English: We have maintained regular contact with the industry through our house builder engagement programme and the construction forum and its sub-groups, which my colleague Lee Waters chairs, but I attend. Through the construction forum, we have developed a recovery plan - COVID's the standing item on the agenda - to address the issues the industry faces, which I know David Melding will be very familiar with - so, supply chain issues, outbreaks in the workforce track and trace or onsite testing regimes where projects are being held up by people being asked to self-isolate and so on. We've also continued collaborative working in matters relating to early payment, procurement. And I'm very pleased indeed to say that we've managed to put together a pipeline to ensure cash flow and awareness of work opportunities particularly for SMEs across the piste. So, they've been very pleased to work with us to make sure that that pipeline is in place. And we've also got a number of funds, which are available for SMEs - specifically targeted at them, in fact - across Wales, managed by the Development Bank of Wales, including, for example, the stalled sites fund and so on. The other thing we've been doing with the industry, which I know will be of particular interest to David Melding, is that we've been working with them to understand what the social house space standards are to encourage builders who are building small numbers of houses across Wales - plots of five houses and so on - to build to those standards, to allow, if there are cash flow or market difficulties, RSLs and councils to buy off-plan from those builders, to assist with cash flow and to keep them alive and in the market and in the procurement cycle. So, we've been doing a range of work with SME providers, as I say, across Government, to make sure that the industry as a whole stays afloat, and that we can assist if there's market volatility as the pandemic unfolds.
Welsh: Rydym wedi cadw mewn cysylltiad rheolaidd â'r diwydiant drwy ein rhaglen ymgysylltu ag adeiladwyr tai a'r fforwm adeiladu a'i is-grwpiau, dan gadeiryddiaeth fy nghyd-Aelod, Lee Waters, ond rwy'n eu mynychu. Drwy'r fforwm adeiladu, rydym wedi datblygu cynllun adfer - COVID yw'r eitem sefydlog ar yr agenda - i fynd i'r afael â'r problemau y mae'r diwydiant yn eu hwynebu, y gwn y bydd David Melding yn gyfarwydd iawn â hwy - felly, materion yn ymwneud â'r gadwyn gyflenwi, achosion o fewn systemau tracio ac olrhain y gweithlu neu drefniadau profi ar safleoedd lle mae prosiectau'n cael eu gohirio oherwydd bod angen i bobl hunanynysu ac yn y blaen. Rydym hefyd wedi parhau i gydweithio ar faterion sy'n ymwneud â chaffael a thalu cynnar. Ac rwy'n falch iawn o ddweud bod gennym nifer o bethau yn yr arfaeth i sicrhau llif arian ac ymwybyddiaeth o gyfleoedd gwaith yn enwedig i fusnesau bach a chanolig yn gyffredinol. Felly, maent wedi bod yn falch iawn o weithio gyda ni i sicrhau bod y pethau hynny ar waith. Ac mae gennym hefyd nifer o ffynonellau cyllid, sydd ar gael i fusnesau bach a chanolig - wedi'u targedu'n benodol atynt, mewn gwirionedd - ym mhob rhan o Gymru, a reolir gan Fanc Datblygu Cymru, gan gynnwys, er enghraifft, y gronfa safleoedd segur ac yn y blaen. Y peth arall rydym wedi bod yn ei wneud gyda'r diwydiant, a gwn y bydd hyn o ddiddordeb arbennig i David Melding, yw gweithio gyda hwy i ddeall beth yw safonau gofod tai cymdeithasol i annog adeiladwyr sy'n adeiladu niferoedd bach o dai ledled Cymru - lleiniau o bum tŷ ac yn y blaen - i adeiladu yn unol â'r safonau hynny, er mwyn caniatáu, os oes anawsterau llif arian neu anawsterau yn y farchnad, i landlordiaid cymdeithasol cofrestredig a chynghorau brynu tai oddi ar y cynllun gan yr adeiladwyr hynny, i gynorthwyo gyda llif arian ac i'w cadw'n hyfyw ac yn y farchnad ac yn y cylch caffael. Felly, rydym wedi bod yn gwneud amrywiaeth o waith gyda darparwyr bach a chanolig, fel y dywedaf, ar draws y Llywodraeth, i sicrhau bod y diwydiant cyfan yn goroesi, a gallwn gynorthwyo os oes ansefydlogrwydd yn y farchnad wrth i'r pandemig ddatblygu.
