English: Well, the Member has been extremely strong in his view on this, and it is a matter that's not devolved, but I will seek to answer some of the questions that he poses. When the Parc prison was opened in Bridgend, in the council ward that I represented, it did not work well. It did not work well for its first few years. There were a number of serious incidents within the prison. It went through prison governors at the rate of knots. One prisoner escaped by hanging onto the underside of a lorry and was never found, and staff from Swansea and Cardiff had to be brought in to deal with unrest within the prison. That is something, clearly, that nobody wants to see. But he raises an important point, and it's this: if we get to the point where we are looking to devolve criminal justice, then we need to develop a Welsh penal policy. I've always argued that you can devolve the police separately, but if you take the courts, then you have the probation service, you have the prison service, you have sentencing policy, the Crown Prosecution Service - it all hangs together; it's all part of the justice system. It is time, I think, as he rightly points out, for us to start the debate on what a Welsh penal policy might look like if criminal justice is devolved. He makes the case for smaller prisons. I've got no reason to doubt what he is putting forward, but I think it's hugely important that he has started a debate on what Welsh policy would look like in the event of criminal justice being devolved.
Welsh: Wel, mae safbwyntiau'r Aelod ar hyn wedi bod yn gryf iawn, ac mae'n fater nad yw wedi ei ddatganoli, ond byddaf yn ceisio ateb rhai o'r cwestiynau y mae'n eu gofyn. Pan agorwyd carchar y Parc ym Mhen-y-bont ar Ogwr, yn y ward gyngor yr oeddwn i'n ei chynrychioli, nid oedd yn gweithio'n dda. Ni weithiodd yn dda am yr ychydig flynyddoedd cyntaf. Cafwyd nifer o ddigwyddiadau difrifol yn y carchar. Roedd y carchar yn newid llywodraethwr yn arbennig o aml. Llwyddodd un carcharor i ddianc trwy hongian o dan lori ac ni ddaethpwyd o hyd iddo byth, a bu'n rhaid dod â staff o Abertawe a Chaerdydd i mewn i ymdrin ag anniddigrwydd yn y carchar. Mae hynny'n rhywbeth, yn amlwg, nad oes neb eisiau ei weld. Ond mae e'n codi pwynt pwysig, sef hwn: os byddwn ni'n cyrraedd y pwynt lle'r ydym ni'n ystyried datganoli cyfiawnder troseddol, yna mae angen i ni ddatblygu polisi cosbi i Gymru. Rwyf i wedi dadlau erioed y gallwch chi ddatganoli'r heddlu ar wahân, ond os cymerwch chi'r llysoedd, yna mae gennych chi'r gwasanaeth prawf, mae gennych chi'r gwasanaeth carchardai, mae gennych chi bolisi dedfrydu, Gwasanaeth Erlyn y Goron - mae'r cwbl yn gysylltiedig â'i gilydd; mae'r cwbl yn rhan o'r system gyfiawnder. Mae'n amser, rwy'n credu, fel y mae ef yn ei nodi'n briodol, i ni ddechrau'r ddadl ar sut y gallai polisi cosbi Cymru edrych os bydd cyfiawnder troseddol yn cael ei ddatganoli. Mae'n dadlau'r achos dros garchardai llai. Nid oes gen i unrhyw reswm i amau'r hyn y mae'n ei gynnig, ond rwy'n credu ei bod hi'n hynod bwysig ei fod wedi cychwyn trafodaeth ar sut y byddai polisi Cymru yn edrych pe byddai cyfiawnder troseddol yn cael ei ddatganoli.
English: Item 2 on our agenda this afternoon is the business statement and announcement, and I call on the leader of the house, Julie James.
Welsh: Eitem 2 ar ein hagenda y prynhawn yma yw'r datganiad a chyhoeddiad busnes, a galwaf ar arweinydd y tŷ, Julie James.
English: Thank you, Deputy Presiding Officer. There are no changes to this week's business. Business for the next three weeks is shown on the business statement and announcement found amongst the meeting papers, which are available to Members electronically.
Welsh: Diolch ichi, Dirprwy Lywydd. Nid oes unrhyw newidiadau i fusnes yr wythnos hon. Dangosir busnes y tair wythnos nesaf ar y datganiad a chyhoeddiad busnes sydd i'w weld ymhlith papurau'r cyfarfod, sydd ar gael yn electronig i'r Aelodau.
English: Well, I'm not entirely certain what I was being asked, but the Cabinet Secretary was here to listen to the Member's constituency case load, and he's obviously in correspondence with the Cabinet Secretary, which, I imagine, will continue.
Welsh: Wel, nid wyf yn gwbl sicr beth yw'r cwestiwn a ofynnwyd i mi, ond roedd Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet yma i wrando ar lwyth achosion etholaeth yr Aelod, ac mae'n amlwg yn cyfathrebu ag Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet, a bydd hynny, rwy'n tybio, yn parhau.
English: Leader of the house, I would like to ask for a statement from the Cabinet Secretary for Economy and Transport on support for businesses affected by the proposed M4 relief road. I have been contacted by a manufacturing company in Newport that would suffer considerable and irrecoverable loss of business, as well as incurring relocation costs, due to the forced closure of their existing site in Newport. Although this company has been in contact with the Welsh Government since 2016, they are deeply frustrated about the lack of clarity with regard to the level of practical and financial support they can expect to receive to enable them to continue to operate in Wales. Leader of the house, could I ask you for a statement by the Cabinet Secretary on this matter as soon as possible? Thank you.
Welsh: Arweinydd y tŷ, hoffwn i ofyn am ddatganiad gan Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet dros yr Economi a Thrafnidiaeth ar gymorth i fusnesau yr effeithiwyd arnynt gan ffordd liniaru arfaethedig yr M4. Mae cwmni gweithgynhyrchu yng Nghasnewydd wedi cysylltu â mi gan ddweud y byddai'n dioddef colled sylweddol i'w fusnes na ellir ei hadennill, yn ogystal â mynd i gostau adleoli, oherwydd gorfod cau ei safle presennol yng Nghasnewydd. Er bod y cwmni hwn wedi bod yn cysylltu â Llywodraeth Cymru ers 2016, maen nhw'n teimlo rhwystredigaeth fawr ynghylch y diffyg eglurdeb o ran y lefel o gymorth ymarferol ac ariannol y gallant ddisgwyl ei derbyn i'w galluogi i barhau i weithredu yng Nghymru. Arweinydd y tŷ, a gaf i ofyn ichi am ddatganiad gan Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet ar y mater hwn cyn gynted â phosibl? Diolch.
English: Yes. The Cabinet Secretary has already said that there will be a debate on the floor of the house about the M4 and all of its ramifications as soon as the outcome of the public inquiry is known. So, I'm sure that that is an aspect - businesses displaced by the proposals, whatever they might be as a result of the public inquiry, I'm sure will form part of that debate.
Welsh: Ie. Mae Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet eisoes wedi dweud y bydd dadl ar lawr y tŷ ynglŷn â'r M4 a'r holl oblygiadau cyn gynted ag y byddwn yn gwybod canlyniad yr ymchwiliad cyhoeddus. Felly, rwy'n siŵr y bydd honno'n agwedd - busnesau a ddadleolir gan y cynigion, pa ganlyniadau bynnag a geir o'r ymchwiliad cyhoeddus, yr wyf yn siŵr y bydd rhan o'r ddadl honno.
English: I'd like to ask the leader of the house for a Government statement from the Cabinet Secretary for local government if possible, and, indeed, for further guidance on the obligations on local authorities under the Well-being of Future Generations (Wales) Act 2015. I'm sure the Cabinet Secretary will be aware that in our community the leisure centre at Pontllanfraith is under threat of closure. It's had a last-minute reprieve temporarily because of the hard work of local people campaigning to save that asset. It does enhance people's well-being. It's had record numbers of users in the last financial year, but the local authority, like every other, is caught in this position, due to the fiscal policies of the British state, of desperately trying to raise money, and they would like to sell off the land for the leisure centre in order to sell to developers to make money to pay for services. And Caerphilly council is now having an overall leisure and well-being review, and I think, as part of that review, having greater clarity on their obligation under the well-being Act would enhance that review, and would make it very clear to them their obligations, and, hopefully, will lead to an outcome where citizens can continue to enjoy the outstanding facilities at Pontllanfraith and elsewhere for the future.
Welsh: Hoffwn ofyn i arweinydd y tŷ am ddatganiad Llywodraeth gan Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet dros lywodraeth leol os yw'n bosibl, ac, yn wir, am arweiniad pellach ar y rhwymedigaethau ar awdurdodau lleol o dan Ddeddf Llesiant Cenedlaethau'r Dyfodol (Cymru) 2015. Rwy'n siŵr y bydd Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet yn ymwybodol bod y ganolfan hamdden yn ein cymuned ym Mhontllanfraith dan fygythiad o gau. Mae wedi'i harbed ar y funud olaf dros dro oherwydd gwaith caled y bobl leol sy'n ymgyrchu i gadw'r ased hwnnw. Mae yn gwella lles pobl. Y mae wedi cofnodi'r nifer mwyaf o ddefnyddwyr erioed yn ystod y flwyddyn ariannol ddiwethaf, ond mae'r awdurdod lleol, fel pob un arall, wedi'i ddal yn y sefyllfa hon, oherwydd polisïau cyllidol y wladwriaeth Brydeinig, o ymdrechu'n daer i godi arian, a byddent yn hoffi gwerthu tir y ganolfan hamdden a'i werthu i ddatblygwyr i wneud arian i dalu am wasanaethau. Ac mae cyngor Caerffili bellach yn cynnal adolygiad cyffredinol o hamdden a lles, ac rwy'n credu, yn rhan o'r adolygiad hwnnw, byddai cael mwy o eglurder ynghylch eu rhwymedigaeth o dan y Ddeddf llesiant yn gwella'r adolygiad hwnnw, ac yn datgan eu rhwymedigaethau iddynt yn glir iawn, a, gobeithio, yn arwain at ganlyniad lle gall dinasyddion barhau i fwynhau'r cyfleusterau rhagorol ym Mhontllanfraith ac mewn mannau eraill yn y dyfodol.
English: The Member makes a very important point. It's one of the very desperate effects of the austerity agenda overall, and although councils in Wales have been protected by this Government in a way that hasn't been possible for councils in England, nevertheless the austerity agenda bites hard. And it bites hardest on some of our hard-fought-for and much-loved community facilities. And that's happening right across Wales, and lots of councils are indeed struggling with that. And it's a real dilemma between supporting statutory services that councils must maintain and the so-called discretionary, but nevertheless absolutely essential, services that the Member points out. It's not for us to second-guess the individual decisions of different councils and so on, but I know that my Cabinet Secretary colleague is in constant dialogue with the Welsh Local Government Association and with individual councils about their well-being duties, and I'm sure that he'd be more than happy to write out again to them expressing the overarching strategic nature of their duties under the Act, although I would emphasise that individual decisions are very much a matter for the local democratic institution.
Welsh: Mae'r Aelod yn gwneud pwynt pwysig iawn. Mae'n un o effeithiau enbyd iawn yr agenda cyni yn gyffredinol, ac er bod cynghorau yng Nghymru wedi'u diogelu gan y Llywodraeth hon mewn ffordd na fu'n bosibl i gynghorau yn Lloegr, serch hynny, mae'r agenda cyni yn achosi cryn broblemau. Ac mae'n gwneud hynny fwyaf ar rai o'n cyfleusterau cymunedol agosaf at ein calonnau y mae pobl wedi brwydro'n galed i'w cael. Ac mae hynny'n digwydd ledled Cymru gyfan, ac mae llawer o gynghorau yn wir yn gweld hynny'n anodd. Ac mae'n benbleth wirioneddol rhwng cefnogi gwasanaethau statudol y mae'n rhaid i gynghorau eu cynnal a'r gwasanaethau dewisol fel y'u gelwir, ond rhai sy'n gwbl hanfodol serch hynny, fel y mae'r Aelod yn ei nodi. Nid ein lle ni yw rhagweld penderfyniadau unigol y gwahanol gynghorau ac ati, ond gwn fod fy nghyd Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet yn trafod yn gyson â Chymdeithas Llywodraeth Leol Cymru ac â chynghorau unigol ynghylch eu dyletswyddau llesiant, ac rwy'n siŵr y byddai'n fwy na pharod i ysgrifennu atynt eto yn mynegi natur strategol trosfwaol eu dyletswyddau o dan y Ddeddf, er y byddwn i'n pwysleisio bod penderfyniadau unigol yn sicr yn fater i'r sefydliad democrataidd lleol.
English: May I thank the leader of the house for her statement and pursue an issue that is important these days? Air pollution continues to be a problem facing many people in my region, as you will know, coming from Swansea yourself. In Hafod in Swansea, in Morriston and in Port Talbot, air pollution causes ill health and unnecessary deaths. Now, when ClientEarth took this Government to court, it was admitted that the Government's lack of action on air pollution was unlawful. We are now waiting for the clean air plan for Wales and the clean air zones to be launched. Can I ask you, therefore, for a debate and an update as soon as possible on this plan, and ask when this Assembly can expect further information on the clean air zones? Thank you.
Welsh: A allaf ddiolch i arweinydd y tŷ am ei datganiad, a mynd ar ôl agwedd sydd yn bwysig yn gyfoes rŵan? Mae llygredd awyr yn parhau i fod yn broblem sy'n wynebu llawer o bobl yn fy rhanbarth i, fel rŷch chi'n ymwybodol, yn dod o Abertawe eich hunan. Yn yr Hafod yn Abertawe, yn Nhreforys, a hefyd ym Mhort Talbot, mae llygredd awyr yn achosi afiechyd a marwolaethau dianghenraid. Pan gymerodd ClientEarth y Llywodraeth hon i'r llys, cyfaddefwyd bod diffyg gweithredu'r Llywodraeth ar lygredd aer yn anghyfreithlon. Rydym ni nawr yn disgwyl i gynllun awyr glân i Gymru a'r parthau awyr glân gael eu lansio. A allaf felly ofyn am ddadl a diweddariad cyn gynted ag y bo modd ar y cynllun yma, a hefyd ofyn pryd y gall y Cynulliad ddisgwyl gwybodaeth bellach ar y parthau awyr glân? Diolch yn fawr.
English: The Minister's listening to your remarks, which I'm sure she concurs with, and she will be bringing forward a statement for the house to consider shortly. I would like also to say, though, that there's very much an equalities issue here as well. One of the interesting things, if Members have access to university studies about clean air, is that, in Swansea for example, much of the pollution generated by the cars on the seafront in Swansea, from the very wealthy parts of the city, actually flows up the hill in a perfect storm to the poorer part of the cities at the top. So, the pollution generated by the wealthy parts of the city actually impacts heaviest on the poorer parts of the city. So, I'm not sure that everybody is entirely aware of quite how air flows work in that way, and the complexity of actually managing variable traffic speeds, for example, in order to reduce the way that air flow actually happens, given particular climatic conditions. We didn't suffer from the snow in Swansea particularly over the weekend, but we had severe wind, and that caused some very serious pollution issues in the city in pockets, as it pocketed in particular aspects of the city. And Swansea University has been very proactive in its pursuit of that as an issue. And I know the Minister is very well aware of these issues, and she will be taking those into account when she brings her statement forward.
Welsh: Mae'r Gweinidog yn gwrando ar eich sylwadau, ac rwy'n sicr ei bod yn cytuno â nhw, a bydd hi'n cyflwyno datganiad er mwyn i'r tŷ ei ystyried cyn bo hir. Fodd bynnag, hoffwn i hefyd ddweud bod mater o gydraddoldeb yn y fan yma hefyd yn sicr. Un o'r pethau diddorol, os oes gan Aelodau fynediad at astudiaethau prifysgol ar aer glân, yw, yn Abertawe er enghraifft, bod llawer o'r llygredd o ganlyniad i geir ar lan y môr yn Abertawe, o rannau cyfoethog iawn y ddinas, yn llifo mewn gwirionedd i fyny'r rhiw mewn storm berffaith i rannau tlotach y ddinas ar y brig. Felly, mae'r llygredd a gynhyrchir gan rannau cyfoethog y ddinas yn effeithio fwyaf ar rannau tlotaf y ddinas mewn gwirionedd. Felly, nid wyf yn sicr bod pawb yn hollol ymwybodol o sut yn union y mae llif yr aer yn gweithio yn y ffordd honno, a chymhlethdod rheoli cyflymder traffig amrywiol mewn gwirionedd, er enghraifft, er mwyn lleihau y ffordd y mae llif yr aer hwnnw yn digwydd mewn gwirionedd, o gofio'r amodau hinsoddol arbennig. Ni wnaethom ddioddef yn arbennig o'r eira yn Abertawe dros y penwythnos, ond cawsom wynt difrifol, ac achosodd hynny broblemau llygredd difrifol iawn mewn rhannau o'r ddinas, gan ei fod wedi effeithio ar agweddau penodol ar y ddinas. Ac mae Prifysgol Abertawe wedi bod yn rhagweithiol iawn wrth fynd ar drywydd y mater. A gwn fod y Gweinidog yn ymwybodol iawn o'r materion hyn, ac y bydd yn rhoi ystyriaeth i hynny pan fydd yn cyflwyno ei datganiad.
English: Thank you, leader of the house.
Welsh: Diolch i ysgrifennydd y tŷ.
English: The next item, therefore, is the statement by the Cabinet Secretary for Health and Social Services on valuing the NHS workforce. And I call on the Cabinet Secretary, Vaughan Gething, to make his statement. Vaughan Gething.
Welsh: Yr eitem nesaf, felly, yw'r datganiad gan Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet dros Iechyd a Gwasanaethau Cymdeithasol ar werthfawrogi gweithlu'r gwasanaeth iechyd. Ac rydw i'n galw ar Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet, Vaughan Gething, i wneud ei ddatganiad. Vaughan Gething.
English: I think the stories that we've heard from across the NHS in the recent extreme weather conditions show the extreme dedication of staff to provide care for their patients, and I hope that they hear our gratitude for their commitment to their work and the service they provide.
Welsh: Credaf fod y straeon yr ydym ni wedi'u clywed am bob rhan o'r GIG yn yr amodau tywydd eithafol diweddar yn dangos ymroddiad anhygoel y staff i ddarparu gofal ar gyfer eu cleifion, a gobeithiaf y byddant yn clywed ein diolch am eu hymrwymiad i'w gwaith a'r gwasanaeth y maen nhw'n ei ddarparu.
English: Item 4 on the agenda is a statement by the leader of the house on International Women's Day. I call on the leader of the house, Julie James.
Welsh: Eitem 4 ar yr agenda yw datganiad gan arweinydd y tŷ ar Ddiwrnod Rhyngwladol y Menywod. Rwy'n galw ar arweinydd y tŷ, Julie James.
English: Thank you. We have nine minutes left on this statement to run and we have five speakers, so I shall leave you all to do the maths on that. So, what I'm asking for is: can we have short contributions and short answers? Then we'll get you all in. Dawn Bowden.
Welsh: Diolch. Mae gennym ni naw munud ar ôl ar y datganiad hwn ac mae gennym ni bum siaradwr, felly rwy'n gadael i chi wneud y mathemateg ar hynny. Rwy'n gofyn nawr felly: a gawn ni gyfraniadau byr ac atebion byr? Drwy wneud hynny, bydd modd i bawb cael cyfle i siarad. Dawn Bowden.
English: Indeed. Very swiftly, Deputy Presiding Officer, I would say that absolutely, I agree with that. There's an enormous list in every constituency of women who've been absolutely instrumental in moving every walk of life in Wales on. I'm looking forward to the 100 notable women campaign that WEN Wales will be putting forward and we've already said that we will put Government money behind the purple plaque campaign to get as many of those purple plaques as we possibly can, and there'll be a public appeal to do that as well. I'm determined to get those QR codes on as well, not just the name and the fact that they lived there. I want somebody to actually be able to understand what that woman actually did and what you, therefore, can aspire to in each of our communities across Wales.
Welsh: Yn wir. Yn gyflym iawn, Dirprwy Lywydd, byddwn yn dweud fy mod i'n cytuno i'r carn â hynny. Mae rhestr hir ym mhob etholaeth o fenywod sydd wedi bod yn gwbl allweddol wrth ddatblygu pob agwedd ar fywyd yng Nghymru. Rwy'n edrych ymlaen at yr ymgyrch 100 o fenywod nodedig y bydd WEN Cymru yn ei chyflwyno ac rydym eisoes wedi dweud y byddwn ni'n defnyddio arian y Llywodraeth i gefnogi'r ymgyrch plac porffor, er mwyn cael cymaint o'r placiau porffor hynny ag y gallwn ni, a bydd yna apêl gyhoeddus i wneud hynny hefyd. Rwy'n benderfynol o gael y codau QR hynny hefyd, nid dim ond yr enw a'r ffaith eu bod wedi byw yno. Rwyf eisiau i rywun ddeall mewn gwirionedd beth yn union wnaeth y fenyw honno, a beth y gallwch chi, felly, ymgyrraedd ato ym mhob un o'n cymunedau ledled Cymru.
English: I completely agree with absolutely everything you've said. There is an issue about dignity and embarrassment, and that's very much part of the sex and healthy relationships agenda. Actually, there's a real issue in primary schools as well, because many girls start menstruating before they're 11 and move on to secondary schools, and that's a real issue for them. So, it is about making sure our entire education system is geared up to make sure that people have dignity and respect and privacy and the right equipment of whatever sort. We are investigating the whole sustainability agenda as well, which is a huge issue, and the issue about sanitary protection, both for the individual and for the disposal and washing facilities and all the rest of it. That's why I'm saying that we want to be sure that when we bring a scheme forward it actually works for everybody in Wales, because we have various women in different stages of their menstrual and reproductive cycles, obviously. So, it's a very important point. We are working very hard on it. We will be looking very closely at some of the trials that are going on in RCT and elsewhere, and we are talking to various homelessness charities and so on, and I've been working with the Minister for housing on some of this as well. We will be bringing forward a scheme; I just want to make sure that that scheme works for everyone and fits in with our sex and healthy relationships agenda in general.
Welsh: Rwy'n cytuno'n llwyr â popeth yr ydych chi wedi'i ddweud. Mae'n fater sy'n ymwneud ag urddas a chywilydd, ac mae hynny'n rhan bwysig iawn o'r agenda rhyw a pherthynas iach. Mewn gwirionedd, mae hwn yn fater mewn ysgolion cynradd hefyd, gan fod llawer o ferched yn dechrau eu mislif cyn iddyn nhw droi'n 11 oed a chyn iddyn nhw fynd ymlaen i'r ysgol uwchradd, ac mae hynny'n broblem wirioneddol iddynt. Felly, mae'n ymwneud â gwneud yn siŵr bod ein system addysg gyfan yn barod i sicrhau urddas a phfarch a phreifatrwydd i bobl, ynghyd â'r adnoddau cywir o ba fath bynnag. Rydym yn edrych ar yr agenda cynaliadwyedd gyfan hefyd, sydd yn broblem enfawr, a materion yn ymwneud ag adnoddau mislif, a hynny ar gyfer yr unigolyn ac ar gyfer gwaredu a chyfleusterau golchi ac yn y blaen. Dyna pam yr wyf yn dweud bod yn rhaid i ni sicrhau, wrth gyflwyno cynllun, fod y cynllun hwnnw yn gweithio mewn gwirionedd i bawb yng Nghymru, gan fod gennym ni fenywod ar wahanol gyfnodau o'u cylchred mislifol ac atgenhedlol, yn amlwg. Felly, mae'n bwynt pwysig iawn. Rydym ni'n gweithio'n galed iawn arno. Byddwn yn edrych yn agos iawn ar rai o'r treialon sy'n cael eu cynnal yn Rhondda Cynon Taf ac mewn mannau eraill, ac rydym yn siarad â gwahanol elusennau digartrefedd ac ati, ac rwyf wedi bod yn gweithio gyda'r Gweinidog tai ar rywfaint o hyn hefyd. Fe fyddwn ni'n cyflwyno cynllun; rwyf yn awyddus i sicrhau bod y cynllun yn gweithio i bawb ac yn gydnaws â'n hagenda rhyw a pherthynas iach gyffredinol.
