When appointed as Minister for Health and Services last year, I indicated that one of my main priorities was to bring the three regional plans for service change in NHS Wales to a conclusion.  Following the recent agreement reached by the South Wales Programme, I am pleased to report that the first phase of the reconfiguration process in Wales is now complete.


As part of these developments I gave a commitment to a ‘lessons learned’ review of the reconfiguration process, once all three exercises had been completed.


In order to do so I have commissioned an external expert, Mrs Ann Lloyd, to lead the Review, and she will be supported by a small reference group with experience of major service change in the NHS.  


Mrs Lloyd is a former Director General of the Health and Social Care Department at the Welsh Government, a role which she held from 2001 until her retirement in 2009\.    Since then, she has undertaken a number of high profile roles, including as Health and Social Care Appointments Commissioner for London; Trustee of the Shaw Trust; and Chair of the Caxton Foundation.  She was also a Trustee of the Patients Association until 2013, and gave many national and international presentations on the importance of the involvement of the community and service users in the design and delivery of care.


The Review will include an engagement phase with key stakeholders including relevant Health Board officials, clinical representatives, patient groups and public interest groups including Local Authorities. It will engage with the Community Health Councils across Wales to capture their experience of the Service Reconfiguration process.


The Review will provide an assessment of the effectiveness of current service change guidance, and what improvements may be necessary.  It will also assess the role of Community Health Council in the whole process and provide advice on both the part they are asked to play in the consultation and referral processes; and their ability to discharge these responsibilities effectively.


The Review will be taken forward in 4 phases:


1. Initial scoping exercise and research into best practice;
2. An engagement exercise capturing experience and views of key relevant stakeholders;
3. An assessment of the evidence gathered; and
4. The production of a report which captures key lessons learned and provides recommendations for improvements to the Welsh Government Guidance.


I anticipate that the review team will present its interim report, including findings and any recommendations, to me before the end of the summer recess.


I have enclosed a copy of the of the Review’s Terms of Reference for your information.  I will continue to keep Members updated.

Wrth gael fy mhenodi'n Weinidog Iechyd a Gwasanaethau Cymdeithasol y llynedd, dywedais mai un o'm prif flaenoriaethau oedd cwblhau'r tri chynllun rhanbarthol ar gyfer cyflwyno newidiadau i wasanaethau GIG Cymru.  Yn sgil y cytundeb y daethpwyd iddo'n ddiweddar gan Raglen De Cymru, mae'n bleser gennyf gyhoeddi bod cam cyntaf y broses ad\-drefnu yng Nghymru bellach wedi'i gwblhau.


Fel rhan o’r datblygiadau hyn ymrwymais i gynnal adolygiad o’r ‘Gwersi a Ddysgwyd’ o’r broses ad\-drefnu, unwaith i’r tri ymarfer gael eu cwblhau.


Er mwyn gwneud hynny rwyf wedi comisiynu arbenigwr allanol, Mrs Ann Lloyd, i arwain yr Adolygiad, gyda chymorth grŵp cyfeirio bach sydd â phrofiad o gyflwyno newidiadau mawr i wasanaethau yn y GIG.  


Mae Mrs Lloyd yn gyn\-Gyfarwyddwr Cyffredinol Adran Iechyd a Gofal Cymdeithas Llywodraeth Cymru, rôl y bu'n ymgymryd â hi o 2001 tan ei hymddeoliad yn 2009\.    Ers hynny, mae wedi ymgymryd â nifer o rolau proffil uchel, gan gynnwys Comisiynydd Penodiadau Iechyd a Gofal Cymdeithasol ar gyfer Llundain; un o Ymddiriedolwyr Ymddiriedolaeth Shaw; a Chadeirydd Sefydliad Caxton.  Roedd hefyd yn un o Ymddiriedolwyr Cymdeithas y Cleifion tan 2013 a rhoddodd lawer o gyflwyniadau cenedlaethol a rhyngwladol ar bwysigrwydd cynnwys y gymuned a defnyddwyr gwasanaethau yn y broses o gynllunio a darparu gofal.


Bydd yr Adolygiad yn cynnwys cyfnod o ymgysylltu â rhanddeiliaid allweddol gan gynnwys swyddogion perthnasol Byrddau Iechyd, cynrychiolwyr clinigol, grwpiau cleifion a grwpiau er budd y cyhoedd gan gynnwys Awdurdodau Lleol. Bydd hefyd yn ymgysylltu â Chynghorau Iechyd Cymuned ledled Cymru er mwyn casglu eu profiadau o'r broses Ad\-drefnu Gwasanaethau.


Bydd yr Adolygiad yn asesu effeithiolrwydd y canllawiau cyfredol ar gyflwyno newidiadau i wasanaethau, a'r gwelliannau posibl. Bydd hefyd yn asesu rôl Cynghorau Iechyd Cymuned yn y broses gyfan ac yn rhoi cyngor ar y rôl y gofynnir iddynt ei chwarae o ran ymgynghori ac atgyfeirio; a'u gallu i gyflawni'r cyfrifoldebau hyn yn effeithiol.


Bydd pedwar cam i'r Adolygiad:


1. Ymarfer cwmpasu cychwynnol ac ymchwil i arfer gorau;
2. Ymarfer ymgysylltu er mwyn casglu profiadau a safbwyntiau rhanddeiliaid allweddol perthnasol;
3. Asesiad o'r dystiolaeth a gasglwyd;
4. Llunio adroddiad a fydd yn nodi'r gwersi allweddol a ddysgwyd ac yn cynnig argymhellion ar gyfer gwella Canllawiau Llywodraeth Cymru.


Rwy'n rhagweld y bydd tîm yr adolygiad yn cyflwyno ei adroddiad interim i mi, gan gynnwys canfyddiadau ac unrhyw argymhellion, cyn diwedd toriad yr haf.


Rwyf wedi amgáu copi o Gylch Gorchwyl yr Adolygiad er gwybodaeth.   

Sicrhaf fod Aelodau yn cael yr wybodaeth ddiweddaraf.
