English: I want to raise the state of bus services in the Rhondda. I've received a number of representations from constituents about the deterioration in the frequency and quality of service. Many of the modern gold Stagecoach buses have been replaced by older and smaller models in many cases, and I've been informed that these buses have been reallocated to the Blackwood, Newport and Cardiff routes. Some popular routes have also been reduced in frequency, leading to problems getting on to the bus, let alone finding a seat. I can give you plenty of examples of complaints that I've received, but one has said, 'I drive everywhere, mainly due to the fact that the waiting times for public transport in general are appalling. The cost of a ticket isn't worth waiting for buses. If trains and buses were more frequent and cheaper, then I would 100 per cent use them more often.' I applaud the decision not to go ahead with the costly black route for the M4, if not the cost and the rigmarole that it took to get us to this stage. However, if we are going to make Wales the cleaner, greener and more prosperous country that we all know we are capable of becoming, then there needs to be a radical plan to improve public transport. This Government needs to make a pitch to ditch the car. Can the Government therefore issue a statement on its plans to improve public transport in Wales, and specifically how it will put right these problems that I've referred to in the Rhondda? I was informed last week of the decision to delay the centralisation of paediatric services in Cwm Taf health board. This decision, which was endorsed by the Labour Government here, would have seen consultant-led services removed from the Royal Glamorgan Hospital in Llantrisant, and concentrated at Prince Charles Hospital in Merthyr. For me, and the thousands of others who marched and campaigned against those plans for many, many years, this was very welcome news. While the centralisation of maternity services in Cwm Taf cannot be held solely responsible for the failings that we've seen there, it's hardly helped the issue. I'd like the Government now to acknowledge that the centralisation of services is not the answer to the recruitment crisis. Proactive recruitment and providing more training places is the answer. This is what Plaid Cymru has long been calling for. Will the Government make a statement on its plans for tackling the recruitment crisis please?
Welsh: Rwyf i am godi cyflwr gwasanaethau bysiau yn y Rhondda. Rwyf i wedi cael nifer o sylwadau gan etholwyr ynghylch y dirywiad yn amlder ac ansawdd y gwasanaeth. Mae llawer o'r bysiau Stagecoach aur modern wedi cael eu disodli gan fodelau hŷn a llai o faint mewn llawer o achosion, ac rwyf i wedi cael gwybod bod y bysiau hyn wedi cael eu hailddosbarthu i lwybrau Coed-duon, Casnewydd a Chaerdydd. Mae rhai llwybrau poblogaidd hefyd yn dioddef gwasanaeth llai aml, gan arwain at broblemau o ran mynd ar y bws, heb sôn am ddod o hyd i sedd. Gallaf roi digon o enghreifftiau i chi o gwynion yr wyf i wedi'u cael, ond roedd un yn dweud, ' Rwy'n gyrru i bobman, yn bennaf oherwydd bod yr amseroedd aros am gludiant cyhoeddus yn gyffredinol warthus. Nid yw cost tocyn yn werth aros am fysiau. Pe byddai trenau a bysiau yn amlach ac yn rhatach, yna 100 y cant byddwn yn eu defnyddio'n amlach. Rwyf i'n cymeradwyo'r penderfyniad i beidio â bwrw ymlaen â'r llwybr du costus ar gyfer yr M4, os nad y gost a'r rigmarôl a fu i gyrraedd y fan hon. Fodd bynnag, os ydym ni'n mynd i wneud Cymru'n lanach, yn wyrddach ac yn fwy ffyniannus, sef y wlad yr ydym ni i gyd yn ymwybodol y gall hi fod, yna mae angen cynllun radical i wella cludiant cyhoeddus. Mae angen i'r Llywodraeth hon wneud ymdrech i gael gwared ar y car. A all y Llywodraeth felly gyhoeddi datganiad ar ei chynlluniau i wella cludiant cyhoeddus yng Nghymru, ac yn benodol sut y bydd yn unioni'r problemau hyn yr wyf i wedi cyfeirio atynt yn y Rhondda? Cefais wybod yr wythnos diwethaf am y penderfyniad i oedi'r broses o ganoli gwasanaethau pediatrig ym Mwrdd Iechyd Cwm Taf. Byddai'r penderfyniad hwn, a gefnogwyd gan y Llywodraeth Lafur hon, wedi gweld gwasanaethau dan arweiniad ymgynghorwyr yn cael eu symud o Ysbyty Brenhinol Morgannwg yn Llantrisant, ac wedi'u canoli yn ysbyty'r Tywysog Siarl ym Merthyr. I mi, a'r miloedd o bobl eraill a orymdeithiodd ac a ymgyrchodd yn erbyn y cynlluniau hynny am flynyddoedd lawer, roedd hyn yn newyddion calonogol iawn. Er nad yw canoli gwasanaethau mamolaeth yng Nghwm Taf wedi bod yn llwyr gyfrifol am y methiannau a welwyd yno, prin ei fod wedi helpu'r mater. Hoffwn i'r Llywodraeth gydnabod yn awr nad canoli gwasanaethau yw'r ateb i'r argyfwng recriwtio. Recriwtio rhagweithiol a darparu mwy o leoedd hyfforddi yw'r ateb. Dyma'r hyn y bu Plaid Cymru yn galw amdano ers talwm. A wnaiff y Llywodraeth ddatganiad am ei chynlluniau ar gyfer mynd i'r afael â'r argyfwng recriwtio os gwelwch yn dda?
