English: Can I thank the Member for his contribution, the points that he's raised, and the obvious fury that he's relayed from Swansea bay? I think it was Shakespeare who said something along the lines of 'could not wield the words to matter', and right now I think people are lost for words in expressing their anger, their frustration, their disappointment with the UK Government for taking a short-sighted view of marine energy. As I said earlier, what we wanted to see happen through this pathfinder project was the creation of an entirely new industry that Wales could lead the world in - an entirely new industry with enormous intellectual property owned by Welsh-based companies. That would have created jobs and opportunities not just in Swansea bay, but in the other locations where tidal lagoons were proposed. It could have led to a huge increase in opportunities in terms of the visitor economy as well. But all is not lost. We made an offer of £200 million to get this project over the line. What we intend to do is to host a marine energy summit in Swansea as soon as possible, with key stakeholders, with leaders in industry, to discuss how we can maintain the momentum that we've built in terms of marine energy in recent years, how we could potentially utilise the £200 million that we've made available for this particular project, how we can look at other proposals - hopefully by then we'll have some detail on the alternatives - how we could potentially use those alternative proposals to benefit Swansea bay and, indeed, the rest of Wales, and how collectively we can build on the Welsh Government investments to date to ensure that Wales maintains its position as a global leader in terms of marine energy. Because I fear, Llywydd, that if Welsh Government doesn't take this action for the people, with the people, and on behalf of the people of Swansea bay, then we'll end up with the French taking ownership of this project and taking a lead globally. It's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that could be granted to the French as a consequence of the UK Government making this decision. So, we will not abandon the sector. Far from it; we'll look at how we can build on those projects in south Pembrokeshire, in Milford Haven and also in Anglesey, and we'll look at how we can go on building the strength and the capabilities, the research capabilities, within the sector as well. I have to say, the Member touched on the crucial point of energy independence and energy security, which is so important to a vibrant economy. The United States of America managed to secure energy independence through its course of action on fracking. We in the Welsh Labour Government have been absolutely committed to securing as great a degree of energy independence from renewable sources. We remain absolutely committed to that cause and we will explore every avenue to deliver greater, greener growth in terms of energy production. We're determined to ensure that fairer opportunities for economic development are passed right across the regions. I'm acutely aware of the frustrations that exist in Swansea bay and elsewhere in Wales in terms of regional inequality. That is the whole point of the new economic action plan - to iron out inequalities across Wales and to make sure that those regions that currently feel marginalised feel emboldened and empowered to be as strong as they can possibly be, based on their existing capabilities. And, within the Swansea bay region, we know that one of the finest strengths that they possess right now concerns marine energy and we will support that region all the way.
Welsh: A gaf i ddiolch i'r Aelod am ei gyfraniad, y pwyntiau a gododd, a'r cynddaredd amlwg y mae wedi ei drosglwyddo o Fae Abertawe? Credaf mai Shakespeare a ddywedodd rhywbeth tebyg i "could not wield the words to matter" ac ar y foment hon rwyf i o'r farn nad oes gan bobl eiriau i fynegi eu dicter, eu rhwystredigaeth, eu siomiant gyda Llywodraeth y DU am fod mor gibddall o ran ynni morol. Fel y dywedais yn gynharach, yr hyn yr oeddem yn dymuno ei weld yn digwydd drwy'r prosiect braenaru hwn oedd creu diwydiant cwbl newydd y gallai Cymru arwain y byd ynddo - diwydiant cwbl newydd gydag eiddo deallusol anferth yn eiddo i gwmnïau o Gymru. Byddai hynny wedi creu swyddi a chyfleoedd nid yn unig ym Mae Abertawe, ond yn y lleoliadau eraill lle y cynigiwyd cael morlynnoedd llanw. Gallai fod wedi arwain at gynnydd enfawr yn y cyfleoedd o ran yr economi ymwelwyr hefyd. Ond nid dyma ei diwedd hi eto. Gwnaethom gynnig o £200 miliwn i wireddu'r prosiect hwn. Yr hyn y bwriadwn ei wneud yw cynnal uwchgynhadledd ynni morol yn Abertawe cyn gynted â phosibl, gyda rhanddeiliaid allweddol, ac arweinyddion diwydiannol, i drafod sut y gallwn gynnal y momentwm yr ydym wedi'i adeiladu o ran ynni morol yn y blynyddoedd diwethaf, sut y gallem ni o bosib ddefnyddio'r £200 miliwn yr ydym wedi'i roi ar gael ar gyfer y prosiect penodol hwn, sut y gallwn edrych ar gynigion eraill - gobeithio erbyn hynny y bydd gennym ni rai manylion am y dewisiadau eraill - sut y gallem ni o bosib ddefnyddio'r cynigion eraill hynny er budd Bae Abertawe ac, yn wir, gweddill Cymru, a sut y gallwn ni adeiladu gyda'n gilydd ar fuddsoddiadau Llywodraeth Cymru hyd yn hyn i sicrhau bod Cymru yn cadw ei safle fel arweinydd byd-eang o ran ynni morol. Oherwydd mae arnaf ofn, Llywydd, os nad yw Llywodraeth Cymru yn cymryd y camau hyn er mwyn y bobl, gyda'r bobl, ac ar ran pobl Bae Abertawe, y byddwn yn y pen draw yn gweld Ffrainc yn cymryd perchnogaeth o'r prosiect hwn ac yn arwain y ffordd yn fyd-eang. Mae'n gyfle unigryw y gellid ei roi i Ffrainc o ganlyniad i Lywodraeth y DU yn gwneud y penderfyniad hwn. Felly, ni fyddwn yn troi cefn ar y sector. I'r gwrthwyneb; byddwn ni'n edrych ar sut y gallwn adeiladu ar y prosiectau hynny yn ne Sir Benfro, yn Aberdaugleddau a hefyd ar Ynys Môn, a byddwn ni'n edrych ar sut y gallwn ni ddal ati i adeiladu'r cryfder a'r galluoedd, galluoedd ymchwil, o fewn y sector hefyd. Mae'n rhaid i mi ddweud, cyffyrddodd yr Aelod â phwynt hollbwysig annibyniaeth ynni a diogelwch ynni, sydd mor bwysig i economi ffyniannus. Llwyddodd yr Unol Daleithiau i sicrhau annibyniaeth ynni drwy eu camau gweithredu ar ffracio. Rydym ni yn Llywodraeth Lafur Cymru wedi ymrwymo'n llwyr i sicrhau cymaint o annibyniaeth ynni â phosibl o ffynonellau adnewyddadwy. Rydym yn parhau yn gwbl ymrwymedig i'r achos hwnnw a byddwn yn archwilio pob llwybr i sicrhau twf gwyrddach, gwell o ran cynhyrchu ynni. Rydym yn benderfynol i sicrhau bod cyfleoedd tecach i ddatblygiad economaidd yn cael eu trosglwyddo ledled y rhanbarthau. Rwy'n ymwybodol iawn o'r rhwystredigaeth sy'n bodoli ym Mae Abertawe ac mewn mannau eraill yng Nghymru o ran anghydraddoldeb rhanbarthol. Dyna holl bwynt y cynllun gweithredu economaidd newydd - datrys anghydraddoldebau ledled Cymru a gwneud yn siŵr bod y rhanbarthau hynny sy'n teimlo ar y cyrion ar hyn o bryd yn teimlo eu bod wedi'u calonogi a'u grymuso i fod mor gryf ag y gallan nhw fod, ar sail eu galluoedd presennol. Ac, o fewn rhanbarth Bae Abertawe, gwyddom fod un o'r cryfderau mwyaf sydd ganddyn nhw yn eu meddiant ar hyn o bryd yn ymwneud ag ynni morol a byddwn yn cefnogi'r rhanbarth hwnnw ar bob cam o'r daith.
