English: I have worked with Business Wales and have referred a number of businesses to Business Wales - certainly, there are committed staff there, but the concerns I have very often, and the Minister will be aware of this, as I have corresponded with him on the issue on a number of occasions, is that there's underfunding often, not enough resources provided to them, and there is too much pressure placed on too few staff, and the result is that they occasionally can't deliver. And in seeking a new model, we would be looking for new prioritisation to ensure that the objectives of the staff working on the ground can be delivered. I certainly agree with the Minister's concerns when it comes to the impact of leaving the European Union. We know how much European funding has been provided over the years to initiatives related to business development, and we know that at this point in time, within possibly a few months of leaving the European Union, we still don't have the kind of assurances, even at that most fundamental level, in terms of future funding in order to continue with this work, which is going to add to the pressures on the scarce resources available to Business Wales at present. In terms of the future of the first key area outlined by the Minister, I certainly agree that we need to further develop this one-stop-shop element. The second element relates to what needs to be done, namely to root more of our businesses within communities across Wales. There has been a shift in frameworks by Business Wales that has moved Business Wales further away from businesses. That's certainly the case in my constituency, and we must be more sensitive to the need to ensure that Business Wales staff are on the ground within our communities, in all parts of Wales, so that every business, wherever they are, can feel that they have a real link with sources of advice and support. In terms of the third area of work that the Minister mentioned - sustainable growth - I would welcome further information from the Minister on his ambitions in investing in community initiatives that can become businesses that are important employers within our communities and are truly rooted within those communities. I visited Ynni Ogwen recently in Bethesda, which is doing excellent work environmentally in terms of the way it produces energy, but also in terms of the work it does as a hub for economic development in that area. So, I would welcome further information on that. Also, could we have further information on the steps that need to be taken in order to root Welsh businesses here in Wales for the future? The problem, as we know, is that when a business reaches a certain scale, there is that temptation in Wales to sell up, losing the control that we have of those businesses. We saw that happen in the case of Marco Cable Management in my constituency recently. It was exactly that: a company that had received support from the Welsh Government, but that business wasn't given the support that it needed to root itself in Anglesey. And what's happening now - it is moving to the midlands, and that is something that I regret deeply, and I do feel that there is still a lack of focus on that work of retaining Welsh businesses here in Wales, because that's how you retain their profits in Wales for today, but also their commitment to Wales for the future.
Welsh: Dwi wedi gweithio am sbel efo Busnes Cymru ac wedi cyfeirio nifer o fusnesau at Fusnes Cymru - yn sicr, mae yna staff sydd yn ymroddedig iawn, ond y pryderon sydd gen i yn aml iawn, ac mi fydd y Gweinidog yn ymwybodol o hyn, gan fy mod i wedi llythyru efo fo ar y mater ar nifer o achlysuron, ydy bod yna dangyllido yn aml, dim digon o adnoddau wedi cael eu rhoi iddyn nhw, ac mae yna bwysau gormodol yn cael ei roi ar rhy ychydig o staff, a'r canlyniad ydy eu bod nhw'n methu delifro weithiau. Mi fyddwn ni, wrth chwilio am fodel newydd, yn chwilio am flaenoriaethu o'r newydd, mewn ffordd, er mwyn gwneud yn siŵr bod yr amcanion sydd gan y staff yn gweithio ar y llawr yn gallu cael eu gwireddu. Dwi yn sicr yn cyd-fynd â phryderon y Gweinidog pan mae'n dod at impact ymadael â'r Undeb Ewropeaidd. Rydyn ni'n gwybod cymaint o gyllid Ewropeaidd sydd wedi cael ei roi dros y blynyddoedd at fentrau yn gysylltiedig â datblygu busnesau, ac rydyn ni'n gwybod ein bod ni ar y pwynt yma mewn amser, o fewn ychydig fisoedd, o bosib, i fod yn gadael yr Undeb Ewropeaidd, yn dal heb y math o sicrwydd, ar hyd yn oed lefel sylfaenol, ynglŷn â'r cyllid a fyddai'n dod yn y dyfodol i allu parhau â'r gwaith yma, sydd eto yn mynd i gynyddu'r pwysau ar yr adnoddau prin sydd gan y corff Busnes Cymru yn barod. O ran y dyfodol yr ardal allweddol gyntaf a gafodd ei hamlinellu gan y Gweinidog, dwi'n cyd-fynd, yn sicr, fod yn rhaid inni ddatblygu ymhellach yr elfen one-stop shop yma. Mae'r ail elfen yn ymwneud â beth sydd angen ei wneud, dwi'n meddwl, sef gwreiddio mwy o fewn cymunedau ar draws Cymru. Mae yna newid wedi bod mewn fframweithiau gan Fusnes Cymru dros y blynyddoedd sydd wedi symud Busnes Cymru ymhellach oddi wrth fusnesau, yn sicr yn fy etholaeth i. Mae'n rhaid inni fod yn fwy sensitif i'r angen i gael gweithwyr Busnes Cymru ar y ddaear o fewn ein cymunedau ni, ymhob rhan o Gymru, er mwyn i bob un busnes, ble bynnag maen nhw, yn teimlo bod ganddyn nhw wirioneddol gyswllt â ffynonellau o gymorth. O ran y drydedd ardal o waith y soniodd y Gweinidog amdano fo - twf cynaliadwy - mi fyddwn i'n croesawu rhagor o wybodaeth gan y Gweinidog ynglŷn â'r uchelgeisiau sydd ganddo fo i fuddsoddi mewn mentrau cymunedol hefyd, sy'n gallu troi i mewn i fusnesau sydd yn gyflogwyr pwysig o fewn ein cymunedau ni, ac yn wirioneddol wedi'u gwreiddio o fewn y cymunedau hynny. Mi wnes i ymweld ag Ynni Ogwen yn ddiweddar ym Methesda, sy'n gwneud gwaith rhagorol yn amgylcheddol o ran y ffordd mae'n cynhyrchu ynni, ond hefyd o ran y gwaith mae o'n ei wneud fel hub ar gyfer datblygu economaidd yn yr ardal honno. Felly, mi fyddwn i'n croesawu rhagor o wybodaeth am hynny. Hefyd, a fyddai modd cael rhagor o wybodaeth ynglŷn â'r camau sydd angen eu gwneud er mwyn gwreiddio busnesau Cymreig yng Nghymru ar gyfer y dyfodol? Y broblem, fel rydyn ni'n gwybod yn aml, ydy pan mae busnes yn cyrraedd rhyw faint, mae yna demtasiwn yng Nghymru i werthu'r busnes hwnnw gan golli'r rheolaeth sydd gennym ni ar y busnesau hynny. Mi welsom ni hynny'n digwydd yn achos Marco Cable Management yn fy etholaeth i yn ddiweddar - yn union hynny: cwmni oedd wedi cael cefnogaeth gan Lywodraeth Cymru, ond mi fethwyd â chael gafael ar y busnes hwnnw drwy sicrhau'r cymorth a fyddai wedi gallu ei wreiddio fo yn Ynys Môn. A beth sy'n digwydd rŵan - mae o wedi mynd, mae o'n symud i ganolbarth Lloegr, ac mae hynny'n rhywbeth dwi'n gresynu'n fawr ynglŷn â fo, a dwi'n teimlo bod yna'n dal ddiffyg ffocws ar y gwaith yna o gadw busnesau Cymreig yn gynhenid Gymreig, oherwydd dyna sut mae cadw eu helw nhw yng Nghymru heddiw, ond eu presenoldeb nhw a'u hymrwymiad nhw i Gymru ar gyfer y dyfodol.
