English: May I thank all the very many correspondents, many farmers, that I have heard from on this subject? I find perhaps the most shocking aspect of this is the number of times that the Minister promised, on the record and in this place, that she would not be bringing forward these sorts of NVZ proposals until the COVID pandemic had finished. Yet, here she is doing it. Surely that is just a breach of promise, unless there's something I have misunderstood here, but I just think that is a shocking betrayal of what had been promised. I'm also quite struck by how she's treated NRW. We've spent vast amounts on this organisation, which is supposedly arm's length and giving her advice, and it's done this big report, lots of work behind it, and says, 'We should increase the area of Wales covered from 2.5 per cent to around 8 per cent.' Yet, here she is going to 100 per cent. What's the point of having this body, given the way she's treated it? Now, I want to cite one correspondent in particular, who farms to the west of Hay-on-Wye, for 45 years as a dairy farmer, a former Dairy Farmer of the Year and Grassland Farmer of the Year. And one point he makes to me is that, on his farm, he's managed to reduce the use of chemical fertiliser by 20 per cent over the past 10 years by more timely application of slurry. And he also emphasises the increased costs of a five-month storage period and the extra burden of record keeping, which he pleads for us not to underestimate. Perhaps it's easy for us in Government or politics - extra forms to fill in perhaps aren't that big a job, but for those who have different businesses and aren't that way inclined or have the desire to do that it really is a very significant burden, and I think we need to understand that. The main reason I want to quote this particular correspondent is that he has a son who farms in Somerset, and there are two catchments there. One is an NVZ and one isn't, and it depends on the level of pollution what's required. And the one that is has an upper tributary that was taken out of the NVZ when there were improvements. Why can't we have have a system like that, that's sensitive to local needs, rather than a one-size-fits-all policy across Wales, just to be different from England and contrary to the promises that were made? We see, across our border, that I think 58 per cent of areas get this type of treatment, but they also have the possibility of applying to increase the amount of slurry that can be spread from 170 kg to 240 kg or 250 kg per hectare, depending on the area and depending on whether that's appropriate given the environment at the time. Surely, we'd be much better off with that sensitivity to local needs, rather than this blunderbuss policy that is across the whole of Wales. We heard last week from Jenny Rathbone, saying that you can't regulate a butcher's shop differently on one side to another. How on earth is that a comparison that says therefore you cannot regulate anything except the whole of Wales as one unit? And also I felt from her remarks, and some others that we've had from the Labour side, that the real objective of this is to push cattle off the land, and it's about climate change and reducing emissions and Labour not understanding and not supporting our farmers. I think it is wrong to bring this NVZ in across the whole of Wales. We should have a more proportionate approach, like that the UK Government takes, and I think we should vote for this motion to annul and that's what my party, the Abolish the Welsh Assembly Party, will be doing.
Welsh: A gaf fi ddiolch i'r nifer o bobl sydd wedi gohebu â mi, nifer o ffermwyr, y clywais ganddynt ar y pwnc hwn? Efallai mai'r agwedd fwyaf brawychus ar hyn yw'r nifer o weithiau yr addawodd y Gweinidog, ar gofnod ac yn y lle hwn, na fyddai'n cyflwyno'r mathau hyn o gynigion ynghylch parth perygl nitradau nes bod y pandemig COVID wedi dod i ben. Ac eto, dyma hi'n gwneud hynny. Mae wedi torri addewid, oni bai fy mod wedi camddeall rhywbeth yma, ond rwy'n credu bod hyn yn bradychu'r hyn a addawyd mewn modd brawychus. Rwyf hefyd wedi fy nharo gan y ffordd y mae wedi trin CNC. Rydym wedi gwario symiau enfawr ar y sefydliad hwn, sydd i fod yn gorff hyd braich i roi cyngor iddi, ac mae hwnnw wedi gwneud adroddiad mawr, gyda llawer o waith yn sail iddo, sy'n dweud, 'Dylem gynyddu'r arwynebedd yng Nghymru o 2.5 y cant i tua 8 y cant.' Ac eto, yma mae hi'n ei godi i 100 y cant. Beth yw diben cael y corff hwn, o ystyried y ffordd y mae hi wedi'i drin? Nawr, hoffwn ddyfynnu un o'r rhai sydd wedi gohebu â mi, rhywun sydd wedi bod yn rhedeg fferm laeth ers 45 mlynedd i'r gorllewin o'r Gelli Gandryll, ac sydd wedi ennill gwobrau Ffermwr Llaeth y Flwyddyn a Ffermwr Glaswelltir y Flwyddyn yn y gorffennol. Ac un pwynt y mae'n ei wneud yw ei fod, ar ei fferm, wedi llwyddo i leihau'r defnydd o wrtaith cemegol 20 y cant dros y 10 mlynedd diwethaf drwy ddefnyddio slyri'n fwy amserol. Ac mae hefyd yn pwysleisio costau cynyddol cyfnod storio o bum mis a'r baich ychwanegol o gadw cofnodion, rhywbeth y mae'n erfyn arnom i beidio â'i ddiystyru. Efallai ei bod yn hawdd i ni mewn Llywodraeth neu wleidyddiaeth - efallai nad yw llenwi ffurflenni ychwanegol yn waith mor galed â hynny, ond i'r rheini sydd â busnesau gwahanol ac nad ydynt wedi arfer gwneud hynny, neu nad ydynt yn hoffi gwneud hynny, mae'n faich sylweddol iawn, ac rwy'n credu bod angen inni ddeall hynny. Y prif reswm rwyf eisiau dyfynnu'r unigolyn penodol hwn yw bod ganddo fab sy'n ffermio yng Ngwlad yr Haf, ac mae dau ddalgylch yno. Mae un yn barth perygl nitradau ond nid yw'r llall, ac mae'r hyn sydd angen ei wneud yn dibynnu ar lefel y llygredd. Ac mae gan y dalgylch sy'n barth perygl nitradau is-afon yn y rhan uchaf a dynnwyd allan o'r parth pan gafodd gwelliannau eu gwneud. Pam na allwn gael system fel honno, sy'n sensitif i anghenion lleol, yn hytrach nag un polisi i bawb ledled Cymru, ddim ond i fod yn wahanol i Loegr ac yn groes i'r addewidion a wnaed? Dros ein ffin, gwelwn fod 58 y cant o ardaloedd yn cael eu trin yn y ffordd hon, ond mae'n bosibl hefyd iddynt wneud cais i gynyddu faint o slyri y gellir ei wasgaru o 170 kg i 240 kg neu 250 kg yr hectar, yn dibynnu ar yr ardal ac yn dibynnu a yw hynny'n briodol o ystyried yr amgylchedd ar y pryd. Does bosibl na fyddem yn llawer gwell ein byd gyda sensitifrwydd o'r fath i anghenion lleol, yn hytrach na'r polisi lletchwith hwn ledled Cymru gyfan. Clywsom gan Jenny Rathbone yr wythnos diwethaf yn dweud na allwch reoleiddio siop gigydd yn wahanol ar un ochr i'r hyn a wnewch ar yr ochr arall. Sut ar y ddaear y mae honno'n gymhariaeth sy'n dweud felly bod yn rhaid rheoleiddio Cymru gyfan fel un uned? Ac roeddwn yn teimlo, o'i sylwadau, a rhai eraill a gawsom gan Aelodau'r Blaid Lafur, mai gwir amcan hyn yw gwthio gwartheg oddi ar y tir, ac mae'n ymwneud â newid hinsawdd a lleihau allyriadau a'r ffaith nad yw'r Blaid Lafur yn deall nac yn cefnogi ein ffermwyr. Rwy'n credu ei bod yn anghywir sefydlu'r parth perygl nitradau hwn ar draws Cymru gyfan. Dylem gael dull mwy cymesur, fel y mae Llywodraeth y DU wedi'i fabwysiadu, a chredaf y dylem bleidleisio dros y cynnig hwn i ddirymu a dyna fydd fy mhlaid i, Plaid Diddymu Cynulliad Cymru, yn ei wneud.
