English: Can I thank the Minister for her statement? Housing is a key priority area in the Welsh Government's 'Prosperity for All' national strategy. In the past, we have criticised Ministers of this Welsh Government of carrying on regardless rather than listening to those who deliver vital services. It is therefore appropriate to acknowledge the efforts of the Minister, who has clearly listened to, and acted upon, the advice of, amongst others, Cymorth Cymru, and is engaging with them to deliver what we hope will be a much-improved service for those who, unfortunately, for whatever reason, find themselves without a home, or perhaps more importantly, require assistance in retaining their home, thus avoiding homelessness in the first place. It is accepted that without the support of networks, some are clearly unable to cope with the pressures of modern life. Although initially meeting opposition from the stakeholders, the establishment of a regime where a number of available grants are reduced to just, I believe, two, does appear to have been a successful one. The collaboration between the Government and the umbrella organisation, Cymorth Cymru, whilst not totally satisfying Cymorth Cymru and other service providers, is undoubtedly a significant improvement on the previous situation. The setting up of two housing grant systems, a housing grant and - [ Inaudible.] - housing grant, seems to be the result of this collaboration. It takes away the uncertainty on landlords' ability to borrow funds in order to develop supported accommodation housing for vulnerable people. The primary aim of any administration should be to enable access to housing and also to prevent vulnerable people from losing their homes, but also to give help and support to those who may still lose their homes and help in developing the skills and confidence to live their lives independently. We acknowledge that local authorities are in the front line and will consult with all stakeholders to inform them of their local strategy, working collaboratively across their regions with key partners. However, the sting in the tail, Minister, is that the settlement for the housing grant shows that it remains static at £126.8 million, which is, in effect, a real-terms cut. As mentioned by both David Melding and Delyth Jewell, Cymorth Cymru have stated that this settlement in 2020 will not be enough to achieve the shared ambitions of the Welsh Government, landlords and support providers. Minister, in respect of the budget allocation, do you share their concerns?
Welsh: A gaf i ddiolch i'r Gweinidog am ei datganiad? Mae tai yn faes blaenoriaeth allweddol yn strategaeth genedlaethol Llywodraeth Cymru, 'Ffyniant i Bawb'. Yn y gorffennol, rydym ni wedi beirniadu Gweinidogion y Llywodraeth hon yng Nghymru am barhau doed a ddelo yn hytrach na gwrando ar y rhai sy'n darparu gwasanaethau hanfodol. Felly, mae'n briodol cydnabod ymdrechion y Gweinidog, sy'n amlwg wedi gwrando ar gyngor Cymorth Cymru, ymhlith eraill, ac wedi gweithredu ar y cyngor hwnnw, ac sy'n gweithio gyda nhw i gyflawni'r hyn a fydd, gobeithio, yn wasanaeth gwell o lawer i'r rhai sydd, yn anffodus, am ba bynnag reswm, yn cael eu hunain heb gartref, neu efallai'n bwysicach, sydd angen cymorth i gadw eu cartref, gan osgoi digartrefedd yn y lle cyntaf. Derbynnir, heb gymorth rhwydweithiau, ei bod hi'n amlwg na all rhai pobl ymdopi â phwysau bywyd modern. Er y cafwyd gwrthwynebiad ar y dechrau gan randdeiliaid, erbyn hyn fe ymddengys y bu hi'n llwyddiannus sefydlu cyfundrefn lle caiff nifer y grantiau sydd ar gael eu lleihau i ddim ond dau rwy'n credu. Mae'r cydweithio rhwng y Llywodraeth a'r sefydliad ambarél, Cymorth Cymru, er nad yw'n llwyr fodloni Cymorth Cymru a darparwyr gwasanaethau eraill, yn sicr yn welliant sylweddol ar y sefyllfa flaenorol. Sefydlu dwy system grantiau tai, grant tai ac - [ Anghlywadwy.] - grant tai, yn ôl pob golwg, yw canlyniad y cydweithio hwn. Mae'n dileu'r ansicrwydd ynghylch gallu landlordiaid i fenthyca arian er mwyn datblygu llety â chymorth ar gyfer pobl sy'n agored i niwed. Dylai fod yn brif nod gan unrhyw weinyddiaeth i sicrhau y gall pobl gael cartref ac i atal pobl agored i niwed rhag colli eu cartrefi, ond hefyd i roi cymorth a chefnogaeth i'r rhai a allai golli eu cartrefi o hyd a helpu i ddatblygu'r sgiliau a'r hyder i fyw eu bywydau'n annibynnol. Rydym yn cydnabod bod awdurdodau lleol yn y rheng flaen ac yn ymgynghori â'r holl randdeiliaid i'w hysbysu ynghylch eu strategaeth leol, gan gydweithio ar draws eu rhanbarthau gyda phartneriaid allweddol. Fodd bynnag, y tro yn y gynffon, Gweinidog, yw bod y setliad ar gyfer y grant tai yn dangos ei fod yn aros yn sefydlog ar £126.8 miliwn, sydd, i bob pwrpas, yn lleihad mewn termau real. Fel y crybwyllwyd gan David Melding a Delyth Jewell, mae Cymorth Cymru wedi datgan na fydd y setliad hwn yn 2020 yn ddigon i gyflawni uchelgeisiau ar y cyd Llywodraeth Cymru, landlordiaid a darparwyr cymorth. Gweinidog, o ran dyraniad y gyllideb, ydych chi'n rhannu eu pryderon?
