English: I'd like to raise issues regarding the transparency of the machinery of Welsh Government and proper ministerial accountability to this Senedd. For some time now, there has been some ambiguity as to which Minister is accountable to the National Assembly for the civil service, which supports ministerial work. In Westminster, that responsibility is given very clearly to the Prime Minister, but the list of ministerial responsibilities recently published by the Welsh Government doesn't throw much light on this issue, and I have a response to two written questions that were tabled by Adam Price, the leader of Plaid Cymru, asking the First Minister, Mark Drakeford, to explain how the mechanisms of the civil service have changed following the appointment of his new Cabinet. He states in response that staffing responsibilities are delegated to the Permanent Secretary and that Shan Morgan will write to Adam Price with a response. And in response to another particular question, asking quite clearly which Minister is responsible to this Assembly for the civil service, the response is the same, namely that staffing issues are delegated to the Permanent Secretary. Now, I ask you, therefore, for some clarity on this issue: which Minister does account to this Assembly for the civil service and the administration in their entirety that supports the Welsh Government? On an issue related to the transparency of the civil service, I've been concerned for some time about the inability to access information about staffing levels and staffing structures in terms of Welsh language standards, because that can have a direct impact on Government policy in that area and on the delivery of Government policy. It used to be Government practice to publish a structural chart of the main departments and the senior civil servants. I have searched for such a chart but the latest I've been able to find dates back to May 2017, and it is dated. I had to search the very depths of the Welsh Government website, and the archive, indeed, to discover this. The Mark Drakeford Government has been very eager, on the face of it at least, to emphasise a new approach to open Government. In that spirit, therefore, can you ensure that there is a current, up-to-date version of a senior civil servant structural chart, as well as their departments, available as a matter of urgency to Assembly Members and the people of Wales?
Welsh: Hoffwn i godi materion yn ymwneud â thryloywder peirianwaith Llywodraeth Cymru ac atebolrwydd gweinidogol priodol i'r Senedd hon. Ers peth amser bellach, mae yna amwysedd ynglŷn â pha Weinidog sy'n atebol i'r Cynulliad Cenedlaethol am y gwasanaeth sifil sy'n cefnogi gwaith Gweinidogion. Yn San Steffan, mae'r cyfrifoldeb hwnnw wedi ei roi yn glir iawn i'r Prif Weinidog, ond dydy'r rhestr o gyfrifoldebau gweinidogol diweddaraf ar gyfer Llywodraeth Cymru ddim yn rhoi llawer o oleuni ar y mater. Ac mae gen i ymateb i ddau gwestiwn ysgrifenedig a oedd wedi eu cyflwyno gan Adam Price, arweinydd Plaid Cymru, yn gofyn i'r Prif Weinidog, Mark Drakeford, egluro sut y mae peirianwaith adrannau'r gwasanaeth sifil wedi newid yn dilyn penodi ei Gabinet newydd. Ac mae o'n dweud mewn ymateb fod cyfrifoldebau staffio wedi'u dirprwyo i'r Ysgrifennydd Parhaol ac y bydd Shan Morgan yn ysgrifennu at Adam Price efo ateb. Ac mewn ateb i gwestiwn penodol arall, yn gofyn yn blwmp ac yn blaen pa Weinidog sy'n gyfrifol i'r Cynulliad hwn am y gwasanaeth sifil, yr un ydy'r ateb, sef fod materion staffio wedi'u dirprwyo i'r Ysgrifennydd Parhaol. Rŵan, dwi'n gofyn i chi, felly, am eglurder: pa Weinidog sy'n ateb i'r Cynulliad yma am y gwasanaeth sifil yn ei gyfanrwydd a'r weinyddiaeth yn ei chyfanrwydd sydd yn cefnogi Llywodraeth Cymru? Ac ar fater cysylltiedig yn ymwneud â thryloywder y gwasanaeth sifil, dwi wedi bod yn bryderus ers tro am y diffyg gallu i gael gwybodaeth am lefelau staffio a strwythurau staffio o ran safonau'r Gymraeg, achos mae hynny'n gallu effeithio'n uniongyrchol ar bolisi'r Llywodraeth yn y maes yna a chyflawni polisi'r Llywodraeth. Mi fu yn arfer gan y Llywodraeth i gyhoeddi siart strwythur o'r prif adrannau a'r prif uwch-weision sifil arweiniol. Ond dwi wedi bod yn chwilio am siart tebyg, ac mae'r un diweddaraf dwi'n medru dod o hyd iddo fo yn dyddio yn ôl i Fai 2017, ac wedi dyddio hefyd, ac roedd yn rhaid i fi fynd i grombil gwefan Llywodraeth Cymru ac archif o'r cyfnod hwnnw i ddarganfod y siart yma. Mae Llywodraeth Mark Drakeford wedi bod yn awyddus iawn, ar yr wyneb beth bynnag, i bwysleisio ymagwedd newydd at Lywodraeth agored, ac yn yr ysbryd hwnnw felly, allwch chi sicrhau bod yna fersiwn gyfredol o siart strwythur lefel uwch y Llywodraeth a'i hadrannau ar gael ar fyrder i Aelodau'r Cynulliad a phobl Cymru?
