Bydd yr Aelodau’n ymwybodol fy mod, ym mis Hydref y llynedd, wedi lansio ymgynghoriad ar dyllu cosmetig i bobl ifanc, ac roedd yn cynnwys nifer o gynigion ac yn ceisio barn am ffyrdd i wneud tyllu cosmetig yn fwy diogel i bobl ifanc. Roedd cryn ddiddordeb yn yr ymgynghoriad, ac roedd y rhan fwyaf o’r rhai a ymatebodd yn bendant o blaid ein cynigion. Mae crynodeb o’r ymatebion ar gael ar wefan Llywodraeth Cymru:   
Dyma gadarnhau mai fy mwriad yw symud ymlaen gyda’r cynigion i greu deddf a fydd yn ymdrin â materion megis:

* Oedran cydsynio gofynnol ar gyfer tyllu cosmetig. Bydd hyn yn golygu bod yn rhaid i riant neu warcheidwad fod gyda rhywun ifanc dan 16 mlwydd oed pan fyddant yn cael triniaeth tyllu cosmetig. Bydd hyn yn cynnwys triniaethau mwy cyffredin, megis tyllu llabed y glust.
* Cyfyngiad oedran pendant ar gyfer tyllu cosmetig personol (tyllu’r tethi neu’r genitalia). Bydd hyn yn gwahardd y rhai sy’n darparu triniaeth tyllu cosmetig rhag darparu triniaeth tyllu cosmetig personol i bobl ifanc dan 18 mlwydd oed.
* Ei gwneud yn ofynnol i’r sawl sy’n darparu triniaeth tyllu cosmetig gynnal sesiwn cyn pob triniaeth tyllu cosmetig, ni waeth beth fo oedran y sawl sy’n dymuno cael y driniaeth. Bydd y sesiwn hon yn ymdrin â’r canlynol, o leiaf:
+ A oes gan y sawl sy’n cael y driniaeth unrhyw broblemau iechyd sy’n golygu y bydd mewn mwy o berygl os caiff y driniaeth.
+ Sut y caiff y driniaeth ei rhoi, gan gynnwys unrhyw broblemau posibl.
+ Sut i ofalu am y twll er mwyn atal haint.

Diben y ddeddfwriaeth hon yw gostwng nifer yr heintiadau a’r cymhlethdodau ar ôl triniaeth sy’n gysylltiedig â thyllu cosmetig yng Nghymru. Trwy gael rhiant neu warcheidwad i chwarae rhan yn y driniaeth, dylai hynny fod o gymorth i leihau effaith unrhyw bwysau gan ffrindiau, cynorthwyo unigolyn i ddeall beth yw goblygiadau cael triniaeth tyllu cosmetig, a’u cynorthwyo i ddewis rhywun cyfrifol i wneud y driniaeth. 

O gael cyfyngiad oedran pendant ar driniaethau tyllu cosmetig, gallai hynny fod o gymorth i leihau’r achosion o gymhlethdodau ar ôl triniaeth, a gostwng nifer y bobl ifanc sy’n eu rhoi eu hunain mewn sefyllfa beryglus. Dylai sesiwn safonol cyn y driniaeth sicrhau bod unigolion yn ymwybodol beth yw goblygiadau’r driniaeth cyn iddi gael ei rhoi, a chael cyngor da ar ei hôl.

Rydym yn dal i ystyried rhai materion cyffredin a godwyd gan ymatebwyr i’r ymgynghoriad, megis atal tyllu cosmetig i blant ifanc sy’n rhy ifanc i gydsynio. Hefyd, nid oes penderfyniad eto am y cyfrwng deddfwriaethol priodol ar gyfer y ddeddfwriaeth newydd arfaethedig hon na’r amserlenni ar gyfer ei chyflwyno. Fy mwriad yw cyhoeddi rhagor o fanylion ac ymgynghori’n llawn yn eu cylch, unwaith y byddant wedi eu cwblhau’n derfynol.

Members will be aware I launched a consultation on the cosmetic piercing of young people in October last year, which included a number of proposals and sought views on how to make cosmetic piercing safer for young people. The consultation generated considerable interest and the majority of respondents were clearly in favour of our proposals. A summary of the consultation responses is available on the Welsh Government website.


 


I confirm it is my intention to move forward with proposals to make legislation which will cover issues such as:


 


* A minimum age of consent for cosmetic piercing. This will require a young person, below 16 years of age, to be accompanied by a parent or guardian when they want to have a cosmetic piercing procedure. This will include more common piercings, such as piercings of the ear lobes.


* A definitive age restriction for intimate cosmetic piercing (a piercing of the nipples or genitalia). This will prohibit cosmetic piercing operators carrying out intimate cosmetic piercings on young people below 18 years of age.


* A requirement for the cosmetic piercing operator to undertake a pre\-treatment consultation for all cosmetic piercing procedures, irrespective of the age of the person who wants to have the cosmetic piercing. This pre\-consultation will cover as a minimum:
	+ Whether the person being pierced has any health problems that may put them at greater risk if they have the piercing.
	+ How the piercing will be done, including any possible problems.
	+ How to look after the piercing to prevent infection.


 


The purpose of this legislation is to reduce the number of infections and post\-procedure complications associated with cosmetic piercings in Wales. The involvement of a parent or guardian should help to reduce the impact of pressure from friends, help an individual to understand the implications of having a cosmetic piercing and help  to choose a reputable piercer. 


Introducing a definitive age restriction for intimate cosmetic piercings should help to reduce the incidence of post\-procedure complications and reduce the number of young people placing themselves in a vulnerable situation. A standardised pre\-consultation should ensure individuals are aware of the implications of the procedure before it is conducted and are provided with good aftercare advice. 


Some common issues raised by consultation respondents, such as the prevention of cosmetic piercing of young children too young to give consent, are still under consideration. Also, the appropriate legislative vehicle for this proposed new legislation and timescales for introduction have yet to be determined. It is my intention for further details to be published for full consultation, once finalised.
