English: Minister, thank you for your statement this afternoon. I am someone who does believe that there should be a deal when we leave the European Union. I think that is a sensible course of action. Whenever you split from any organisation or any individual, or in a company disagreement, you're better doing it on an amicable basis, on agreed terms, than a violent shutdown. And I do hope that, in the time remaining, a deal does mature out of the Westminster political bubble, where many people seem to be in a real dogfight at the moment. But, let's not forget that there is a deal on the table, and there are discussions around creating the atmosphere for a deal to come forward. The Labour Party, regrettably, have chosen not to enter into those discussions and, in particular, not to support the Prime Minister in her ability to secure a deal. So, I'd be grateful to understand: does the Cabinet Secretary support the principle of what the Prime Minister is seeking to achieve by creating the right conditions for a deal to emerge? Because that is vitally important, and the National Farmers Union and the Farmers Union of Wales and other farming organisations do support the Prime Minister's deal that was on the table, which I accept was rejected by all parties last week in the House of Commons. But it is a fact that, obviously, the farming unions in particular have given their support to that particular deal. In your statement this afternoon, First Minister, you do touch on the fact that the Government here, the Welsh Government, have been working on EU preparedness since the referendum, but I find that a contradictory statement, given that the First Minister himself has indicated - or the previous First Minister, I should say - at several junctures when he was questioned on this in this Chamber that there had been no preparations put in place by the Welsh Government for a 'no deal' scenario. So, I would be interested to know what preparations the Government have been doing, as your statement indicates, over the last two years for the scenario that appears on our horizon at the moment. I'd also like to understand how much of the £30 million that has come into the Welsh Government from the Chancellor of the Exchequer for 'no deal' preparations her department in particular has been able to secure from the finance Minister, because that's not an insignificant sum of money, and hopefully that has allowed her to obviously make certain provisions within the planning capacity of her department. DEFRA itself has had £410 million, and, in the statement, the Cabinet Minister does highlight the close working relationship with DEFRA on many issues. So, again, I'd be pleased to understand how, with that £410 million that has been made available to DEFRA for 'no deal' planning - what aspects of work are work that has been undertaken by Welsh Government and the UK Government to mitigate some of the circumstances. It is vitally important that the work of the department is allowed to go on, and at the FUW farmhouse breakfast this morning and at the NFU council yesterday, at last night's dinner, the Cabinet Minister did indicate that 'Brexit and our land' - the response to that consultation - has now slipped back to the summer. Again, I would be grateful to understand what impact, obviously, various planning initiatives within the department are having on the day-to-day work of the department, because, obviously, many farmers, whilst knowing that the money is secure until 2022, because that's the commitment the UK Government have given, want to be able to engage in a process of formulating the next series of schemes and initiatives that will be used to obviously support the rural economy. But, as I said, from your statement last night and this morning, you clearly indicated that the 'Brexit and our land' consultation response has slipped now to the summer. Also something that has been highlighted by stakeholders is the engagement by the Welsh Government around 'no deal' planning. I'd be grateful to understand how you are communicating with all sectors in your portfolio - the environmental sector, the energy sector and the agricultural sector - so that they understand fully what is being done by the department and the wider role that Welsh Government is playing in these preparations. Also, if we do end up with a 'no deal' scenario, there will be opportunities, obviously, for the UK livestock sector to make up some of the shortfalls from imports into the country. If we look at beef, for example, a huge amount of Irish beef comes into the market. What preparations are you making to make sure that Welsh livestock producers are in a good place to work with processors to make up that shortfall? I draw your attention to the fact that £460 million-worth of beef is imported into the United Kingdom, predominantly Irish beef; we only export £140 million out of the UK. So, there is a huge opportunity there to bridge that shortfall if it was to come about. I reiterate the point that I made in my opening remarks - that I believe it is vitally important that we do have a deal, and it makes sense for us to progress to a situation where we have a transition period so that we do move to an area where we can make sensible provision for the changes that we are going to unlock by our leaving of the European Union. I very much hope that over the next 60-odd days that are available to us, we do secure those conditions for a deal to come forward. But I would be grateful for answers to the questions that I've put to the Minister, and in particular, the way the Minister will be communicating with stakeholders over the weeks and months ahead so that people can fully understand the department's actions in 'no deal' preparations.
Welsh: Gweinidog, diolch am eich datganiad y prynhawn yma. Rwyf i'n rhywun sy'n credu y dylai fod cytundeb pan fyddwn ni'n gadael yr Undeb Ewropeaidd. Rwy'n meddwl bod hwnnw'n gam synhwyrol i'w gymryd. Pryd bynnag y byddwch chi'n gwahanu oddi wrth unrhyw sefydliad neu unrhyw unigolyn, neu mewn anghydfod cwmni, mae'n well i chi wneud hynny ar sail gyfeillgar, ar delerau y cytunwyd arnynt, nag mewn terfyniad arteithiol. Ac rwy'n gobeithio, yn yr amser sy'n weddill, y bydd cytundeb yn datblygu o swigen wleidyddol San Steffan, lle mae'n ymddangos bod llawer o bobl mewn ysgarmes go iawn ar hyn o bryd. Ond, gadewch i ni gofio bod cytundeb ar y bwrdd, a bod trafodaethau ynghylch creu'r awyrgylch lle gellid dod i gytundeb. Yn anffodus, mae'r Blaid Lafur wedi dewis peidio â chymryd rhan yn y trafodaethau hynny ac, yn benodol, peidio â chefnogi Prif Weinidog y DU yn ei gallu i sicrhau cytundeb. Felly, byddwn yn ddiolchgar o gael deall: a yw Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet yn cefnogi egwyddor yr hyn y mae Prif Weinidog y DU yn ceisio ei gyflawni trwy greu'r amodau cywir ar gyfer dod i gytundeb? Oherwydd mae hynny'n hanfodol bwysig, ac mae Undeb Cenedlaethol yr Amaethwyr ac Undeb Amaethwyr Cymru a sefydliadau ffermio eraill yn cefnogi cytundeb Prif Weinidog y DU a oedd ar y bwrdd, yr wyf i'n derbyn ei fod wedi cael ei wrthod gan bob plaid yr wythnos diwethaf yn Nhŷ'r Cyffredin. Ond mae'n ffaith, yn amlwg, bod yr undebau ffermio yn arbennig wedi rhoi eu cefnogaeth i'r cytundeb penodol hwnnw. Yn eich datganiad y prynhawn yma, Prif Weinidog, rydych chi'n sôn am y ffaith bod y Llywodraeth yma, Llywodraeth Cymru, wedi bod yn gweithio ar barodrwydd yr UE ers y refferendwm, ond rwy'n credu bod hwnnw'n ddatganiad anghyson, o gofio bod y Prif Weinidog ei hun wedi dweud - neu'r Prif Weinidog blaenorol, dylwn ddweud - ar sawl adeg pan gafodd ei holi am hyn yn y Siambr na wnaed unrhyw baratoadau gan Lywodraeth Cymru ar gyfer senario 'dim cytundeb'. Felly, byddai gen i ddiddordeb mewn gwybod pa baratoadau y mae'r Llywodraeth wedi bod yn eu gwneud, fel y mae eich datganiad yn ei nodi, dros y ddwy flynedd diwethaf ar gyfer y senario sy'n ymddangos ar y gorwel ar hyn o bryd. Hoffwn ddeall hefyd faint o'r £30 miliwn sydd wedi dod i Lywodraeth Cymru gan Ganghellor y Trysorlys ar gyfer paratoadau 'dim cytundeb' y mae ei hadran hi yn arbennig wedi gallu ei sicrhau gan y Gweinidog cyllid, oherwydd mae hwnnw'n swm sylweddol o arian, ac rwy'n gobeithio bod hynny wedi caniatáu iddi wneud darpariaethau penodol, yn amlwg, yn unol â chapasiti cynllunio ei hadran. Mae DEFRA ei hun wedi cael £410 miliwn, ac, yn y datganiad, mae'r Gweinidog Cabinet yn tynnu sylw at y berthynas waith agos gyda DEFRA ar lawer o faterion. Felly, unwaith eto, byddwn yn falch o ddeall, gyda'r £410 miliwn hwnnw a wnaed ar gael erbyn hyn i DEFRA i gynllunio ar gyfer Brexit heb gytundeb, ba agweddau ar y gwaith sy'n waith a wnaed gan Lywodraeth Cymru a Llywodraeth y DU i liniaru rhai o'r amgylchiadau. Mae'n hollbwysig y caniateir i waith yr adran barhau, ac ym mrecwast ffermdy Undeb Amaethwyr Cymru y bore yma ac yng nghyngor yr NFU ddoe, yn y cinio neithiwr, dywedodd y Gweinidog Cabinet bod 'Brexit a'n tir' - yr ymateb i'r ymgynghoriad hwnnw - wedi llithro'n ôl i'r haf erbyn hyn. Unwaith eto, byddwn yn ddiolchgar deall pa effaith, yn amlwg, y mae gwahanol fentrau cynllunio yn yr adran yn ei chael ar waith yr adran o ddydd i ddydd, oherwydd, yn amlwg, mae llawer o ffermwyr, er eu bod yn gwybod bod yr arian yn ddiogel tan 2022, oherwydd dyna'r ymrwymiad y mae Llywodraeth y DU wedi ei wneud, eisiau gallu cymryd rhan yn y broses o lunio'r gyfres nesaf o gynlluniau a mentrau a fydd yn cael eu defnyddio i gefnogi'r economi wledig, yn amlwg. Ond, fel y dywedais, o'ch datganiad neithiwr a'r bore yma, nodwyd yn eglur gennych fod yr ymateb i'r ymgynghoriad 'Brexit a'n tir' wedi llithro i'r haf erbyn hyn. Rhywbeth arall a nodwyd gan randdeiliaid yw'r ymgysylltiad gan Lywodraeth Cymru ynghylch cynllunio ar gyfer 'dim cytundeb'. Byddwn yn ddiolchgar o gael deall sut rydych chi'n cyfathrebu gyda'r holl sectorau yn eich portffolio - y sector amgylcheddol, y sector ynni a'r sector amaethyddol - fel eu bod nhw'n deall yn llawn beth sy'n cael ei wneud gan yr adran a'r swyddogaeth ehangach y mae Llywodraeth Cymru yn ei chyflawni yn y paratoadau hyn. Hefyd, os byddwn ni mewn senario 'dim cytundeb' yn y pen draw, bydd cyfleoedd, yn amlwg, i sector da byw y DU wneud iawn am rai o'r diffygion o fewnforion i mewn i'r wlad. Os edrychwn ni ar gig eidion, er enghraifft, mae llawer iawn o gig eidion Iwerddon yn dod i mewn i'r farchnad. Pa baratoadau ydych chi'n eu gwneud i wneud yn siŵr bod cynhyrchwyr da byw Cymru mewn sefyllfa dda i weithio gyda phroseswyr i wneud iawn am y diffyg hwnnw? Tynnaf eich sylw at y ffaith bod gwerth £460 miliwn o gig eidion yn cael ei fewnforio i'r Deyrnas Unedig, cig eidion Iwerddon yn bennaf; dim ond £140 miliwn yr ydym ni'n ei allforio allan o'r DU. Felly, ceir cyfle enfawr yno i bontio'r diffyg hwnnw pe bai'n digwydd. Ailadroddaf y pwynt a wnes yn fy sylwadau agoriadol - rwy'n credu ei bod hi'n hanfodol bwysig ein bod ni'n cael cytundeb, ac mae'n gwneud synnwyr i ni symud i sefyllfa lle mae gennym ni gyfnod pontio fel ein bod ni'n symud i sefyllfa lle gallwn ni wneud darpariaeth synhwyrol ar gyfer y newidiadau yr ydym ni'n mynd i'w datgloi drwy adael yr Undeb Ewropeaidd. Rwy'n gobeithio'n fawr, dros y 60 a mwy o ddiwrnodau nesaf sydd ar gael i ni, y byddwn ni'n sicrhau'r amodau hynny fel y gallwn ddod i gytundeb. Ond byddwn yn ddiolchgar am atebion i'r cwestiynau yr wyf i wedi eu gofyn i'r Gweinidog, ac yn benodol, y ffordd y bydd y Gweinidog yn cyfathrebu â rhanddeiliaid dros yr wythnosau a'r misoedd i ddod fel y gall pobl ddeall yn llawn camau gweithredu'r adran o ran paratoadau ar gyfer Brexit heb gytundeb.
