“I too welcome the introduction of this Bill. The levy funding would be very beneficial in improving experiences for visitors and the lives of local residents in several communities in Arfon, from the communities surrounding yr Wyddfa, to the shores of the Menai. I’m pleased too to see the introduction of the holiday accommodation register, which will be an important source of data that could help with policy decisions in future. The register is vital for another Bill, isn't it, namely the statutory licensing Bill for short-term holiday lets. You have said that you will introduce this second Bill before the end of the Senedd term. What exactly is the timetable for the introduction of this second Bill? I understand that there is a great deal of work to be done on this first Bill, but the second Bill is important too, important to improve safety for visitors, to ensure that a balance is struck between different types of accommodation within the industry, and in terms of protecting the local housing stock from being turned into commercial assets rather than homes. So, will you confirm the timetable for the second Bill, the introduction date, and the implementation date too?”

“Trefnydd, I too was pleased to attend the White Ribbon event last night, and I thank Joyce Watson and the National Federation of Women's Institutes for arranging that very powerful and impactful event. We need to redouble or triple our efforts to eradicate violence against women. May I ask for a statement on another matter, from the Cabinet Secretary for the economy? Clarity is needed about the future of the shared prosperity grant. There is clarity needed on the level of the grant, the criteria, how it will be administered in Wales, and a number of other questions that come to mind in this regard too. There are a number of schemes in Arfon that face a very uncertain period ahead. I'll give you one example, which is Academi Adra in Penygroes—a very innovative scheme that trains young people in new skills in the field of construction and in housing. There are 164 young people who have benefited from the Academi Adra scheme so far, but its future is in the balance because there is uncertainty with regard to the shared prosperity fund, which creates the possibility of a totally unnecessary cliff edge for this scheme. So, can we have clarity? That is vital, not just for this scheme, but for a great number of schemes across Wales at the moment.”

Mae yna nifer o gynlluniau yn Arfon sydd yn wynebu cyfnod ansicr iawn. Mi wnaf i roi un esiampl i chi, sef Academi Adra ym Mhenygroes—cynllun arloesol sydd yn hyfforddi pobl ifanc mewn sgiliau newydd yn y maes adeiladwaith a'r maes tai.”

“Yesterday, when discussing the Welsh Language Commissioner's annual report and her role in policy development, I mentioned the importance of ensuring that one aspect of the Government's policy work doesn't undermine other policy work. Another area where there is potential for conflict is with the Government's 'Future Wales' national development plan, and the work of developing strategic development plans through the corporate joint committees. I'd ask the Government to reconsider the principles driving this work, because there is a danger that the regional strategic plans will militate against important policy work that's taking place through the Commission for Welsh-speaking Communities, and also militate against the Arfor plan, which unites areas in the west of our country. What, therefore, is your vision, as Cabinet Secretary for the Welsh language, from the perspective of the areas of high-intensity linguistic significance, and what is your vision for Arfor 3, which is the next sensible step to take with this innovative plan?”

Un arall o'r meysydd lle mae potensial am wrthdaro mawr yw gyda'r cynllun datblygu cenedlaethol 'Cymru'r Dyfodol', a'r gwaith o ddatblygu cynlluniau datblygu strategol drwy'r cydbwyllgorau corfforedig. Byddwn yn gofyn i'r Llywodraeth ailystyried yr egwyddorion sydd yn gyrru'r gwaith, oherwydd bod peryg i'r cynlluniau strategol rhanbarthol filwrio yn erbyn gwaith polisi pwysig sy'n digwydd drwy'r Comisiwn Cymunedau Cymraeg, a hefyd ym milwrio yn erbyn cynllun Arfor, sydd yn uno ardaloedd gorllewin ein gwlad.”

“A throi at yr ail fater, sef y safonau, mewn llythyr a gefais i gan Eluned Morgan ddiwedd yr haf, pan oedd hi’n Ysgrifennydd Cabinet dros y Gymraeg, roedd hi yn dweud mai’r flaenoriaeth gan y Llywodraeth o ran ymestyn trefn safonau’r Gymraeg ydy eu hymestyn nhw i’r sectorau cymdeithasau tai a thrafnidiaeth gyhoeddus.

“In thanking the commissioner for the report, I want to raise two issues, please. Objective 2 for the commissioner is ensuring that the Welsh language is considered in policy and legislation, and you've mentioned that. The Commission for Welsh-speaking Communities, under its chair, Simon Brooks, is encouraging the Government to enable decisions about local housing needs on a micro level, which respond to local needs, rather than espousing regional or national policies only. Could I just draw your attention to the possible discord that could arise between the recommendations of the Commission for Welsh-speaking Communities in the area of housing and the homelessness legislation that is under way, which would be around the local connection rule? I'm not going to go into detail about this now, but could I encourage you, Cabinet Secretary, to look at this to avoid conflict between the two policies for the future? In turning to the second issue, namely Welsh language standards, in a letter that I received from Eluned Morgan at the end of the summer, when she was Cabinet Secretary for the Welsh language, she stated that the priority for Government in terms of extending Welsh language standards is to extend them to the housing association and public transport sectors. I wonder whether you could give us an update on that work. The letter also states that the Government has started to consider which sectors should be prioritised after the period of this Senedd. Is this work ongoing and can you give us an idea of what this work has identified as priority sectors for the next Senedd? You will be very much aware that there was a commitment between our two parties to draw up a full list to complete the work of introducing Welsh language standards. When will that list be published, please?”
Original: “Wrth ddiolch am yr adroddiad, dwi eisiau codi dau fater, os gwelwch yn dda. Amcan 2 y comisiynydd ydy sicrhau bod y Gymraeg yn cael ei hystyried mewn polisi a deddfwriaeth, ac rydych chi wedi sôn am hynny. Mae’r Comisiwn Cymunedau Cymraeg, dan gadeiryddiaeth Simon Brooks, yn annog y Llywodraeth i alluogi penderfyniadau am anghenion tai lleol ar lefel micro, sy’n ymateb i anghenion lleol, yn hytrach nag arddel polisïau rhanbarthol neu genedlaethol yn unig. Gaf i jest dynnu eich sylw chi at ddisgord posib allai godi rhwng argymhellion y Comisiwn Cymunedau Cymraeg ym maes tai a’r ddeddfwriaeth ddigartrefedd sydd ar y gweill, a hynny o gwmpas y rheol cysylltiad lleol? Dwi ddim yn mynd i fanylu ar hyn rŵan, ond a gaf i eich annog chi, Ysgrifennydd Cabinet, i edrych ar hyn er mwyn osgoi gwrthdaro rhwng dau bolisi i’r dyfodol?”

Mae angen atebion clir yma, gan sicrhau digon o gyllid fydd yn penderfynu a ellir cwblhau’r gwaith atgyweirio i’r safon angenrheidiol ac o fewn amserlen resymol.

Mae yna lawer o waith o hyd i’w wneud i gyflawni fframwaith diogelwch adeiladau effeithiol a chynaliadwy yng Nghymru. Mae adroddiad yr archwilydd yn tynnu sylw at yr angen am systemau sicrwydd gwell, a chynllunio gweithlu digonol—y ddau yn hanfodol i gyflawni’r safonau uchel sydd eu hangen.”

“Thank you very much, Dirprwy Lywydd, and I welcome the opportunity to respond to this afternoon's statement on building safety, a subject that is very important and is hugely significant, particularly in light of the tragic lessons that were learned from the fire at Grenfell Tower. It is crucial that we keep a close eye on the impact of this work on the lives of residents, and on the importance of a transparent and thorough approach to building safety here in Wales. First of all, I would like to welcome the recent contracts that have been signed with developers to ensure that remediation work is done on high-risk buildings. I'm pleased to hear that Watkin Jones has, at last, signed the agreement, and I therefore hope to see early progress in the work of making properties safe at Victoria Dock in Caernarfon in my constituency. However, the success of these agreements depends on accountability. So, how will the Welsh Government monitor and enforce progress with this remediation work in order to ensure that it is delivered within the required timetable? Many tenants and residents have been living under clouds of uncertainty and risk for too long now, so not only do we need to ensure that developers keep to their commitments, but also that the Government has clear outcomes for any developers that fail to reach the standards, and that there are implications for those people. So, I would like to hear what steps will be taken in the case of any developer who fails to deliver against their responsibilities in a timely manner. Funding is clearly central to the success of the efforts in this area, and we know that the recent UK budget had allocated additional funding for building safety. Can the Minister confirm that there will be consequential funding available to Wales, and if so, how much? We need clear answers here to ensure enough funding that will decide whether we can complete the remediation work to the necessary standard and within a reasonable timetable. We have to avoid any situation where financial deficit leaves some buildings unsafe. Finally, I’m also going to mention the recent report by Audit Wales, ‘Cracks in the Foundations’. There is still a great deal of work to be done to deliver an effective building safety framework that is sustainable in Wales. The auditor’s report draws attention to the need for better assurance systems and adequate workforce planning—both are crucial to deliver the high standards that are required. You have started to discuss this, but can you expand on what steps are being taken to tackle workforce gaps in building management, and also outline the work that's happening in terms of setting national benchmarks and outcomes for building safety? This issue relates to people’s lives, their homes and their peace of mind. The Welsh Government needs to commit to a robust scheme that tackles not only the urgent need for remediation work, but also the structural and legislative changes that are required to ensure that such failings can never be repeated. I am pleased, therefore, to hear that there is some progress on the legislative side. I do encourage the Minister to keep transparency and the need for major structural change in play in order to ensure transparency, accountability and sufficient resources in all stages of these crucial reforms.”

“I've been informed of constituents' concerns in relation to the communication process for parents and young people who wish to share information with the north Wales safeguarding board as part of the child practice review that you've just mentioned, following the conviction of former headteacher Neil Foden for sexual offences against schoolchildren. Are you confident that the response is appropriate and timely for those who wish to provide information or share concerns? Secondly, has the remit of the child safeguarding review yet been published? This is crucial to ensure transparency and confidence in the process. If it hasn't been published yet, when will that happen and what is the reason for the delay? I remain convinced, as do an increasing number of people, that a public inquiry would be the best and fairest way of dealing with this situation, particularly given the further allegations that came to light in a recent television programme.
