English: Thank you, Presiding Officer. Minister, I've raised with you on several occasions, and indeed I raised it with the First Minister yesterday, that, in your statement attached to the announcement around going for net zero by 2050, you said that that journey will be the biggest planned economic transition of modern times, and you've also made, obviously, a climate change emergency declaration. But when I go to the Cabinet minutes of that Cabinet meeting on 29 April, the declaration was informed to the Cabinet under 'any other business', and it says: 'The Minister for Environment, Energy and Rural Affairs informed Cabinet that she had declared the climate change emergencythat day.' That hardly shows much planning or planning into the scheme of things that you're going to need to do to change the economy and to protect jobs and create quality jobs. Do you think that's an appropriate way for Cabinet to work?
Welsh: Diolch, Lywydd. Weinidog, rwyf wedi gofyn i chi ynglŷn â hyn sawl gwaith, ac yn wir holais y Prif Weinidog yn ei gylch ddoe, sef eich bod wedi dweud yn eich datganiad a oedd ynghlwm wrth y cyhoeddiad ynghylch anelu i fod yn sero net erbyn 2050, mai'r daith honno fydd y newid economaidd mwyaf a gynlluniwyd erioed yn yr oes fodern, ac rydych hefyd wrth gwrs wedi gwneud datganiad ar argyfwng hinsawdd. Ond pan edrychaf ar gofnodion y cyfarfod Cabinet hwnnw ar 29 Ebrill, rhoddwyd gwybod i'r Cabinet am y datganiad o dan 'unrhyw fater arall', ac mae'n dweud: Hysbysodd Gweinidog yr Amgylchedd, Ynni a Materion Gwledig y Cabinet ei bod wedi datgan argyfwng newid hinsawdd y diwrnod hwnnw. Go brin fod hynny'n dangos llawer o gynllunio neu gynllunio pethau y bydd angen ichi eu gwneud er mwyn newid yr economi a diogelu swyddi a chreu swyddi o safon. A ydych chi'n credu bod honno'n ffordd briodol i'r Cabinet weithio?
English: Well, you're reading the minutes from the Cabinet; you won't be aware of all the discussions that went on ahead of the declaration of a climate emergency. The decarbonisation ministerial task and finish group, which I chair, meets every six weeks/two months. Discussions are ongoing through that task and finish group. The Minister for Economy and Transport sits on that committee. The low carbon delivery plan, which I've referred to a couple of times already in this session, was where we set out our 100 policies and proposals. Again, there have been many discussions across Cabinet to bring that forward, and this is all part - . As I said yesterday, all these parts: decarbonisation, climate change mitigation, air quality, all are very integral - they're separate things, but they are integral. So, those discussions - . It wasn't just an announcement I made; people were very aware that that announcement was coming.
Welsh: Wel, rydych chi'n darllen cofnodion y Cabinet; ni fyddwch yn ymwybodol o'r holl drafodaethau a ddigwyddodd cyn datgan argyfwng hinsawdd. Mae grŵp gorchwyl a gorffen y Gweinidog ar ddatgarboneiddio a gadeirir gennyf yn cyfarfod bob chwe wythnos/dau fis. Mae trafodaethau'n mynd rhagddynt drwy'r grŵp gorchwyl a gorffen hwnnw. Mae Gweinidog yr Economi a Thrafnidiaeth yn aelod o'r pwyllgor hwnnw. Y cynllun cyflawni carbon isel y cyfeiriais ato unwaith neu ddwy eisoes yn y sesiwn hon oedd lle y gwnaethom nodi ein 100 o bolisïau ac argymhellion. Unwaith eto, bu llawer o drafodaethau ar draws y Cabinet ar gyflwyno hynny, ac mae hyn i gyd yn rhan - . Fel y dywedais ddoe, mae'r holl rannau hyn: datgarboneiddio, lliniaru newid hinsawdd, ansawdd aer, i gyd yn hollbwysig - maent yn bethau ar wahân, ond maent yn hollbwysig. Felly, mae'r trafodaethau hynny - . Nid dim ond cyhoeddiad a wnaed gennyf fi ydoedd; roedd pobl yn ymwybodol iawn fod y cyhoeddiad hwnnw'n dod.
English: Thank you for that. I'm not knocking the decisions that you've taken; actually I've been supportive of them, but what concerns me is the action behind some of these announcements. I have to say that I thought that the minutes of Cabinet were meant to reflect the discussion that went on in Cabinet. And I agree that this is a whole Government response. We've heard since those declarations that Government obviously is having to deal with all these issues around their policy portfolio issues, but that minute doesn't clearly indicate to me that there has been that discussion. So, obviously, you're telling us there has. For example, can you tell me how many jobs will be lost in the Welsh economy because of the transition and how many jobs might be created in the green revolution we hope to see? That's a pretty straightforward question and, if Ken Skates has been on your committee, let's have an understanding of this transition that you've talked about and what we might and might not expect as we go forward.
Welsh: Diolch am hynny. Nid wyf yn beirniadu'r penderfyniadau a wnaethoch; mewn gwirionedd, rwyf wedi eu cefnogi, ond yr hyn sy'n fy mhoeni yw'r gweithredu y tu ôl i rai o'r cyhoeddiadau hyn. Rhaid imi ddweud fy mod yn credu bod cofnodion y Cabinet i fod i adlewyrchu'r drafodaeth a ddigwyddodd yn y Cabinet. Ac rwy'n cytuno bod hwn yn ymateb gan y Llywodraeth gyfan. Rydym wedi clywed ers y datganiadau hynny fod y Llywodraeth yn amlwg yn gorfod ymdrin â'r holl faterion sy'n ymwneud â'u portffolio polisïau, ond nid yw'r cofnodion hynny'n dangos yn glir i mi fod y drafodaeth honno wedi digwydd. Felly, yn amlwg, rydych chi'n dweud wrthym ei bod wedi digwydd. Er enghraifft, a allwch ddweud wrthyf faint o swyddi a gollir yn economi Cymru oherwydd y trawsnewid a faint o swyddi a allai gael eu creu yn y chwyldro gwyrdd y gobeithiwn ei weld? Mae hwnnw'n gwestiwn eithaf syml, ac os yw Ken Skates wedi bod yn aelod o'ch pwyllgor, gadewch i ni ddeall y newid hwn rydych wedi'i drafod a'r hyn y gallem ei ddisgwyl neu fel arall wrth inni symud ymlaen.
English: So, the minute that you referred to wasn't a minute of a discussion. You said yourself it was 'any other business', so it wasn't a minute of a discussion in Cabinet. Those discussions take place in other places across the Government. In relation to your question about the number of jobs, I can't give you a figure. What I've discussed with Ken Skates is the opportunity for more jobs if we transition to a low-carbon economy and I think, in other parts of the world that are ahead of us, you will see that that's the case.
Welsh: Nid cofnod o drafodaeth oedd y cofnod y cyfeirioch chi ato. Fe ddywedoch eich hun mai 'unrhyw fater arall' ydoedd, felly nid oedd yn gofnod o drafodaeth yn y Cabinet. Mae'r trafodaethau hynny'n digwydd mewn mannau eraill ar draws y Llywodraeth. O ran eich cwestiwn am nifer y swyddi, ni allaf roi ffigur i chi. Yr hyn a drafodais gyda Ken Skates yw'r cyfle i gael mwy o swyddi os byddwn yn newid i economi carbon isel a chredaf y byddwch yn gweld bod hynny'n wir mewn rhannau eraill o'r byd sydd o'n blaenau.
English: I appreciate that you might not be able to give me an exact figure today, but, surely, amongst your discussions with Cabinet colleagues, you would have some understanding of the job implications here - the ones that might be lost from what we might call the old carbon economy and what might be created in the green economy. So, I'd hoped that maybe you'd be able to inform Members of that. One of the things that is happening in Westminster, for example, around their declaration, is that the Treasury there have provided hard and fast financials around some of the commitments the Government might have to take if it is to hit its net zero by 2050, and the figure of £1 trillion has been talked of, and about £70 billion a year. What economic modelling has the Welsh Government undertaken and has been made available to you when you've been making your decisions - and other members of the Government - so that you can make informed decisions that obviously put us in the best possible place? And, if that modelling has been made available to you, will you commit to make that available to Assembly Members so that we can have sight of it and understand exactly how the decisions have been taken?
Welsh: Sylweddolaf na allwch roi ffigur union i mi heddiw, ond yn sicr, ymysg eich trafodaethau gyda'ch cyd-Weinidogion Cabinet, byddai gennych rywfaint o ddealltwriaeth o'r goblygiadau o ran swyddi yma - y rhai a allai gael eu colli o'r hyn y gallem ei alw'n hen economi garbon a'r hyn y gellid ei greu yn yr economi werdd. Felly, roeddwn i'n gobeithio efallai y byddech yn gallu rhoi gwybod i'r Aelodau am hynny. Un o'r pethau sy'n digwydd yn San Steffan, er enghraifft, mewn perthynas â'u datganiad, yw bod y Trysorlys yno wedi darparu manylion ariannol cadarn rhai o'r ymrwymiadau y gallai'r Llywodraeth orfod eu gwneud os yw'n mynd i gyrraedd sero net erbyn 2050, a soniwyd am ffigur o £1 triliwn, a thua £70 biliwn y flwyddyn. Pa fodelu economaidd y mae Llywodraeth Cymru wedi'i wneud ac sydd wedi'i ddarparu i chi pan fyddwch wedi bod yn gwneud eich penderfyniadau - ac aelodau eraill o'r Llywodraeth - fel y gallwch wneud penderfyniadau hyddysg sy'n amlwg yn ein rhoi yn y lle gorau posibl? Ac os yw'r modelu hwnnw ar gael i chi, a wnewch chi ymrwymo i sicrhau ei fod ar gael i Aelodau'r Cynulliad fel y gallwn ei weld a deall sut yn union y cafodd y penderfyniadau eu gwneud?
English: So, I go back to what I said in my second answer to you, that I think there are more opportunities in the low-carbon economy sector - or sectors, really. So, the balance - . I can't give you figures. Certainly, the chief economist who advises all members of the Government will have given us advice that we will have considered. I don't know if it's commercially sensitive or if there's any other reasons why I can't publish it, but I will look into that and let the Member know.
Welsh: Dychwelaf at yr hyn a ddywedais yn fy ail ateb i chi, sef fy mod yn meddwl bod mwy o gyfleoedd yn y sector economi carbon isel - neu sectorau, mewn gwirionedd. Felly, mae'r cydbwysedd - . Ni allaf roi ffigurau i chi. Yn sicr, bydd y prif economegydd sy'n cynghori holl Aelodau'r Llywodraeth wedi rhoi cyngor i ni y byddwn wedi'i ystyried. Nid wyf yn gwybod os yw'n sensitif yn fasnachol neu os oes unrhyw resymau eraill pam na chaf ei gyhoeddi, ond fe ymchwiliaf i hynny a rhoi gwybod i'r Aelod.
English: Question 3 [OAQ54055] is withdrawn. Question 4 - David Rees.
Welsh: Tynnwyd cwestiwn 3 [OAQ54055] yn ôl. Cwestiwn 4 - David Rees.
English: Thank you. I regularly meet with the Minister for International Relations and the Welsh Language to discuss various issues, including tourism. I've recently written to the Deputy Minister for Culture, Sport and Tourism about the breadth of support my portfolio provides to the tourism industry.
Welsh: Diolch. Byddaf yn cyfarfod yn rheolaidd â Gweinidog y Gymraeg a Chysylltiadau Rhyngwladol i drafod materion amrywiol, gan gynnwys twristiaeth. Rwyf wedi ysgrifennu at y Dirprwy Weinidog Diwylliant, Chwaraeon a Thwristiaeth yn ddiweddar ynghylch ehangder y cymorth y mae fy mhortffolio yn ei roi i'r diwydiant twristiaeth.
English: Well, thank you for that answer, Minister. Many Valleys communities, including those in the Afan Valley, have developed tourism as a means of growing the economy following the demise of the mining industry in those valleys. Much of the land surrounding those communities is actually owned by the Welsh Government and managed on their behalf by NRW. This land offers outdoor experiences to those visitors who come to those areas. For example, in my valley, mountain biking is a big issue and it uses the NRW land, very much so, to give an experience to visitors, and some of those trails are renowned worldwide, with many visitors coming from outside of the UK to experience them. Now, it's important, therefore, that NRW works with the communities to ensure that no unnecessary barriers exist that would damage the opportunities for tourism in these valleys. Minister, therefore, will you ensure that tourism is high on the agenda of NRW and will you seek support from your Cabinet colleagues, because I understand the funding challenges you will face, because this will need funding, because, for mountain biking, for example, you need to maintain the trails and sometimes those trails are vandalised by people using bikes as well? So, will you have those discussions to ensure that that agenda is high on their list?
Welsh: Diolch am yr ateb hwnnw, Weinidog. Mae llawer o gymunedau'r Cymoedd, gan gynnwys y rheini yng Nghwm Afan, wedi datblygu twristiaeth fel modd o dyfu'r economi ar ôl tranc y diwydiant glo yn y cymoedd hynny. Mae llawer o'r tir o amgylch y cymunedau hynny'n eiddo i Lywodraeth Cymru mewn gwirionedd ac yn cael ei reoli ar eu rhan gan Cyfoeth Naturiol Cymru. Mae'r tir hwn yn cynnig profiadau awyr agored i'r ymwelwyr sy'n dod i'r ardaloedd hynny. Er enghraifft, yn fy nghwm i, mae beicio mynydd yn fater pwysig ac mae'n sicr yn defnyddio tir CNC i roi profiad i ymwelwyr, ac mae rhai o'r llwybrau hynny'n enwog ledled y byd, gyda llawer o ymwelwyr yn dod o'r tu allan i'r DU i'w profi. Nawr, mae'n bwysig, felly, fod CNC yn gweithio gyda'r cymunedau i sicrhau nad oes unrhyw rwystrau diangen yn bodoli a fyddai'n niweidio'r cyfleoedd ar gyfer twristiaeth yn y cymoedd hyn. Felly, Weinidog, a wnewch chi sicrhau bod twristiaeth yn uchel ar agenda CNC ac a wnewch chi ofyn am gefnogaeth eich cyd-Weinidogion yn y Cabinet, gan fy mod yn deall yr heriau ariannol y byddwch yn eu hwynebu, oherwydd bydd angen cyllid ar gyfer hyn, oherwydd, ar gyfer beicio mynydd, er enghraifft, mae angen i chi gynnal a chadw'r llwybrau ac weithiau caiff y llwybrau hynny eu fandaleiddio gan bobl sy'n defnyddio eu beiciau hefyd? Felly, a fyddwch yn cael y trafodaethau hynny i sicrhau bod yr agenda honno'n uchel ar eu rhestr?
English: Thank you. I think you're absolutely right to flag that Natural Resources Wales, amongst others, have a very important part to play in protecting our natural environment and supporting our tourism industry. If my memory serves me right, the letter I did write to my colleague Dafydd Elis-Thomas - the word 'NRW' probably appeared more than any other word. So, I know, for instance, they're a consultee in the planning process around the current developments in the Afan Valley in your constituency. I know there's the proposed Afan adventure resort development. But I think it's really important that we do work together. You're right about communities. We need to work with our future generations within the guidelines of the future generations Act so that everyone can benefit from our natural resources.
Welsh: Diolch. Rwy'n credu eich bod yn hollol gywir i dynnu sylw at y ffaith bod gan Cyfoeth Naturiol Cymru, ymhlith eraill, ran bwysig iawn i'w chwarae yn diogelu ein hamgylchedd naturiol a chefnogi ein diwydiant twristiaeth. Os cofiaf yn iawn, mae'r llythyr a ysgrifennais at fy nghyd-Aelod, Dafydd Elis-Thomas - mae'n debyg fod 'CNC' wedi ymddangos mwy nag unrhyw air arall. Felly rwy'n gwybod, er enghraifft, eu bod yn ymgynghorai yn y broses gynllunio ynglŷn â'r datblygiadau presennol yng Nghwm Afan yn eich etholaeth. Gwn fod bwriad i ddatblygu canolfan antur Afan. Ond rwy'n meddwl ei bod yn bwysig iawn ein bod yn gweithio gyda'n gilydd. Rydych chi'n iawn ynglŷn â chymunedau. Mae angen inni weithio gyda chenedlaethau'r dyfodol o fewn canllawiau Deddf cenedlaethau'r dyfodol fel y gall pawb elwa o'n hadnoddau naturiol.
English: Thank you for your answer to David Rees then. I'm just thinking about how you can work with NRW with other portfolios within Government as well as tourism and where these possibilities can intersect with each other. In January, I asked you whether you thought there was an opportunity for Natural Resources Wales to work with schools so that children and young people could play a part in replanting trees in their local areas, and I think it cropped up in the context of the Afan Valley, actually, because not only does that help the well-being of communities and tourists and actually tourism business as well, it goes back to Mike Hedges's question about learning about science and carbon capture as well as the history of that valley. At the time, you said you thought it was a good idea and that you'd be speaking to your colleague Kirsty Williams about that. I hear that you've spoken to the Deputy Minister for Culture, Sport and Tourism. I'm wondering whether it might be worth an addendum to that letter to raise this as a possibility. Thank you.
Welsh: Diolch am eich ateb i David Rees yn y fan honno. Rwy'n meddwl sut y gallwch weithio gyda CNC gyda phortffolios eraill o fewn y Llywodraeth yn ogystal â thwristiaeth a lle gall y posibiliadau hyn gydblethu â'i gilydd. Ym mis Ionawr, gofynnais a oeddech yn meddwl bod cyfle i Cyfoeth Naturiol Cymru weithio gydag ysgolion fel y gallai plant a phobl ifanc chwarae rhan yn ailblannu coed yn eu hardaloedd lleol, a chredaf ei fod wedi codi yng nghyd-destun Cwm Afan, a dweud y gwir, oherwydd nid yn unig fod hynny'n helpu lles cymunedau a thwristiaid, a busnesau twristiaeth hefyd yn wir, mae'n mynd yn ôl at gwestiwn Mike Hedges am ddysgu am wyddoniaeth a dal carbon yn ogystal â hanes y cwm hwnnw. Ar y pryd, fe ddywedoch eich bod yn meddwl ei fod yn syniad da ac y byddech yn siarad â'ch cyd-Aelod Kirsty Williams ynglŷn â hynny. Clywaf eich bod wedi siarad â'r Dirprwy Weinidog Diwylliant, Chwaraeon a Thwristiaeth. Rwy'n meddwl tybed a allai fod yn werth rhoi atodiad i'r llythyr hwnnw er mwyn codi hyn fel posibilrwydd. Diolch.
English: Yes, certainly. You raise some very important points, and I've had in-depth conversations with both the chair and chief exec and other members of NRW around planting trees, because - I answered in my earlier answer to Mike Hedges that we're not planting enough trees, and, certainly, if we are going to mitigate climate change in the way we would want to, we need to ensure that happens. So, I know NRW are working with schools, from the last conversation I had with them. I don't know if it's specifically around planting trees, but it's certainly an opportunity, I think, that they can take forward. NRW manage 7 per cent of Wales's land area, and that obviously includes many reserves and picnic areas and woodland, so it's a very good opportunity to get out there in the fresh air and improve well-being.
Welsh: Yn sicr. Rydych yn gwneud pwyntiau pwysig iawn, ac rwyf wedi cael sgyrsiau manwl gyda chadeirydd a phrif weithredwr ac aelodau eraill CNC ynghylch plannu coed, oherwydd - atebais yn fy ateb cynharach i Mike Hedges nad ydym yn plannu digon o goed, ac yn sicr, os ydym yn mynd i liniaru newid hinsawdd yn y ffordd y byddem yn dymuno ei wneud, mae angen i ni sicrhau bod hynny'n digwydd. Felly, rwy'n gwybod bod CNC yn gweithio gydag ysgolion o'r sgwrs ddiwethaf a gefais gyda hwy. Nid wyf yn gwybod a yw'n ymwneud yn benodol â phlannu coed, ond rwy'n credu ei fod yn sicr yn gyfle y gallant ei ddatblygu. Mae CNC yn rheoli 7 y cant o arwynebedd tir Cymru, ac mae'n amlwg fod hynny'n cynnwys llawer o warchodfeydd ac ardaloedd picnic a choetiroedd, felly mae'n gyfle da iawn i fynd allan i'r awyr iach a gwella lles.
English: Minister, I'd like to echo David's comments. My region is home to many natural wonders, including the Crymlyn bog national nature reserve. As the species champion for the fen raft spider, which has its home at Crymlyn bog, can I ask what discussions you've had with the Minister for international relations about how our biodiversity can play a part in our international tourism offer? I am sure that there are entomologists across the globe who will come to our area to see our amazing fen raft spider. Thank you.
Welsh: Weinidog, hoffwn adleisio sylwadau David. Mae fy rhanbarth yn gartref i lawer o ryfeddodau naturiol, gan gynnwys gwarchodfa natur genedlaethol cors Crymlyn. Fel yr hyrwyddwr rhywogaethau ar gyfer corryn rafft y ffen, sydd â'i gartref yng nghors Crymlyn, a gaf fi ofyn pa drafodaethau a gawsoch gyda'r Gweinidog cysylltiadau rhyngwladol ynglŷn â sut y gall ein bioamrywiaeth chwarae rhan yn ein cynnig twristiaeth rhyngwladol? Rwy'n siŵr fod yna entomolegwyr ar draws y byd a ddaw i'n hardal i weld ein corryn rafft y ffen gwych. Diolch.
English: I haven't had a discussion about that particular spider with my colleague Eluned Morgan - I think I would remember if I had - but it's certainly something that I'm very happy to look at, and, if there is research and data that will help us, I'd be very interested to see it.
Welsh: Nid wyf wedi cael trafodaeth am y corryn arbennig hwnnw gyda fy nghyd-Aelod, Eluned Morgan - rwy'n meddwl y buaswn yn cofio pe bawn i wedi cael - ond mae'n sicr yn rhywbeth rwy'n hapus iawn i edrych arno, ac os oes yna ymchwil a data a fydd yn ein helpu, buaswn yn falch iawn o'u gweld.
English: Thank you. I have regular discussions with Hybu Cig Cymru and also Department for the Environment, Food and Rural Affairs Ministers to resolve the long-standing issue of repatriation of red meat levy. As a result of this, primary powers are now included within the UK Agriculture Bill and the levy bodies have developed initial proposals for the scheme's introduction.
Welsh: Diolch. Rwy'n cael trafodaethau rheolaidd gyda Hybu Cig Cymru a hefyd Adran yr Amgylchedd, Bwyd a Materion Gwledig er mwyn datrys problem hirsefydlog ailwladoli'r ardoll cig coch. O ganlyniad i hyn, mae pwerau sylfaenol bellach wedi'u cynnwys ym Mil Amaethyddiaeth y DU ac mae'r cyrff ardollau wedi datblygu cynigion cychwynnol ar gyfer cyflwyno'r cynllun.
English: Thank you, Minister, for that, and I'm very pleased to see a successful outcome of those negotiations and the passage of the Agriculture Bill at Westminster, obviously, with the transfer of these responsibilities coming here to Cardiff. Will the Minister confirm that she won't use any uplift in levy income to make up any shortfall in Welsh Government funding that might occur in the future, and, actually, any additional money that goes to Meat Promotion Wales will be new money that's available to the promotion body to promote red meat sales either here in Wales, the UK, or across the world?
Welsh: Diolch, Weinidog, ac rwy'n falch iawn o weld canlyniad llwyddiannus i'r trafodaethau hynny ac i hynt y Bil Amaethyddiaeth yn San Steffan wrth gwrs, wrth i'r cyfrifoldebau hyn gael eu trosglwyddo yma i Gaerdydd. A wnaiff y Gweinidog gadarnhau na fydd yn defnyddio unrhyw godiad yn yr incwm o'r ardoll i wneud iawn am unrhyw ddiffyg yng nghyllid Llywodraeth Cymru a allai ddigwydd yn y dyfodol, ac mewn gwirionedd, y bydd unrhyw arian ychwanegol sy'n mynd i Hybu Cig Cymru yn arian newydd sydd ar gael i'r corff hyrwyddo ar gyfer hybu gwerthiant cig coch naill ai yma yng Nghymru, y DU, neu ar draws y byd?
