Wel, rydw i’n cydnabod beth oedd yr Aelod yn ei ddweud, i ddechrau. Rydw i wedi clywed y Prif Weinidog yn dweud yr un peth dros y blynyddoedd am y pwysigrwydd o gymunedau traddodiadol lle mae’r Gymraeg yn cael ei defnyddio bod dydd.

On the wider point that he ended with, he’ll appreciate that those are part of wider debates that we are having and will want to go on having. There are a number of different forums, a number of different economic development organisations, that see themselves as being part of this picture. It is part of the reason why the previous Minister asked for this piece of work to be done—to help us to think through some of those issues to make sure that we have the structures in place that can assist those communities in the west and the south of Wales where the relationship between the way that services are provided, the way that languages are used, and the way that economic futures for those communities can be fashioned really do come together in a way that we need to make each strand reinforce the others, rather than pull apart from them. I am hopeful that this report will be of significant help to us in doing that. Today is simply about putting that report into the public domain and making sure that we have as fruitful a response to it as we are able to achieve.
