My sincere thanks, Llywydd.

Rwyf yn codi pwynt o drefn o dan 13.9 (iv) a 13.9 (v). Rwy’n dod o gefndir Gwyddelig-Seisnig, a daeth fy nhaid i Gaerdydd ar gwch o'r Yemen. Awgrymodd y Prif Weinidog fy mod i rywsut yn erbyn mewnfudo, ac fe’m cyhuddodd o beidio â hoffi mewnfudwyr. Rwyf wedi ymdrin â hiliaeth ar hyd fy oes. Rwyf wedi ymladd yn erbyn hiliaeth ar hyd fy oes, ac nid yw'n dderbyniol i’n Prif Weinidog— [Torri ar draws.]

What is a point—[Interruption.] Just hold on a minute. I will decide on what is a point of order; I do not need advice on that from Ministers. Carry on, Neil McEvoy.

Thank you. Diolch. I’ve fought racism all my life. I do not think it's acceptable for the First Minister of Wales to use such irresponsible language. Under 13.9(iv): it was discourteous; 13.9(v): it was offensive to somebody, especially with my background, and it has detracted from the dignity of this Assembly.

Thank you for the point of order. I did not hear anything out of order in the First Minister's comments today, but I will review the Record.
