English: I very much welcome the statement. I and my constituents are also disappointed the UK Government chose to pursue its building safety pledges on an England-only basis. Didn't we used to have a lot of LCMs from them? I have two areas of my constituency that have buildings affected. I agree with the principle that developers should contribute towards the cost of fixing these problems - they were the ones who created these problems in the first place. I'd go further and say I believe that the developers should fully fund remediation. Unfortunately, in Swansea East, there are buildings built by Carillion, which has gone out of business. Who is going to fund putting these buildings right? I'm also told that other buildings were built by a single purpose vehicle that now no longer exists. I welcome the £375 million to cover the cost of remediating buildings. You state publicly that leaseholders should not foot the bill for fire safety, which I'm sure they'll be very pleased to hear. How far will that sum go to remedying the fire safety problems? Finally, is this not another reason for bringing in a new set of building controls and an end to leasehold?
Welsh: Rwy'n croesawu'r datganiad yn fawr. Rwyf i a fy etholwyr hefyd yn siomedig bod Llywodraeth y DU wedi dewis mynd ar drywydd ei haddewidion diogelwch adeiladu ar sail Lloegr yn unig. Onid oeddem ni'n arfer cael llawer o femoranda cydsyniad deddfwriaethol ganddyn nhw? Mae gennyf i ddwy ardal yn fy etholaeth sydd ag adeiladau wedi'u heffeithio. Rwy'n cytuno â'r egwyddor y dylai datblygwyr gyfrannu at y gost o ddatrys y problemau hyn - nhw oedd y rhai a greodd y problemau hyn yn y lle cyntaf. Byddwn i'n mynd ymhellach ac yn dweud fy mod i'n credu y dylai'r datblygwyr ariannu'r gwaith adfer yn llawn. Yn anffodus, yn Nwyrain Abertawe, mae adeiladau wedi'u hadeiladu gan Carillion, sydd wedi mynd allan o fusnes. Pwy sy'n mynd i ariannu unioni'r adeiladau hyn? Cefais wybod hefyd fod adeiladau eraill wedi'u hadeiladu gan gyfrwng un pwrpas nad yw bellach yn bodoli. Rwy'n croesawu'r £375 miliwn i dalu am y gost o adfer adeiladau. Rydych chi'n datgan yn gyhoeddus na ddylai lesddeiliaid dalu'r bil am ddiogelwch tân, ac rwy'n siŵr y byddan nhw'n falch iawn o glywed hynny. I ba raddau y bydd y swm hwnnw'n mynd i unioni'r problemau diogelwch tân? Yn olaf, onid yw hyn yn rheswm arall dros gyflwyno cyfres newydd o reolaethau adeiladu a rhoi terfyn ar lesddaliad?
English: Good afternoon, Minister. I'm sorry that you're going to have to address this circle of people again. Thank you for your statement, Minister, and thank you also for meeting with homeowners and myself a few weeks ago - I'm very grateful. There are a few matters that I just wanted to raise. I know from correspondence with you and your officials in the last few weeks that you are due to bring forward a residents engagement strategy. I welcome this, and I know that you are committed to that, because I know that you also appreciate the frustrations that many of the homeowners and leaseholders have, which obviously exacerbate their mental health and the stress that they feel. I know that you are committed to this broad, open homeowner group to engage directly, although I do recognise that it is complex and that there are various layers. So, I wondered if you could just very briefly outline what your plan would entail and what sort of mechanisms or opportunities will be available for those homeowners to engage with you and to be communicated with. Diolch yn fawr iawn. Thank you.
Welsh: Prynhawn da, Gweinidog. Mae'n ddrwg gennyf i y bydd yn rhaid i chi annerch y cylch hwn o bobl eto. Diolch am y datganiad, Gweinidog, a diolch i chi hefyd am gyfarfod â pherchnogion tai a minnau ychydig wythnosau'n ôl - rwy'n ddiolchgar iawn. Mae ychydig o faterion yr oeddwn i eisiau eu codi. Gwn i o ohebiaeth â chi a'ch swyddogion yn ystod yr wythnosau diwethaf eich bod chi i fod i gyflwyno strategaeth ymgysylltu â phreswylwyr. Rwy'n croesawu hyn, a gwn eich bod chi wedi ymrwymo i hynny, oherwydd rwy'n gwybod eich bod chi hefyd yn gwerthfawrogi'r rhwystredigaethau sydd gan lawer o'r perchnogion tai a'r lesddeiliaid, sy'n amlwg yn gwaethygu eu hiechyd meddwl a'r straen y maen nhw'n ei deimlo. Rwy'n gwybod eich bod chi wedi ymrwymo i'r grŵp eang, agored hwn o berchnogion tai i ymgysylltu'n uniongyrchol, er fy mod i'n cydnabod ei fod yn gymhleth a bod gwahanol haenau. Felly, meddwl oeddwn i tybed a allwch chi amlinellu'n fyr iawn yr hyn y byddai eich cynllun yn ei olygu a pha fath o fecanweithiau neu gyfleoedd fydd ar gael i'r perchnogion tai hynny ymgysylltu â chi a chyfathrebu â chi. Diolch yn fawr iawn. Diolch.
English: Item 5 is next, and that's a statement by the Minister for Education and Welsh Language on evaluating and improving education and learning in Wales. I call on the Minister, Jeremy Miles.
Welsh: Eitem 5 sydd nesaf, datganiad gan Weinidog y Gymraeg ac Addysg ar werthuso a gwella addysg a dysg yng Nghymru. Galwaf ar y Gweinidog, Jeremy Miles.
English: Thank you for your statement, Minister. I think there is certainly a lot to welcome in this new approach. I appreciate the need for transparency and openness, but when our schools, our learners and our communities are so varied, with widely different challenges, there were elements of the old system of categorization that could be somewhat reductive, and that was something that I saw and felt myself in my many years in the teaching profession. So, I was particularly interested to read the section of the guidance around learner progression for individuals, groups and schools, going back to the notion of value added, which was a very good way, I felt, of measuring pupil progress and school attainment several years ago. So, the exploration of value added is a useful way of measuring the extent to which attainment gaps have been closed for our eligible for free school meals pupils and our additional learning needs pupils, for example, capturing the individual journeys of learners, focusing on their needs and also levelling the playing field. Minister, would you agree with me that this is perhaps the most accurate way of measuring and locating good teaching, and how will this new approach that we see evident here then aid in the sharing of this type of learner-focused best practice?
Welsh: Diolch am eich datganiad, Gweinidog. Rwy'n credu bod llawer i'w groesawu yn y dull newydd hwn yn sicr. Rwy'n gwerthfawrogi'r angen am dryloywder a bod yn agored, ond pan fydd ein hysgolion, ein dysgwyr a'n cymunedau mor amrywiol, gyda heriau gwahanol iawn, yr oedd elfennau o'r hen system gategoreiddio a allai fod braidd yn ostyngol, ac roedd hynny'n rhywbeth a welais ac a deimlais fy hun yn fy mlynyddoedd lawer yn y proffesiwn addysgu. Felly, roedd gennyf ddiddordeb arbennig mewn darllen y rhan o'r canllawiau ynghylch dilyniant dysgwyr ar gyfer unigolion, grwpiau ac ysgolion, gan fynd yn ôl at y syniad o werth ychwanegol, a oedd yn ffordd dda iawn, roeddwn i o'r farn, o fesur cynnydd disgyblion a chyrhaeddiad ysgolion sawl blwyddyn yn ôl. Felly, mae archwilio gwerth ychwanegol yn ffordd ddefnyddiol o fesur i ba raddau y mae bylchau cyrhaeddiad wedi'u cau ar gyfer ein disgyblion sy'n gymwys i gael prydau ysgol am ddim a'n disgyblion anghenion dysgu ychwanegol, er enghraifft, cipio teithiau unigol dysgwyr, canolbwyntio ar eu hanghenion a hefyd sicrhau tegwch. Gweinidog, a fyddech chi'n cytuno â mi mai dyma'r ffordd fwyaf cywir efallai o fesur a lleoli addysgu da, a sut y bydd y dull newydd hwn a welwn yn amlwg yma yn helpu i rannu'r math hwn o arfer gorau sy'n canolbwyntio ar y dysgwr?
English: Well, I certainly defer to the expertise of Vikki Howells and agree with her that the value added by schools is the most important measure, because you could have a brilliant child starting school aged four or five, brilliant at maths - you want to ensure that that progression continues, otherwise they'll be sitting at the back causing trouble, because they'll be bored. And, equally, you want to ensure that we're rewarding the effort that's involved in teaching less able children; it's far harder than teaching more able children. And the old system of the league tables and the coloured system, I think, really rewarded those sorts of schools that were able to coast. So, I really support this and I just want to make sure that the new approach really does track the value added by each school with each pupil. They're not necessarily going to be published, but that system of self-evaluation is going to really reward schools for the effort they put into every young person, so that it's every child attaining to the best of their ability.
Welsh: Wel, rwyf i yn sicr yn ymostwng i arbenigedd Vikki Howells ac yn cytuno â hi mai'r gwerth a ychwanegir gan ysgolion yw'r mesur pwysicaf, oherwydd gallech fod â phlentyn gwych yn dechrau yn yr ysgol yn bedair neu bump oed, yn wych mewn mathemateg - rydych chi eisiau sicrhau bod y dilyniant hwnnw'n parhau, neu fel arall byddan nhw'n eistedd yn y cefn yn achosi trafferth, oherwydd byddan nhw wedi diflasu. Ac, yn yr un modd, rydych chi eisiau sicrhau ein bod yn gwobrwyo'r ymdrech sy'n gysylltiedig ag addysgu plant llai abl; mae'n llawer anoddach nag addysgu plant mwy abl. Ac roedd hen system y tablau cynghrair a'r system liw, rwy'n credu, yn gwobrwyo'r mathau hynny o ysgolion a oedd yn gallu cadw i fynd heb lawer o ymdrech. Felly, rwy'n cefnogi hyn mewn gwirionedd ac rwyf eisiau gwneud yn siŵr bod y dull newydd yn olrhain y gwerth a ychwanegir gan bob ysgol gyda phob disgybl. Nid ydyn nhw o reidrwydd yn mynd i gael eu cyhoeddi, ond mae'r system hunanwerthuso honno'n mynd i wobrwyo ysgolion mewn gwirionedd am yr ymdrech y maen nhw'n ei rhoi i bob person ifanc, fel bod pob plentyn yn cyrraedd hyd eithaf ei allu.
English: I thank you for that and I think that's very much at the heart of the reforms. And Estyn will play a really important role, from an accountability inspection perspective, in evaluating the school's own capacity for self-improvement, if you like, in the way it designs the curriculum, and I think that's a supportive part of the landscape. I just want to go back, in response to what Jenny Rathbone is saying, to that idea of both support and challenge for each individual learner. It is not about getting learners who may be less able academically up to a baseline; it's consistently supporting and challenging each learner - whatever your potential is, that you're fulfilling that; whatever your interests are, that you have an opportunity to pursue those. And it's a very bespoke way of approaching it, which is, I think, exciting - quite challenging, I think, as well, in a sense, across the system. But I think, in my discussion with teachers, in a way, that's why the curriculum still excites so many teaching professionals, because they can see that that holds the key, in a way, to making sure that that value-added journey for each individual learner is made a reality.
Welsh: Diolch ichi am hynna ac rwy'n credu bod hynny wrth wraidd y diwygiadau. A bydd Estyn yn chwarae rhan bwysig iawn, o safbwynt arolygu atebolrwydd, wrth werthuso gallu'r ysgol ei hun i hunanwella, os mynnwch chi, yn y ffordd y mae'n cynllunio'r cwricwlwm, ac rwy'n credu bod hynny'n rhan gefnogol o'r dirwedd. Rwyf eisiau mynd yn ôl, mewn ymateb i'r hyn y mae Jenny Rathbone yn ei ddweud, at y syniad hwnnw o gefnogaeth a her i bob dysgwr unigol. Nid yw'n ymwneud â chael dysgwyr a allai fod yn llai abl yn academaidd hyd at linell sylfaen; mae'n cefnogi ac yn herio pob dysgwr yn gyson - beth bynnag yw eich potensial, eich bod yn cyflawni hynny; beth bynnag yw eich diddordebau, eich bod yn cael cyfle i fynd ar drywydd y rheini. Ac mae'n ffordd bwrpasol iawn o fynd ati, sydd, rwy'n credu, yn gyffrous - yn eithaf heriol, rwy'n credu, hefyd, ar draws y system. Ond rwy'n credu, yn fy nhrafodaeth gydag athrawon, mewn ffordd, mai dyna pam mae'r cwricwlwm yn dal i gyffroi cynifer o weithwyr addysgu proffesiynol, oherwydd gallan nhw weld bod hynny'n dal yr allwedd, mewn ffordd, i sicrhau bod y daith gwerth ychwanegol honno i bob dysgwr unigol yn cael ei gwireddu.
English: Diolch, Dirprwy Lywydd, and thank you to the Minister for today's statement. As you know, before I was elected to the Senedd, I worked in education for a number of years. It's one of the most challenging jobs I've had, and I take my hat off to all my friends and their colleagues in education working to support our children and young people, day in, day out. Visiting schools in Rhondda, I've heard some really positive feedback to the changes the Minister has introduced over the sixth Senedd. More specifically, the greater autonomy the Curriculum for Wales provides, and the changes still to come, will ensure we continue to see an improvement to education and learning in Wales. Teaching assistants play a crucial role in supporting the delivery of these changes. Will the Minister provide an update on the work that has been undertaken, following the written statement published in February earlier this year, in relation to the task and finish group on activities to support those assisting teaching?
Welsh: Diolch, Dirprwy Lywydd, a diolch i'r Gweinidog am y datganiad heddiw. Fel y gwyddoch chi, cyn imi gael fy ethol i'r Senedd, bûm yn gweithio ym myd addysg am nifer o flynyddoedd. Mae'n un o'r swyddi mwyaf heriol i mi ei chael, ac rwy'n tynnu fy het i fy holl ffrindiau a'u cydweithwyr ym myd addysg sy'n gweithio i gefnogi ein plant a'n pobl ifanc, o ddydd i ddydd. Wrth ymweld ag ysgolion yn y Rhondda, rwyf wedi clywed adborth cadarnhaol iawn i'r newidiadau y mae'r Gweinidog wedi'u cyflwyno dros y chweched Senedd. Yn fwy penodol, bydd yr ymreolaeth ehangach y mae'r Cwricwlwm i Gymru yn ei darparu, a'r newidiadau sydd eto i ddod, yn sicrhau ein bod yn parhau i weld gwelliant mewn addysg a dysgu yng Nghymru. Mae cynorthwywyr addysgu yn chwarae rhan hanfodol yn y gwaith o gefnogi'r gwaith o gyflawni'r newidiadau hyn. A wnaiff y Gweinidog roi'r wybodaeth ddiweddaraf am y gwaith sydd wedi'i wneud, yn dilyn y datganiad ysgrifenedig a gyhoeddwyd ym mis Chwefror yn gynharach eleni, mewn cysylltiad â'r grŵp gorchwyl a gorffen ar weithgareddau i gefnogi'r rhai sy'n cynorthwyo addysgu?
English: Thank you to the Minister for the statement.
Welsh: Diolch i'r Gweinidog am ei ddatganiad.
English: I thank the Minister for the statement. I know he shares my frustration about the way this has been handled, the seeming indecision of UK Government about these elements of border control and the implications of that, of course, for Welsh Government, for local government and also for the community of Holyhead. It's with regret again that we hear of what appears to be more lack of fundamental respect when it comes to responding in a timely manner to requests for meetings that are so crucial in order to promote the kind of co-operation that is vital at difficult times like this. Just two short questions, one on the question of cost; I think it's important to keep a public tally of costs. What additional resource will need to be put into pressing ahead with the design stage of the Holyhead facility, and could the Minister confirm if that's in addition to the £6 million that has already been earmarked or spent? Of course, that's money that we need to see being reimbursed by the UK Government. And secondly, a local issue about port infrastructure. Of course, the development of the UK Government element of the border control post took away the HGV park. The delay in pressing ahead with the Welsh Government border control post means that site is being used as a temporary lorry park. There are implications now that you are looking to press ahead with that. Is there going to be an acceleration of plans to look for alternative long-term HGV parking facilities, given that this plot 9 is back in play, as it were, as a border control post?
Welsh: Diolch i'r Gweinidog am y datganiad. Rwy'n gwybod ei fod yn rhannu fy rhwystredigaeth ynglŷn â'r ffordd yr ymdriniwyd â hyn, yr hyn sy'n ymddangos fel petruster gan Lywodraeth y DU am yr elfennau hyn o reoli ffiniau a goblygiadau hynny, wrth gwrs, i Lywodraeth Cymru, i lywodraeth leol a hefyd i gymuned Caergybi. Mae'n destun gofid eto ein bod ni'n clywed am yr hyn sy'n ymddangos yn fwy o ddiffyg parch sylfaenol pan ddaw'n fater o ymateb yn amserol i geisiadau am gyfarfodydd sydd mor hanfodol er mwyn hyrwyddo'r math o gydweithrediad sy'n hanfodol ar adegau anodd fel hyn. Dim ond dau gwestiwn byr, un ar fater cost; rwy'n credu ei bod hi'n bwysig cadw cyfrif cyhoeddus o gostau. Pa adnoddau ychwanegol fydd angen eu rhoi ar waith gyda cham dylunio cyfleuster Caergybi, ac a allai'r Gweinidog gadarnhau a yw hynny'n ychwanegol at y £6 miliwn sydd eisoes wedi'i glustnodi neu ei wario? Wrth gwrs, mae hynny'n arian mae angen i ni ei weld yn cael ei ad-dalu gan Lywodraeth y DU. Ac yn ail, mater lleol am seilwaith porthladdoedd. Wrth gwrs, fe wnaeth y gwaith o ddatblygu elfen Llywodraeth y DU o'r swydd rheoli ffiniau arwain at golli'r parc HGV. Mae'r oedi cyn bwrw ymlaen â swydd rheoli ffiniau Llywodraeth Cymru yn golygu bod y safle'n cael ei ddefnyddio fel maes parcio lorïau dros dro. Mae goblygiadau yn awr eich bod yn bwriadu bwrw ymlaen â hynny. A fydd cynlluniau'n cyflymu i chwilio am gyfleusterau parcio HGV hirdymor amgen, o gofio bod y plot 9 hwn yn ôl ar waith, fel petai, fel swydd rheoli ar y ffin?
English: So, on your second point first, yes, we are engaging on how to look at a longer term arrangement for HGV facilities, and that is not as straightforward as I would wish it to be, but I'll happily keep the Member updated on the progress we're making and on the cost. The design cost will be not quite £1 million - that's my expectation. It's around about that figure, and that will be in addition to the £6 million of money already spent.
Welsh: Felly, o ran eich ail bwynt yn gyntaf, ydym, rydym ni yn ymgysylltu ar sut i edrych ar drefniant tymor hwy ar gyfer cyfleusterau HGV, ac nid yw hynny mor syml ag y byddwn i'n dymuno iddo fod, ond byddaf yn falch o roi'r wybodaeth ddiweddaraf i'r Aelod am y cynnydd yr ydym ni'n ei wneud ac ar y gost. Ni fydd y gost ddylunio cymaint ag £1 filiwn - dyna fy nisgwyliad i. Mae'n agos i'r ffigur hwnnw, a bydd hynny'n ychwanegol at y £6 miliwn o arian a wariwyd eisoes.
English: Could you ask that contractors in Holyhead engage with local partners to maximise opportunities for local workers, and also with the supply chains? And also, if you do have conversations with UK Government and HMRC, could you say that there is an existing Welsh Government-owned European-funded high-fibre network connection that could be utilised now by any telecoms carrier or internet service provider on a wholesale basis to provide high bandwidth and dark fibre capacity to the site? It's available immediately, so avoiding expensive insulation costs and allowing immediate access to any data, mobile and telecom requirements. I know FibreSpeed have been trying to make this point to HMRC, and they've just been saying that they need to get on the supplier provider list for procurement. That's not what they're asking. They actually just want to inform people that this is already in place, and nobody seems to be acknowledging it. So, could you take that forward, please?
Welsh: A allech chi ofyn i gontractwyr yng Nghaergybi ymgysylltu â phartneriaid lleol i fanteisio i'r eithaf ar gyfleoedd i weithwyr lleol, a hefyd gyda'r cadwyni cyflenwi? A hefyd, os byddwch chi yn cael sgyrsiau gyda Llywodraeth y DU a Chyllid a Thollau Ei Mawrhydi, a allech chi ddweud bod cysylltiad rhwydwaith ffibr uchel sy'n eiddo i Lywodraeth Cymru ac a ariennir gan Ewrop a allai gael ei ddefnyddio'n awr gan unrhyw gludwr telegyfathrebiadau neu ddarparwr gwasanaeth rhyngrwyd ar sail cyfanwerthu i ddarparu lled band uchel a chapasiti ffibr tywyll i'r safle? Mae ar gael ar unwaith, felly'n osgoi costau inswleiddio drud a chaniatáu mynediad ar unwaith i unrhyw ofynion data, symudol a thelegyfathrebu. Rwy'n gwybod bod FibreSpeed wedi bod yn ceisio gwneud y pwynt hwn i CThEM, ac maen nhw newydd fod yn dweud bod angen iddyn nhw fynd ar y rhestr o ddarparwyr cyflenwyr ar gyfer caffael. Nid dyna maen nhw'n ei ofyn. Mewn gwirionedd, maen nhw am roi gwybod i bobl bod hyn eisoes ar waith, ac nid yw'n ymddangos bod unrhyw un yn ei gydnabod. Felly, a allech chi fwrw ymlaen â hynny, os gwelwch chi'n dda?
English: On that second point, I know the Member has corresponded with the Deputy Minister for Climate Change, with his responsibilities, but I'll make sure the point is made when it comes to the implementation of permanent facilities that are going to be required, and the Member has, to be fair, been entirely consistent in her interest on this point. I'll also make sure there's a joined-up conversation with the Deputy Minister for Climate Change on the issue as well. On the point about jobs, if we're going to proceed to the Bill stage for border control posts, whether in north Wales or, indeed, in west Wales, then we will procure those in a way that you would expect the Welsh Government to do so, with expectations on contractors that they will positively look to the local supply chain, and what that means in terms of local labour. So, yes, we have already had engagement with Kier, who are the preferred contractors, who are going to be doing the design work, and they're looking to make sure they do engage with the local supply chain, and there will be minimum expectations about their engagement with the local supply chain and how they subcontract their work. So, yes, our approach on procurement - and I note the Minister with lead responsibility across the Government for procurement is in the Chamber - would be undertaken if we do move to the Bill stage. So, yes, I'm happy to give the Member that confirmation of the continued approach of this Welsh Government.
Welsh: O ran yr ail bwynt hwnnw, gwn fod yr Aelod wedi gohebu â'r Dirprwy Weinidog Newid Hinsawdd, â'i gyfrifoldebau, ond byddaf yn sicrhau bod y pwynt yn cael ei wneud pan ddaw'n fater o weithredu cyfleusterau parhaol y bydd eu hangen, ac mae'r Aelod, a bod yn deg, wedi bod yn gwbl gyson yn ei diddordeb ar y pwynt hwn. Byddaf hefyd yn sicrhau bod sgwrs gydgysylltiedig gyda'r Dirprwy Weinidog Newid Hinsawdd ar y mater hefyd. O ran y pwynt am swyddi, os ydym ni am symud ymlaen i'r cam Bil ar gyfer swyddi rheoli ffiniau, boed yn y gogledd neu, yn wir, yn y gorllewin, yna byddwn ni'n caffael y rheini mewn ffordd y byddech chi'n disgwyl i Lywodraeth Cymru ei gwneud, gyda disgwyliadau ar gontractwyr y byddan nhw'n edrych yn gadarnhaol ar y gadwyn gyflenwi leol, a'r hyn mae hynny'n ei olygu o ran llafur lleol. Felly, ydym, rydym ni eisoes wedi ymgysylltu â Kier, sef y contractwyr a ffefrir, a fydd yn gwneud y gwaith dylunio, ac maen nhw'n ceisio sicrhau eu bod yn ymgysylltu â'r gadwyn gyflenwi leol, a bydd disgwyliadau sylfaenol ynghylch eu hymgysylltiad â'r gadwyn gyflenwi leol a sut maen nhw'n is-gontractio eu gwaith. Felly, ie, byddai ein dull o gaffael - ac rwy'n nodi fod y Gweinidog sydd â chyfrifoldeb arweiniol ar draws y Llywodraeth dros gaffael yn y Siambr - yn cael ei ddefnyddio os byddwn yn symud at gam y Bil. Felly, ydw, rwy'n hapus i roi'r cadarnhad hwnnw i'r Aelod o ddull gweithredu parhaus y Llywodraeth hon yng Nghymru.
