiffuant, mae'n broses ddwy ffordd. Rydym yn cynorthwyo pobl sy'n ffoi rhag pob math o broblemau yn eu gwledydd hwy, ac yn eu tro, maent yn cyfoethogi ein gwlad gyda'u celfyddyd a'u diwylliant a'u bwyd a'u cymdeithas a'u sgiliau, ac rydym yn ddiolchgar iawn am hynny.
English: One way of dealing with prejudice is by allowing refugees to play an active part in communities and the workplaces around them. And to do that, of course, they have to be able to get fluency in both languages of our nation, both Welsh and English. Families from Syria who have been welcomed to my area have had an opportunity to make swift progress in acquiring language skills, and recently I had a conversation in Welsh with two young refugees, as well as hearing them speak English fluently, too. But doing away with the minority ethnic achievement grant, which was specific funding for responding to the needs of pupils from minority groups, is going to slow that process of teaching languages to refugees, and will make it very difficult for teachers to give specific attention to this area. Will you commit to try and convince the Cabinet Secretary for Education to reintroduce this grant? I raised this point yesterday and I didn't get a response on it.
Welsh: Un ffordd o ddileu rhagfarn ydy drwy ganiatáu i ffoaduriaid fod yn rhan weithredol o'r cymunedau a'r byd gwaith o'u cwmpas nhw. Ac i wneud hynny, wrth gwrs, mae'n rhaid iddyn nhw fedru magu sgiliau rhugl yn nwy iaith ein gwlad ni - Cymraeg a Saesneg. Mae teuluoedd o Syria sydd wedi cael eu croesawu i fy ardal i wedi cael cyfle i symud ymlaen yn gyflym i gaffael sgiliau iaith, ac yn ddiweddar, fe ges i sgwrs yn Gymraeg efo dwy ffoadur ifanc, yn ogystal â'u clywed nhw'n siarad Saesneg yn rhugl hefyd. Ond mae dileu y grant MEAG, sef arian penodol ar gyfer ymateb i anghenion disgyblion o grwpiau lleiafrifol, yn mynd i arafu'r broses o ddysgu ieithoedd i ffoaduriaid, a'i gwneud hi'n anodd iawn i athrawon roi sylw penodol i hyn. A wnewch chi ymrwymo i geisio darbwyllo'r Ysgrifennydd Cabinet dros Addysg i ailgyflwyno'r grant yma? Mi wnes i godi'r pwynt yma ddoe a ches i ddim ateb.
