English: Thank you very much for raising those points and for your recognition, right at the start of your contribution, about the important role that gender budgeting can play in helping us address some of these issues, which have been with us for far too long now. I think gender budgeting will provide us with an important tool in terms of advancing equality here in Wales. There were some specific questions about the pilots, so I'm very happy to provide some more information about those. The first pilot that we undertook is the personal learning accounts pilot, and that commenced in September 2019. That programme was then scaled up and commenced delivery right across Wales in 2021. That works really closely with the regional skills partnerships to ensure that provision is there in terms of responding to specific regional skills needs, but we know that some of these are in areas where women have been typically underrepresented or overrepresented. So, we've looked at areas such as construction on the one hand and social care on the other hand. We expect the final report of our learning of the personal learning accounts pilots to be published in late summer 2022. So, there'll be an opportunity for us to explore that in further detail. At this point, we're not able to provide more detail on the gender-specific outputs, but we look forward to more detail being available later on in the summer. Some initial findings, though, that I am able to share do really give us a real focus on the need to have that sustained focus on gender budgeting when activity is scaled up. When things are happening at a more focused and small, local level, there's a lot of focus on that gender budgeting; the challenge comes, then, when we scale things up. So, that's something that we're considering carefully as we move to the other pilots. As Peter Fox says, one is the young person's guarantee, and that's one of our key commitments to ensure that everyone under the age of 25 living in Wales has support to gain a place in education or training, or the support that they need to become self-employed. Taking part in the gender budgeting pilot does enable the young person's guarantee programme to review its systems, review its evidence base and look again at the decisions that are being made, and the design and the delivery of new activity using that gender and intersectional lens. The initial review of the diverse areas of the YPG is currently ongoing, with a view to developing a more detailed plan to ensure that we get the greatest benefit for the programme, and, ultimately, of course, for the young people of Wales. In terms of the active travel pilot, obviously this has a really important part to play in providing sustainable transport. That's something that we want everybody to be able to benefit from. Our gender budgeting pilot in this regard is focused on the Wales E-Move programme, which will be considering what learning we can achieve through that. The E-Move pilot is being delivered by Sustrans Cymru, and we're currently working in partnership with them to understand how taking a gender budgeting approach can add value to our current programme and help design the future delivery. The early analysis of those engaged in the programme so far has shown a higher proportion of participants who identified as female accessing the scheme in rural areas. By exploring and applying that intersectional lens, we'll be looking to understand the characteristics of these users better to get some more insight into the reasons behind this, to help shape our thinking on active travel in the future. But, again, we will be able to share more information with the Senedd in due course. The budget improvement and impact advisory group is really important in terms of helping support Welsh Government in its decision making and improving the way we do budgeting. The purpose, really, is about improving not just the budget but also our tax processes to improve outcomes. And that group is going to drive forward work on tackling inequality and taking forward some of our gender budgeting approaches and providing that critical friend voice to us in the work that we're doing in this area. The group itself is a mixture of members of the previous budget advisory group for equalities, BAGE, with some additions now to cover a wider range of areas of impact. There's a mixture of voluntary sector organisations and public sector organisations, and we're currently working with that group to agree the structure of the work programme going forward. In the coming weeks, we'll be publishing our terms of reference for that group and its 12-month work plan on the Welsh Government's website. And then, just to reflect on the really important point about there being a range of characteristics that impact on people's experiences of the choices that we make in terms of budgeting, that's why this has to be about that intersectional approach. So, it's not just about looking at things from a women's perspective and a men's perspective, but really considering all of those other protected characteristics that impact on people's experiences of services and society. We do know that the most effective gender analyses take that intersectional approach, combining the look at the effect on women and men, but with the other characteristics as well. So, we're able to do that, and also look at well-being through the lens of culture, environment, society and so on as well. So, there are many ways to look at this, and many things that we can learn when we look at that intersectional approach, whilst doing so through that gender lens.
Welsh: Diolch yn fawr am godi'r pwyntiau hynny ac am eich cydnabyddiaeth, ar ddechrau eich cyfraniad, am y swyddogaeth bwysig y gall cyllidebu ar sail rhyw ei chwarae wrth ein helpu i fynd i'r afael â rhai o'r materion hyn, sydd wedi bod gyda ni ers llawer gormod o amser nawr. Credaf y bydd cyllidebu ar sail rhyw yn arf pwysig inni o ran hyrwyddo cydraddoldeb yma yng Nghymru. Roedd rhai cwestiynau penodol am y cynlluniau peilot, felly rwy'n hapus iawn i ddarparu mwy o wybodaeth am y rheini. Y cynllun peilot cyntaf a gynhaliwyd gennym ni yw'r cynllun peilot cyfrifon dysgu personol, a dechreuodd hynny ym mis Medi 2019. Yna cafodd y rhaglen honno ei huwchraddio a dechreuodd y ddarpariaeth ar draws Cymru yn 2021. Mae hynny'n gweithio'n agos iawn gyda'r partneriaethau sgiliau rhanbarthol i sicrhau bod darpariaeth o ran ymateb i anghenion sgiliau rhanbarthol penodol, ond gwyddom fod rhai o'r rhain mewn ardaloedd lle mae menywod fel arfer wedi cael eu tangynrychioli neu eu gorgynrychioli. Felly, rydym ni wedi edrych ar feysydd fel adeiladu ar y naill law a gofal cymdeithasol ar y llaw arall. Rydym yn disgwyl i'r adroddiad terfynol o'r hyn yr ydym ni wedi ei ddysgu o'n cynlluniau peilot gyda'r cyfrifon dysgu personol gael ei gyhoeddi ddiwedd haf 2022. Felly, bydd cyfle inni archwilio hynny'n fanylach. Ar hyn o bryd, ni allwn ni ddarparu mwy o fanylion am yr allbynnau sy'n benodol i ryw, ond edrychwn ymlaen at weld mwy o fanylion ar gael yn ddiweddarach yn yr haf. Fodd bynnag, mae rhai canfyddiadau cychwynnol y gallaf eu rhannu yn rhoi pwyslais gwirioneddol inni ar yr angen i gadw'r pwyslais parhaus hwnnw ar gyllidebu ar sail rhyw pan gaiff gweithgarwch ei gynyddu. Pan fydd pethau'n digwydd ar lefel fwy penodol a bach, lleol, mae llawer o bwyslais ar y cyllidebu hwnnw ar sail rhyw; daw'r her, felly, pan fyddwn yn gwneud pethau mwy. Felly, mae hynny'n rhywbeth yr ydym yn ei ystyried yn ofalus wrth inni symud i'r cynlluniau peilot eraill. Fel y dywed Peter Fox, un yw gwarant y person ifanc, a dyna un o'n hymrwymiadau allweddol i sicrhau bod pawb o dan 25 oed sy'n byw yng Nghymru yn cael cymorth i gael lle mewn addysg neu hyfforddiant, neu'r cymorth sydd ei angen arnynt i fod yn hunangyflogedig. Mae cymryd rhan yn y cynllun peilot cyllidebu ar sail rhyw yn galluogi'r rhaglen warant i bobl ifanc i adolygu ei systemau, adolygu ei sylfaen dystiolaeth ac edrych eto ar y penderfyniadau sy'n cael eu gwneud, a dylunio a chyflwyno gweithgarwch newydd o ran rhywedd ac o'r safbwynt rhyngsectorol hwnnw. Mae'r adolygiad cychwynnol o feysydd amrywiol y gwarant pobl ifanc yn mynd rhagddo ar hyn o bryd, gyda'r bwriad o ddatblygu cynllun manylach i sicrhau ein bod yn cael y budd mwyaf i'r rhaglen, ac, yn y pen draw, wrth gwrs, i bobl ifanc Cymru. O ran y cynllun peilot teithio llesol, mae'n amlwg bod gan hyn ran bwysig iawn o ran darparu trafnidiaeth gynaliadwy. Mae hynny'n rhywbeth mae arnom ni eisiau i bawb allu elwa ohono. Mae ein cynllun peilot cyllidebu ar sail rhyw yn hyn o beth yn canolbwyntio ar raglen E-Symud Cymru, a fydd yn ystyried pa ddysgu y gallwn ni ei gyflawni drwy hynny. Mae'r cynllun peilot E-Symud yn cael ei ddarparu gan Sustrans Cymru, ac ar hyn o bryd rydym yn cydweithio â nhw i ddeall sut y gall mabwysiadu dull cyllidebu ar sail rhyw ychwanegu gwerth at ein rhaglen bresennol a helpu i gynllunio'r gwaith o gyflawni yn y dyfodol. Mae'r dadansoddiad cynnar o'r rhai sy'n ymwneud â'r rhaglen hyd yma wedi dangos bod cyfran uwch o gyfranogwyr a nododd eu bod yn fenywod yn defnyddio'r cynllun mewn ardaloedd gwledig. Drwy archwilio a chymhwyso'r safbwynt rhyngsectorol hwnnw, byddwn yn ceisio deall nodweddion y defnyddwyr hyn yn well er mwyn cael mwy o ddealltwriaeth o'r rhesymau y tu ôl i hyn, er mwyn helpu i lywio ein syniadau ar deithio llesol yn y dyfodol. Ond, unwaith eto, byddwn yn gallu rhannu mwy o wybodaeth gyda'r Senedd maes o law. Mae'r grŵp cynghori ar wella ac asesu effaith y gyllideb yn bwysig iawn o ran helpu Llywodraeth Cymru i wneud penderfyniadau a gwella'r ffordd yr ydym ni'n cyllidebu. Mae'r diben, mewn gwirionedd, yn ymwneud â gwella nid yn unig y gyllideb ond hefyd ein prosesau treth i wella canlyniadau. Ac mae'r grŵp hwnnw'n mynd i fwrw ymlaen â gwaith ar fynd i'r afael ag anghydraddoldeb a bwrw ymlaen â rhai o'n dulliau cyllidebu ar sail rhyw a darparu'r llais cyfaill beirniadol hwnnw i ni yn y gwaith yr ydym yn ei wneud yn y maes hwn. Mae'r grŵp ei hun yn gymysgedd o aelodau'r grŵp cynghori cyllidebol blaenorol ar gyfer cydraddoldebau, BAGE, gyda rhai ychwanegiadau bellach i gwmpasu ystod ehangach o feysydd effaith. Mae cymysgedd o sefydliadau'r sector gwirfoddol a sefydliadau'r sector cyhoeddus, ac rydym yn gweithio gyda'r grŵp hwnnw ar hyn o bryd i gytuno ar strwythur y rhaglen waith yn y dyfodol. Yn ystod yr wythnosau nesaf, byddwn yn cyhoeddi ein cylch gorchwyl ar gyfer y grŵp hwnnw a'i gynllun gwaith 12 mis ar wefan Llywodraeth Cymru. Ac yna, dim ond i fyfyrio ar y pwynt pwysig iawn fod yna amrywiaeth o nodweddion sy'n effeithio ar brofiadau pobl o'r dewisiadau a wnawn o ran cyllidebu, dyna pam y mae'n rhaid i hyn ymwneud â'r dull rhyngsectorol hwnnw. Felly, nid yw'n ymwneud ag edrych ar bethau o safbwynt menywod a safbwynt dynion yn unig, ond ystyried yr holl nodweddion gwarchodedig eraill hynny sy'n effeithio ar brofiadau pobl o wasanaethau a chymdeithas. Rydym ni yn gwybod fod y dadansoddiadau mwyaf effeithiol o ran rhywiau yn defnyddio'r dull rhyngsectorol hwnnw, gan gyfuno craffu ar yr effaith ar fenywod a dynion, ond gyda'r nodweddion eraill hefyd. Felly, fe allwn ni wneud hynny, ac edrych hefyd ar les o safbwynt diwylliant, yr amgylchedd, cymdeithas ac yn y blaen hefyd. Felly, mae sawl ffordd o edrych ar hyn, a llawer o bethau y gallwn eu dysgu pan fyddwn yn edrych ar y dull rhyngsectorol hwnnw, gan wneud hynny o safbwynt rhywedd.
