English: It's very important for Wales, I believe, that EU citizens living here continue to do so, and continue contributing to life in Wales, bringing their skills to our workforce and economy, enriching our culture and communities, taking a full part in life in Wales in all aspects. So, Counsel General, could you update us on the steps taken by Welsh Government to ensure that there is awareness of the settled status scheme, so that we do get a good level of applications from EU citizens in Wales, and hopefully the vast majority of them continue to live here in Wales and enrich our society in the way that they are?
Welsh: Credaf ei bod yn bwysig iawn i Gymru fod dinasyddion yr UE sy'n byw yma yn parhau i wneud hynny, ac yn parhau i gyfrannu at fywyd yng Nghymru, gan ddod â'u sgiliau i'n gweithlu a'n heconomi, cyfoethogi ein diwylliant a'n cymunedau, a chymryd rhan lawn ym mhob agwedd ar fywyd yng Nghymru. Felly, Gwnsler Cyffredinol, a allech roi'r wybodaeth ddiweddaraf i ni ar y camau a gymerwyd gan Lywodraeth Cymru i sicrhau y ceir ymwybyddiaeth o'r cynllun preswylio'n sefydlog, fel ein bod yn cael lefel dda o geisiadau gan ddinasyddion yr UE yng Nghymru, gan obeithio y bydd y rhan fwyaf ohonynt yn parhau i fyw yma yng Nghymru a chyfoethogi ein cymdeithas fel y maent yn ei wneud?
English: Will the Minister make a statement on how his economic programme will support areas such as Blaenau Gwent?
Welsh: A wnaiff y Gweinidog ddatganiad ar sut y bydd ei raglen economaidd yn cefnogi ardaloedd fel Blaenau Gwent?
English: As set out in our publication yesterday, we are committed -
Welsh: Fel y nodwyd yn ein cyhoeddiad ddoe, rydym wedi ymrwymo -
English: Sorry, Minister - this is your supplementary question, Alun Davies, to question 2.
Welsh: Mae'n ddrwg gennyf, Weinidog - dyma'ch cwestiwn atodol, Alun Davies, i gwestiwn 2.
English: Yes, I've just asked it.
Welsh: Ie, rwyf newydd ei ofyn.
English: No, you didn't, you asked question 3 on the order paper. You made a request for a supplementary question for question 2.
Welsh: Naddo, fe wnaethoch chi ofyn cwestiwn 3 ar y papur trefn. Gwnaethoch gais am gwestiwn atodol i gwestiwn 2.
English: I'm sorry. Will the Minister make a statement on the release of documents yesterday that showed that the UK Government has deliberately sought to keep information from the devolved administrations in terms of their plans for Brexit, and their plans for the internal market Bill?
Welsh: Mae'n ddrwg gennyf. A wnaiff y Gweinidog ddatganiad ar y dogfennau a gyhoeddwyd ddoe a oedd yn dangos bod Llywodraeth y DU wedi ceisio cadw gwybodaeth oddi wrth y gweinyddiaethau datganoledig yn fwriadol mewn perthynas â'u cynlluniau ar gyfer Brexit, a'u cynlluniau ar gyfer y Bil marchnad fewnol?
English: I thank the Member for that question. Behaviour such as withholding information from devolved administrations, in relation to the matter of preparedness on a question so significant as this, is fundamentally corrosive of the relationship of trust between Governments in the UK. What we have been able to say is that, in the area of preparation, joint working has been possible, and it has been effective, even if it has, at times, not been adequate. But where information is withheld, that causes the Welsh Government to have to revisit our level of assurance around the arrangements that have been put in place. And I was very disappointed, not least that yesterday I had a meeting with UK Government Ministers to describe food supply, and to see the information that was put in the public domain a matter of hours after that was particularly disappointing. I've asked for an urgent meeting with Michael Gove, so that I can understand what's gone on here, and what other information we may not be having access to. What this suggests is that, where there is a policy or political difference between the governments in the UK, we cannot rely on full information being made available. And I think the reference in the extract that we saw yesterday to the internal market Bill just tells us, I think, how toxic that Bill is in terms of its impact on the relationship between Governments across the UK.
Welsh: Diolch i'r Aelod am ei gwestiwn. Mae ymddygiad fel cadw gwybodaeth oddi wrth y gweinyddiaethau datganoledig, mewn perthynas â pharodrwydd ar gwestiwn mor bwysig â hwn, yn niweidiol dros ben i'r berthynas o ymddiriedaeth rhwng Llywodraethau'r DU. Yr hyn rydym wedi gallu ei ddweud yw, ym maes parodrwydd, fod gweithio ar y cyd wedi bod yn bosibl, ac mae wedi bod yn effeithiol, hyd yn oed os nad yw wedi bod yn ddigonol ar brydiau. Ond lle caiff gwybodaeth ei chadw oddi wrthym, mae hynny'n peri i Lywodraeth Cymru orfod ailystyried ein lefel o sicrwydd ynghylch y trefniadau sydd wedi'u rhoi ar waith. Ac roeddwn yn siomedig iawn, yn enwedig a minnau wedi cael cyfarfod â Gweinidogion Llywodraeth y DU ddoe i drafod y cyflenwad bwyd, ac roedd gweld bod y wybodaeth wedi'i gwneud yn gyhoeddus ychydig oriau ar ôl hynny yn arbennig o siomedig. Rwyf wedi gofyn am gyfarfod brys gyda Michael Gove, er mwyn i mi allu deall beth sydd wedi digwydd yma, a pha wybodaeth arall nad ydym yn cael mynediad ati o bosibl. Lle ceir gwahaniaeth polisi neu wahaniaeth gwleidyddol rhwng llywodraethau'r DU, awgryma hyn na allwn ddibynnu arnynt i ddarparu'r holl wybodaeth. A chredaf fod y cyfeiriad yn y darn a welsom ddoe at y Bil marchnad fewnol yn dweud wrthym pa mor wenwynig yw'r Bil hwnnw o ran ei effaith ar y berthynas rhwng y Llywodraethau ledled y DU.
English: Minister, clearly, we had the Road Haulage Association before the External Affairs and Additional Legislation Committee last week, and one of their concerns was, not for themselves - they said they'd get things sorted out during the first two months of next year - but the concerns of clients, and the paperwork from customs issues in relation to Her Majesty's Revenue and Customs and border controls. They're deeply worried that there's not enough preparation being made to ensure that those clients are in a position to get that done in time, because they clearly stated that lorries would not be leaving unless they had the documentation ready. What discussions are you having with the UK Government, and particularly with HMRC, to ensure that the systems are in place to ensure that businesses in Wales are able to undertake the proper procedures and get the paperwork done, so that all their goods can travel to Europe without any delays whatsoever?
Welsh: Weinidog, yn amlwg, bu'r Gymdeithas Cludo Nwyddau gerbron y Pwyllgor Materion Allanol a Deddfwriaeth Ychwanegol yr wythnos diwethaf, ac roedd un o'u pryderon yn ymwneud, nid â'u hunain - dywedasant y byddent yn cael trefn ar bethau yn ystod deufis cyntaf y flwyddyn nesaf - ond pryderon cleientiaid, a'r gwaith papur yn sgil materion tollau mewn perthynas â Chyllid a Thollau Ei Mawrhydi a rheoli ffiniau. Maent yn bryderus iawn nad oes digon o baratoi yn digwydd i sicrhau bod y cleientiaid mewn sefyllfa i wneud hynny mewn pryd, gan iddynt ddweud yn glir na fyddai lorïau'n gadael oni bai fod y ddogfennaeth yn barod ganddynt. Pa drafodaethau rydych yn eu cael gyda Llywodraeth y DU, ac yn enwedig gyda CThEM, i sicrhau bod y systemau ar waith i sicrhau bod busnesau yng Nghymru yn gallu cyflawni'r gweithdrefnau priodol a gwneud y gwaith papur, fel y gall eu holl nwyddau deithio i Ewrop heb unrhyw oedi o gwbl?
English: Well, subject to the concerns that I have just articulated more broadly, the level of engagement in relation to haulier preparedness and business preparedness more broadly hasn't been what it needs to be. There is a very practical set of interventions that will have a very real effect on routes to our ports, if freight operators are not able to arrive there with the level of preparation that's required. There will be a significant potential logistical knock-on effect to that. And as you say, as the Member says, there is a much broader ripple effect in terms of the preparedness of suppliers and businesses across the UK, and it remains the case that our confidence that that level of preparation amongst businesses is being undertaken is very low. That isn't a criticism of those businesses. Many of them are facing incredible pressures as a consequence of the response to COVID and, bluntly, even though we want to raise awareness that there is a need to prepare, nobody at this point can articulate exactly what's required in order to meet those new arrangements. And so that is exactly why there needs to be an urgent clarification around those requirements and stepped-up engagement, both with hauliers, but also enabling businesses to make those preparations in a sensible and pragmatic way, as the Member suggests.
Welsh: Wel, yn amodol ar y pryderon a amlinellais yn fwy cyffredinol, nid yw lefel yr ymgysylltu mewn perthynas â pharodrwydd cwmnïau cludo nwyddau a pharodrwydd busnes yn fwy cyffredinol yn ddigonol. Mae set ymarferol iawn o ymyriadau yn mynd i gael effaith real iawn ar lwybrau i'n porthladdoedd, os na all gweithredwyr cludo nwyddau gyrraedd yno gyda'r lefel o barodrwydd sy'n ofynnol. Mae posibilrwydd y bydd hynny'n cael sgil effaith logistaidd sylweddol. Ac fel y dywedwch, fel y dywed yr Aelod, mae sgil effaith fwy o lawer o ran parodrwydd cyflenwyr a busnesau ledled y DU, ac mae'n dal yn wir nad oes gennym lawer iawn o hyder fod y lefel honno o baratoi'n digwydd ymhlith busnesau. Nid beirniadaeth o'r busnesau mo hynny. Mae llawer ohonynt yn wynebu pwysau aruthrol o ganlyniad i'r ymateb i COVID, ac a dweud y gwir, er ein bod am godi ymwybyddiaeth fod angen paratoi, ni all unrhyw un, ar hyn o bryd, fynegi beth yn union sy'n ofynnol er mwyn bodloni'r trefniadau newydd hynny. Ac felly, dyna'n union pam fod angen eglurhad ynghylch y gofynion hynny ar frys a mwy o ymgysylltu, gyda chwmnïau cludo nwyddau, ond gan alluogi busnesau hefyd i wneud y paratoadau hynny mewn ffordd synhwyrol a phragmatig, fel yr awgryma'r Aelod.
English: Diolch yn fawr, Llywydd. Minister, the Welsh Government has rightly criticised the internal market Bill as an enormous power grab, which you say you will oppose every step of the way. You will be aware that Plaid Cymru MPs laid an amendment to the Bill at Westminster, which would have protected the devolution settlement by preventing the Bill from coming into force unless the devolved legislatures gave their consent. Now, despite the cross-party support of the SNP, Liberal Democrats and Greens, Labour MPs decided to abstain. Now, do you agree that Labour MPs did Wales a great disservice by failing to back an amendment that was fully consistent with the Labour Welsh Government's policy? Do you also agree that it was a missed opportunity to display a strong cross-party stance in defence of devolution? And can you explain how this fits with the stated Labour Party position of opposing the Bill every step of the way?
Welsh: Diolch yn fawr, Lywydd. Weinidog, mae Llywodraeth Cymru, yn gwbl deg, wedi beirniadu'r Bil marchnad fewnol fel enghraifft amlwg o gipio grym, a dywedwch y byddwch yn gwrthwynebu hynny bob cam o'r ffordd. Fe fyddwch yn ymwybodol fod ASau Plaid Cymru wedi cynnig gwelliant i'r Bil yn San Steffan a fyddai wedi diogelu'r setliad datganoli drwy atal y Bil rhag dod i rym oni bai fod y deddfwrfeydd datganoledig yn rhoi eu cydsyniad. Nawr, er gwaethaf cefnogaeth drawsbleidiol yr SNP, y Democratiaid Rhyddfrydol a'r Blaid Werdd, penderfynodd ASau Llafur ymatal. Nawr, a ydych yn cytuno bod ASau Llafur wedi gwneud anghymwynas fawr â Chymru drwy fethu cefnogi gwelliant a oedd yn gwbl gyson â pholisi Llywodraeth Lafur Cymru? A ydych hefyd yn cytuno eu bod wedi colli cyfle i wneud safiad trawsbleidiol cryf i amddiffyn datganoli? Ac a allwch egluro sut y mae hyn yn cyd-fynd â safbwynt datganedig y Blaid Lafur y byddent yn gwrthwynebu'r Bil bob cam o'r ffordd?
English: There are certainly examples, Llywydd, of amendments put forward by the Labour Party to defend devolution, which Plaid Cymru haven't supported in Parliament. I would urge the Member that, at this point, we should be looking for ways of working together. We have a very productive relationship with the Scottish National Party in Scotland. It is a mature and collaborative relationship that acknowledges that Governments of different political colours can work together where they have a common interest. I hope, at some point, that we can persuade Plaid Cymru to have the same kind of relationship with us in Wales.
Welsh: Yn sicr, Lywydd, ceir enghreifftiau o welliannau a gyflwynwyd gan y Blaid Lafur i amddiffyn datganoli nad yw Plaid Cymru wedi eu cefnogi yn Senedd y DU. Byddwn yn annog yr Aelod y dylem fod yn chwilio am ffyrdd o weithio gyda'n gilydd ar y pwynt hwn. Mae gennym berthynas gynhyrchiol iawn â Phlaid Genedlaethol yr Alban. Mae'n berthynas aeddfed a chydweithredol sy'n cydnabod y gall Llywodraethau o wahanol liwiau gwleidyddol weithio gyda'i gilydd pan fo ganddynt ddiddordeb cyffredin. Rwy'n gobeithio, ar ryw bwynt, y gallwn berswadio Plaid Cymru i gael yr un math o berthynas gyda ni yng Nghymru.
English: Of course, the Bill increases the likelihood of a 'no deal' Brexit. Business leaders are this week again warning of the risks of a 'no deal' on already fragile businesses currently suffering the impacts of the pandemic. So, what assessments, therefore, have you undertaken in terms of the multiple threats facing businesses in Wales in the event of a 'no deal'? And do you not agree that that analysis should be brought to this Chamber as a matter of urgency?
Welsh: Wrth gwrs, mae'r Bil yn cynyddu'r tebygolrwydd o Brexit heb gytundeb. Yr wythnos hon, mae arweinwyr busnes yn rhybuddio eto am beryglon 'dim cytundeb' i fusnesau sydd eisoes yn fregus ac yn dioddef effeithiau'r pandemig ar hyn o bryd. Felly, pa asesiadau a wnaethoch o'r bygythiadau niferus sy'n wynebu busnesau yng Nghymru pe baem yn cael Brexit heb gytundeb? Ac onid ydych yn cytuno y dylid dod â'r dadansoddiad hwnnw i'r Siambr hon ar fyrder?
English: Well, the Member will be aware that we have consistently modelled the impact on the Welsh economy and Welsh businesses of the range of scenarios that we may face, and there is a significant amount of evidence-based analysis in the public domain through the hands of the Welsh Government. At this point in time, as he will have heard me say to David Rees earlier, we are anxious to make sure that businesses in Wales are alert, amongst the range of other pressures that they face at the moment, to the need to prepare for the end of the transition period. We continue to keep the Brexit portal updated. We continue to make funding available to support businesses. The most recent iteration of the ERF has an eye on both COVID and Brexit preparedness, because these things needs to be looked at in the round, as I know the Member agrees. The task at this point is to try and guide businesses towards that, and as the picture becomes clearer - and I know that you will share my regrets that we are not able to provide a clearer picture at this point - businesses will have a better chance, as it were, to be able to make those preparations, but none of us should underestimate the scale of that challenge and the scale of the burden that imposes on businesses right across Wales.
Welsh: Wel, bydd yr Aelod yn ymwybodol ein bod wedi modelu effaith yr ystod o senarios y gallem eu hwynebu ar economi Cymru a busnesau Cymru yn gyson, ac mae cryn dipyn o ddadansoddiadau'n seiliedig ar dystiolaeth wedi'u cyhoeddi gan Lywodraeth Cymru. Ar hyn o bryd, fel y bydd wedi fy nghlywed yn dweud wrth David Rees yn gynharach, rydym yn awyddus i sicrhau bod busnesau yng Nghymru yn ymwybodol, ymhlith yr ystod o bwysau eraill y maent yn eu hwynebu ar hyn o bryd, o'r angen i baratoi ar gyfer diwedd y cyfnod pontio. Rydym yn parhau i ddiweddaru'r porth Brexit. Rydym yn parhau i sicrhau bod cyllid ar gael i gefnogi busnesau. Mae iteriad diweddaraf y gronfa cadernid economaidd yn cadw llygad ar COVID yn ogystal â pharodrwydd ar gyfer Brexit, gan fod angen ystyried pob agwedd ar y pethau hyn, fel y gwn fod yr Aelod yn cytuno. Y dasg ar hyn o bryd yw ceisio tywys busnesau tuag at hynny, ac wrth i'r darlun ddod yn gliriach - a gwn y byddwch yn rhannu fy siom na allwn ddarparu darlun cliriach ar hyn o bryd - bydd gan fusnesau well gobaith, fel petai, o allu gwneud y paratoadau hynny, ond ni ddylai unrhyw un ohonom danbrisio maint yr her honno a maint y baich y mae'n ei roi ar fusnesau ledled Cymru.
English: Dai Lloyd, can you restart the question, please? Sorry, we weren't able to hear you via your Zoom connection. So, just try again and we'll see where we get to.
Welsh: Dai Lloyd, a allwch ailddechrau'r cwestiwn, os gwelwch yn dda? Mae'n ddrwg gennyf, nid oeddem yn gallu eich clywed drwy eich cysylltiad Zoom. Felly, rhowch gynnig arni eto a chawn weld lle rydym yn cyrraedd.
English: I apologise, Llywydd. I'm naturally softly spoken, plainly. [ Laughter. ] The British Medical Association have this week warned that a 'no deal' Brexit will have a potentially catastrophic impact on the NHS, with clear concerns around supply of pharmaceuticals, medical devices and protective equipment. We know that the Welsh Government have built up a Brexit warehouse of medical supplies and that these supplies have been utilised as part of the COVID response. Now, earlier this year, the pharmaceutical industry warned that some supplies had been completely used up. What assurances can you therefore give around the availability levels of medicines in the Brexit warehouse, given that we are potentially only a few months away from a potential 'no deal' Brexit?
Welsh: Ymddiheuriadau, Lywydd. Rwy'n siarad yn dawel yn naturiol, yn amlwg. [ Chwerthin.] Yr wythnos hon, mae Cymdeithas Feddygol Prydain wedi rhybuddio y gallai Brexit heb gytundeb effeithio'n drychinebus ar y GIG, gyda phryderon amlwg ynghylch y cyflenwad o gynhyrchion fferyllol, dyfeisiau meddygol a chyfarpar diogelu. Gwyddom fod Llywodraeth Cymru wedi adeiladu warws Brexit o gyflenwadau meddygol, a bod y cyflenwadau hyn wedi cael eu defnyddio fel rhan o'r ymateb i COVID. Nawr, yn gynharach eleni, rhybuddiodd y diwydiant fferyllol fod rhai cyflenwadau wedi'u defnyddio i gyd. Pa sicrwydd y gallwch ei roi, felly, ynghylch lefelau argaeledd meddyginiaethau yn warws Brexit, o gofio y gallem wynebu Brexit heb gytundeb ymhen ychydig fisoedd?
English: I thank Dai Lloyd for raising this very, very important question in the Chamber today. This is obviously a key priority for us as a Government. And as with previous stages of preparation, some of the solutions are UK-wide and some of them are bespoke to Wales. So, in relation to medicines first, as he raises in his question, all four Governments in the UK are engaged in continuity of supply discussions. Parts of that are around express freight services, and parts of it are around supply disruption response. But there are additional steps that we are taking in Wales to give us additional assurance in relation to that, and some of that, as his question suggests, is about learning from the experience of COVID-19. In relation to medical supplies, whether that's medical devices or clinical consumables, for example - and this, by the way, relates both to the NHS and to parts of the social care sector, for reasons that he will understand - we are reviewing and replenishing the Welsh stock holdings of MDCC products. We are testing and refining the plans that we had in place at the end of last year in anticipation of leaving without any sort of deal at all. And we still, as his question implies, benefit very significantly from investment in the warehouse storage facility and IP5 near Newport, which continues to be able to help us in our preparation work.
Welsh: Diolch i Dai Lloyd am godi'r cwestiwn pwysig hwn yn y Siambr heddiw. Mae hyn yn amlwg yn flaenoriaeth allweddol i ni fel Llywodraeth. Ac fel gyda chamau paratoi blaenorol, mae rhai o'r atebion yn berthnasol i'r DU gyfan ac mae rhai ohonynt ar gyfer Cymru'n benodol. Felly, mewn perthynas â meddyginiaethau yn gyntaf, fel y cyfeiria atynt yn ei gwestiwn, mae pob un o bedair Llywodraeth y DU mewn trafodaethau ynghylch parhad cyflenwadau. Mae rhywfaint o hynny'n ymwneud â gwasanaethau cludo nwyddau'n gyflym, ac mae rhywfaint yn ymwneud ag ymateb i darfu ar gyflenwadau. Ond rydym yn cymryd camau ychwanegol yng Nghymru i roi sicrwydd ychwanegol i ni'n hunain mewn perthynas â hynny, ac mae rhywfaint o hynny, fel yr awgryma ei gwestiwn, yn ymwneud â dysgu o brofiad COVID-19. Mewn perthynas â chyflenwadau meddygol, boed yn ddyfeisiau meddygol neu ddefnyddiau traul clinigol, er enghraifft - ac mae hyn, gyda llaw, yn ymwneud â'r GIG yn ogystal â rhannau o'r sector gofal cymdeithasol, am resymau y bydd yn eu deall - rydym yn adolygu ac yn ailgyflenwi cyflenwadau Cymru o ddyfeisiau meddygol a defnyddiau traul clinigol. Rydym yn profi ac yn mireinio'r cynlluniau a oedd gennym ar waith ddiwedd y llynedd rhag ofn y byddem yn gadael heb unrhyw fath o gytundeb. Ac fel yr awgryma ei gwestiwn, rydym yn dal i elwa'n sylweddol iawn o fuddsoddiad yn y cyfleuster warws storio ac IP5 ger Casnewydd, sy'n parhau i allu rhoi cymorth i ni gyda'n gwaith paratoi.
English: Diolch, Llywydd. I want to ask some questions in relation to the Minister's responsibility for COVID recovery. What consideration has the Minister given to older people as part of the Welsh Government's build back better project?
Welsh: Diolch, Lywydd. Rwyf am ofyn rhai cwestiynau mewn perthynas â chyfrifoldeb y Gweinidog dros yr adferiad wedi COVID. Pa ystyriaeth y mae'r Gweinidog wedi'i rhoi i bobl hŷn fel rhan o brosiect Llywodraeth Cymru i ailadeiladu'n ôl yn well?
English: We recognise the impact on various groups in Wales has been unequal of the COVID experience. Older people are amongst those and we will frame our response in light of that to be able to make sure that older people across Wales get the support they need in our response.
Welsh: Rydym yn cydnabod bod effaith COVID ar grwpiau amrywiol yng Nghymru wedi bod yn anghyfartal. Mae pobl hŷn ymhlith y rheini a byddwn yn fframio ein hymateb yng ngoleuni hynny er mwyn gallu sicrhau bod pobl hŷn ledled Cymru yn cael y gefnogaeth sydd ei hangen arnynt yn ein hymateb.
