English: Thank you for that response. In terms of the gap in the law, the loophole, it doesn't matter about the semantics here, but as you said, it's a matter of an ethical injustice in way, so even if local authorities aren't losing out, it is an issue that needs to be resolved, and we need to close that loophole. Clearly, this is something that the next Government will have to tackle. I would like to turn now - I hope the sound has improved - to a different issue, which I raised in a recent letter to you, namely the fact that two councils had received a financial settlement that was much lower than the rest. The councils of Ceredigion and Wrexham were only offered 2 per cent and 2.3 per cent, which is well below the average of 3.8 per cent. The leader of Ceredigion council, Ellen ap Gwynn, has warned that this could lead to job losses and cuts in services. This would be entirely unfair, I'm sure you'd agree, on the workers and the council, who have been doing such crucial work in keeping local residents safe during the pandemic. Now, I understand that your Government uses a formula to allocate funding, so this decision isn't a deliberate decision to underfund them, but in the past, when there have been significant differences within the settlement, the Government has put a funding floor in place, something that the WLGA have called for this year. I know, in the past, Minister, that you've said that you only brought that floor in when some councils identified very negative impacts and that they would get less rather than any increase at all, but the pandemic does bring us into a situation that is unprecedented and the demand on services has been so much the greater. Implementing this now - increasing the contribution to both councils - would only cost some £2.4 million. You've said to me that you would consider everything carefully before announcing the final settlement. So, can you tell us today whether you will implement a funding floor in this case? I hope the sound was better this time.
Welsh: Diolch am yr ateb yna. O ran y bwlch yn y gyfraith, efallai does dim ots am y semanteg gyda hyn, ond fel roeddech chi'n dweud, mae e'n fater o anghyfiawnder moesol bron, a dwi'n meddwl, oherwydd hynny, hyd yn oed os dyw llywodraeth leol ddim yn colli mas, mae angen gwneud yn siŵr bod hynna ddim yn digwydd, ac mae angen cau'r bwlch yna. Yn amlwg, mae hyn yn rhywbeth bydd yn rhaid i'r Llywodraeth nesaf fynd i'r afael ag e lot mwy. Hoffwn i droi nawr - a dwi'n gobeithio bod y sŵn yn gweithio - at bwnc gwahanol y gwnes i ei godi mewn llythyr diweddar gyda chi, sef y ffaith bod dau gyngor sir wedi derbyn setliad ariannol llawer is na'r gweddill. Mae cynghorau Ceredigion a Wrecsam ond yn cael cynnydd o 2 y cant a 2.3 y cant, sydd ymhell islaw y cyfartaledd o 3.8 y cant. Mae arweinydd cyngor Ceredigion, Ellen ap Gwynn, wedi rhybuddio y gallai hyn arwain at golli swyddi a thorri gwasanaethau. Byddai hyn yn hollol annheg, dwi'n siŵr byddech chi'n cytuno â fi, ar y gweithwyr, ac ar y cyngor, sydd wedi bod yn gwneud gwaith mor hanfodol yn cadw trigolion lleol yn ddiogel yn ystod y pandemig. Nawr, rwy'n deall bod eich Llywodraeth yn defnyddio fformiwla er mwyn dyrannu'r arian, ac felly dydy'r penderfyniad yma ddim yn fwriadol i'w tangyllido nhw, ond yn y gorffennol, pan fo gwahaniaeth sylweddol wedi bod yn y setliad, mae'r Llywodraeth wedi gosod llawr cyllido, rhywbeth y mae'r WLGA wedi galw amdano y flwyddyn hon. Dwi'n gwybod, yn y gorffennol, Weinidog, eich bod chi wedi dweud eich bod chi ond wedi dod â'r llawr yna i mewn pan fu rhai cynghorau yn gweld rhywbeth negyddol ac y bydden nhw'n cael llai yn hytrach nag unrhyw gynnydd o gwbl, ond mae'r pandemig yn dod â ni i mewn i sefyllfa dŷn ni byth wedi bod ynddi hi o'r blaen ac mae'r galwadau ar wasanaethau wedi bod cymaint yn uwch. Byddai gweithredu hwn y nawr, gan gynyddu'r codiad i'r ddau gyngor, ond yn costio rhyw £2.4 miliwn. Rŷch chi wedi dweud wrthyf fi y byddech chi'n ystyried popeth, o ran ymateb i'r setliad, yn ofalus cyn cyhoeddi'r setliad terfynol. Felly, allwch chi ddweud wrthym heddiw, os gwelwch yn dda, a wnewch chi weithredu'r llawr cyllido? A dwi'n gobeithio bod y sŵn wedi gweithio.
