Gadewch inni ddechrau. Yn gyntaf, hoffwn roi gwybod i'r Aelodau, yn unol â Rheol Sefydlog 26.87, fy mod wedi sefydlu a chyhoeddi amserlen ar gyfer balotau Biliau Aelod ar gyfer y seithfed Senedd. Cynhelir dau falot, y cyntaf ddydd Mercher 14 Hydref a'r ail ddydd Mercher 7 Gorffennaf 2027. Mae'r broses ar gyfer balotau Biliau Aelod yn newydd ar gyfer y seithfed Senedd. Am y tro cyntaf, bydd y rhain yn falotau enw yn unig. Bydd rhagor o fanylion am y balotau, ynghyd â gwybodaeth am yr hyfforddiant a fydd ar gael ar y broses o ran Biliau Aelod, yn cael eu cyhoeddi i'r holl Aelodau yr wythnos hon. Diolch.

Brif Weinidog, diolch. And as you've raised Standing Orders, I'm sure the Member who spoke was speaking on behalf of his constituents as well, whilst drawing on a personal experience. But, just to clarify, indeed, speaking on behalf of constituents is our imperative here. Carrie Harper.

Diolch, Brif Weinidog. Before I turn to the leader of Welsh Labour, can I just pick up on the point that was just made? This is a gentle reminder but a clear reminder that normally, out of respect for this Chamber, significant announcements would be made in the Chamber and then face scrutiny within the Chamber. So, I just ask the Government and the First Minister to reflect on that, rather than it being announced outside of this Chamber and then coming here. Ken Skates.
