English: Well, with respect, the First Minister, in his legislative statement yesterday, made no mention of this at all. Given that we've only got about 18 months of this Assembly term left, it's quite clear that the Government will not be legislating in this particular area. And as I've said, given the urgency in this area - 2,000 premature deaths; five a day - surely, that has to be one of the top priorities of the Government to make progress in this area. But the other point that needs to be addressed here is that, obviously, all the announcements that Welsh Government have made this term, in particular around the climate emergency and the way that we're going to progress to zero carbon emissions by 2050 - supported from these benches - require a dialogue with business and enterprise across the length and breadth of Wales. If you take Port Talbot steelworks, for example, 15 per cent of Wales's carbon emissions comes from Port Talbot steelworks. It's critical that businesses have confidence that the journey that they are going to have to undertake can be achieved and Government will be supporting them. Will you commit to launching an economic summit with Ken Skates, the economy Minister, to engage with business, call them around the table, so that a clear plan of action that is costed and understood can be brought forward, rather than the rhetoric that we're hearing from the protesters at the moment, which is saying that there just simply is not enough happening in this area and the battle for hearts and minds is in danger of being lost on this important agenda?
Welsh: Wel, gyda phob parch, ni soniodd y Prif Weinidog am hyn o gwbl yn ei ddatganiad deddfwriaethol ddoe. O gofio mai dim ond oddeutu 18 mis o dymor y Cynulliad hwn sydd gennym ar ôl, mae'n gwbl glir na fydd y Llywodraeth yn deddfu yn y maes penodol hwn. Ac fel rwyf wedi'i ddweud, o gofio bod hwn yn fater brys - 2,000 o farwolaethau cyn pryd; pump y dydd - yn sicr, mae'n rhaid i hynny fod yn un o brif flaenoriaethau'r Llywodraeth er mwyn gwneud cynnydd yn y maes hwn. Ond y pwynt arall y mae angen sôn amdano yma, yn amlwg, yw bod yr holl gyhoeddiadau a wnaed gan Lywodraeth Cymru y tymor hwn, yn benodol ynghylch yr argyfwng hinsawdd a'r ffordd y byddwn yn cyrraedd dim allyriadau carbon erbyn 2050 - a gefnogir gan y meinciau hyn - yn galw am ddeialog gyda busnesau a mentrau ledled Cymru. Os ydych yn ystyried gwaith dur Port Talbot, er enghraifft, daw 15 y cant o allyriadau carbon Cymru o waith dur Port Talbot. Mae'n hanfodol fod busnesau'n hyderus y gellir cwblhau'r daith y bydd yn rhaid iddynt fynd arni ac y bydd y Llywodraeth yn eu cefnogi. A wnewch chi ymrwymo i lansio uwchgynhadledd economaidd gyda Ken Skates, Gweinidog yr economi, i ymgysylltu â busnesau, eu gwahodd o gwmpas y bwrdd, fel y gellir cyflwyno cynllun gweithredu clir wedi'i gostio ac y mae pawb yn ei ddeall, yn hytrach na'r rhethreg a glywn gan y protestwyr ar hyn o bryd, sy'n dweud nad oes digon yn digwydd yn y maes hwn ac mae perygl y bydd y frwydr dros galonnau a meddyliau yn cael ei cholli ar yr agenda bwysig hon?
English: So, I've already attended the economic council that is chaired by my colleague Ken Skates at the invitation of businesses to discuss how they can help us respond to the climate emergency that we declared, and also how we can get to net zero by 2050, which is our ambition, going further than the UK Committee on Climate Change advised us to do. So, if it's something that businesses would like us to do, then I'm sure Ken Skates and I would be happy to do it, but I have to say I was very pleased to be invited to the economic council at the request of businesses, because they see that, if we are going to achieve those net zero reductions, they are a big part in helping us do it.
Welsh: Felly, rwyf eisoes wedi mynychu'r cyngor economaidd a gadeirir gan fy nghyd-Weinidog Ken Skates, ar ôl cael gwahoddiad gan fusnesau i drafod sut y gallant ein helpu i ymateb i'r argyfwng hinsawdd a ddatganwyd gennym, yn ogystal â sut y gallwn gyrraedd sero net erbyn 2050, sef ein huchelgais, gan fynd ymhellach na'r hyn y cawsom ein cynghori i wneud gan Bwyllgor y DU ar y Newid yn yr Hinsawdd. Felly, os yw'n rhywbeth yr hoffai busnesau i ni ei wneud, yna rwy'n siŵr y byddai Ken Skates a minnau'n fwy na pharod i'w wneud, ond mae'n rhaid i mi ddweud fy mod yn falch iawn o gael fy ngwahodd i'r cyngor economaidd ar gais busnesau, gan eu bod yn gweld, os ydym am gyflawni'r gostyngiadau sero net hynny, eu bod yn rhan fawr o'r gwaith i'n helpu i wneud hynny.
English: Minister, you will be aware, of course, that there are a number of factors currently having a negative impact on the beef sector as it currently stands, with major concerns about prices and the impact of the stockpiling that happened in the expectation that Brexit would happen earlier, and that's now hitting the market and having an impact on the viability of what's being produced here in Wales. Now, there have been demands for the Welsh Government and Hybu Cig Cymru, processors and retailers to come together in order to work with the industry to tackle some of these problems. Beef farmers in Ireland, of course, will see €100 million being directed towards them through the European Commission and the Irish Government, so may I ask what you as a Government intend to do to respond to the situation faced by the sector?
Welsh: Diolch, Llywydd. Weinidog, byddwch chi'n ymwybodol, wrth gwrs, bod sawl ffactor yn cael effaith negyddol ar hyn o bryd ar y sector biff fel y mae hi, gyda chonsérn mawr am brisiau, wrth gwrs, ac effaith y stocpeilio ddigwyddodd, wrth gwrs, gan ddisgwyl bod Brecsit yn digwydd yn gynharach, ond bod hynny nawr yn dod i'r farchnad ac yn effeithio ar hyfywedd y cynnyrch sydd yn cael ei gynhyrchu yma yng Nghymru. Nawr, mae galwadau wedi bod, wrth gwrs, i Lywodraeth Cymru, Hybu Cig Cymru, proseswyr, manwerthwyr, ddod at ei gilydd er mwyn gweithredu gyda'r diwydiant i fynd i'r afael â rhai o'r problemau yma. Mae ffermwyr biff yn Iwerddon, wrth gwrs, yn mynd i weld €100 miliwn yn cael ei gyfeirio tuag atyn nhw drwy'r Comisiwn Ewropeaidd a Llywodraeth yr Iwerddon. Felly, gaf i ofyn beth ŷch chi fel Llywodraeth yn bwriadu ei wneud i ymateb i'r sefyllfa mae'r sector yn ei hwynebu?
English: Well, I'm not aware of having a request for us all to come together, but you'll be very aware that, next week, we'll be at the Royal Welsh Show, where all the people that you've just mentioned can come together to discuss this. I've seen the press release from National Farmers Union Cymru. I've also had a discussion, very briefly, with NFU Cymru on this issue. Farming is an industry where market changes are commonplace, but the beef sector has experienced a really turbulent time, I think, over the past few months and, clearly, lower prices are a concern. So, I'm very happy to discuss this with anybody who has an interest in it. As I say, we'll all be in the same place next week, so maybe that will be the opportunity to do so. You mentioned Ireland, and, obviously, the Republic of Ireland, the prices are low in a historic context and the evidence does suggest that the uncertainty of our exit from the European Union is harming Irish beef producers too, and I know their prices have been consistently low, but I think there is a parity there at the moment that we haven't seen before.
Welsh: Wel, nid wyf yn ymwybodol o gais i bob un ohonom ddod at ein gilydd, ond fe fyddwch yn ymwybodol iawn, yr wythnos nesaf, y byddwn yn Sioe Frenhinol Cymru, lle gall yr holl bobl rydych newydd eu crybwyll ddod at ei gilydd i drafod hyn. Rwyf wedi gweld y datganiad i'r wasg gan Undeb Cenedlaethol Amaethwyr Cymru. Rwyf hefyd wedi cael trafodaeth fer iawn gydag NFU Cymru ynglŷn â'r mater hwn. Mae ffermio'n ddiwydiant lle mae newidiadau yn y farchnad yn gyffredin, ond credaf fod y sector cig eidion wedi dioddef cyfnod cythryblus iawn dros y misoedd diwethaf, ac yn amlwg, mae prisiau is yn peri pryder. Felly, rwy'n fwy na pharod i drafod hyn gydag unrhyw un sydd â diddordeb. Fel y dywedaf, bydd pob un ohonom yn yr un lle yr wythnos nesaf, felly efallai y bydd hynny'n gyfle i wneud hynny. Fe sonioch chi am Iwerddon, ac yn amlwg, Gweriniaeth Iwerddon, mae'r prisiau'n isel mewn cyd-destun hanesyddol ac mae'r dystiolaeth yn awgrymu bod yr ansicrwydd ynglŷn â'n hymadawiad â'r Undeb Ewropeaidd yn niweidio cynhyrchwyr cig eidion Iwerddon hefyd, a gwn fod eu prisiau wedi bod yn isel yn gyson, ond credaf fod paredd yno ar hyn o bryd nad ydym wedi'i weld o'r blaen.
English: If I can just go back to your first question, I don't have £100 million that I can just give to the agricultural sector in relation to beef prices. So, if that's what people are looking for, then, unfortunately, I do not have that level of money, and I don't think anybody in these times of austerity would expect me to do so. What I did do last year was give £2 million to the red meat sector for them to do some benchmarking. Unfortunately, not all that funding was taken up by red meat businesses, so I think that also shows something that we should take on board as well. In relation to your question around bovine TB, and I absolutely accept the personal side of this and the distress it causes, you'll be aware of the TB eradication programme refresh that we had, and we're working through that. And the short answer to your last bit - 'Do we think we should introduce a badger cull?' - the answer's 'no'.
Welsh: Os caf ddychwelyd at eich cwestiwn cyntaf, nid oes gennyf £100 miliwn y gallaf ei roi i'r sector amaethyddol mewn perthynas â phrisiau cig eidion. Felly, os mai am hynny y mae pobl yn chwilio, yna yn anffodus, nid oes gennyf gymaint â hynny o arian, ac ni chredaf y byddai unrhyw un yn y cyfnod hwn o gyni yn disgwyl i mi wneud hynny. Yr hyn a wneuthum y llynedd oedd rhoi £2 filiwn i'r sector cig coch fel y gallent wneud rhywfaint o feincnodi. Yn anffodus, ni fanteisiwyd ar yr holl arian hwnnw gan fusnesau cig coch, felly credaf fod hynny hefyd yn dangos rhywbeth y dylem ei ystyried. O ran eich cwestiwn ynghylch TB buchol, ac rwy'n derbyn yn llwyr yr ochr bersonol yn hyn o beth a'r trallod y mae'n ei achosi, fe fyddwch yn ymwybodol o'r gwaith a wnaed gennym ar ddiweddaru'r rhaglen ddileu TB, ac rydym yn gweithio ar hynny. A'r ateb byr i ran olaf eich cwestiwn - 'A ydym yn credu y dylem gyflwyno rhaglen i ddifa moch daear?' - yr ateb yw 'na'.
English: Thank you. The Welsh Government's action plan for pollinators, revised in 2018, aims to reduce and reverse the decline in pollinators. The plan was developed with stakeholders and has been recognised as an exemplar of co-design and co-production in the UK. Welsh Government and stakeholders share responsibility for its delivery.
Welsh: Diolch. Nod cynllun gweithredu Llywodraeth Cymru ar gyfer pryfed peillio, a ddiwygiwyd yn 2018, yw lleihau a gwrthdroi'r dirywiad mewn pryfed peillio. Datblygwyd y cynllun gyda rhanddeiliaid ac fe'i cydnabuwyd fel enghraifft o gydgynllunio a chydgynhyrchu yn y DU. Mae Llywodraeth Cymru a rhanddeiliaid yn rhannu'r cyfrifoldeb dros ei gyflawni.
English: I do welcome all those initiatives by the Welsh Government, and I know that they will help pollinators, but there are other things that can be done. We only have to open our eyes and look around the cities, the towns and the villages, and we can see an abundance of manicured, green, sterile spaces alongside roads and parks and on land surrounding public buildings, like hospitals, schools and offices. I'm sure that, if those areas were well managed, they'd all add up to a substantial amount of habitat that could be helping our pollinators thrive. Cutting grass less frequently would help significantly and allow wild flowers to grow. It's cheap, it's effective, but it also would save the local authorities money. In Holland, they've gone a step further, and they've planted flowers on the rooftops of bus stops, as an example, so we could look at roof space on other buildings. So, what actions are the Welsh Government currently taking to encourage public sector bodies to adopt pollinator-friendly policies when it comes to managing the land around their buildings and the land that they are responsible for?
Welsh: Croesawaf yr holl fentrau hynny gan Lywodraeth Cymru, a gwn y byddant yn helpu pryfed peillio, ond mae pethau eraill y gellir eu gwneud. Nid oes ond yn rhaid i ni agor ein llygaid ac edrych o gwmpas y dinasoedd, y trefi a'r pentrefi, a gallwn weld digonedd o fannau taclus, gwyrdd, anffrwythlon ger ffyrdd a pharciau ac ar dir o amgylch adeiladau cyhoeddus, fel ysbytai, ysgolion a swyddfeydd. Rwy'n siŵr, pe bai'r ardaloedd hynny'n cael eu rheoli'n dda, y byddent yn darparu cynefinoedd sylweddol a allai fod yn helpu ein pryfed peillio i ffynnu. Byddai torri gwair yn llai aml yn helpu'n sylweddol ac yn caniatáu i flodau gwyllt dyfu. Mae'n rhad, mae'n effeithiol, ond byddai hefyd yn arbed arian i'r awdurdodau lleol. Yn yr Iseldiroedd, maent wedi mynd gam ymhellach ac wedi plannu blodau ar doeau arosfannau bysiau, er enghraifft, felly gallem ystyried lleoedd ar doeau adeiladau eraill. Felly, pa gamau y mae Llywodraeth Cymru yn eu cymryd ar hyn o bryd i annog cyrff y sector cyhoeddus i fabwysiadu polisïau sy'n gyfeillgar i bryfed peillio wrth reoli'r tir o amgylch eu hadeiladau a'r tir y maent yn gyfrifol amdano?
English: Thank you. In my opening answer to Joyce Watson, I mentioned the Welsh Government's action plan for pollinators, and we have a taskforce that works to deliver the action plan. The Member will also be aware of Caru Gwenyn, our Bee Friendly scheme, which encourages communities to take positive action for pollinators. I think the point you raise about not cutting verges - we're also seeing a lot of wild meadow roundabouts as well. Interestingly, I read about the bus stops with the gardens on top of the bus shelters at the weekend, and asked officials on Monday if they could look at that. I understand also that some local authorities are now directing the finance that they would have used to cut verges into litter picks, which I think is a bit of a circular system, which I think could be very beneficial, but I think there's a huge amount that we can all do. We can all monitor pollinators to make sure that we're contributing as well.
Welsh: Diolch. Yn fy ateb agoriadol i Joyce Watson, soniais am gynllun gweithredu Llywodraeth Cymru ar gyfer pryfed peillio, ac mae gennym dasglu sy'n gweithio i roi'r cynllun gweithredu ar waith. Bydd yr Aelod hefyd yn ymwybodol o'n cynllun Caru Gwenyn, sy'n annog cymunedau i gymryd camau cadarnhaol ar gyfer pryfed peillio. Credaf fod y pwynt a godwch ynglŷn â pheidio â thorri gwair ar leiniau - rydym hefyd yn gweld llawer o gylchfannau dolydd gwyllt hefyd. Yn ddiddorol, darllenais am y safleoedd bysiau gyda'r gerddi ar ben yr arosfannau dros y penwythnos, a gofynnais i swyddogion edrych ar hynny ddydd Llun. Deallaf hefyd fod rhai awdurdodau lleol bellach yn defnyddio'r cyllid y byddent wedi'i ddefnyddio i dorri lleiniau i godi sbwriel, sy'n system eithaf cylchol yn fy marn i, a gallai fod yn fuddiol iawn, ond credaf fod llawer iawn y gall pob un ohonom ei wneud. Gall pob un ohonom fonitro pryfed peillio i sicrhau ein bod yn cyfrannu hefyd.
English: Minister, would you join in congratulating the Assembly Commission with me on the action it has taken? I clambered up to the top of the Pierhead building a couple of weeks ago, with our excellent staff there, some of whom are now expert beekeepers, and indeed I think some Assembly Members' support staff also have joined the programme. I saw our two hives, and they were very active and, I'm told that we have some of the best bees in the bay - though they go for many miles around, apparently, in their work. That's just one example of what we could be doing. On a recent private visit to Chicago, I saw what they're doing with green roofs, and they look fantastic - a great amenity. And that's another area. And can I say, if anyone has seen my desk, they know how committed I am to rather messy approaches to our daily lives? We could replicate this, indeed, on the grass verges and other open areas we have around, to great benefit to the wildlife.
Welsh: Weinidog, a wnewch chi ymuno â mi i longyfarch Comisiwn y Cynulliad ar y camau y mae wedi'u cymryd? Euthum i lawr uchaf adeilad y Pierhead ychydig wythnosau yn ôl, gyda'n staff ardderchog yno, gyda rhai ohonynt bellach yn wenynwyr arbenigol, ac yn wir, credaf fod rhai o staff cymorth Aelodau'r Cynulliad hefyd wedi ymuno â'r rhaglen. Gwelais ein dau gwch gwenyn, ac roeddent yn weithgar iawn, a dywedir wrthyf fod gennym rai o'r gwenyn gorau yn y bae - er eu bod yn teithio o gwmpas am filltiroedd lawer, yn ôl y sôn, yn eu gwaith. Dyna un enghraifft yn unig o'r hyn y gallem fod yn ei wneud. Ar ymweliad preifat diweddar â Chicago, gwelais yr hyn y maent yn ei wneud gyda thoeau gwyrdd, ac maent yn edrych yn wych - amwynder gwych. A dyna faes arall. Ac a gaf fi ddweud, os oes unrhyw un wedi gweld fy nesg, maent yn gwybod pa mor ymrwymedig wyf i i ymagwedd braidd yn anniben tuag at ein bywydau bob dydd? Gallem efelychu hyn, yn wir, ar y lleiniau glas ac ardaloedd agored eraill sydd gennym o'n cwmpas, er mawr fudd i fywyd gwyllt.
English: Thank you very much. Yes, sometimes tidy isn't best, is it? I very much welcome what you say about the Assembly Commission. It's very good to hear there are some beehives - I, too, will now clamber up. We've got four Welsh Government offices, now, around Wales, that have beehives in them - or outside them. I think it's great that staff have taken this on in a voluntary role. I know, certainly, that the - . I'm trying to think. I think it might have been the Merthyr offices where I went, and there was an education official who has now become an expert in looking after beehives because she volunteered for the role to do that. I'm very interested in green roofs, as I said. Again, we have got a pilot project, Nature isn't Neat, which is funded by our Rural Communities LEADER scheme from the rural development programme. That develops an area-based approach - so, it can either be a village or a town that becomes a pollinator-friendly area. I know that the pilot is going to focus on Monmouth town in Nick Ramsay's constituency.
Welsh: Diolch yn fawr iawn. Ie, weithiau nid taclusrwydd sydd orau. Croesawaf yn fawr yr hyn a ddywedwch am Gomisiwn y Cynulliad. Mae'n dda iawn clywed bod yno gychod gwenyn - rwyf innau, hefyd, am fynd i fyny yno. Mae gennym bedair o swyddfeydd Llywodraeth Cymru bellach o gwmpas Cymru, gyda chwch gwenyn ynddynt - neu'r tu allan iddynt. Credaf ei bod yn wych fod staff wedi ymgymryd â hyn mewn rôl wirfoddol. Gwn, yn sicr, fod y - . Rwy'n ceisio meddwl. Credaf mai i swyddfeydd Merthyr Tudful yr euthum, ac roedd swyddog addysg yno sydd bellach wedi dod yn arbenigwr ar ofalu am gychod gwenyn gan ei bod wedi gwirfoddoli i wneud hynny. Mae gennyf gryn ddiddordeb mewn toeau gwyrdd, fel y dywedais. Unwaith eto, mae gennym brosiect peilot, Natur Wyllt, sy'n cael ei ariannu gan ein cynllun LEADER Cymunedau Gwledig o'r rhaglen datblygu gwledig. Mae'n datblygu dull ar sail ardal - felly, gall fod yn bentref neu'n dref sy'n dod yn ardal sy'n gyfeillgar i bryfed peillio. Gwn y bydd y cynllun peilot yn canolbwyntio ar Drefynwy yn etholaeth Nick Ramsay.
English: I was recently at the opening of a community garden in Wharf Road in Newport, Minister, which I think was a valuable example of how you turn waste ground into an area with flowers and bushes and plants generally that's a valuable contribution. But what I wanted to ask about really was: would you agree with me that, where we have areas of land that are very important for biodiversity and have protections - and I'm thinking of the Gwent levels, which has a number of sites of special scientific interest - we must look to how we can further protect those areas? The Gwent levels are home to the shrill carder bee, which is endangered, sadly, but home to many other pollinators and many other valuable wildlife and plants and flowers and ecosystems. So, would you join me in looking to provide further protection and perhaps consider making the Gwent levels an area of outstanding natural beauty?
Welsh: Yn ddiweddar, roeddwn mewn agoriad gardd gymunedol ar Wharf Road yng Nghasnewydd, Weinidog, ac roedd yn enghraifft wych, yn fy marn i, o sut rydych yn troi tir diffaith yn ardal gyda blodau a llwyni a phlanhigion yn gyffredinol sy'n gyfraniad gwerthfawr. Ond yr hyn roeddwn am ofyn amdano mewn gwirionedd oedd: a fyddech yn cytuno â mi, lle mae gennym ardaloedd o dir sy'n bwysig iawn i fioamrywiaeth ac sy'n cael eu hamddiffyn - ac rwy'n meddwl am wastadeddau Gwent, sy'n cynnwys nifer o safleoedd o ddiddordeb gwyddonol arbennig - fod yn rhaid inni edrych ar sut y gallwn amddiffyn yr ardaloedd hynny ymhellach? Mae gwastadeddau Gwent yn gartref i'r gardwenynen fain, sydd mewn perygl, yn anffodus, ond maent yn gartref i lawer o bryfed peillio eraill a llawer o fywyd gwyllt a phlanhigion a blodau gwerthfawr ac ecosystemau eraill. Felly, a wnewch chi ymuno â mi i geisio darparu amddiffyniad pellach ac efallai ystyried gwneud gwastadeddau Gwent yn ardal o harddwch naturiol eithriadol?
English: I am aware that there has been a request for the Gwent levels to be given more formal designation and protection as an area of outstanding natural beauty, and that's obviously being considered. But, I think that you make a very important point about wasteland. I suppose that the point that I was trying to make about us all monitoring pollinators and seeing what we can do in those areas is something that I think is - . You know, we need to make sure that - . Pollinators are our responsibility. We need to ensure that we all do that extra thing to make sure that they are sustainable.
Welsh: Rwy'n ymwybodol fod cais wedi'i wneud i ddynodi a diogelu gwastadeddau Gwent ar sail fwy ffurfiol fel ardal o harddwch naturiol eithriadol, ac yn amlwg, mae hynny'n cael ei ystyried. Ond credaf eich bod yn gwneud pwynt pwysig iawn am dir diffaith. Mae'n debyg fod y pwynt roeddwn yn ceisio'i wneud am bob un ohonom yn monitro pryfed peillio a gweld beth y gallwn ei wneud yn yr ardaloedd hynny yn rhywbeth y credaf sy'n - . Mae angen i ni sicrhau - . Ein cyfrifoldeb ni yw pryfed peillio. Mae angen i ni sicrhau bod pob un ohonom yn mynd gam ymhellach i sicrhau eu bod yn gynaliadwy.
English: 'Sustainable Farming and our Land' is underpinned by 400 pages of detailed scientific assessments, produced in collaboration with universities around the UK. However, until we have certainty on budgets from the UK Government, we cannot produce an impact assessment. Changes will not be introduced until an impact assessment has been completed.
Welsh: Mae 'Ffermio Cynaliadwy a'n Tir' wedi'i ategu gan 400 tudalen o asesiadau gwyddonol manwl, a gynhyrchwyd ar y cyd â phrifysgolion ledled y DU. Fodd bynnag, hyd nes y cawn sicrwydd ynghylch cyllidebau gan Lywodraeth y DU, ni allwn gynhyrchu asesiad effaith. Ni fydd unrhyw newidiadau'n cael eu cyflwyno hyd nes y bydd asesiad effaith wedi'i gwblhau.
