English: I'd like to thank the Minister for the statement this afternoon, but I also want to congratulate him on the work he's done since taking over responsibility for this portfolio and as chair of the Valleys taskforce. It's always difficult for a former Minister, of course, to ask questions of his replacement in Government, and I accept that, but I want to make the point of congratulating him on the work he's done over these last two years; I think it's testament to a real, deep commitment and vision. The work that he did particularly in ensuring a supply chain for personal protective equipment over the last year is testament to a values-based approach to politics that Members on all sides of this Chamber would do well to reflect upon, and, certainly, the work in supporting the co-operative in Ebbw Vale is something that is greatly appreciated, not only in the town but in the hospitals and care homes of Wales as well. I'd like to ask the Minister if he will, before dissolution, ensure that we are able to see the bookend, if you like, of this piece of work - that the targets and objectives that I published as a Minister at the time are reflected upon. The Conservative Member for south-east Wales was wrong in her assumptions about those targets and objectives - they were actually built upon a very long and in-depth consversation with a number of different organisations within the Valleys, and those targets and objectives were set together. They weren't imposed upon the Valleys, they came from the Valleys, and I think that's a really important point that was lost there. But it is important for the trust in Government that we're able to say, 'We said we'd do this, and this is what we delivered.' The other issue I'd like to raise -
Welsh: Hoffwn ddiolch i'r Gweinidog am y datganiad y prynhawn yma, ond rwyf hefyd eisiau ei longyfarch ar y gwaith y mae wedi'i wneud ers cymryd cyfrifoldeb am y portffolio hwn ac fel cadeirydd tasglu'r Cymoedd. Mae bob amser yn anodd i gyn-Weinidog, wrth gwrs, ofyn cwestiynau i'r un a gymerodd ei le yn y Llywodraeth, ac rwy'n derbyn hynny, ond rwyf eisiau ei longyfarch ar y gwaith y mae wedi'i wneud dros y ddwy flynedd ddiwethaf; rwy'n credu bod hynny yn dyst i ymrwymiad gwirioneddol ddwfn a gweledigaeth. Mae'r gwaith a wnaeth yn arbennig i sicrhau cadwyn gyflenwi ar gyfer cyfarpar diogelu personol dros y flwyddyn ddiwethaf yn dyst i ymagwedd seiliedig ar werthoedd tuag at wleidyddiaeth y byddai'n werth i Aelodau ar bob ochr i'r Siambr hon fyfyrio arni, ac, yn sicr, mae'r gwaith o gefnogi'r fenter gydweithredol yng Nglynebwy yn rhywbeth a werthfawrogir yn fawr, nid yn unig yn y dref ond yn ysbytai a chartrefi gofal Cymru hefyd. Hoffwn ofyn i'r Gweinidog a wnaiff, cyn diddymiad y Senedd, sicrhau ein bod yn gallu gweld pendraw, os mynnwch chi, y darn hwn o waith - bod y targedau a'r amcanion a gyhoeddais pan oeddwn yn Weinidog ar y pryd yn cael eu hystyried. Roedd yr Aelod Ceidwadol dros y de-ddwyrain yn anghywir yn ei thybiaethau ynghylch y targedau a'r amcanion hynny - roedden nhw'n deillio mewn gwirionedd o sgyrsiau hir a manwl iawn gyda nifer o wahanol sefydliadau yn y Cymoedd, a gosodwyd y targedau a'r amcanion hynny at ei gilydd. Ni chawsant eu gorfodi ar y Cymoedd, daethant o'r Cymoedd, ac rwy'n credu bod hwnnw'n bwynt pwysig iawn a gollwyd. Ond mae'n bwysig o ran ymddiried yn y Llywodraeth ein bod yn gallu dweud, 'Fe wnaethom ni ddweud y byddem yn gwneud hyn, a dyma a gyflawnwyd gennym ni.' Y mater arall yr hoffwn ei godi -
