English: You state that one of the defining features of the work of the ministerial taskforce for the south Wales Valleys has been its ongoing engagement with people living and working in the Valleys, stressing the importance of talking to and listening to people and local communities. Of course, co-production, which is in Welsh legislation, goes further, very much in terms of the sustainability duty and the Well-being of Future Generations (Wales) Act 2015, and that involves designing and delivering services together, sharing power and working in equal partnership. So, does this go beyond talking to and listening to, and, if so, how are you ensuring that services are being designed and delivered on a parity of power basis with local people, local communities and local organisations? Of course, west Wales and the Valleys, which, unfortunately, has continued to produce the lowest value of goods and services per head of all UK regions or areas, includes four north Wales counties, and this programme only addresses those in the south Wales Valleys part of that. Why is that? Or is that because you believe, possibly correctly, that the initiatives in north Wales behind the growth deal, the growth vision, the growth bid, are ticking the boxes up there? And, if you do believe that, and that's the reason why the four north Wales counties have been excluded, what consideration have you given to the way the six north Wales counties, the business sector and academia have come together and, with a voice of unity, brought forward their proposals for that region and closing that prosperity gap there? The Welsh Government's 'Our Valleys, Our Future' progress report 2018, I have to say, is a bit of eclectic mix of cobbled together Welsh Government programmes and policies. As it rightly says: 'more good jobs and opportunities to get skills are needed' and that you're committed to exploring options to target investment and create new strategic hubs areas, which you refer to in your statement as: 'areas where public money is focused to provide opportunities for the private sector to invest and create new jobs.' So, how has the private sector been incorporated within that, not just as someone to talk to and listen to, but in the context, as in north Wales, where those solutions are being co-produced for delivery together? You refer in this report to the Welsh Government's knowledge and analytical services department identifying areas across south Wales Valleys where economic potential was greatest. Again, similarly, how have they worked with the business and third sectors to reach their conclusions, or have they simply done this talking to and listening to people? You refer to the Welsh Government's employability plan, published in March this year. Of course, we understand it's not due to roll out until next year, although a range of employment programmes are now operating in Wales, such as the programmes being delivered through Remploy and the Department for Work and Pensions. We know from previous responses in this Chamber from Welsh Government members that those programmes have got Welsh Government input. So, can you tell us if and how, therefore, those UK schemes operating in Wales with Welsh Government input have been or will be incorporated into the work in 'Our Valleys, Our Future'? You refer, in the report, to Ferndale developing a hub with a range of community-based services, and I love the sound of that - that sounds brilliant. But will you give consideration to the work of Dr Karen Sankey in Wrexham, whose work has been identified, I know, by the Welsh Government's health department, who's developed a community hub model to bring together and address the physical, psychological and social needs of people in that community, including those on the streets, as a best practice model? You refer to account executives for secondary schools and working with Careers Wales. Again, how will that address the concern that was raised when Careers Wales was no longer able to facilitate pupils in schools going into the workplaces for practical work experience? Are we purely talking about within school, and, if so, how will that integrate with the businesses themselves? Two very, very short questions remaining, and then I'm finished. South Wales metro - you refer to a long-term programme. How long term, really, are you thinking about with this, in dialogue with your colleagues? Because we keep hearing these things bandied around, and they do sound very positive, and, although I don't live in south Wales, I wish the people there every good wish, but when do you anticipate this being transport on the ground? Finally, you refer in the report to the 20,000 affordable housing targets - of course, that includes home purchase, it includes intermediate rent, and provision by a range of providers. So, what collective housing needs assessment is at the core of this, not just to identify the numbers of units needed by people in the population, but the type and range of properties, whether that's social rent, intermediate rent, low-cost purchase or full market purchase or otherwise? Thank you.
Welsh: Rydych chi'n dweud mai un o nodweddion diffiniol gwaith y tasglu gweinidogol ar gyfer Cymoedd y de fu ei ymgysylltiad parhaus gyda phobl sy'n byw ac yn gweithio yn y Cymoedd, gan bwysleisio pwysigrwydd siarad gyda a gwrando ar bobl a chymunedau lleol. Wrth gwrs, mae cyd-gynhyrchu, sydd mewn deddfwriaeth yng Nghymru, yn mynd ymhellach, i raddau helaeth iawn o ran y ddyletswydd gynaliadwyedd a Deddf Llesiant Cenedlaethau'r Dyfodol (Cymru) 2015, ac mae hynny'n cynnwys cyd-ddylunio a chyd-ddarparu gwasanaethau, rhannu grym a gweithio mewn partneriaeth gyfartal. Felly, a yw hyn yn mynd y tu hwnt i siarad a gwrando, ac, os felly, sut ydych chi'n sicrhau bod gwasanaethau'n cael eu cynllunio a'u darparu yn seiliedig ar gydraddoldeb grym gyda phobl leol, cymunedau lleol a sefydliadau lleol? Wrth gwrs, mae gorllewin Cymru a'r Cymoedd, sydd, yn anffodus, wedi parhau i gynhyrchu'r gwerth isaf o ran nwyddau a gwasanaethau y pen o holl ranbarthau neu ardaloedd y DU, yn cynnwys pedair sir yn y gogledd, ac mae'r rhaglen hon yn mynd i'r afael â rhai yng Nghymoedd y de yn unig. Pam hynny? Neu a yw hynny oherwydd eich bod yn credu, o bosib yn gywir, bod y mentrau yn y gogledd y mae'r fargen dwf, y weledigaeth dwf, y cynnig twf yn seiliedig arnynt, yn cyflawni hynny? Ac, os ydych chi yn credu hynny, ac mai dyna'r rheswm pam mae pedair sir y gogledd wedi'u heithrio, pa ystyriaeth a roesoch chi i'r ffordd y mae chwe sir y gogledd, y sector busnes a'r byd academaidd wedi dod at ei gilydd a, gydag un llais, wedi cyflwyno eu cynigion ar gyfer y rhanbarth hwnnw a chau'r bwlch ffyniant yn y fan yna? Mae adroddiad cynnydd 'Ein Cymoedd, Ein Dyfodol' 2018 Llywodraeth Cymru, mae'n rhaid imi ddweud, yn dipyn o gymysgedd dethol o bolisïau a rhaglenni Llywodraeth Cymru wedi eu taflu ynghyd. Fel y mae'n dweud yn gwbl briodol: mae angen mwy o swyddi da a chyfleoedd i gael sgiliau, a'ch bod wedi ymrwymo i archwilio'r dewisiadau i dargedu buddsoddiad a chreu ardaloedd canolbwynt strategol newydd, yr ydych chi'n cyfeirio atyn nhw yn eich datganiad fel ardaloedd lle mae arian cyhoeddus yn canolbwyntio ar ddarparu cyfleoedd i'r sector preifat fuddsoddi a chreu swyddi newydd. Felly, sut mae'r sector preifat wedi'i gynnwys o fewn hynny, nid yn unig fel rhywun i siarad ag ef a gwrando arno, ond yng nghyd-destun, fel yn y gogledd, lle cydweithir ar yr atebion hynny ar gyfer darparu rhywbeth ar y cyd? Rydych chi'n cyfeirio yn yr adroddiad hwn at adran wybodaeth a gwasanaethau dadansoddol Llywodraeth Cymru gan nodi ardaloedd ledled Cymoedd y de lle'r oedd y mwyaf o botensial economaidd. Unwaith eto, yn yr un modd, sut maen nhw wedi gweithio gyda'r sector busnes a'r trydydd sector i lunio'u casgliadau, neu a ydyn nhw wedi gwneud hyn drwy ddim ond siarad a gwrando ar bobl? Rydych chi'n cyfeirio at gynllun cyflogadwyedd Llywodraeth Cymru, a gyhoeddwyd ym mis Mawrth eleni. Wrth gwrs, rydym ni'n deall nad oes disgwyl iddo gael ei gyflwyno tan y flwyddyn nesaf, er bod amrywiaeth o raglenni cyflogaeth bellach ar waith yng Nghymru, megis y rhaglenni a gyflwynir drwy'r Adran Gwaith a Phensiynau a Remploy. Rydym ni'n gwybod o ymatebion blaenorol yn y Siambr hon gan Aelodau Llywodraeth Cymru bod Llywodraeth Cymru wedi cael mewnbwn i'r rhaglenni hynny. Felly, a wnewch chi ddweud wrthym ni os a sut, felly, mae'r cynlluniau Prydeinig hynny sy'n gweithredu yng Nghymru gyda mewnbwn Llywodraeth Cymru wedi cael neu sut fyddan nhw'n cael eu hymgorffori i'r gwaith yn 'Ein Cymoedd, Ein Dyfodol'? Rydych chi'n cyfeirio, yn yr adroddiad, at Glynrhedynog yn datblygu canolfan ag amrywiaeth o wasanaethau cymunedol, ac rwyf wrth fy modd yn clywed hynny - mae hynny'n swnio'n wych. Ond a wnewch chi roi ystyriaeth i waith Dr Karen Sankey yn Wrecsam, y mae adran iechyd Llywodraeth Cymru, rwy'n gwybod, wedi cyfeirio at ei gwaith, sydd wedi datblygu model canolfan gymunedol i ddwyn ynghyd a mynd i'r afael ag anghenion corfforol, seicolegol a chymdeithasol y bobl yn y gymuned honno, gan gynnwys y rhai ar y strydoedd, fel model arfer gorau? Rydych chi'n cyfeirio at weithredwyr cyfrif ar gyfer ysgolion uwchradd ac at weithio gyda Gyrfa Cymru. Unwaith eto, sut fydd hynny'n ymdrin â'r pryder y soniwyd amdano pan nad oedd Gyrfa Cymru yn gallu hwyluso disgyblion mewn ysgolion i ymweld â gweithleoedd er mwyn cael profiad gwaith ymarferol mwyach? A ydym ni'n sôn am ddim ond o fewn ysgolion, ac, os felly, sut y bydd hynny'n integreiddio gyda'r busnesau eu hunain? Dau gwestiwn byr iawn, iawn yn weddill, ac yna byddaf wedi gorffen. Metro de Cymru - rydych chi'n cyfeirio at raglen hirdymor. Pa mor hirdymor, mewn gwirionedd, ydych chi'n ei olygu yn hyn o beth, mewn trafodaethau gyda'ch cyd-Aelodau? Oherwydd rydym ni wedi clywed sôn am y pethau hyn, ac maen nhw'n swnio'n gadarnhaol iawn, ac, er nad wyf i'n byw yn y de, rwy'n dymuno'r gorau i'r bobl sy'n byw yno, ond pryd ydych chi'n rhagweld y caiff hyn ei weithredu mewn gwirionedd? Yn olaf, rydych chi'n cyfeirio yn yr adroddiad at y targedau o 20,000 o dai fforddiadwy - wrth gwrs, mae hynny'n cynnwys prynu cartref, mae'n cynnwys rhent canolradd, a darpariaeth gan ystod o ddarparwyr. Felly, pa asesiad ar y cyd o anghenion tai sy'n greiddiol i hyn, nid yn unig o ran canfod nifer yr unedau sydd eu hangen ar bobl yn y boblogaeth, ond y math a'r amrywiaeth o eiddo, boed hwnnw'n rhent cymdeithasol, rhent canolraddol, prynu'n rhad, am bris llawn y farchnad neu fel arall? Diolch.
