We've got more adults learning Welsh than ever before. There's a whole host of Welsh language services available alongside Espedorech, and Welsh has made its mark in the digital world. We also know that this government has set an unprecedented and groundbreaking ambition to reach one million Welsh speakers by 2050. This has all happened after Saundersdewis' famous Tengedair iaith speech, a radical wake-up call on the fate of the language, when he warned that after the beginning of the 21st century, it would cease to exist as a living language. Well, we can be proud as a nation that this is not where we are. Our language is strong and our ambitions even stronger. And despite the challenges that we still face, we are determined to see our language flourish. You'll have seen the announcement that we'll be giving everyone the opportunity to reach their potential and learn the language free of charge up to the age of 25. I hope that we'll be giving many people another chance so that thousands of our young people can become confident bilingual citizens. I've said publicly before that we plan to introduce a 10-year workforce plan to ensure that we have the teachers that we need to increase Welsh media education in our schools. And in addition, from this September, we'll be providing free Welsh lessons to the education workforce teachers or teaching assistants so that more people in the sector can speak some Welsh to help our schools along the path towards more Welsh language provision over time. Our language belongs to us all. And I've been very clear that everything I do as Minister for the Welsh Language is going to be based on increasing the use of our language. Our Cymraeg 2050 strategy has two main aims. The first is the well-publicised aim to reach a million Welsh speakers. But the second is equally crucial, doubling daily use of the language. In the last few months alone, I've announced £600,000 for the Nationalist Eddvo towards hosting the event this year in Trigaron as we look to bring the festival to a new audience. £500,000 to provide free entry to the Eddvo in Denby in this centenary year. Funding for online taster courses for refugees and asylum seekers to learn Welsh without needing first to be fluent in English. And we've also supported Midyad Maithrin with £190,000 for work, including their Camworth-Gam school scheme, which gives young people the skills, qualifications and work experience to start a career in the Welsh medium childcare sector. And today I'm pleased to name 11 projects that will now be able to apply for funding from the Welsh medium capital grant totaling over £30 million. Here's a taste of what's been proposed. £5.6 million to build a brand new Welsh medium primary school with capacity for 150 full-time pupils in the Buckley or Maniff Issa area in Flintshire plus Welsh language immersion activities and adult learning to support the Welsh medium start-up provision. £4.4 million to create a dedicated Welsh language immersion centre and capacity for 228 additional pupil places at a school of strategy in Llanelli. Over £3 million in Gwynedd to increase the capacity of three schools in communities with more than 70% Welsh speakers and to fund the second phase of a project to expand the capacity and relocate language centres in the county. And in addition to this investment in Welsh medium education, I'm also announcing an additional £1.2 million for the new financial year to support the irreath recovery from the pandemic and to support the organisation to continue its activities which have been disrupted by COVID-19. The year does fantastic work in creating opportunities for young people to use Welsh outside of the classroom and this funding will support a network of irreath development officers across Wales as well as new support for Welsh medium apprenticeships within Wales's most deprived communities. Widening access to Welsh medium education and creating opportunities to use Welsh outside the classroom will open a door to a new world, to new friends, to new opportunities and a unique culture for so many young people. We've come so far and we know there's a long way to go but with our shared determination we will see our Welsh language grow ever stronger. Diolch yn fawr i'r bwysig bawb. Arnau draw i'n gyntaf at Bethan Lewis BBC Wales. Mae ydych chi'n gwaith mor fydig ar y beth fe allwgr i gael ymwneud yn ymgyrch am ddeg o wybod COVID-19 yn ysgol. Ysgol cwrs yn ysgrif iawn, a tydd gennym yn ysgrif iawn mewn ysgol fydd bod yr ysgol yn ein lleol ac ysgrif iawn. A hynny, mae hynny'n bryd amgylch ar gyfer masch yn gwrtod oedd oedd yn ddeigol llunafol. Gweithio'r ysgol a'r ysgrif iawn o'r mewn hynur yn ysgrif iawn am gwyng. Diolch, Bethan. Mae cwestiwn. Mae'n gwestiwn pwysig. Ni ar y syrnau, wrth gwrs, bod ni'n clachio'r cyfaniadau sydd yn cymdeithas ni'n gyffredinol i wneud hynny hefyd yn ysgolion ni. We're on that journey across society, aren't we, of lifting some of the restrictions which we've been living with for some time, and that will apply in schools as it does more broadly across society. As of this week, the start of the new half term schools will now be operating on the local control framework, which enables schools to vary their measures in schools to reflect the local circumstances of that school, and they'll reach that decision in discussions with their local public health and local education authority officials. For the time being, we're requiring schools generally, at least to be wearing, to asking staff and secondary learners to wear face masks in communal areas, but not in classrooms. I plan to keep that under very active review, but as you will know, coming back from a half term break, we need to keep an eye on the figures. In the period before the half term, they were coming down, and we hope and expect that will continue. I'll be keeping those measures under active weekly review, but the flexibility now we've provided to schools to operate on that framework will enable schools to reflect their local circumstances much more closely than they've been able to. Sorry, on the other hand, o ffynu lliatau pwy na'n gymraeg, cynnydd i ofyn y rai o gwestiwn. Well, just as wide, bod ni'n gyd ar y llwyb i'r tegat a codi'r cyfyniadau ni wedi bod yn bwg ydyn nhw yn engymraethau sy'n gyffredinol, a mae hynny'n wir yn ysgolion ni fel mae yn fwy aeang.

Felly, bydd rai ar bob rhan o'r ysgolion o fysiret sydd ar gaelu ysgolion.

Byddwn ni'n cadw yn y dan tros holwg parhau, ac yn sicr yn eisiau codi'r mesur hwnnw pan fydd yn adas i neud hynny. Ond ar ôl ar hannu'r tamor, mae'n bwysig bod ni dal yn cadw lligad ar y ysgolion, ond mae'n gweithio bod yma yn defnyddio bod ni'n casb i'r tamor, ond mae'n gweithio bod ni'n cadw hwnnw yn ddrasolog oedolol ar hyn o bryd.

Adrian Masters, ITV Wales. Thank you Minister. Could you say more about the kind of measures that have been considered, the concrete steps that have been considered to help the people of Ukraine, and would that include taking a number of Ukrainian refugees? Diolch, Adrian. I have a question. As I say, the First Minister will provide further details of this later on today, but the measures which the Welsh Government is proposing include a financial and humanitarian aid package to the Ukraine, which will provide support for those in desperate need, and we are discussing at the moment how best to make sure that package of support is most effectively deployed to support their needs. Also looking at what contribution we as a Government can make in relation to surplus medical equipment, we know that that's been a need which some in Ukraine have called for. We're looking at what we can do in that space. As you will know, the First Minister has made very clear our ongoing commitment as a nation of sanctuary that we stand ready to welcome people who need to leave Ukraine at this time, and the First Minister has also written to the Prime Minister to urge the UK Government, if you like, to go further and faster. We welcome the measures taken already, but we would urge them to go further and faster on that route and to strengthen the current arrangements in place for Ukrainian citizens to be able to come to the UK. We as a Government are talking to the Welsh Local Government Association and our colleagues in local government about how we can work together to support those who might be arriving in Wales as a consequence of what's unfolding in Ukraine. Thank you, and can you say what you make of the Welsh Conservative call for a St David's Day holiday? I know the Welsh Government's position on this, but as part of what the Welsh Conservatives are saying, they've criticised the your government for not lobbying successfully enough for it. Well, we've had a long-standing campaign, as you know, as a Welsh Government to seek the devolution of powers to Wales so that we can declare St David's Day what it should be, which is a national holiday for us all to celebrate our national identity with the bank holiday. I'm personally delighted that the Welsh Conservatives are prepared to lend their support to that campaign. I think what we want to see is an opportunity for Wales to celebrate its national day with a bank holiday for us all to come together to reflect on our pride as a nation, and I'm very pleased the Welsh Conservatives are of that view as well. Abii Wittig, Wales Online Thank you, Minister. You mentioned earlier that obviously schools have gone back this week after half-term still on that local framework to keep measures ramped up and down, depending on local circumstances. Is it your feeling that that framework will be needed into next term and possibly beyond? Well, Abii, as I say, we keep these matters under regular review really, and I think the move onto the framework, if you like, is a move into a space where we recognise that the situation in society at large and in our schools is improving from a Covid point of view, obviously. I think what the framework does provide is a very wide range of approaches which are available to schools and available, really a very short notice to respond to changes. So, I would hope and expect to see that schools over time move to the lower end of the interventions and the measures available in that framework, but there will be an ongoing need for schools and indeed all parts of society to continue having a regard to their local risk profiles. I think what the framework provides is a readily available tool to be able to respond in a proportionate way to changing circumstances. So, there's no plan to stand back down at a certain point? Well, we will want to make sure that schools are operating at the most proportionate level of intervention. As I say, I expect that over time to become at the low level of intervention and we'll just keep under review whether the framework remains a useful tool in all circumstances, but the great merit of it is that it is very flexible and allows schools to respond very nimbly, if you like, to changing circumstances. Thank you. Moving on to another matter, it's also associated with the pandemic. There have been repeated warnings of the mental health effects of the pandemic on children's learning and their mental health. Schools say that learning and well-being is their priority. Are you confident that the funding and mechanism is in place to provide children and teenagers with the CAMHS support they need? School leaders are constantly telling us they're a long waiting list for CAMHS. The NHS is saying the same. Are you confident that that help is there for children and young people in schools and colleges? If not, what are you doing about that? That's a very important question. I absolutely recognise the scale of the challenge. You will know probably that I've been working with my colleague Lynn Neagle in Government. We co-chair a delivery group which looks at the implementation in our school system of the whole-school approach to mental health and well-being. From the next financial year onwards, the budget in support of that will be significantly increased in each of the next three years, so that will provide additional resources into our schools to make sure that the targeted but also universal support which students and staff need is available, that there's training available for the education workforce at large, that the counselling provision in schools is extended, and that the roll-out of the in-school CAMHS activity that we've been piloting is able to be spread throughout our school system. There's absolutely a commitment on our part as a Government to ensure those services become more widely available and an increased funding to do that. In addition to that, as you will know, I'll be with the last two years, we've provided significant sums into the school system to support with pupil well-being in particular. You'll also know that from the next financial year onwards, that funding won't be available in terms of the settlement that we get from the UK Government as a consequence of the Barnett formula, but I have found in my budget funding to enable some of that to continue in each of the next three years, because I think it's absolutely vital that we continue to provide that support for our pupils' mental health and well-being, and I'm conscious as well as we approach the period when examinations are coming, that there will be some learners who are particularly anxious about that, and so today we're also launching a communications campaign to remind students and pupils of the support available for them in terms of preparing for their examinations and assessment, because I'm conscious that's another source of anxiety for some students, and I hope that that communications campaign will make it easier for them to find some of the support that's available to them. Thomas Davis, o globl ysgolwch yn awr. Good afternoon, Minister. Regarding the 1 million by 2050, many people from Wales obviously live outside of Wales. Does the Welsh Government want to eventually extend their 1 million by 2050 out to places outside of Wales where Welsh history and Welsh culture is somewhat significant in places like Cheshire, Shropshire, even Liverpool, even London? Well, it's a very good question, and we are very proud of our Welsh language in Wales, but also in terms of our profile both in other parts of the UK and across the world, and we think it's a really important part of the way in which we engage with other countries actually to celebrate our bilingualism, which in most countries in the world is actually a pretty normal state of affairs, so we're very proud of that as part of our international engagement. In terms of the availability of Welsh language teaching, actually there are lots of examples of people both in other parts of the UK and, indeed, internationally, which are taking advantage of some of the courses available by the Gnollfandesci Genedlaethol, for example, and are learning Welsh because they themselves have a connection with the nation, maybe they themselves are Welsh, and share our pride in the language and have decided they want to make sometimes the first steps towards learning it, and we would encourage them to do that. As I say, the Welsh language belongs to us all, felly Tomaswch yn gofyn i'n gwneud hynny beth yw cyrhaiddiad yng Nghymru ar gyfer y Gymraeg, a mae'n sicir bod hynny nes ni fel Cenedl ddweithog, yn un o'r pethau ni'n falch iawn o honyfau wrth bod ni'n ymwneud gyda gwledydd eraill ymrhydden aeth i hwnt, mae lawr iawn e'n rhaifftiau o bobol yn llwygau, rydych chi'n ralbain, rywerddon aeth i hwnt. Si'n ddweud siwys ymwanteisio ar wersi arlau yn yr yng Ngraifft gan y Gnollfandesci Genedlaethol, a mae hynny'n gryt. Ni'n angen rwy'n sydd ar gysylltuad ni'n dyddor y deb, gyda'r Gymraeg, ni'n gyda'r Chymru, os os gyda'n nhw dyddor y deb yn dysgu'r iaith, ni'n hanlwg nhw'n wneud hynny fel yw'n dweud mae'r Gymraeg yn perthu ni bob un hwnnw ni. Diolch yn fawr, y cwestiwn allan. Rhexym FFC's promotion of the Welsh language over the last year since the Hollywood Takeover has been significant with at least one half of the co-chairman learning a bit of Welsh himself singing a couple of verses of the anthem. How important is it or how can the Welsh Government really harness opportunities like these to help grow the language? Well, I think it's a really very good example, Thomas, of the kind of innovative and creative ways which people are discovering for themselves of sharing their pride and their joy in the Welsh language even if they themselves don't speak very much of it. Most people in Wales will be able to say a word or two at the very least. My encouragement to everybody who has any amount of Welsh is just to use as much of it as you can day by day, learn a few more words, put yourself on that path of learning more and more Welsh. There's a great welcome for you if you choose to do that. A large community of Welsh speakers who are ready to support and embrace you on that journey. I think what Ryan and Robb doing in rexham is a very good example of how individuals can lead the way in that. Rwy'n ffordd gredigol ac Arloesol, mae nhw wedi defnyddio i Llydaen i'r neges yn y Gymraeg, fe neges i fel gwneud o'i unrwy'n yng Nghymru. Mae'r amfwy a bobl yng Nghymru, fel yng Nghyliwyr i'r Llywodraeth a Gair neu dda i'n y Gymraeg, felly mae'r mwy amryw yng Ngreifftiau. Ar hyn nhw'n anodd pawb i'w defnyddio'r Gymraeg sy'n gyda'n nhw, fe'n bynnag i wef, just defnyddio'ch eraill bob dydd os gallwch chi a chynau gwych at hynny'n ddyddol. Os ychiar allw i byddwyd ysgiriau aeth, mae croeso mawr i chi, mae'r cymuned o'r siarad ymwyr sydd ymyr i fod yn gefnogol iawn o hwn o chi, felly cofio'ch bryg ymraeg yn perthyn i bob un o hwn o ni. Diolch yn fawr.
