English: Thank you for that. I'm very aware of the time passing. I have one more question. A number of public services have said in their evidence to us - and I'm sure that you've heard this this morning as well - that it's difficult for them to have consistency between this legislation and other pieces of legislation by the Welsh Government. For example, if there is no funding to accompany this legislation in the same way as with other pieces of legislation, it's obvious that this is a problem, because this is something that arises time after time. So, what steps will the Government take to respond to this problem?
Welsh: Diolch am hwnna. Dwi'n ymwybodol iawn o'r amser, felly dim ond un cwestiwn arall gennyf i. Mae nifer o wasanaethau cyhoeddus wedi dweud yn eu tystiolaeth i ni - ac dwi'n siŵr eich bod chi wedi clywed y bore yma hefyd - mae'n anodd iddyn nhw gysoni'r ddeddfwriaeth yma gyda rhannau eraill o ddeddfwriaeth gan Lywodraeth Cymru. Er enghraifft, os does dim ariannu'n mynd gyda'r ddeddfwriaeth yma yn yr un ffordd â rhannau eraill o ddeddfwriaeth, mae'n amlwg bod hyn yn broblem, achos mae'n rhywbeth sy'n codi tro ar ôl tro. Pa gamau bydd y Llywodraeth yn cymryd i ymateb i hyn, plîs?
English: Welcome to this Plenary meeting. Before we begin, I want to set out a few points. A Plenary meeting held by video-conference, in accordance with the Standing Orders of the Welsh Parliament, constitutes Senedd proceedings for the purposes of the Government of Wales Act 2006. Some of the provisions of Standing Order 34 will apply for today's Plenary meeting, and these are noted on your agenda. I would also remind Members that Standing Orders relating to order in Plenary meetings apply to this meeting.
Welsh: Croeso, bawb, i'r Cyfarfod Llawn. Cyn i ni ddechrau, dwi eisiau nodi ychydig o bwyntiau. Mae Cyfarfod Llawn a gynhelir drwy gynhadledd fideo, yn unol â Rheolau Sefydlog Senedd Cymru, yn gyfystyr â thrafodion y Senedd at ddibenion Deddf Llywodraeth Cymru 2006. Bydd rhai o ddarpariaethau Rheol Sefydlog 34 yn gymwys ar gyfer y cyfarfod yma heddiw, ac mae'r rheini wedi'u nodi ar eich agenda chi. Dwi eisiau atgoffa Aelodau hefyd fod y Rheolau Sefydlog sy'n ymwneud â threfn yn y Cyfarfod Llawn yn berthnasol i'r cyfarfod yma.
English: The first item on our agenda this afternoon is questions to the First Minister, and the first question is from Suzy Davies.
Welsh: Yr eitem gyntaf ar ein hagenda ni y prynhawn yma yw'r cwestiynau i'r Prif Weinidog, ac mae'r cwestiwn cyntaf gan Suzy Davies.
English: I thank Suzy Davies for that question. The criteria for reopening outdoor visitors attractions are set out in the Welsh Government's 'Coronavirus Control Plan - Alert Levels in Wales'. We are currently at alert level 4, and outdoor attractions are listed as reopening at alert level 2.
Welsh: Diolch i Suzy Davies am y cwestiwn yna. Mae'r meini prawf ar gyfer ailagor atyniadau awyr agored i ymwelwyr wedi eu nodi yng 'Nghynllun Rheoli Coronafeirws - Lefelau Rhybudd yng Nghymru' Llywodraeth Cymru. Ar hyn o bryd rydym ar lefel rhybudd 4, ac mae atyniadau awyr agored wedi'u rhestru fel bod yn ailagor ar lefel rhybudd 2.
English: Thank you for that answer. Obviously, the sector understands the need to reopen safely, but this is the time of the year when they have to make significant spending decisions, and to that end they're seeking as much information as possible to help them know how long they have to plan to stay closed as opposed to open. I think the prospect of a safe May election has given them some hope that May might be a possibility. Their immediate concerns, apart from workforce planning, though, are the arrival of rates bills and the possibility of travel being permitted elsewhere in the UK but not in Wales, and, of course, that will affect people's holiday decisions. So, what prospect is there of Welsh Government introducing a further business rates holiday for the sector pending reopening, and how important do you think, for the reason I've given - nothing to do with devolution - that some attempt must be made to align the reopening dates across the UK, notwithstanding the different tiers or alert levels, certainly between England and Wales?
Welsh: Diolch am yr ateb yna. Yn amlwg, mae'r sector yn deall yr angen i ailagor yn ddiogel, ond dyma'r adeg o'r flwyddyn pan fo'n rhaid iddyn nhw wneud penderfyniadau gwario sylweddol, ac i'r perwyl hwnnw maen nhw'n chwilio am gymaint o wybodaeth â phosibl i'w helpu i wybod am ba hyd y mae'n rhaid iddyn nhw gynllunio i aros ar gau yn hytrach nag agor. Rwy'n credu bod y posibilrwydd o etholiad diogel ym mis Mai wedi rhoi rhywfaint o obaith iddyn nhw y gallai mis Mai fod yn bosibilrwydd. Eu pryderon uniongyrchol, ar wahân i gynllunio'r gweithlu, fodd bynnag, yw dyfodiad biliau ardrethi a'r posibilrwydd o ganiatáu teithio mewn mannau eraill yn y DU ond nid yng Nghymru, ac, wrth gwrs, bydd hynny yn effeithio ar benderfyniadau pobl ynghylch gwyliau. Felly, pa obaith sydd yna y bydd Llywodraeth Cymru yn cyflwyno gwyliau ardrethi busnes ychwanegol i'r sector tan y bydd yn ailagor, a pha mor bwysig ydych chi'n meddwl, am y rheswm yr wyf i wedi ei roi - dim byd i'w wneud â datganoli - bod yn rhaid gwneud rhyw fath o ymdrech i gysoni'r dyddiadau ailagor ledled y DU, gan roi ystyriaeth i'r gwahanol haenau neu lefelau rhybudd, yn sicr rhwng Cymru a Lloegr?
English: First Minister, whilst nobody would advocate opening up attractions before it is safe to do so, we also have to accept that the industry has taken massive precautions to make their businesses as secure as they can with regard to COVID. And what the industry really needs is a clear pathway to opening back up. So, First Minister, can you publish guidelines for the reopening of the visitor economy, where it can be contingent perhaps on case rates continuing to fall? We do need a timeline so that the industry can prepare. Diolch.
Welsh: Prif Weinidog, er na fyddai neb yn argymell agor atyniadau cyn ei bod hi'n ddiogel i wneud hynny, mae'n rhaid i ni hefyd dderbyn bod y diwydiant wedi cymryd rhagofalon enfawr i wneud eu busnesau mor ddiogel ag y gallan nhw o ran COVID. A'r hyn sydd wir ei angen ar y diwydiant yw llwybr eglur i agor unwaith eto. Felly, Prif Weinidog, a allwch chi gyhoeddi canllawiau ar gyfer ailagor yr economi ymwelwyr, lle y gall fod yn amodol efallai ar gyfraddau achosion yn parhau i ostwng? Mae angen amserlen arnom ni fel y gall y diwydiant ymbaratoi. Diolch.
English: Llywydd, I thank Caroline Jones, and I understand the points that she makes, of course. The pathway to reopening is the pathway set out in the coronavirus control plan, and that does include a series of indicators, including positivity rates and prevalence rates in the community, that tell us when it would be safe to allow outdoor visitor attractions to reopen again. I accept everything that the Member said about the efforts the industry itself has made to put itself in the position where people will be confident to visit those attractions again. I honestly don't think there is anything more certain that I could offer that industry, or any other, other than to point to the plan that we set out, with its alert levels and with the criteria that will allow us to move between them, always pointing to the inherent uncertainty of the circumstances in which we continue to live.
Welsh: Llywydd, diolchaf i Caroline Jones, ac rwy'n deall y pwyntiau y mae'n eu gwneud, wrth gwrs. Y llwybr at ailagor yw'r llwybr a nodir yn y cynllun rheoli coronafeirws, ac mae hwnnw yn cynnwys cyfres o ddangosyddion, gan gynnwys cyfraddau positifrwydd a chyfraddau achosion yn y gymuned, sy'n dweud wrthym ni pryd y byddai'n ddiogel i ganiatáu atyniadau awyr agored i ymwelwyr ailagor unwaith eto. Rwy'n derbyn popeth a ddywedodd yr Aelod am yr ymdrechion y mae'r diwydiant ei hun wedi eu gwneud i roi ei hun yn y sefyllfa lle bydd pobl yn hyderus i ymweld â'r atyniadau hynny eto. Nid wyf i'n credu mewn gwirionedd bod unrhyw beth mwy sicr y gallwn i ei gynnig i'r diwydiant hwnnw, nac unrhyw un arall, ac eithrio cyfeirio at y cynllun a gyflwynwyd gennym, â'i lefelau rhybudd a chyda'r meini prawf a fydd yn caniatáu i ni symud rhyngddyn nhw, gan gyfeirio bob amser at ansicrwydd cynhenid yr amgylchiadau yr ydym ni'n parhau i fyw ynddyn nhw.
English: Llywydd, the UK Government's proposals for the shared prosperity fund fail to honour repeated commitments that Wales would be no worse off as a result of leaving the European Union, and have grave implications for our devolution settlement.
Welsh: Llywydd, nid yw cynigion Llywodraeth y DU ar gyfer y gronfa ffyniant gyffredin yn cydnabod yr ymrwymiadau mynych na fyddai Cymru yn ddim gwaeth ei byd o ganlyniad i adael yr Undeb Ewropeaidd, ac mae ganddyn nhw oblygiadau difrifol i'n setliad datganoli.
English: I'm grateful to the First Minister for that. He will have seen the reports and analysis that have been published over the last few weeks, all of which have demonstrated clearly that communities such as Blaenau Gwent and the Heads of the Valleys are likely to suffer a much worse economic impact as a consequence of the coronavirus than many other communities. These communities will therefore require additional investment to help us recover. I agree with him that the shared prosperity fund, as currently proposed, is a real betrayal of all those people not only who voted for Brexit, believing that the EU structural funds will be replaced by UK funding, but also those people who believed that the United Kingdom Government had our best interests at heart. The UK Government seem determined to repeat the mistakes of the past and not learn the lessons for the future. In this way, Blaenau Gwent is being short-changed and will pay the price of Tory dishonesty and Tory incompetence. First Minister, do you agree with me that places like Blaenau Gwent, communities in the Valleys, and the Heads of the Valleys, require additional investment to help us recover from the economic impacts of coronavirus and to create the jobs that we all want to see and need?
Welsh: Rwy'n ddiolchgar i'r Prif Weinidog am hynna. Bydd ef wedi gweld yr adroddiadau a'r dadansoddiadau a gyhoeddwyd dros yr wythnosau diwethaf, ac mae pob un ohonyn nhw wedi dangos yn eglur bod cymunedau fel Blaenau Gwent a Blaenau'r Cymoedd yn debygol o ddioddef effaith economaidd lawer gwaeth o ganlyniad i'r coronafeirws na llawer o gymunedau eraill. Felly, bydd angen buddsoddiad ychwanegol ar y cymunedau hyn i'n helpu i adfer. Rwy'n cytuno ag ef bod y gronfa ffyniant gyffredin, fel y'i cynigir ar hyn o bryd, yn fradychiad gwirioneddol o'r holl bobl hynny nid yn unig a bleidleisiodd dros Brexit, gan gredu y bydd cyllid y DU yn cymryd lle cronfeydd strwythurol yr UE, ond hefyd y bobl hynny a oedd yn credu bod ein buddiannau pennaf yn bwysig i Lywodraeth y Deyrnas Unedig. Mae'n ymddangos bod Llywodraeth y DU yn benderfynol o ailadrodd camgymeriadau'r gorffennol a pheidio â dysgu'r gwersi ar gyfer y dyfodol. Yn y modd hwn, mae Blaenau Gwent yn colli arian a bydd yn talu pris anonestrwydd y Torïaid ac aflerwch y Torïaid. Prif Weinidog, a ydych chi'n cytuno â mi bod angen buddsoddiad ychwanegol ar leoedd fel Blaenau Gwent, cymunedau yn y Cymoedd, a Blaenau'r Cymoedd, i'n helpu ni i adfer o sgil effeithiau economaidd y coronafeirws ac i greu'r swyddi yr ydym ni i gyd eisiau eu gweld ac yr ydym eu hangen?
English: First Minister, as you've just said, the chair of the Welsh affairs - the committee, I should say - in Westminster has expressed concerns, and I think we all appreciate that there have been issues with the roll-out and the development of shared prosperity fund. However, according to the UK Government response to the Welsh Affairs Select Committee report, 'Wales and the Shared Prosperity Fund', in December, the fund will, at least, match the current EU structural fund receipts with the intention of targeting places most in need - those mentioned by Alun Davies - such as ex-industrial areas, deprived towns, rural and coastal communities. So, I appreciate that's the UK Government position; it may not be the Welsh Government's position. But how is the Welsh Government planning so that these areas of Wales do indeed ultimately benefit? And how are Welsh Government officials working with or, at least, liaising with the UK Government to make sure that when funding does get up and running those areas will be delivered for?
Welsh: Prif Weinidog, fel yr ydych chi newydd ei ddweud, mae cadeirydd y materion Cymreig - y pwyllgor, dylwn i ddweud - yn San Steffan wedi mynegi pryderon, ac rwy'n credu ein bod ni i gyd yn sylweddoli y bu problemau o ran cyflwyno a datblygu cronfa ffyniant gyffredin. Fodd bynnag, yn ôl ymateb Llywodraeth y DU i adroddiad y Pwyllgor Dethol ar Faterion Cymreig, 'Cymru a'r Gronfa Ffyniant Gyffredin', ym mis Rhagfyr, bydd y gronfa, o leiaf, yr un faint â'r hyn a dderbynnir ar hyn o bryd o gronfa strwythurol yr UE gyda'r bwriad o dargedu'r lleoedd mwyaf anghenus - y rhai y cyfeiriodd Alun Davies atyn nhw - fel hen ardaloedd diwydiannol, trefi difreintiedig, cymunedau gwledig ac arfordirol. Felly, rwy'n sylweddoli mai safbwynt Llywodraeth y DU yw hwnnw; efallai nad dyna safbwynt Llywodraeth Cymru. Ond sut mae Llywodraeth Cymru yn cynllunio fel bod yr ardaloedd hyn yng Nghymru yn elwa yn y pen draw? A sut y mae swyddogion Llywodraeth Cymru yn gweithio gyda Llywodraeth y DU neu, o leiaf, yn cysylltu â hi i wneud yn siŵr, pan fydd cyllid yn dechrau cael ei ddarparu, y bydd darpariaeth ar gyfer yr ardaloedd hynny?
English: Well, Llywydd, I just don't agree that it's a matter of a difference of opinion. It is a difference of straightforward fact: Wales gets £375 million a year, in the last round of European funding; the shared prosperity fund next year will have £220 million in it for the whole of the United Kingdom. That is not a difference of opinion. That is a difference of £150 million. If Wales got the whole of the UK shared prosperity fund, we would be £150 million worse off than we would otherwise have been. And that's why, when Alun Davies asked his supplementary question, he said this is a betrayal of everything that people in Wales were told would happen after we left the European Union. I'm afraid there isn't a great deal of engagement at official level, because every time we ask the question we are simply told that there are no further details that can be shared with us. And that's the same answer we've had now since 2017, when this idea was first suggested by the UK Government - 2017 to 2021, in which there are no further details that can be shared with us. Little surprise that not just the Welsh Government but those communities who depend upon this investment to create the sort of economic futures that we need for them have lost patience and confidence in what this UK Government is likely to deliver.
Welsh: Wel, Llywydd, nid wyf i'n cytuno ei fod yn fater o wahaniaeth barn. Mae'n wahaniaeth o ffeithiau syml: mae Cymru yn cael £375 miliwn y flwyddyn, yn y cylch diwethaf o gyllid Ewropeaidd; bydd gan y gronfa ffyniant gyffredin y flwyddyn nesaf £220 miliwn ynddi ar gyfer y Deyrnas Unedig gyfan. Nid gwahaniaeth barn yw hynny. Mae hynny'n wahaniaeth o £150 miliwn. Pe byddai Cymru yn cael holl gronfa ffyniant gyffredin y DU, byddem £150 miliwn yn waeth ein byd nag y byddem ni wedi bod fel arall. A dyna pam, pan ofynnodd Alun Davies ei gwestiwn atodol, y dywedodd bod hwn yn fradychiad o bopeth a ddywedwyd wrth bobl yng Nghymru fyddai'n digwydd ar ôl i ni adael yr Undeb Ewropeaidd. Mae arnaf ofn nad oes llawer iawn o ymgysylltu ar lefel swyddogol, oherwydd bob tro y byddwn ni'n gofyn y cwestiwn, dywedir wrthym nad oes rhagor o fanylion y gellir eu rhannu â ni. A dyna'r un ateb yr ydym ni wedi ei gael nawr ers 2017, pan awgrymwyd y syniad hwn gyntaf gan Lywodraeth y DU - 2017 i 2021, pan nad oes unrhyw fanylion ychwanegol y gellir eu rhannu â ni. Nid yw'n syndod bod nid yn unig Llywodraeth Cymru ond y cymunedau hynny sy'n dibynnu ar y buddsoddiad hwn i greu'r math o ddyfodol economaidd yr ydym ni ei angen ar eu cyfer wedi colli amynedd a ffydd yn yr hyn y mae Llywodraeth y DU yn debygol o'i ddarparu.
English: Given how Wales has fared for many decades, through the Thatcher years in the 1980s, 15 years of a Westminster Labour Government that didn't reform the Barnett formula, leaving Wales worse off, 11 years of Tory-led austerity and now the disgrace that it is the shared prosperity fund - and I would associate myself with what the First Minister has said about that - does the First Minister now accept that it is decades since the redistributive potential of the Untied Kingdom, to which he often refers, has come anywhere near to being fulfilled? And does he now agree with me that it's time for us here in Wales to look after ourselves and each other, using the economic levers available to an independent nation to rebuild our economy and end poverty?
Welsh: O ystyried hynt Cymru ers degawdau lawer, drwy flynyddoedd Thatcher yn y 1980au, 15 mlynedd o Lywodraeth Lafur yn San Steffan na wnaeth ddiwygio fformiwla Barnett, gan adael Cymru yn waeth ei byd, 11 mlynedd o gyni cyllidol dan arweiniad y Torïaid a'r gronfa ffyniant gyffredin warthus nawr - a byddwn yn cysylltu fy hun â'r hyn y mae'r Prif Weinidog wedi ei ddweud am hynny - a yw'r Prif Weinidog bellach yn derbyn bod degawdau erbyn hyn ers i botensial ailddosbarthu y Deyrnas Unedig, y mae'n cyfeirio ato yn aml, ddod yn agos o gwbl at gael ei wireddu? Ac a yw bellach yn cytuno â mi ei bod hi'n bryd i ni yma yng Nghymru ofalu amdanom ni ein hunain a'n gilydd, gan ddefnyddio'r ysgogiadau economaidd sydd ar gael i wlad annibynnol i ailadeiladu ein heconomi a rhoi terfyn ar dlodi?
English: No, I don't, Llywydd, as the Member knows, and she's very unfair in her characterisation of the last Labour Government. During the last Labour Government, the cash available to the National Assembly grew by 10 per cent every single year in the first term of this institution. It grew in real terms in every year that Labour was in power. It is absolutely possible to use the United Kingdom as an engine for redistribution, and the last Labour Government demonstrated that year in and year out. The temporary failure of the current occupants of power at Westminster to do that should not be confused for an argument that the system is incapable of delivering what I believe it is capable of doing and which will be in Wales's interests.
Welsh: Nac ydw, dydw i ddim, Llywydd, fel y mae'r Aelod yn gwybod, ac mae hi'n annheg iawn yn ei disgrifiad o'r Llywodraeth Lafur ddiwethaf. Yn ystod y Llywodraeth Lafur ddiwethaf, cynyddodd yr arian a oedd ar gael i'r Cynulliad Cenedlaethol gan 10 y cant bob blwyddyn yn nhymor cyntaf y sefydliad hwn. Cynyddodd mewn termau real ym mhob blwyddyn yr oedd Llafur mewn grym. Mae'n gwbl bosibl defnyddio'r Deyrnas Unedig fel peiriant ar gyfer ailddosbarthu, a dangosodd y Llywodraeth Lafur ddiwethaf hynny flwyddyn ar ôl blwyddyn. Ni ddylid drysu rhwng methiant dros dro deiliaid presennol y grym yn San Steffan i wneud hynny gyda dadl nad yw'r system yn gallu cyflawni'r hyn yr wyf i'n credu y gallai ei gyflawni ac a fydd er lles Cymru.
English: Thank you, Presiding Officer, and, with your permission, I'd just like to put on the record that our thoughts and prayers are with the families of the three fishermen who are still classed as missing off the north Wales coast, and our gratitude to the search and rescue teams who have been out tirelessly trying to give some comfort to those families in trying to seek out their loved ones. I'm sure all Members' thoughts and prayers are with the families of Alan Minard, Ross Ballantine and Carl McGrath, who are still listed as missing off the north Wales coast. First Minister, could you tell me the current state of the pandemic? Because in your earlier response to the question from Suzy Davies, you clearly indicated that we have a long way to go before we can declare the pandemic at an end. We had the Office for National Statistics figures out today about deaths in Wales, and in particular in north Wales, each and every one a tragedy, and our thoughts are with the families who've lost loved ones. And today we have the assessment on the new mutant strain of the Kent variant. So, I think it's important for us to try and understand what your assessment is of the current pandemic and the journey we have to continue on here in Wales.
Welsh: Diolch, Llywydd, a gyda'ch caniatâd, hoffwn gofnodi bod ein meddyliau a'n gweddïau gyda theuluoedd y tri physgotwr sy'n dal i fod ar goll oddi ar arfordir y gogledd, a'n diolch i'r timau chwilio ac achub sydd wedi bod allan yn ddiflino yn ceisio rhoi rhywfaint o gysur i'r teuluoedd hynny wrth geisio chwilio am eu hanwyliaid. Rwy'n siŵr bod meddyliau a gweddïau'r holl Aelodau gyda theuluoedd Alan Minard, Ross Ballantine a Carl McGrath, sy'n dal wedi eu rhestru fel bod ar goll oddi ar arfordir y gogledd. Prif Weinidog, a allwch chi ddweud wrthyf i beth yw sefyllfa bresennol y pandemig? Oherwydd yn eich ymateb cynharach i'r cwestiwn gan Suzy Davies, nodwyd yn eglur gennych bod gennym ni ffordd bell i fynd cyn y gallwn ni ddatgan bod y pandemig ar ben. Cawsom ffigurau'r Swyddfa Ystadegau Gwladol a gyhoeddwyd heddiw ar farwolaethau yng Nghymru, ac yng ngogledd Cymru yn arbennig, a phob un yn drasiedi, ac mae ein meddyliau gyda'r teuluoedd sydd wedi colli anwyliaid. A heddiw mae gennym ni'r asesiad ar straen mwtant newydd amrywiolyn Caint. Felly, rwy'n credu ei bod hi'n bwysig i ni geisio deall beth yw eich asesiad o'r pandemig presennol a'r daith y mae'n rhaid i ni barhau i fod arni yma yng Nghymru.
