English: That is very welcome news indeed, First Minister. The First Minister will have noted that, only just over a week ago, I and several Assembly colleagues sponsored an event in the Senedd that brought together activists and campaigners, local authorities and other organisations, and members of the public, to focus minds and ideas on the climate emergency, but also the biodiversity emergency we face. And, this week again, today, in fact, we see protests right across the world, urging Governments to take the necessary urgent actions to respond to the clear evidence that we as individuals, as communities, as nations and governments, and internationally, need to do more, much more, to address the climate and biodiversity emergencies. So, could our Welsh Government continue to work with others to establish citizens assemblies as a way to help us, us politicians, find a way forward with the urgency we truly need, and to work on this with those climate change activists and campaigners, as well as, crucially, the wider public? And, First Minister, in trying to work with others, including the campaigners, and many young people, including those who've been inspired by Greta Thunberg, what does he make of those who'd refer to such campaigners as 'nose-ringed, unco-operative, climate change crusties in their hemp-smelling bivouacs'?
Welsh: Mae hynny'n newyddion i'w groesawu'n wir, Prif Weinidog. Bydd y Prif Weinidog wedi sylwi, dim ond ychydig dros wythnos yn ôl, fy mod i a nifer o gyd-Aelodau Cynulliad wedi noddi digwyddiad yn y Senedd a ddaeth â gweithredwyr ac ymgyrchwyr, awdurdodau lleol a sefydliadau eraill, ac aelodau o'r cyhoedd at ei gilydd, i ganolbwyntio meddyliau a syniadau am yr argyfwng hinsawdd, ond hefyd yr argyfwng bioamrywiaeth sy'n ein hwynebu. A'r wythnos hon eto, heddiw, a dweud y gwir, rydym ni'n gweld protestiadau ar draws y byd, yn annog Llywodraethau i gymryd y camau brys angenrheidiol i ymateb i'r dystiolaeth eglur bod angen i ni fel unigolion, fel cymunedau, fel gwledydd a llywodraethau, ac yn rhyngwladol, wneud mwy, llawer mwy, i fynd i'r afael â'r argyfyngau hinsawdd a bioamrywiaeth. Felly, a fydd ein Llywodraeth Cymru yn gallu parhau i weithio gydag eraill i sefydlu cynulliadau dinasyddion fel ffordd o'n helpu ni, ni wleidyddion, i ddod o hyd i ffordd ymlaen gyda'r brys sydd wirioneddol ei angen arnom, ac i weithio ar hyn gyda'r gweithredwyr ac ymgyrchwyr newid hinsawdd hynny, yn ogystal, yn hollbwysig, â'r cyhoedd yn ehangach? A, Prif Weinidog, wrth geisio gweithio gydag eraill, gan gynnwys yr ymgyrchwyr, a llawer o bobl ifanc, gan gynnwys y rhai sydd wedi cael eu hysbrydoli gan Greta Thunberg, beth yw ei farn ef ar y rhai a fyddai'n cyfeirio at ymgyrchwyr o'r fath fel croengwn newid hinsawdd anghydweithredol sy'n gwisgo modrwyon trwyn, yn eu gwersylloedd sy'n drewi o gywarch?
English: Of course, the simple answer that you could have given to the latter part of the Member's question was that we need a general election, First Minister, and your party's stopping that happening. But, on the principal question of people's assemblies, surely what we need to be looking at is how we can take along with us community councils and county councils here in Wales, many of whom have passed motions supporting the declaration of a climate change emergency, but really do feel that, sometimes, they are not part of the process, especially at community and town council level. What work has the Welsh Government undertaken with colleagues in town and community councils, so that, where these resolutions are passed, they are fed into the network of advice and support that is given to communities over the change that they can make in their communities to play their part in reducing our carbon footprint?
Welsh: Wrth gwrs, yr ateb syml y gallech chi fod wedi ei roi i ran olaf cwestiwn yr Aelod oedd bod angen etholiad cyffredinol arnom ni, Prif Weinidog, ac mae eich plaid chi yn atal hynny rhag digwydd. Ond, o ran y prif gwestiwn o gynulliadau pobl, siawns mai'r hyn y mae angen i ni fod yn edrych arno yw sut y gallwn ni gyd-dynnu â chynghorau cymuned a chynghorau sir yma yng Nghymru, y mae llawer ohonynt wedi pasio cynigion yn cefnogi datgan argyfwng newid hinsawdd, ond sydd wir yn teimlo, weithiau, nad ydyn nhw yn rhan o'r broses, yn enwedig ar lefel cynghorau cymuned a thref. Pa waith y mae Llywodraeth Cymru wedi ei wneud gyda chydweithwyr mewn cynghorau tref a chymuned, fel bod y penderfyniadau hyn, pan eu bod yn cael eu pasio, yn cael eu cyfrannu at y rhwydwaith o gyngor a chymorth a roddir i gymunedau ynghylch y newid y gallan nhw ei wneud yn eu cymunedau i chwarae eu rhan i leihau ein hôl troed carbon?
English: Well, Llywydd, let me welcome the fact that so many principal councils, and town and community councils, have passed resolutions here in Wales, declaring their own intention to be part of the solution to the climate change emergency that we face. And I want to put on record my appreciation of the work that the best of our town and community councils do, right across Wales. Where we have town and community councils that have ambition, where they want to make the extra contribution that we know they can, we've got really successful examples in parts of Wales where those contributions make a difference. That's why we set up the group, chaired by Rhodri Glyn Thomas and Gwenda Thomas, earlier in this Assembly term, to make sure that the work that is done by the best of our town and community councils becomes more typical of the sector as a whole. As a result, we have worked closely with them. I myself have addressed their general meeting twice during this Assembly term, and my colleague Julie James has met with the sector again recently. We want to capture the commitment that town and community councils and their members make in Wales, because they have a genuine contribution that they can make to the decarbonisation and climate change agendas. We look forward to being able to work with them positively in the future.
Welsh: Wel, Llywydd, gadewch i mi groesawu'r ffaith bod cynifer o brif gynghorau, a chynghorau tref a chymuned, wedi pasio penderfyniadau yma yng Nghymru, yn datgan eu bwriad eu hunain i fod yn rhan o'r ateb i'r argyfwng newid yn yr hinsawdd sy'n ein hwynebu. A hoffwn gofnodi fy ngwerthfawrogiad o'r gwaith y mae'r goreuon o blith ein cynghorau tref a chymuned yn ei wneud, ar draws Cymru gyfan. Lle mae gennym ni gynghorau tref a chymuned sydd ag uchelgais, lle maen nhw eisiau gwneud y cyfraniad ychwanegol yr ydym ni'n gwybod y gallan nhw ei wneud, mae gennym ni enghreifftiau llwyddiannus iawn mewn rhannau o Gymru lle mae'r cyfraniadau hynny yn gwneud gwahaniaeth. Dyna pam y sefydlwyd y grŵp gennym, dan gadeiryddiaeth Rhodri Glyn Thomas a Gwenda Thomas, yn gynharach yn ystod y tymor Cynulliad hwn, i wneud yn siŵr bod y gwaith sy'n cael ei wneud gan y goreuon o blith ein cynghorau tref a chymuned yn dod yn fwy nodweddiadol o'r sector yn gyffredinol. O ganlyniad, rydym ni wedi cydweithio'n agos â nhw. Rwyf i fy hun wedi annerch eu cyfarfod cyffredinol ddwywaith yn ystod y tymor Cynulliad hwn, ac mae fy nghyd-Weinidog, Julie James, wedi cyfarfod â'r sector eto yn ddiweddar. Rydym ni eisiau cefnogi'r ymrwymiad y mae cynghorau tref a chymuned a'u haelodau yn ei wneud yng Nghymru, oherwydd mae ganddyn nhw gyfraniad gwirioneddol y gallan nhw ei wneud at yr agendâu datgarboneiddio a newid yn yr hinsawdd. Edrychwn ymlaen at allu gweithio gyda nhw mewn modd cadarnhaol yn y dyfodol.
English: There's no doubt, of course, that Extinction Rebellion and the school strikers have transformed the narrative around the climate emergency that we're currently facing. And I agree with you entirely that we should congratulate and support those people for their efforts. But, of course, Plaid Cymru did table a motion here a fortnight ago doing exactly that in the context of the school strikers, and, unfortunately, your party voted against our motion, and amended it to such an extent that it became a meaningless statement. Do you regret doing that now?
Welsh: Does dim amheuaeth, wrth gwrs, fod Extinction Rebellion a'r streicwyr ysgol wedi trawsnewid y naratif o gwmpas yr argyfwng hinsawdd rŷn ni'n ei wynebu ar hyn o bryd. A dwi'n cytuno'n llwyr â chi fod angen llongyfarch a chefnogi'r rheini am eu hymdrechion. Wrth gwrs, mi wnaeth Plaid Cymru osod cynnig fan hyn bythefnos yn ôl yn gwneud hynny yng nghyd-destun y streicwyr ysgol, ac, yn anffodus, mi wnaeth eich plaid chi bleidleisio'n erbyn ein cynnig ni, a'i wella fe i'r graddau fel ei fod e'n rhyw ddatganiad digon tila. Ydych chi'n difaru gwneud hynny erbyn hyn?
English: Well, what we did on the Assembly floor was acknowledge the fact that there is more than one way in which people can work in this field and that there is more than one contribution available to supporters in dealing with the crisis we face. We do acknowledge the fact that young people have blazed a trail on this. But there are many other contributions that people can make, and that is why we as a party tabled the amendments, and those amendments were supported by the National Assembly.
Welsh: Wel, beth roeddem ni'n ei wneud ar lawr y Cynulliad oedd cydnabod y ffaith bod mwy nag un ffordd y mae pobl yn gallu gweithio yn y maes a bod mwy nag un cyfraniad ar gael i'n helpu ni i ddelio â'r argyfwng sy'n ein hwynebu ni. Rŷm ni yn cydnabod y ffaith mai pobl ifanc sydd wedi arwain y llwybr yma - wrth gwrs rŷm ni. Ond mae lot o gyfraniadau eraill y mae pobl yn gallu eu gwneud, a dyna pam roeddem ni'n rhoi'r gwelliannau roeddem ni fel plaid wedi eu rhoi i lawr, a'r gwelliannau yna oedd wedi cael eu cefnogi gan y Cynulliad Cenedlaethol.
English: I thank the Member for the question. Transport for Wales will improve ticketing services through a combination of well-established and new methods. Two hundred and thirty-six new rail ticket machines will begin to be installed at stations early next year. At the same time, a new passenger app and web-based ticket sales will also be made available to passengers.
Welsh: Diolchaf i'r Aelod am y cwestiwn. Bydd Trafnidiaeth Cymru yn gwella gwasanaethau tocynnau trwy gyfuniad o ddulliau sefydledig a newydd. Bydd dau gant tri deg a chwech o beiriannau tocynnau rheilffordd newydd yn dechrau cael eu gosod mewn gorsafoedd yn gynnar y flwyddyn nesaf. Ar yr un pryd, bydd ap newydd i deithwyr a thocynnau ar y we yn cael eu rhoi ar gael i deithwyr hefyd.
English: Thank you for that answer. First Minister, it's been brought to my attention that a customer who went to buy a ticket from the Transport for Wales app was offered the price of £30.05 for a cross-border train journey. That customer then checked National Rail, to find the same journey for £22.10. That difference could feed his kids for a couple of days. What is the Welsh Government going to do to ensure that Welsh train passengers are offered the fairest prices when they're travelling?
Welsh: Diolch am yr ateb yna. Prif Weinidog, tynnwyd fy sylw at y ffaith bod cwsmer a aeth i brynu tocyn o ap Trafnidiaeth Cymru wedi cael cynnig y pris o £30.05 ar gyfer taith drên drawsffiniol. Yna, gwiriodd y cwsmer hwnnw National Rail, gan ddod o hyd i'r un daith am £22.10. Gallai'r gwahaniaeth hwnnw fwydo ei blant am ddiwrnod neu ddau. Beth mae Llywodraeth Cymru yn mynd i'w wneud i sicrhau bod teithwyr trên yng Nghymru yn cael cynnig y prisiau tecaf pan eu bod yn teithio?
English: Well, the Member points to a general issue, which is that train fares are confusing, and people do sometimes struggle to find the best deal that is available. We support those measures that have been taken to simplify fare structures. It's why here in Wales we are abolishing fares for under-11-year-olds, and we'll have half-price fares for under-16-year-olds on the network in Wales. It's why we're reducing fares in north Wales and on the Heads of the Valleys lines, and why we've introduced standard fares for people over 50 making journeys of more than 50 miles. But I'm very happy to look at the specific example that the Member raises, to see if there are any general lessons that can be drawn from it. We need transparent ticketing and transparent pricing so that passengers can easily navigate their way to the best deal for them.
Welsh: Wel, mae'r Aelod yn cyfeirio at fater cyffredinol, sef bod tocynnau trên yn ddryslyd, ac mae pobl weithiau'n ei chael hi'n anodd dod o hyd i'r fargen orau sydd ar gael. Rydym ni'n cefnogi'r mesurau hynny a gymerwyd i symleiddio strwythurau prisiau. Dyna pam yr ydym ni yma yng Nghymru yn diddymu tocynnau ar gyfer pobl ifanc dan 11 oed, ac y bydd gennym ni docynnau hanner pris i bobl ifanc dan 16 oed ar y rhwydwaith yng Nghymru. Dyna pam yr ydym ni'n gostwng prisiau tocynnau yn y gogledd ac ar reilffyrdd Blaenau'r Cymoedd, a pham yr ydym ni wedi cyflwyno prisiau safonol i bobl dros 50 oed sy'n mynd ar deithiau hwy na 50 milltir. Ond rwy'n hapus iawn i ymchwilio i'r enghraifft benodol y mae'r Aelod yn ei chodi, i weld a oes unrhyw wersi cyffredinol y gellir eu dysgu o hynny. Mae angen tocynnau tryloyw a phrisiau tryloyw arnom ni, fel y gall teithwyr ddod o hyd i'r fargen orau iddyn nhw yn rhwydd.
English: Last week, First Minister, I was written to by a constituent, in a handwritten letter, who outlined her experience of travelling by rail. This particular person is a disabled person, has mobility issues, carries a blue badge. I got the impression that this person is an elderly person, and she certainly doesn't feel comfortable, apart from the mobility issues, using a ticket machine on a station, because previously she had made mistakes and found it difficult to use. She also outlined to me in her letter that she doesn't own a phone - a smartphone - let alone know how to use one. So, she explained her difficulties to the conductor when he came around to collect the fare and check the tickets on her, and she said he came short of accusing her of fare dodging. So, my issue is that, with this particular lady, she was issued with a penalty fare, and I suppose the question here, First Minister, is what support does Transport for Wales offer conductors in terms of how they respond to and how they support people who have disabilities and mobility issues. And how does Transport for Wales's revenue protection policy support the kind of issue that I've just outlined to you?
Welsh: Yr wythnos diwethaf, Prif Weinidog, ysgrifennodd etholwr lythyr a ysgrifennwyd â llaw ataf yn amlinellu ei phrofiad o deithio ar y rheilffyrdd. Mae'r unigolyn penodol hwn yn berson anabl, sydd â phroblemau symudedd, ac sydd â bathodyn glas. Cefais yr argraff fod y person hwn yn berson oedrannus, ac yn sicr nid yw'n teimlo'n gyfforddus, ar wahân i'r problemau symudedd, yn defnyddio peiriant tocynnau mewn gorsaf, gan ei bod wedi gwneud camgymeriadau yn y gorffennol a'i gael yn anodd ei ddefnyddio. Amlinellodd i mi yn ei llythyr hefyd nad oes ganddi ffôn - ffôn clyfar - heb sôn am wybod sut i ddefnyddio un. Felly, esboniodd ei hanawsterau i'r casglwr tocynnau pan ddaeth o gwmpas i gasglu arian a gwirio'r tocynnau, a dywedodd nad aeth yr holl ffordd a'i chyhuddo o osgoi talu. Felly, fy mhroblem i, gyda'r wraig benodol hon, yw ei bod hi wedi gorfod talu pris cosb, ac mae'n debyg mai'r cwestiwn yn y fan yma, Prif Weinidog, yw pa gymorth y mae Trafnidiaeth Cymru yn ei gynnig i gasglwyr tocynnau o ran sut y maen nhw'n ymateb i bobl sydd ag anableddau a phroblemau symudedd. A sut mae polisi diogelu refeniw Trafnidiaeth Cymru yn cynorthwyo'r math o broblem yr wyf i newydd ei hamlinellu i chi?
English: Well, I thank the Member for that question. When the new rail ticket machines are installed early next year, they will be easier for passengers to use and, hopefully, the constituent who's written to you will feel confident in being able to use them. Conductors on trains have a difficult job to do. They do have a role to play in making sure that people pay the fare that they are expected to pay, but I would absolutely expect them to go about that job in a way that is sensitive to the circumstances of individuals who they come into contact with. It's why we are having training programmes for people who are working for Transport for Wales. It's why we have a group specifically set up to be able to reflect the experiences of people with disabilities who use our train services. And I'll make sure that, through the Minister responsible, we draw the attention of Transport for Wales to the correspondence that Russell George has received so that it can be part of the effort to learn from that and to ensure that such incidents don't get repeated.
Welsh: Wel, diolchaf i'r Aelod am y cwestiwn yna. Pan fydd y peiriannau tocynnau rheilffordd newydd yn cael eu gosod ddechrau'r flwyddyn nesaf, byddan nhw'n haws i deithwyr eu defnyddio, a gobeithio y bydd yr etholwr sydd wedi ysgrifennu atoch yn teimlo'n hyderus o ran gallu eu defnyddio. Mae gan gasglwyr tocynnau ar drenau waith anodd i'w wneud. Mae ganddyn nhw ran i'w chwarae o ran sicrhau bod pobl yn talu'r pris y disgwylir iddyn nhw ei dalu, ond byddwn yn sicr yn disgwyl iddyn nhw wneud y swydd honno mewn ffordd sy'n sensitif i amgylchiadau unigolion y maen nhw'n dod i gysylltiad â nhw. Dyna pam yr ydym ni'n cynnal rhaglenni hyfforddi i bobl sy'n gweithio i Trafnidiaeth Cymru. Dyna pam mae gennym ni grŵp a sefydlwyd yn benodol i allu adlewyrchu profiadau pobl ag anableddau sy'n defnyddio ein gwasanaethau trên. A byddaf yn gwneud yn siŵr, drwy'r Gweinidog sy'n gyfrifol, ein bod ni'n tynnu sylw Trafnidiaeth Cymru at yr ohebiaeth y mae Russell George wedi ei derbyn fel ei fod yn gallu bod yn rhan o'r ymdrech i ddysgu o hynny ac i sicrhau nad yw digwyddiadau o'r fath yn cael eu hailadrodd.
English: First Minister, earlier this year it was announced that Transport for Wales had signed a £1.9 million contract with multinational information equipment and service company, Fujitsu, to improve efficiency and, as you said, to upgrade ticket office machines and mobile handsets across the rail network. So, First Minister, as the first train operator in the UK to commit to such an upgrade, the rail company's new STAR ticket office machines offer that prospect of providing an efficient ticketing system for all customers at stations, encouraging rail transport and taking cars of the road. So, First Minister, with the extra news of this investment in more than 200 new ticket machines plus providing ticket sales through local convenience stores to improve access, what additional ways can the Welsh Government use to ensure that Wales creates a modern, clean and customer-friendly railway service fit for the twenty-first century for our future generations and the climate emergency agenda?
Welsh: Prif Weinidog, cyhoeddwyd yn gynharach eleni bod Trafnidiaeth Cymru wedi llofnodi contract gwerth £1.9 miliwn gyda chwmni offer a gwasanaethau gwybodaeth rhyngwladol, Fujitsu, i wella effeithlonrwydd ac, fel y dywedasoch, i uwchraddio peiriannau swyddfeydd tocynnau a setiau llaw symudol ar draws y rhwydwaith rheilffyrdd. Felly, Prif Weinidog, fel y gweithredwr trenau cyntaf yn y DU i ymrwymo i uwchraddio o'r fath, mae peiriannau swyddfa docynnau STAR newydd y cwmni rheilffordd yn cynnig y gobaith hwnnw o ddarparu system docynnau effeithlon i bob cwsmer mewn gorsafoedd, gan annog teithiau ar y rheilffyrdd a thynnu ceir oddi ar y ffordd. Felly, Prif Weinidog, gyda'r newyddion ychwanegol am y buddsoddiad hwn mewn mwy na 200 o beiriannau tocynnau newydd yn ogystal â gwerthu tocynnau mewn siopau cyfleustra lleol i wella mynediad, pa ffyrdd ychwanegol y gall Llywodraeth Cymru eu defnyddio i sicrhau bod Cymru'n creu gwasanaeth rheilffordd modern, glân ac ystyriol o gwsmeriaid sy'n addas ar gyfer yr unfed ganrif ar hugain i genedlaethau'r dyfodol ac i'r agenda argyfwng hinsawdd?
English: Well, I thank Rhianon Passmore for that, and behind her question lies the determination that we have and Transport for Wales has to make it as easy as possible for passengers in the very many different ways in which people now expect to be able to access tickets to be able to do so. Whether that is with the new and improved ticket machines, whether, as Rhianon Passmore said, by being able to purchase rail tickets at convenience stores or, as I suspect many people in this Chamber do, by being able to book tickets online, either through the new app or through web-based ways. We want to have as many ways as possible in which people are able to use our public transport services efficiently, easily and, therefore, as Rhianon said, to get cars off the road and people using the improved services, which we know will be there as Transport for Wales rolls out the franchise that was negotiated and which will lead to not simply better ways of buying tickets, but better services with which those tickets can be used.
Welsh: Wel, diolchaf i Rhianon Passmore am hynna, ac yn sail i'w chwestiwn y mae'r penderfyniad sydd gennym ni ac sydd gan Trafnidiaeth Cymru i'w gwneud mor hawdd â phosibl i deithwyr yn yr amryw o wahanol ffyrdd y mae pobl yn disgwyl gallu cael gafael ar docynnau erbyn hyn i allu gwneud hynny. Boed hynny gyda'r peiriannau tocynnau newydd a gwell, boed hynny, fel y dywedodd Rhianon Passmore, drwy allu prynu tocynnau rheilffordd mewn siopau cyfleustra neu, fel y tybiaf fod llawer o bobl yn y Siambr hon yn ei wneud, drwy allu archebu tocynnau ar-lein, naill ai drwy'r ap newydd neu drwy ffyrdd ar y we. Rydym ni eisiau cael cynifer o ffyrdd â phosibl lle gall pobl ddefnyddio ein gwasanaethau cludiant cyhoeddus yn effeithlon, yn hawdd ac, felly, fel y dywedodd Rhianon, mynd â cheir oddi ar y ffordd a chael pobl i ddefnyddio'r gwasanaethau gwell, y gwyddom y byddan nhw ar gael wrth i Trafnidiaeth Cymru gyflwyno'r fasnachfraint y cytunwyd arni ac a fydd yn arwain nid yn unig at ffyrdd gwell o brynu tocynnau, ond gwell gwasanaethau y gellir defnyddio'r tocynnau hynny arnynt.
English: Questions now from the party leaders and, first of all, the leader of the opposition, Paul Davies.
Welsh: Cwestiynau nawr gan arweinwyr y pleidiau, ac arweinydd yr wrthblaid yn gyntaf, Paul Davies.
English: Diolch, Llywydd. First Minister, can you tell us how many operations have been cancelled in the Welsh NHS in the last four years?
Welsh: Diolch, Llywydd. Prif Weinidog, a allwch chi ddweud wrthym ni faint o lawdriniaethau sydd wedi cael eu canslo yn GIG Cymru yn y pedair blynedd diwethaf?
English: Llywydd, it's not an examination in which the Members thinks that we can find a figure out of fresh air. What I will tell him is this - anticipating his next question - over half the operations that are cancelled in the Welsh NHS are cancelled by patients.
Welsh: Llywydd, nid yw'n archwiliad lle mae'r Aelodau yn credu y gallwn ni ganfod ffigur o 'nunlle. Yr hyn y gwnaf i ei ddweud wrtho yw hyn - gan ragweld ei gwestiwn nesaf - mae dros hanner y llawdriniaethau sy'n cael eu canslo yn GIG Cymru yn cael eu canslo gan gleifion.
