Today I am publishing a consultation on our draft long\-term tobacco control Strategy, *A Smoke\-Free Wales* and our Delivery Plan *Towards a Smoke\-free Wales* *2022\-2024*. The draft Strategy sets out our ambition for Wales to be smoke\-free Wales by 2030; this means achieving a smoking prevalence rate in adults of 5% or less over the next eight years. To support the delivery of the Strategy, we will put in place a series of two\-year delivery plans, starting from 2022\-2024 which will set out, in detail the actions that we will undertake and support as we work towards a smoke\-free Wales.


The Programme for Government 2021\-2025 is clear that tackling health inequalities and focussing on prevention are priorities for the Welsh Government. Smoking is extremely harmful and damaging to health and remains one of the main causes of inequity in health in Wales. I therefore want us to ambitious and to take specific targeted action that will help us to reduce the harms from tobacco in Wales.


The publication of the draft Strategy and Delivery Plan is an opportunity to input on tobacco control in Wales and I am keen to hear everyone’s views. During the consultation process, which will run until 31 January 2022, we also plan to engage stakeholders and the public to hear their views and voices on our approach to tobacco control. I am particularly keen that those most closely affected by smoking and young people are part of that discussion and engagement.


I look forward to considering the responses from the consultation and engagement activities and aim for the Strategy and Delivery Plan to come into effect in spring 2022\. I am keen to ensure the Welsh Government is doing everything we can to prevent ill health and support people to make healthier choices for their health and wellbeing, and hope people from across Wales will have their say on how we progress towards building a smoke\-free Wales for all.

Heddiw, rwy’n cyhoeddi ymgynghoriad ar fersiwn drafft ein Strategaeth hirdymor ar reoli tybaco, *Cymru Ddi\-Fwg* a’n Cynllun Cyflawni, *Tuag at Gymru Ddi\-fwg 2022\-2024**.* Mae’r Strategaeth ddrafft yn amlinellu ein huchelgais i Gymru fod yn Gymru ddi\-fwg erbyn 2030\. Mae hyn yn golygu sicrhau cyfraddau smygu o 5% neu lai ymhlith oedolion dros yr wyth mlynedd nesaf. I gefnogi gweithrediad y Strategaeth, byddwn yn rhoi cyfres o gynlluniau gweithredu dwy flynedd yn eu lle, gan ddechrau o 2022\-2024\. Bydd rhain yn amlinellu’n fanwl y camau y byddwn yn eu cymryd ac yn eu cefnogi wrth inni weithio tuag at gyflawni Cymru ddi\-fwg.


Mae Rhaglen Lywodraethu 2021\-2025 yn glir bod mynd i’r afael ag anghydraddoldebau iechyd a chanolbwyntio ar atal smygu yn flaenoriaethau i Lywodraeth Cymru. Mae smygu yn hynod o niweidiol ac andwyol i iechyd, a dyna yw un o brif achosion anghydraddoldebau iechyd yng Nghymru o hyd. Rwyf felly am inni fod yn uchelgeisiol a chymryd camau penodol a fydd o gymorth i leihau effeithiau niweidiol tybaco yng Nghymru.


Mae cyhoeddiad y Strategaeth ddrafft a’r Cynllun Cyflawni yn gyfle i roi barn ar reoli tybaco yng Nghymru, ac rwy’n awyddus i glywed safbwyntiau pawb. Yn ystod y broses ymgynghori a fydd ar waith tan 31 Ionawr 2022, rydym hefyd yn cynllunio i ymgysylltu gyda rhanddeiliaid a’r cyhoedd i glywed eu barn a’u safbwyntiau ynghylch ein modd o ymdrin â rheoli tybaco. Rwy’n awyddus iawn i bobl ifanc a’r rheini sy’n cael eu heffeithio’n agos gan smygu fod yn rhan o’r drafodaeth a’r gwaith ymgysylltu.


Edrychaf ymlaen at ystyried yr ymatebion a geir o’r ymgynghoriad a’r gweithgareddau ymgysylltu. Y bwriad yw y daw’r Strategaeth a’r Cynllun Cyflawni i rym yn nhymor y gwanwyn 2022\. Rwy’n awyddus ein bod ni fel Llywodraeth Cymru yn gwneud popeth o fewn ein gallu i atal afiechyd a chefnogi pobl i wneud penderfyniadau iachach o ran eu hiechyd a’u llesiant. Rwy’n gobeithio y bydd pobl ledled Cymru yn rhoi eu barn ar sut i symud ymlaen at sicrhau Cymru ddi\-fwg i bawb.
