English: Can I thank the Member for his question and also thank him for contacting TfW directly regarding the inquiry that he's again raised today? It was an important piece of work that was carried out by a constituent of Russell George, and I really do appreciate the constructive feedback that we've received regarding fares on the Cambrian line. I should just say, before I move to the broader issue of the fares regime, that TfW have passed this feedback to the team that's responsible for setting rail fares; they're looking into it at this moment in time, in readiness for the next round of fare changes. And TfW, I can assure the Member, will pay particular attention to the fares on this route to ensure that any anomalies are addressed. Now, the fare regime is, of course, based on decades-old regulations, and there are a number of interventions that TfW will be making, and already are making, to reduce fares for many people, particularly young people, and to ensure the fare regime is more transparent and easier to understand. But this matter is incredibly important for the next 15 years - for the entire period of the new franchise. And for that reason, the rail delivery group, which includes TfW, is looking into delivering an easier-to-use and much better value fare system. It will be underpinned by an easier-to-use range of fares, and it will be delivered by updating that set of regulations that I mentioned. It could see pay-as-you-go, with a price cap, introduced on commuter services right across the country. It could give flexible workers a far better deal as a consequence. It would also enable greater local control over fares, which is something that I know that Members in this Chamber are keen to see. And I think it would also, in turn, lead to better integration of rail fares with those of other modes of transport, for example with buses, where we also intend to give councils more control. With a fully reformed fares system, for the first time passengers would be able to benefit from a guarantee that they would pay the best fares for their journey, every time, with no need to split their tickets. That is part of our vision for a fully integrated and fair rail, bus and public transport system in Wales.
Welsh: A gaf fi ddiolch i'r Aelod am ei gwestiwn a diolch iddo hefyd am gysylltu â Trafnidiaeth Cymru yn uniongyrchol mewn perthynas â'r ymchwiliad y soniodd amdano eto heddiw? Roedd yn waith pwysig a wnaed gan un o etholwyr Russell George, ac rwy'n gwerthfawrogi'r adborth adeiladol a gawsom ynghylch prisiau siwrneiau ar reilffordd y Cambrian. Dylwn ddweud, cyn i mi symud at fater ehangach y gyfundrefn brisiau siwrneiau, fod Trafnidiaeth Cymru wedi trosglwyddo'r adborth hwn i'r tîm sy'n gyfrifol am bennu prisiau siwrneiau ar drenau; maent yn edrych ar y mater ar hyn o bryd, er mwyn bod yn barod ar gyfer y rownd nesaf o newidiadau i brisiau siwrneiau. A gallaf sicrhau'r Aelod y bydd Trafnidiaeth Cymru'n rhoi sylw arbennig i'r prisiau siwrneiau ar y llwybr hwn er mwyn sicrhau yr eir i'r afael ag unrhyw anomaleddau. Nawr, mae'r gyfundrefn brisiau siwrneiau, wrth gwrs, yn seiliedig ar reoliadau sy'n ddegawdau oed, a bydd Trafnidiaeth Cymru yn gwneud nifer o ymyriadau, ac maent yn eu gwneud eisoes, i leihau prisiau siwrneiau i lawer o bobl, yn enwedig pobl ifanc, ac i sicrhau bod y gyfundrefn brisiau siwrneiau yn fwy tryloyw ac yn haws ei deall. Ond mae'r mater hwn yn hynod o bwysig ar gyfer y 15 mlynedd nesaf - am oes gyfan y fasnachfraint newydd. Ac am y rheswm hwnnw, mae'r Rail Delivery Group, sy'n cynnwys Trafnidiaeth Cymru, yn ystyried darparu system brisiau siwrneiau sy'n haws ei defnyddio ac yn cynnig llawer mwy o werth am arian. Bydd yn seiliedig ar ystod o brisiau siwrneiau sy'n haws ei defnyddio, a bydd yn cael ei chyflwyno drwy ddiweddaru'r set honno o reoliadau y soniais amdani. Gallai olygu cyflwyno system dalu wrth fynd, gyda chap pris, ar wasanaethau cymudo ledled y wlad. Gallai roi bargen well o lawer i weithwyr hyblyg o ganlyniad. Byddai hefyd yn caniatáu mwy o reolaeth leol dros brisiau siwrneiau, sy'n rhywbeth y gwn fod Aelodau yn y Siambr hon yn awyddus i'w weld. A chredaf y byddai hefyd, yn ei dro, yn arwain at integreiddio gwell rhwng prisiau siwrneiau ar drenau a mathau eraill o drafnidiaeth, er enghraifft, gyda bysiau, lle rydym hefyd yn bwriadu rhoi mwy o reolaeth i gynghorau. Gyda system brisiau siwrneiau wedi'i diwygio'n llawn, am y tro cyntaf byddai modd i deithwyr elwa ar warant y byddent yn talu'r prisiau gorau am eu taith bob tro, heb orfod prynu sawl tocyn. Mae hynny'n rhan o'n gweledigaeth am system drenau, bysiau a thrafnidiaeth gyhoeddus gwbl integredig a theg yng Nghymru.
