English: You'll need to come to an end now, and I'll come back to you in a couple of minutes after the Minister's responded to the first set of questions.
Welsh: Bydd angen i chi ddod i ben yn awr, ac fe ddychwelaf atoch ymhen munud neu ddau ar ôl i'r Gweinidog ymateb i'r gyfres gyntaf o gwestiynau.
English: I do apologise. I'll end it there and I'll come back.
Welsh: Rwy'n ymddiheuro. Fe roddaf y gorau iddi yn y fan honno a dod yn ôl.
English: Thank you, Llywydd, and I'll be brief. I must admit to having forgotten that I'd got a second lot of questions. I do apologise. Can I just ask the Minister - ? I agree with everything that she said about the fact that they've adapted brilliantly. But, I'm told that we've had a big upswing in people wanting to learn Welsh online, which is obviously really encouraging. I know that she's had to reprofile her budget, but is the Minister confident that there is sufficient resource available for those coming forward wishing to learn Welsh at this difficult time to be able to do so? With regard to the Black Lives Matter campaign, will she consider talking to the education Minister about how we might better reflect the history of black and ethnic minority people in Wales in our curriculum as we move forward? I very much take her point about young people studying in Thomas Picton school probably don't know who he is. Then, in that context also, whether she will consider in the medium term - this is not something immediate - looking at those historic monuments, those public buildings, and the people that they are named after, to see whether it's time for us to undertake a similar review to the one that is being done in London, to ensure that we are not memorialising people whose histories we would not wish to reflect.
Welsh: Diolch, Lywydd, ac fe fyddaf yn gryno. Rhaid cyfaddef fy mod wedi anghofio bod gennyf ail swp o gwestiynau. Rwy'n ymddiheuro. A gaf fi ofyn i'r Gweinidog - ? Rwy'n cytuno â phopeth a ddywedodd am y ffaith eu bod wedi addasu'n wych. Ond dywedir wrthyf ein bod wedi cael cynnydd mawr yn nifer y bobl sydd eisiau dysgu Cymraeg ar-lein, rhywbeth sy'n amlwg yn galonogol iawn. Gwn ei bod wedi gorfod ailbroffilio ei chyllideb, ond a yw'r Gweinidog yn hyderus fod digon o adnoddau ar gael i'r rhai sy'n dymuno dysgu Cymraeg ar yr adeg anodd hon i allu gwneud hynny? O ran ymgyrch Black Lives Matter, a wnaiff ystyried siarad â'r Gweinidog addysg ynglŷn â sut y gallem adlewyrchu hanes pobl dduon a lleiafrifoedd ethnig yn well yng Nghymru yn ein cwricwlwm wrth inni symud ymlaen? Rwy'n derbyn ei phwynt ynglŷn â'r modd nad yw hi'n debygol fod pobl ifanc sy'n astudio yn ysgol Thomas Picton yn gwybod pwy ydyw. Yn y cyd-destun hwnnw hefyd felly, a wnaiff hi ystyried edrych yn y tymor canolig - nid yw hyn yn rhywbeth a all ddigwydd ar unwaith - ar yr henebion hanesyddol hynny, yr adeiladau cyhoeddus hynny, a'r bobl y maent wedi eu henwi ar eu holau, i weld a yw'n bryd inni gynnal adolygiad tebyg i'r un sy'n cael ei wneud yn Llundain, i sicrhau nad ydym yn coffáu pobl nad ydym am adlewyrchu eu hanes.
English: Thank you very much. First of all, thank you to the Conservative Party for confirming their support for Black Lives Matter, as I would expect. So, it's really good that we have very much a consensus in terms of our approach here in Wales. In relation to the curriculum, there are core aspects of the areas of learning and experience within the new curriculum that very much will underline the importance of looking at this as an issue within the curriculum. But, again, it will be up to those people locally to determine how they develop that and approach that. On the issue of tourism, I can assure you that we are doing a lot of extremely detailed work in terms of what may be able to open during the amber phase. We're looking at what constitutes shared accommodation or shared facilities, and we are certainly looking at the issue of caravan parks and whether they would be able to open if they were to close those shared facilities. So, that is certainly something that we are already undertaking. Can I just underline that, of course, we're all anxious to see things get back to normal in some of our key tourism areas in particular, but, just to underline that, whatever we do, we have to bring the community with us? I think there's still a lot of nervousness in some parts and we need to develop that confidence. I think these guidelines that we've been setting out, and that we have been developing, I hope, will give the assurance to those communities that it will be safe to open when that R rate is in a situation where we are confident that it will be safe to do so.
Welsh: Diolch yn fawr iawn. Yn gyntaf oll, diolch i'r Blaid Geidwadol am gadarnhau eu cefnogaeth i Black Lives Matter, fel y byddwn yn ei ddisgwyl. Felly, mae'n dda iawn fod gennym gonsensws pendant o ran ein hymagwedd yma yng Nghymru. Mewn perthynas â'r cwricwlwm, ceir agweddau craidd ar y meysydd dysgu a phrofiad o fewn y cwricwlwm newydd a fydd yn tanlinellu pwysigrwydd edrych ar hyn fel mater sy'n codi o fewn y cwricwlwm. Ond unwaith eto, mater i'r bobl hynny'n lleol fydd penderfynu sut y byddant yn datblygu hynny ac yn mynd ati i'w wneud. Ar fater twristiaeth, gallaf eich sicrhau ein bod yn gwneud llawer o waith manwl iawn ar beth fydd yn gallu agor yn ystod y cyfnod oren. Rydym yn edrych ar yr hyn y mae llety a rennir neu gyfleusterau a rennir yn ei olygu, ac rydym yn sicr yn edrych ar feysydd carafannau ac a fyddent yn gallu agor pe baent yn cau cyfleusterau a rennir. Felly, mae hynny'n sicr yn rhywbeth rydym eisoes yn ei wneud. Hoffwn danlinellu ein bod ni i gyd, wrth gwrs, yn awyddus i weld pethau'n mynd yn ôl i'r arfer yn rhai o'n hardaloedd twristiaeth allweddol yn arbennig, ond er mwyn tanlinellu hynny, beth bynnag a wnawn, mae'n rhaid inni ddod â'r gymuned gyda ni. Rwy'n credu bod llawer o nerfusrwydd yn dal i fodoli mewn rhai mannau ac mae angen inni ddatblygu hyder pobl. Rwy'n gobeithio y bydd y canllawiau hyn y buom yn eu gosod, ac y buom yn eu datblygu yn rhoi sicrwydd i'r cymunedau y bydd yn ddiogel i agor pan fydd y gyfradd R mewn man lle rydym yn hyderus y bydd yn ddiogel i wneud hynny.
English: Minister, thank you for your statement today. I have some questions relating to the Welsh language element of your portfolio. Firstly, with regard to Welsh language education, I'm just wondering what discussions you might have had with the Minister for Education around the reopening of more provision for pupils who attend Welsh-medium schools, and also, the efforts to tackle digital exclusion there. I think, obviously there are issues across the board, but particularly for pupils who come from English-speaking families, there is that extra barrier. So I'd be keen to know what work you've done to try to overcome that. My second and final question is around the announcement from the Coleg Cymraeg that it's extending its incentive scholarship scheme worth £1,500 over three years to include every student starting university in September 2020 who chooses to study at least 40 credits through the medium of Welsh. This is a really great initiative. What work is being done both with schools, with colleges and with our higher education institutions to raise awareness of this programme?
Welsh: Weinidog, diolch am eich datganiad heddiw. Mae gennyf rai cwestiynau sy'n ymwneud ag elfen iaith Gymraeg eich portffolio. Yn gyntaf, ar addysg Gymraeg, tybed pa drafodaethau a gawsoch gyda'r Gweinidog addysg ynghylch ailagor mwy o ddarpariaeth i ddisgyblion sy'n mynychu ysgolion cyfrwng Cymraeg, a hefyd yr ymdrechion i fynd i'r afael ag allgáu digidol yno. Mae'n amlwg, rwy'n credu, fod yna broblemau cyffredinol, ond yn enwedig i ddisgyblion sy'n dod o deuluoedd Saesneg eu hiaith, ceir y rhwystr ychwanegol hwnnw. Felly byddwn yn awyddus i wybod pa waith a wnaethoch i geisio goresgyn hynny. Mae fy ail gwestiwn, a'r olaf, yn ymwneud â'r cyhoeddiad gan y Coleg Cymraeg ei fod yn ymestyn ei gynllun ysgoloriaethau cymhelliant gwerth £1,500 dros dair blynedd i gynnwys pob myfyriwr sy'n dechrau yn y brifysgol ym mis Medi 2020 ac sy'n dewis astudio o leiaf 40 o gredydau drwy gyfrwng y Gymraeg. Mae hon yn fenter wirioneddol wych. Pa waith sy'n cael ei wneud gydag ysgolion, gyda cholegau a chyda ein sefydliadau addysg uwch i godi ymwybyddiaeth o'r rhaglen hon?
English: Thank you, Llywydd. Today, I jointly signed a letter to the First Minister with the Anglesey Tourism Association and the council outlining our concerns about the tourism sector. There are many businesses on their knees now, and quite simply we're asking for greater clarity from the Government in terms of its plans for the sector over the next few weeks and months. This is how I see it: you can either decide that you need to keep the restrictions tight and extend the financial support to the sector, or your scientific advice will suggest that it is possible to allow some tourism, and then we can start to discuss a timetable for reducing that financial support, although long-term support will be required because of how much of the season has been lost already. But what you can't do is retain restrictions and not provide support. Would the Minister agree with that, and will she realise now that the sector and businesses already feel that it's the eleventh hour for them? Does she feel that we must have greater clarity from the Government as to what the plan is? Because businesses and prospective tourists need that now.
Welsh: Diolch, Llywydd. Heddiw, dwi wedi cyd-arwyddo llythyr i'r Prif Weinidog efo Cymdeithas Twristiaeth Ynys Môn a Chyngor Sir Ynys Môn yn amlinellu ein pryderon ni o ran y sector twristiaeth. Mae yna lawer iawn o fusnesau ar eu gliniau rŵan, ac rydyn ni'n gofyn, yn syml iawn, am lawer gwell eglurder gan y Llywodraeth ynglŷn â'i chynlluniau i'r sector dros yr wythnosau a misoedd nesaf. Y ffordd yma dwi wedi'i gweld hi: mi allwch chi un ai penderfynu bod angen cadw cyfyngiadau yn dynn, ac os felly, ymestyn cefnogaeth ariannol i'r sector, neu mi fydd eich cyngor gwyddonol chi yn awgrymu bod modd caniatáu rhywfaint o dwristiaeth, ac felly mi allwn ni ddechrau trafod amserlen ar gyfer lleihau'r gefnogaeth ariannol. Er, bydd dal angen cefnogaeth hirdymor oherwydd faint o'r tymor sydd wedi cael ei golli yn barod. Ond beth fedrwch chi ddim ei wneud ydy cadw'r cyfyngiadau'n dynn a pheidio cynnig cefnogaeth. Ydy'r Gweinidog yn cytuno efo hynny, ac a wnaiff hi sylweddoli bod yn rhaid i'r sector a'r busnesau sy'n barod yn teimlo bod yr unfed awr ar ddeg arnyn nhw - ydy hi'n teimlo bod yn rhaid cael mwy o eglurder gan y Llywodraeth? Beth ydy'r cynllun? Achos mae busnesau a'r darpar dwristiaid, wedi'r cyfan, angen hynny, rŵan.
English: Thank you very much, Rhun. We have made it clear that we will be giving those working in the sector three weeks' notice so that they do have an opportunity to prepare. Of course, we'll have to see whether the R rate will be in a position next week where we can provide them with more clarity on the possibilities for reopening in the future. We are highly aware, of course, that the tapering of furlough is to commence in August, and if people can't access any kind of salary, wage or profit coming in, then it'll be impossible for them to pay their staff. We are aware of that date where a number of businesses will face collapse at that point. So we are highly aware of the situation and, of course, we will have to wait and see whether we're in a position next week to give greater clarity to the industry.
Welsh: Diolch yn fawr, Rhun. Rŷn ni wedi ei gwneud hi'n glir y byddwn ni'n rhoi tair wythnos o rybudd i'r rheini sy'n gweithio yn y sector yma fel eu bod nhw'n cael cyfle i baratoi. Wrth gwrs, cawn ni weld nawr, wythnos nesaf, os bydd yr R rate mewn sefyllfa lle y gallwn ni roi mwy o eglurder iddyn nhw ynglŷn â'r posibiliadau am agor yn y dyfodol. Rŷn ni'n ymwybodol iawn, wrth gwrs, bod furlough, bod y tapering yna yn mynd i ddechrau ym mis Awst, ac os nad oes modd i bobl gael unrhyw fath o gyflog yn dod i mewn, wrth gwrs bydd hi'n amhosibl iddyn nhw dalu pobl. Felly, rŷn ni'n ymwybodol o'r dyddiad yna fel diwedd y sefyllfa, lle mae'n bosibl y bydd lot o bobl yn mynd i'r wal os na fyddwn ni yn y sefyllfa yna. Felly, rŷn ni'n ymwybodol dros ben o'r sefyllfa ac, wrth gwrs, rwy'n gobeithio y cawn ni weld nawr os byddwn ni mewn sefyllfa erbyn wythnos nesaf i roi mwy o eglurhad i'r diwydiant.
English: Thank you, Angela. First of all, on the community consent, I do think that one thing that we need to avoid is to open up and to find that the communities, locally, are hostile to the people who are coming in. That would be the worst place to be, and so, we do need to develop that community consent. We speak very regularly to local authorities about the feelings within their communities and, of course, they have representatives within their communities. I think the other thing to underline is that these businesses don't work apart from their communities; they are a part of the community, and it is really important for them also to make their presence felt, for them to make their voices heard, because they are the community as well, and many, many people who work in these businesses are of the community. So, I think we've got to be really careful not to say that it's us and them and that it's the industry versus the community; they belong to each other and they are symbiotic. They are dependent on each other as well. Just in terms of the accommodation, it is really difficult and it will be really difficult to police things unless it's straightforward. So, whilst I hear your pleas about being creative and imaginative, we've also got to work out how we can police the system and allow it to function, and so if we go away from shared facilities, it's very difficult to see where those lines would be drawn. So, whilst I hear you, I do think that we have to get something that is implementable and that we can police, in a way.
Welsh: Diolch, Angela. Yn gyntaf, o ran cydsyniad y gymuned, credaf mai un peth y mae angen inni ei osgoi yw agor, a chanfod bod y cymunedau, yn lleol, yn elyniaethus tuag at y bobl sy'n dod i mewn. Dyna'r lle gwaethaf i fod, ac felly, mae angen inni ddatblygu cydsyniad yn y gymuned. Rydym yn siarad yn rheolaidd ag awdurdodau lleol am y teimladau yn eu cymunedau ac wrth gwrs, mae ganddynt gynrychiolwyr o fewn eu cymunedau. Rwy'n credu mai'r peth arall i'w danlinellu yw nad yw'r busnesau hyn yn gweithio ar wahân i'w cymunedau; maent yn rhan o'r gymuned, ac mae'n wirioneddol bwysig iddynt gael eu gweld, a lleisio eu barn, oherwydd maent hwy'n rhan o'r gymuned yn ogystal, ac mae llawer iawn o bobl sy'n gweithio yn y busnesau hyn yn rhan o'r gymuned. Felly, rwy'n credu bod yn rhaid inni fod yn ofalus iawn i beidio â dweud 'ni a nhw', a'r diwydiant yn erbyn y gymuned; maent yn perthyn i'w gilydd ac maent yn symbiotig. Maent yn ddibynnol ar ei gilydd hefyd. O ran y llety, mae'n wirioneddol anodd ac fe fydd yn wirioneddol anodd plismona pethau oni bai ei fod yn syml. Felly, er fy mod yn clywed eich ple am fod yn greadigol ac yn ddychmygus, mae'n rhaid inni hefyd feddwl sut y gallwn blismona'r system a gadael iddi weithredu, ac felly os symudwn oddi wrth gyfleusterau a rennir, mae'n anodd iawn gweld ble fyddai'r llinellau'n cael eu tynnu. Felly, er fy mod yn eich clywed, credaf fod yn rhaid inni gael rhywbeth y gellir ei roi ar waith ac y gallwn ei blismona, mewn ffordd.
English: Thank you, Joyce. I think we probably recognise that, if we were to open the tourism sector, then it would be very difficult not to move away from the localism situation. Of course, people who will be travelling there or would be going from there, it would be very difficult to ask people to travel to somewhere and then not to move. It would be very, very difficult to police. So, I think we recognise that, which is why we need to take this very, very carefully and understand that that's what it would mean. Of course, we need to be aware, therefore, that the headroom in relation to R, once we open that, it means that we'd be in a very different situation in terms of opening up our communities more widely. This is not easy and we've got to get the balance right, and what's clear to me is that we need to get the buy-in, as I say, of that local community.
Welsh: Diolch, Joyce. Credaf ei bod yn debygol ein bod yn cydnabod, pe baem yn agor y sector twristiaeth, y byddai'n anodd iawn peidio â symud oddi wrth y rheol i aros yn lleol. Wrth gwrs, bydd pobl yn teithio yno neu'n mynd oddi yno, byddai'n anodd iawn gofyn i bobl deithio i rywle ac i beidio â symud wedyn. Byddai'n anodd iawn ei blismona. Felly, rwy'n credu ein bod yn cydnabod hynny, a dyna pam y mae angen inni fod yn ofalus iawn ynglŷn â hyn a deall mai dyna y byddai'n ei olygu. Wrth gwrs, mae angen inni fod yn ymwybodol felly fod yr hyblygrwydd mewn perthynas â'r rhif R, ar ôl inni agor hwnnw, yn golygu y byddem mewn sefyllfa wahanol iawn o ran agor ein cymunedau'n ehangach. Nid yw hyn yn hawdd ac mae'n rhaid i ni gael y cydbwysedd yn iawn, a'r hyn sy'n glir i mi yw bod angen inni gael cefnogaeth y gymuned leol, fel rwy'n dweud.
English: Minister, in Plenary a month ago in response to Siân Gwenllian, you confirmed that you were aware of concerns that a proposed clause within the curriculum and assessment Bill could have a detrimental impact on the gains that have been made in terms of Welsh-medium education, and that you would look carefully at the situation. However, it doesn't appear that there's been any change in the Government's plans, and yesterday, Ceredigion County Council made a public statement urging, once again, the Government to secure changes to the Bill before it's published, for the benefit of developing Wales as a bilingual nation in line with all of our aspirations. Minister, how is placing English on the face of the Bill, and forcing those children who want to have a Welsh-medium education to opt out, consistent with the Welsh Government's vision of creating a million Welsh speakers? Quite to the contrary, isn't it entirely contrary to the wording and the spirit of the Welsh Government's policy, which states clearly that Welsh-medium education is the most effective way of securing full bilingualism? Will you therefore commit to do everything within your power within the Cabinet to insist that the education department supports, rather than undermines, your language strategy?
Welsh: Weinidog, yn y Cyfarfod Llawn fis yn ôl mewn ymateb i Siân Gwenllian, fe wnaethoch chi gadarnhau eich bod yn ymwybodol o bryder y gallai cymal arfaethedig o fewn y Bil cwricwlwm ac asesu gael effaith andwyol ar yr enillion sydd wedi bod ym maes addysg Gymraeg, ac y byddech chi'n craffu'n fanwl ar y sefyllfa. Fodd bynnag, nid yw'n ymddangos bod unrhyw newid wedi bod yng nghynlluniau'r Llywodraeth, a ddoe, cyhoeddodd Cyngor Sir Ceredigion ddatganiad cyhoeddus yn pwyso o'r newydd ar y Llywodraeth i sicrhau newid i'r Bil cyn ei gyhoeddi, er lles datblygu Cymru'n wlad ddwyieithog yn unol â'n dyheadau ni oll. Weinidog, sut mae rhoi'r Saesneg ar wyneb y Bil, a gorfodi plant sydd am gael addysg Gymraeg i optio allan, yn gyson gyda gweledigaeth y Llywodraeth o greu miliwn o siaradwyr Cymraeg? I'r gwrthwyneb, onid yw'n hollol groes i eiriad ac ysbryd polisi'r Llywodraeth, sy'n datgan yn gwbl glir mai addysg Gymraeg yw'r ffordd fwyaf effeithiol o sicrhau dwyieithrwydd cyflawn? A wnewch chi felly ymrwymo i wneud popeth o fewn eich gallu o fewn y Cabinet i fynnu bod yr adran addysg yn cefnogi, nid yn tanseilio, eich strategaeth iaith?
English: Thank you very much. Just to say that I have had a number of discussions with the Minister for Education on this issue, and I'd like to make it clear, I think, that as we are a bilingual nation, I think it makes a great deal of sense that we place Welsh and English on the face of the Bill. That's what you would expect in a bilingual nation. What is important is that there are opportunities and that it's possible for us to ensure that people are immersed in the Welsh language, as has traditionally happened in Wales, particularly up until the age of seven. Now, that will be possible through the Bill, and I am confident that we will be in that situation.
Welsh: Diolch yn fawr. Jest i ddweud fy mod i wedi cael sawl trafodaeth gyda'r Gweinidog Addysg ar y mater yma. Ac i'w wneud yn glir, dwi'n meddwl, gan ein bod ni'n wlad ddwyieithog, dwi'n meddwl ei bod hi'n gwneud lot o synnwyr ein bod ni'n rhoi Cymraeg a Saesneg yn y Bil. Dyna beth y byddech chi'n disgwyl o wlad ddwyieithog. Beth sydd yn bwysig yw bod yna gyfle a'i bod hi'n bosibl inni sicrhau bod pobl yn cael eu trwytho yn y Gymraeg, fel sydd wedi digwydd yn draddodiadol yng Nghymru, yn arbennig tan yn saith oed. Mi fydd hynny'n bosibl yn y Bil a dwi'n hyderus y byddwn ni yn y sefyllfa yna.
English: Can I just ask you about the Welsh Mountain Zoo? We heard earlier on in an exchange with your ministerial colleague Ken Skates that zoos have never been required to close here in Wales and that they are allowed to open, but, obviously, with a 5-mile travel restriction, that's not going to be viable any time soon, until that restriction is lifted. I heard what you said in response to Joyce Watson, about the reopening of the tourism industry, and I would urge you to consider, even as a halfway step, allowing people to travel within neighbouring counties, even, as a means to opening some of these open-air attractions, which could be opened in a safe way whilst maintaining social distancing for even local visitors. Can I also ask about the funding and resources made available to that zoo? It is the national zoo of Wales. We have a national library, we have a national theatre, we have national museums, all of which receive significant annual support from the Welsh Government, but our national zoo doesn't. Is that something that you can consider, providing some support on a more frequent and annual basis in the future, particularly given the fact that this is a very cherished national asset that is very important to the tourism economy in north Wales?
Welsh: A gaf fi ofyn i chi am Sw Mynydd Cymru? Clywsom yn gynharach mewn ateb gan eich cyd-Weinidog, Ken Skates, na fu unrhyw alw ar sŵau i gau yma yng Nghymru a'u bod yn cael caniatâd i agor, ond yn amlwg, gyda chyfyngiad teithio o 5 milltir, nid yw hynny'n mynd i fod yn ymarferol ar hyn o bryd, hyd nes y caiff y cyfyngiad hwnnw ei godi. Clywais yr hyn a ddywedoch chi wrth ymateb i Joyce Watson, am ailagor y diwydiant twristiaeth, a byddwn yn eich annog i ystyried caniatáu, fel cam hanner ffordd hyd yn oed, i bobl deithio o fewn siroedd cyfagos, fel ffordd o agor rhai o'r atyniadau awyr agored hyn, y gellid eu hagor mewn ffordd ddiogel tra'n cynnal mesurau cadw pellter cymdeithasol ar gyfer ymwelwyr lleol hyd yn oed. A gaf fi ofyn hefyd am y cyllid a'r adnoddau sydd ar gael i'r sw honno? Hon yw sw genedlaethol Cymru. Mae gennym lyfrgell genedlaethol, mae gennym theatr genedlaethol, mae gennym amgueddfeydd cenedlaethol, ac mae pob un ohonynt yn cael cymorth blynyddol sylweddol gan Lywodraeth Cymru, ond nid yw ein sw genedlaethol yn cael hynny. A yw hynny'n rhywbeth y gallwch ei ystyried, gan ddarparu rhywfaint o gymorth yn fwy aml ac yn fwy blynyddol yn y dyfodol, yn enwedig o gofio ei bod yn ased cenedlaethol annwyl iawn sy'n bwysig iawn i economi twristiaeth gogledd Cymru?
