English: Thank you very much. At the outset, Plaid Cymru would like to bring a slightly different vision to the table - different to what is outlined in the Government's motion, or perhaps additional to what's included in the Government's motion, because we believe that we need to recognise that the planning system has a role to play in maintaining and creating viable communities as a means of securing the health and well-being of the people of Wales. We believe that the planning system in Wales should reflect the need for appropriate housing in the right places, in accordance with local need, and that the planning system should give a greater voice to communities in terms of developments in their areas. Also, the planning system should enable holistic planning at the appropriate level. In turning to the Government motion, placemaking - and I see that that's where the emphasis is, on placemaking - that can mean a number of different things to different people. What's important in our view is securing a balance in the planning system. We need more than warm words about the future well-being of people and communities to ensure that the system works in a way that delivers that. In order to deliver placemaking that improves the long-term well-being of people and communities, you need a balance in the planning system, between developers on the one hand and communities on the other. You also need a balance between giving guidance to local planning authorities at a national level and, on the other hand, securing a strong voice for our communities. This is true in all areas, but Plaid Cymru has taken this opportunity today to table an amendment that emphasises the role of the Welsh language and the position of the Welsh language within the planning regime. At the moment, there is a lack of guidance from the Welsh Government as to how the Welsh language should be dealt with within the planning system. There is an opportunity with the national development framework to show clear leadership in planning. From the point of view of the Welsh language, the new framework should include a clear statement on the importance and relevance of the Welsh language in delivering spatial planning. The Welsh language needs to be there at the top of the agenda in all policy areas so that it will be truly meaningful. If we are to safeguard and promote the Welsh language through the planning system, then we need to be aware that that isn't an easy issue for local authorities because there isn't much information or expertise available in this area. Joint strategic planning between local authorities is a means of sharing expertise and resources. The joint local development plan by Gwynedd and Môn, adopted in 2017, was contentious in certain aspects, but it does deliver a policy on a local housing market and it lists specific areas, usually where there's been major development in the past or where there's a high percentage of holiday accommodation, and in those areas there are planning conditions on new homes in order to restrict their occupation to people with strong local connections. The opinion of a number of planning experts is that this is an innovative policy and that good practice should be shared, as should the methodology and processes used by Gwynedd and Anglesey, with a view to rolling out this policy more broadly. Turning specifically to TAN 20, yes, there is a need to reform and amend TAN 20 as a matter of urgency, because it is unclear and, according to some experts, contradicts what is in the Planning (Wales) Act 2015. So, Plaid Cymru is calling on the Welsh Government to amend TAN 20 urgently in order to make it clear that assessments of the impact of individual applications on the Welsh language in specific circumstances need to be carried out and also to make it clear that it's possible for local authorities to carry out assessments of the impact of individual planning applications on the Welsh language on all occasions if they choose to do that. Finally, in discussing the Planning Inspectorate, and accepting that you may need some further persuasion in order to deliver this over the next few months - not this afternoon; I don't have time to persuade you this afternoon - the four nations of the UK do have separate legislation and policies for planning, and Scotland and Northern Ireland have systems that correspond to the England-and-Wales Planning Inspectorate. With planning legislation in Wales continuing to develop, I do think that it's time to create a separate planning inspectorate for Wales, so that the inspectorate can develop expertise - the kind of expertise that David Melding mentioned was necessary. If the system is changing, then the expertise needs to change too, and we could do that in a Wales-only planning system. I look forward to continuing this discussion over the next few months. Thank you.
Welsh: Diolch yn fawr iawn. Fe hoffai Plaid Cymru, ar y cychwyn, ddod â gweledigaeth ychydig yn wahanol i'r bwrdd - gwahanol i'r hyn sy'n cael ei amlinellu yng nghynnig y Llywodraeth, neu efallai yn ychwanegol at yr hyn sydd yng nghynnig y Llywodraeth, oherwydd mi ydym ni yn credu bod angen cydnabod fod gan y gyfundrefn gynllunio rôl i'w chwarae wrth gynnal a chreu cymunedau hyfyw fel ffordd o sicrhau iechyd a llesiant pobl Cymru. Rydym ni'n credu y dylai'r gyfundrefn gynllunio yng Nghymru adlewyrchu'r angen am dai addas yn y llefydd cywir, yn unol ag angen lleol, ac y dylai'r gyfundrefn gynllunio roi mwy o lais i gymunedau ynghylch datblygiadau yn eu hardaloedd. Hefyd, fe ddylai'r gyfundrefn gynllunio alluogi cynllunio holistaidd, ond hynny ar y lefel briodol. O droi at gynnig y Llywodraeth, gall creu lleoedd - ac rydw i'n gweld mai dyna ydy'r pwyslais, creu lleoedd - mi all hynny olygu nifer o wahanol bethau i wahanol bobl. Yr hyn sy'n bwysig, yn ein barn ni, ydy sicrhau cydbwysedd yn y system gynllunio. Mae angen mwy na dymuno'n dda ar gyfer llesiant hirdymor pobl a chymunedau i sicrhau bod system yn gweithredu mewn modd sy'n cyflawni hynny. Er mwyn creu lleoedd sy'n gwella llesiant hirdymor pobl a chymunedau, mae angen cydbwysedd yn y system gynllunio rhwng datblygwyr ar yr un llaw a chymunedau ar y llaw arall. Mae hefyd angen cydbwysedd rhwng darparu arweiniad ar gyfer awdurdodau cynllunio lleol ar lefel cenedlaethol ac, ar y llaw arall, sicrhau llais cryf ar gyfer cymunedau. Mae hyn yn wir ar gyfer pob maes, mae'n debyg, ond mae Plaid Cymru wedi cymryd y cyfle heddiw i roi gwelliannau gerbron sydd yn pwysleisio rôl y Gymraeg a safle'r Gymraeg o fewn y system gynllunio. Ar hyn o bryd, mae yna ddiffyg arweiniad gan Lywodraeth Cymru ynglŷn â sut dylid ymdrin â'r Gymraeg o fewn y gyfundrefn gynllunio. Mae yna gyfle efo'r fframwaith datblygu cenedlaethol i ddangos arweiniad clir yn y maes cynllunio. O safbwynt y Gymraeg, fe ddylai'r fframwaith newydd gynnwys datganiad clir ynghylch pwysigrwydd â pherthnasedd y Gymraeg wrth gyflawni cynllunio gofodol. Mae angen i'r Gymraeg fod yna reit ar dop yr agenda ym mhob maes polisi iddo fo fod yn wir ystyrlon. Os ydym ni'n amddiffyn a hybu'r Gymraeg drwy'r gyfundrefn gynllunio, mae angen bod yn ymwybodol nad ydy hynny'n fater hawdd ar gyfer awdurdodau lleol oherwydd nid oes yna lawer o wybodaeth nag arbenigedd yn y maes. Mae cynllunio strategol ar y cyd rhwng awdurdodau lleol yn ffordd o rannu arbenigedd a rhannu adnoddau. Mae cynllun datblygu lleol ar y cyd Gwynedd a Môn, a gafodd ei fabwysiadu yn 2017, ac mi oedd yn gynllun dadleuol mewn rhai agweddau, ond mae o'n cyflwyno polisi ynghylch tai marchnad leol, ac mae'r cynllun yn rhestru ardaloedd penodol, fel arfer lle cafwyd datblygu mawr yn y gorffennol neu mae yna ganran uchel o dai gwyliau, ac yn yr ardaloedd hynny mae amodau cynllunio ar dai newydd er mwyn cyfyngu eu meddiannaeth i bobl sydd â chysylltiad lleol penodol. Rŵan, barn nifer o ymarferwyr cynllunio yw bod hwn yn bolisi arloesol ac y dylid rhannu'r arferion da, y fethodoleg a'r prosesau a ddefnyddiodd Gwynedd a Môn, efo golwg i ledaenu'r polisi hwn yn ehangach. Gan droi at TAN 20 yn benodol, oes, mae angen diwygio nodyn cyngor technegol 20 ar fyrder achos ei fod o'n aneglur ac, yn ôl rhai arbenigwyr, yn gwrth-ddweud yr hyn sydd yn Neddf Cynllunio (Cymru) 2015. Felly, mae Plaid Cymru yn galw ar Lywodraeth Cymru i ddiwygio nodyn cyngor technegol 20 ar fyrder er mwyn ei gwneud hi'n glir fod angen cynnal asesiadau o effaith ceisiadau unigol ar y Gymraeg mewn amgylchiadau penodol a hefyd i'w gwneud yn gliriach bod modd i awdurdodau lleol gynnal asesiadau o effaith ceisiadau cynllunio unigol ar y Gymraeg bob tro os ydyn nhw yn dymuno gwneud hynny. Ac, yn olaf, i drafod yr Arolygiaeth Gynllunio, a derbyn efallai fod angen eich perswadio chi ymhellach, ac fe wnaf i geisio wneud hynny dros y misoedd nesaf yma - ddim y prynhawn yma; nid oes dim digon o amser i hynny - mae gan bedair gwlad y Deyrnas Gyfunol ddeddfwriaeth a pholisïau ar wahân ar gyfer cynllunio ac mae gan yr Alban a Gogledd Iwerddon eu systemau sy'n gyfystyr ag Arolygiaeth Gynllunio Cymru a Lloegr. Efo deddfwriaeth cynllunio Cymru yn parhau i ddatblygu, rydw i'n credu ei bod hi'n bryd creu arolygiaeth gynllunio ar wahân i Gymru, er mwyn i'r arolygiaeth feithrin arbenigedd - yr arbenigedd yr oedd David Melding yn sôn amdano, sydd ei hangen. Wel, os ydy'r system yn newid, mae angen i'r arbenigedd newid hefyd, ac mi fedrid gwneud hynny mewn system gynllunio Cymru yn unig. Rydw i'n edrych ymlaen at barhau'r drafodaeth yma dros y misoedd nesaf. Diolch.
