Rhaid cyflwyno Cwestiynau Ysgrifenedig o leiaf bum diwrnod gwaith cyn y disgwylir iddynt gael eu hateb.  Yn ymarferol, bydd Gweinidogion yn ceisio ateb o fewn saith neu wyth diwrnod ond nid oes rheidrwydd arnynt i wneud hynny.  Caiff yr atebion eu cyhoeddi yn yr iaith y maent yn cael eu darparu, gyda chyfieithiad i'r Saesneg o ymatebion a ddarperir yn Gymraeg.

Gofyn i Brif Weinidog Cymru

Simon Thomas (Canolbarth a Gorllewin Cymru): A wnaiff y Prif Weinidog gyhoeddi'r ffigurau y tu ôl i'w osodiad i'r Cynulliad ar 3 Chwefror fod addysg yng Nghymru yn cael 8% yn fwy o arian nag addysg yn Lloegr? (WAQ68309W)

Mae'r ffigurau perthnasol yn nhabl A15 ac maent yn dangos y cafodd £1,520 ei wario ar addysg fesul pen o'r boblogaeth yn 2013-14.  Roedd y ffigwr hwn 8 y cant yn uwch na'r ffigwr ar gyfer Lloegr (£1,410 y pen).

Mae'r ffigurau hyn yn cynnwys gwariant ar addysg bellach ac addysg uwch ynghyd â gwariant ar ysgolion. Mae'r newidiadau sylweddol sydd wedi digwydd o fewn system ysgolion Lloegr wedi golygu nad yw'n bosibl cymharu'r gwariant fesul disgybl dros y blynyddoedd diwethaf.

Ken Skates:  I have not held any specific discussions with the Welsh Rugby Union nor Pro Rugby Wales in relation to the professional game in Wales as this is purely a matter for them.  However, I am aware that the WRU announced a new Rugby Services Agreement last August which will deliver more than £60 million into the professional game in Wales between now and 2020.   The Regional Services Agreement covers all rugby and player welfare aspects of the game and has introduced National Dual Contracts which are a radical change to the employment structure of professional players and are aimed at encouraging more Welsh players to remain in Wales with one of the regions.   The Agreement will also help sustain and develop professional rugby at regional level in Wales with a view to enhancing the talent available to progress to the senior national squad and from the player development pathway structure into regional rugby.

Andrew RT Davies (Canol De Cymru):  Pa drafodaethau y mae'r Gweinidog wedi'u cynnal gyda Chlwb Criced Morgannwg ynghylch effaith economaidd y tywydd gwael ar y clwb wrth gynnal gemau criced rhyngwladol, a pha gamau sy'n cael eu cymryd i liniaru'r effaith ariannol ar y clwb pan fo gornestau yn cael eu stopio oherwydd tywydd gwael?

Y Ddiprwy Weinidog Diwylliant, Chwaraeon a Thwristiaeth (Ken Skates): The Welsh Public Library Standards provide local authorities with specific guidance on providing quality library services. To maintain public access to libraries, the Welsh Public Library Standards outline recommended distances to library service points and access to resources remotely among a range of other important aspects. There are also a number of schemes which operate regionally to enable members of the public to access resources in university libraries. The Every Child A Library Member initiative is due to cover all Welsh local authorities by 2016.

In October 2014, I accepted the recommendations of the Expert Review of Public Libraries in Wales. As a consequence, work is underway to provide additional guidance relating to conducting public consultations, Equality Impact Assessments, developing library strategies and the relationship between community managed libraries and the statutory duties of local authorities to deliver 'comprehensive and efficient' library services. At my instigation, the Welsh Local Government Association has provided training to local authorities on conducting Equality Impact Assessments.

The Welsh Government is also promoting the development of libraries as sustainable community hubs delivering co-located services. From April 2015, Welsh Government grants to modernise libraries will only be provided for co-located services

Andrew RT Davies (Canol De Cymru):  Pa gamau sy'n cael eu cymryd gan Lywodraeth Cymru i sicrhau bod y hwb potensial i gyfranogiad mewn rygbi ar lawr gwlad  yn cael ei gyflawni o ganlyniad i gynnal gemau Cwpan Rygbi'r Byd? (WAQ68319)

Ken Skates: The Welsh Government has worked in partnership with the WRU and Cardiff City Council to help bring eight of the forthcoming Rugby World Cup Matches to the Millennium Stadium. This will help raise the profile of the game in Wales and place Wales on the world stage. 

I met recently with the WRU; they are committed to maximising the opportunities of staging World Cup games in Wales and have already have begun work to help stimulate growth in the game at grassroots level by establishing a new unified and aligned pathway system. This focuses on supporting the development of community and elite rugby across Wales providing a structure which supports club, school and representative rugby simultaneously. For example, last autumn, the WRU  launched their school club-hub programme through which, 40 schools and 3 FE colleges employ full time rugby officers to increase participation within schools across Wales which aims to strengthen the links to clubs and improving the sustainability of club rugby and long term player involvement.

Andrew RT Davies (Canol De Cymru):  Pa drafodaethau y mae'r Gweinidog wedi'u cynnal gyda'i Weinidog cyfatebol yn Llywodraeth y DU ynghylch sefyll yn ddiogel ac a fyddai'r Gweinidog yn cefnogi unrhyw newid yn y ddeddfwriaeth sy'n llywodraethu rheoliadau meysydd a allai arwain at gynnal cynllun peilot yng Nghymru? (WAQ68322)

Y Ddiprwy Weinidog Diwylliant, Chwaraeon a Thwristiaeth (Ken Skates): Safe standing is not a devolved issue and falls under the responsibility of the Department of Culture Media and Sport.  I have not held discussions with UK Government Ministers but have discussed the matter with the FAW who have advised that safe standing is not an issue in the Welsh Premier League as all grounds have both seating and standing areas.  Clubs such as Swansea City and Cardiff City come under the control of the English FA, therefore the FAW has no influence over them.
