English: It is a very important point in respect of the operation of parliaments across the UK, not just in respect of secondary legislation but, of course, the increased use of framework legislation, which ultimately leads to the same powers going to executives and, obviously, diminution in the roles of scrutiny. Can I just say that, on the issue of scrutiny, I have something very much in mind? I very much welcome actually the input from the Legislation, Justice and Constitution Committee on the issue around legislative consent memoranda, and, of course, there is going to be a Business Committee review of that, and that is an area I've been certainly applying my mind and giving considerable attention to. I think the same applies in respect of the points you raise with regard to secondary legislation, and I include with that framework legislation, because I think, from the Government's side, there are two competing forces: the one is the imperative on Government to get on with legislation, to get on with implementing manifestos, but, equally so, that has to be within the framework of a parliament, where the exercise of powers by government are properly held to account, that they are transparent, and there is a capacity for proper scrutiny. Now, there are real issues of scrutiny for a variety of other reasons as well, as the Member will know, and that is, for example, the extent of legislation that is coming, the issues that arise on legislative consent memoranda and the way in which legislation is having to be responded to so quickly, particularly in the light of Brexit and, of course, rather similar issues in respect of COVID. What I can say is - and I've said this, I think, in the Legislation, Justice and Constitution Committee, but I can reiterate it here - I am more than happy to engage on a regular basis on those issues of scrutiny, on the discussion around those challenges that we have as not only a new Parliament, as a new democracy, but one that has also - . Each session of the Senedd has an increasing legislative role and increasing responsibilities, and we have to ensure that the democratic structure and the accountability of the Welsh Parliament is operating. There are difficult environments because of the dysfunctional constitutional arrangement we have at present within the UK, but hence the need for our own constitutional commission and also the inter-governmental review and the other considerations that are under way that recognise that dysfunction and are beginning to look at ways of creating a solution to it.
Welsh: Mae'n bwynt pwysig iawn mewn perthynas â gwaith seneddau ar draws y DU, nid yn unig mewn perthynas ag is-ddeddfwriaeth ond wrth gwrs, y defnydd cynyddol o fframwaith deddfwriaethol, sy'n arwain at yr un pwerau'n mynd i weithrediaethau yn y pen draw, a lleihau rolau craffu wrth gwrs. A gaf fi ddweud, ar fater craffu, fod gennyf rywbeth mewn golwg? Rwy'n croesawu'r mewnbwn gan y Pwyllgor Deddfwriaeth, Cyfiawnder a'r Cyfansoddiad ynghylch mater memoranda cydsyniad deddfwriaethol, ac wrth gwrs, cyflawnir adolygiad yn o hynny gan y Pwyllgor Busnes, ac mae hwnnw'n sicr yn faes rwyf wedi bod yn ei ystyried ac wedi bod yn rhoi cryn sylw iddo. Credaf fod yr un peth yn wir am y pwyntiau a godwch ynglŷn ag is-ddeddfwriaeth, ac rwy'n cynnwys fframwaith deddfwriaethol gyda hynny, oherwydd o ochr y Llywodraeth, credaf fod dau rym sy'n cystadlu: un yw'r rheidrwydd ar Lywodraeth i fwrw ymlaen â deddfwriaeth, i fwrw ymlaen â gweithredu maniffestos, ond yn yr un modd, rhaid i hynny fod o fewn fframwaith senedd, lle mae'n rhaid i arfer pwerau gan lywodraeth gael ei ddwyn i gyfrif yn briodol, a'u bod yn dryloyw, a bod gallu i graffu'n briodol. Nawr, ceir problemau gwirioneddol gyda chraffu am amryw o resymau eraill hefyd, fel y gŵyr yr Aelod, sef, er enghraifft, maint y ddeddfwriaeth sydd ar y ffordd, y materion sy'n codi gyda memoranda cydsyniad deddfwriaethol a'r ffordd y mae'n rhaid ymateb i ddeddfwriaeth mor gyflym, yn enwedig yng ngoleuni Brexit a materion go debyg mewn perthynas â COVID wrth gwrs. Yr hyn y gallaf ei ddweud yw - ac rwyf wedi dweud hyn, rwy'n credu, yn y Pwyllgor Deddfwriaeth, Cyfiawnder a'r Cyfansoddiad, ond gallaf ei ailadrodd yma - rwy'n fwy na pharod i ymgysylltu'n rheolaidd ar y materion hynny sy'n ymwneud â chraffu, ar y drafodaeth ynghylch yr heriau sydd gennym nid yn unig fel Senedd newydd, fel democratiaeth newydd, ond un sydd hefyd - . Mae gan bob sesiwn o'r Senedd rôl ddeddfwriaethol gynyddol a chyfrifoldebau cynyddol, ac mae'n rhaid inni sicrhau bod strwythur democrataidd ac atebolrwydd Senedd Cymru yn weithredol. Ceir amgylcheddau anodd oherwydd y trefniant cyfansoddiadol camweithredol sydd gennym ar hyn o bryd yn y DU, ond dyna pam fod angen inni gael ein comisiwn cyfansoddiadol ein hunain a hefyd yr adolygiad rhynglywodraethol a'r ystyriaethau eraill sydd ar y gweill sy'n cydnabod y camweithredu hwnnw ac sy'n dechrau edrych ar ffyrdd o'i ddatrys.
