English: May I thank the Cabinet Secretary for Economy and Infrastructure for his statement, and, indeed, welcome the statement in its entirety? Now is not the time to be speaking at length and arguing about which route is best, because the Minister has outlined a way forward in terms of this complex issue, which has been ongoing now for many years. The truth is that we do need a solution. I don't think that doing nothing is an option for people in that local area or the businesses of south Wales, either. Therefore, I welcome the intention to look at a broad range of options in an entirely independent inquiry. And I would throw into the mix, too, the concept of abolishing the Severn bridge tolls, as we are going to look at all options possible. I would add that as an option that also causes congestion and problems locally. As I've said already, I don't think the status quo is an option and I welcome the way forward set out here, particularly in having heard of the experiences of many people - those in favour and against the various routes. The Minister will be aware, of course, of the doubts that many people have about the environmental impacts of the various options before us. Now, of course, his Government is in favour of one particular route, the black route. We, on these benches, are in favour of another, the blue route. And, in having this entirely independent inquiry that will look at all of the options, as you've already said, what assurance can you give us that the same kind of detail, thoroughness and transparency is given when you're considering the blue route along with the black route? Are you going to treat all of the options equally, giving them the same weighting, to avoid any possible criticism that you may be favouring and continuing to favour and bringing influence to bear on an independent inquiry to come out in favour of the black route? I am seeking an assurance that, when you state that the whole range of options on the table are going to be looked at in detail, that that is going to be the case in reality. Thank you very much.
Welsh: A allaf i ddiolch i Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet dros yr economi ac isadeiledd am ei ddatganiad ac, yn wir, croesawu ei ddatganiad yn llawn? Nawr, y prynhawn yma - nid dyma'r adeg i fod yn mynd a thraethu a dadlau ynglŷn â pha ffordd sydd orau, achos, wrth gwrs, mae'r Gweinidog wedi amlinellu ffordd ymlaen ar y mater dyrys yma sydd wedi bod yn rhygnu ymlaen ers blynyddoedd lawer. Achos y gwir ydy: mae angen ateb. Nid wyf yn credu bod gwneud dim yn opsiwn i'r bobl leol na holl fusnesau de Cymru hefyd. Felly, rwy'n croesawu'r bwriad i edrych ar yr ystod eang o ddewisiadau sydd gerbron mewn adolygiad hollol annibynnol. Ac mi fuaswn i'n taflu i mewn i'r pair hefyd y syniad: beth am gael gwared â gorfod talu am groesi pont Hafren pan rydym ni wrthi, gan ein bod ni'n mynd i edrych ar bob opsiwn? Buaswn i'n ychwanegu hwnnw fel opsiwn sydd hefyd yn achosi prysurdeb a thagfeydd yn lleol. Fel rwyf wedi dweud eisoes, nid wyf i'n credu bod gwneud dim yn opsiwn, ac rwy'n canmol y ffordd ymlaen yn fan hyn, yn enwedig drwy fod yn cyfranogi o brofiad nifer fawr o bobl - rheini sydd o blaid pa bynnag ffordd a'r rheini hefyd sydd yn eu herbyn nhw. Bydd y Gweinidog yn ymwybodol, wrth gwrs, o amheuon nifer fawr o bobl ynglŷn â sgil-effeithiau amgylcheddol, ac ati, y gwahanol ddewisiadau. Nawr, wrth gwrs, mae ei Lywodraeth e o blaid un ffordd arbennig, y ffordd ddu. Rydym ni ar y meinciau fan hyn o blaid ffordd arall, y ffordd las. Wedyn, o gael yr ymchwiliad hollol annibynnol yma sydd yn mynd i edrych ar yr holl opsiynau, fel rydych chi wedi ei ddweud, pa sicrwydd allwch chi ei roi inni fod yr un math o bwysau, manylder a thryloywder yn mynd i gael ei roi pan rydych chi'n cysidro'r ffordd las, er enghraifft, ochr yn ochr â'r ffordd ddu? A ŷch chi'n mynd i drin yr holl ddewisiadau yr un fath, gyda'r un pwysau, i osgoi unrhyw feirniadaeth, felly, eich bod chi'n ffafrio, a dal i ffafrio, a thrio dylanwadu ar, yr ymchwiliad annibynnol yma i ddod allan o blaid y ffordd ddu? Chwilio rydw i am sicrwydd, pan rydych chi'n dweud bod yr holl ystod eang o ddewisiadau yn mynd i gael ei archwilio mewn manylder, fod hynny'n mynd i ddigwydd mewn realiti. Diolch yn fawr.
