English: Diolch, Simon Thomas, for those questions. I refute allegations that there's been a lull in our TB eradication programme since we announced we wouldn't be vaccinating badgers. That's just one part of the programme; we have other measures, and that includes the animal testing regime. We have been testing much harder than we were. We've got Cymorth TB. We've had informed purchasing, albeit, obviously, a voluntary scheme. But I do think that that is just one part of our scheme. In answer to your question regarding the governance of the boards being looked at, there are several aspects to that. If we're going to have this regionalisation, obviously, we are out to consultation now - it's a 12-week consultation; it ends on 10 January - and there are a lot of things that we haven't got the answers to yet, and I do really want to consider the responses we get. We need to look at the boards because the boards are based on regions now that wouldn't concur with the regions that we would have going forward. So, I think we need to look at that. I also want to look at the gender balance of our boards, and I'm sure you won't be surprised to hear me say that. In relation to the Northern Ireland - . And I'm very pleased you welcome making it very clear that there won't be an England-style cull, but I have looked at the Northern Ireland pilot very, very closely over the summer. What I want to see are those bespoke action plans brought forward. We're not going to consult on that - that will happen - and it's really important that we have - . You know, no-one's got the answer. We really need to work together. I don't have the answers standing here; farmers don't have the answers. It's really important that we work together. So, what I want to see are those bespoke action plans drawn up with the farmer, with their vets, with our vets if necessary, and with the Animal and Plant Health Agency to make sure that we are dealing with that. It has proven quite difficult, I think. We have little understanding about how TB spreads between cattle and badgers, so it's very important that farmers understand the badger activity on their farms, and that we all work together in relation to that. And you're right, it is about the health and welfare of the badger population also. So, I have asked, as I say, officials to look at that very closely. In relation to trade, I know that there have been concerns mentioned about trade. It's not just Wales that has TB; there are other parts of the EU where bovine TB is present. I think it's really important that we maintain our reputation for absolutely the highest animal health and welfare standards. I was in SIAL in Paris yesterday, where it was very clear that people accepted that our produce was of absolutely the highest quality. It was mentioned to me several times that people understand that Wales has that very high animal health and welfare standard. In relation to capping compensation, I've thought about that again very carefully. It's out to consultation, as I say, and if people feel that - . As you say, it is a large nut and maybe it is a large sledgehammer, but I think we do need to look at that. We have to understand that, going forward, coming out of the EU, 10 per cent of our TB eradication programme budget is from the EU - it's about £2 million to £3 million that we're not going to have. So, we need to look at ways of saving money. I will, again, look very closely at the consultation responses we have in relation to the compensation. I understand farmers' concerns. It was actually a farmer himself who said to me, 'We can insure our cattle if we feel they're of a much higher value.' We can look at that, as I say, when we have the responses to the consultation. Informed purchasing, again, that would be part of the consultation, but I think that there is a great deal of work that we can do to help farmers mitigate the risk of buying infected cattle. And it's not just working with farmers, it's working with markets, and I know we've encouraged markets to put boards up when cattle are being sold, to have information around that. But, we need to look at cross-border. Obviously, if it has an impact across the border, I'm very happy to look at that, coming out of the consultation.
Welsh: Diolch, Simon Thomas, am y cwestiynau hynny. Rwy'n gwrthod yr honiadau y bu diffyg gweithgarwch yn ein rhaglen dileu TB ers i ni gyhoeddi na fyddem ni'n brechu moch daear. Dim ond un rhan o'r rhaglen yw hynny; mae gennym fesurau eraill, ac mae hynny'n cynnwys y gyfundrefn profi anifeiliaid. Rydym ni wedi bod yn profi llawer mwy nag yr oeddem ni. Mae gennym ni'r pecyn Cymorth TB. Rydym wedi cael prynu doeth, er bod hwnnw, yn amlwg, yn gynllun gwirfoddol. Ond rwyf yn credu mai dim ond un rhan o'n cynllun yw hynny. I ateb eich cwestiwn ynglŷn â phwyso a mesur y modd y caiff y byrddau eu llywodraethu, ceir nifer o agweddau ar hynny. Os ydym ni am weithredu'r dull rhanbarthol hwn, yn amlwg, mae ymgynghoriad yn cael ei gynnal yn awr - ymgynghoriad 12 wythnos ydyw; mae'n dod i ben ar 10 Ionawr - a cheir llawer o bethau nad ydym wedi cael yr atebion iddynt eto, ac rwyf wirioneddol yn dymuno ystyried yr ymatebion a gawn. Mae angen i ni asesu'r byrddau gan fod y byrddau bellach yn seiliedig ar ranbarthau na fyddant yn cyd-fynd â'r rhanbarthau y byddai gennym wrth symud ymlaen. Felly, rwy'n credu bod angen inni edrych ar hynny. Rwyf hefyd yn awyddus i edrych ar y cydbwysedd rhwng y rhywiau ar ein byrddau, ac rwy'n siŵr na fyddwch chi'n synnu wrth fy nghlywed i'n dweud hynny. Mewn cysylltiad â Gogledd Iwerddon-. Ac rwy'n falch iawn eich bod chi'n croesawu'r datganiad eglur na fydd difa'n digwydd, fel sy'n digwydd yn Lloegr, ond rwyf wedi ystyried cynllun peilot Gogledd Iwerddon yn fanwl iawn, iawn dros yr haf. Yr hyn yr wyf yn dymuno ei weld yw'r cynlluniau gweithredu pwrpasol hynny yn cael eu cyflwyno. Nid ydym am ymgynghori ar hynny-bydd hynny yn digwydd-ac mae'n bwysig fod gennym-. Wyddoch chi, nid oes gan neb yr ateb. Mae gwir angen inni weithio gyda'n gilydd. Nid oes gennyf yr atebion o'm blaen i yma; nid oes gan ffermwyr yr atebion. Mae'n bwysig iawn ein bod yn gweithio gyda'n gilydd. Felly, yr hyn yr wyf yn dymuno ei weld yw'r cynlluniau gweithredu pwrpasol hynny yn cael eu llunio gyda'r ffermwr, gyda'u milfeddygon, gyda'n milfeddygon ni os oes angen, a chyda'r Asiantaeth Iechyd Anifeiliaid a Phlanhigion i wneud yn siŵr ein bod yn mynd i'r afael â hynny. Mae wedi bod yn eithaf anodd, yn fy marn i. Ychydig o ddealltwriaeth sydd gennym ynglŷn â sut y mae TB yn lledaenu rhwng gwartheg a moch daear, felly mae'n bwysig iawn bod ffermwyr yn deall gweithgarwch y moch daear ar eu ffermydd, a'n bod ni i gyd yn gweithio gyda'i gilydd o ran hynny. Ac rydych chi'n iawn, mae'n ymwneud ag iechyd a lles poblogaeth y moch daear hefyd. Felly, rwyf wedi gofyn, fel y dywedais, i swyddogion ystyried hynny'n agos iawn. O ran masnach, gwn fod pryderon wedi'u crybwyll ynglŷn â masnach. Nid dim ond Cymru sydd â TB; mae TB buchol yn bresennol yn rhannau eraill o'r UE. Rwy'n credu ei bod yn bwysig iawn ein bod ni'n cadw ein henw da am y safonau uchaf posibl o ran iechyd a lles anifeiliaid. Roeddwn i yn SIAL ym Mharis ddoe, lle'r oedd yn glir iawn bod pobl yn derbyn heb os bod ein cynnyrch ni o'r safon uchaf. Soniwyd wrthyf sawl gwaith fod pobl yn deall bod gan Gymru safon uchel iawn mewn cysylltiad ag iechyd a lles anifeiliaid. Ynglŷn â gosod cap ar iawndal, rwyf wedi ystyried hynny eto yn ofalus iawn. Mae'n destun ymgynghoriad, fel y dywedais, ac os yw pobl yn teimlo bod - . Fel yr ydych chi'n dweud, mae'n broblem fawr ac efallai ei fod yn ateb eithafol, ond rwy'n credu bod angen i ni edrych ar hynny. Mae'n rhaid i ni ddeall, wrth symud ymlaen, a gadael yr UE, fod 10 y cant o gyllideb y rhaglen dileu TB yn dod o'r UE - sef rhwng £2 filiwn i £3 miliwn yr ydym yn mynd i'w golli. Felly, mae angen inni ystyried ffyrdd o arbed arian. Byddaf, eto, yn ystyried yn fanwl iawn yr ymatebion i'r ymgynghoriad sydd gennym yn ymwneud â'r iawndal. Rwy'n deall pryderon ffermwyr. Ffermwr mewn gwirionedd a ddywedodd wrthyf, 'Gallwn ni yswirio ein gwartheg os ydym ni o'r farn eu bod o werth llawer uwch.' Gallwn bwyso a mesur hynny, fel y dywedais, pan fydd gennym yr ymatebion i'r ymgynghoriad. Bydd prynu doeth, eto, yn rhan o'r ymgynghoriad, ond rwy'n credu bod llawer iawn o waith y gallwn ni ei wneud i helpu ffermwyr i liniaru'r risg o brynu gwartheg wedi'u heintio. Ac nid yw'n ymwneud â gweithio gyda ffermwyr yn unig, mae'n ymwneud â gweithio gyda marchnadoedd, a gwn ein bod wedi annog marchnadoedd i osod byrddau pan fo gwartheg yn cael eu gwerthu, i gael gwybodaeth ynglŷn â hynny. Ond, mae angen inni edrych ar yr elfen drawsffiniol. Yn amlwg, os bydd yn cael effaith ar draws y ffin, rwy'n hapus iawn i bwyso a mesur hynny, ar ôl i'r ymgynghoriad ddod i ben.
