English: Can I just add my voice to those who have congratulated schools and the teachers, the staff, as well as parents and families, and indeed some council officials as well, who contributed to being able to open schools in these last couple of weeks, and particularly those who are determined to go for that fourth week? I'd like to begin today, though, with the questions that have been raised by the Children's Commissioner for Wales regarding a child's right to education, generally, and perhaps you can tell us whether your policies and regulations have been subject to child rights impact assessments. But I particularly wanted to focus on her urging you to be clear about your plans for September. I've heard what you've said to others in the Chamber today, but Welsh schools and councils have seen that the other three nations of the UK have already published their guidance for next term. Yesterday, in the Children, Young People and Education Committee, you told us that you were waiting for the latest science on transmission of COVID-19 before you published your guidance, although I do believe that a draft was being considered by stakeholders before that. Did you request the report on that science or was it due anyway, and did you anticipate it making a material difference to the guidance you'd already prepared and circulated in draft? If yes, why was the middle tier still looking over a draft on Monday, and if no, why not publish that guidance earlier, duly caveated for some minor changes, so that schools and councils could get on with at least some preparation, knowing that their time to act is now so short?
Welsh: A gaf fi ychwanegu fy llais at y rheini sydd wedi llongyfarch ysgolion a'r athrawon, y staff, yn ogystal â rhieni a theuluoedd, ac yn wir, rhai o swyddogion y cynghorau hefyd, sydd wedi cyfrannu at allu agor ysgolion yn ystod yr ychydig wythnosau diwethaf, ac yn enwedig y rheini sy'n benderfynol o fynd am y bedwaredd wythnos honno? Hoffwn ddechrau heddiw, fodd bynnag, gyda'r cwestiynau a godwyd gan Gomisiynydd Plant Cymru ynghylch hawl plentyn i addysg, yn gyffredinol, ac efallai y gallwch ddweud wrthym a yw eich polisïau a'ch rheoliadau wedi bod yn destun asesiad o'r effaith ar hawliau plant. Ond roeddwn yn arbennig o awyddus i ganolbwyntio ar ei hanogaeth i chi fod yn glir ynghylch eich cynlluniau ar gyfer mis Medi. Clywais yr hyn a ddywedoch chi wrth eraill yn y Siambr heddiw, ond mae ysgolion a chynghorau Cymru wedi gweld bod tair gwlad arall y DU eisoes wedi cyhoeddi eu canllawiau ar gyfer y tymor nesaf. Ddoe, yn y Pwyllgor Plant, Pobl Ifanc ac Addysg, fe ddywedoch chi wrthym eich bod yn aros am y wyddoniaeth ddiweddaraf ar drosglwyddiad COVID-19 cyn i chi gyhoeddi eich canllawiau, er fy mod yn credu bod rhanddeiliaid yn ystyried drafft cyn hynny. A wnaethoch chi ofyn am yr adroddiad ar y wyddoniaeth honno, neu a oedd ar ei ffordd beth bynnag, ac a oeddech yn rhagweld y byddai'n gwneud gwahaniaeth sylweddol i'r canllawiau roeddech eisoes wedi'u paratoi a'u darparu ar ffurf ddrafft? Os gwnaethoch, pam fod yr haen ganol yn dal i edrych dros ddrafft ddydd Llun, ac os na wnaethoch, pam na wnaethoch gyhoeddi'r canllawiau hynny yn gynharach, gyda chafeat priodol ar gyfer rhai mân newidiadau, fel y gallai ysgolion a chynghorau fwrw ymlaen â rhywfaint o waith paratoi fan lleiaf, gan gofio bod eu hamser i weithredu bellach mor fyr?
