Heddiw, rwy’n cyhoeddi canllawiau statudol i ddiogelu plant rhag camfanteisio rhywiol. Cyfrol 7 yw hon mewn cyfres o ganllawiau o dan faner ‘Gweithio Gyda’n Gilydd i Ddiogelu Pobl’ i helpu i weithredu’r darpariaethau diogelu yn Rhan 7 o Ddeddf Gwasanaethau Cymdeithasol a Llesiant (Cymru).


Mae’n 10 mlynedd bellach ers i Lywodraeth Cymru gyhoeddi’r canllawiau statudol cyntaf mewn perthynas â chamfanteisio’n rhywiol ar blant yng Nghymru. Dros y degawd diwethaf, rydym wedi dysgu drwy waith ymchwil ac arfer am y ffyrdd mwyaf effeithiol o atal problem cam\-drin a chamfanteisio’n rhywiol ar blant, diogelu plant sydd mewn perygl a chefnogi plant a phobl ifanc i ddod dros camdriniaeth. Datblygwyd y canllawiau ar y cyd â grŵp cynghori amlasiantaethol, dan gadeiryddiaeth Dr Sophie Hallett o Brifysgol Caerdydd, a ystyriodd y dystiolaeth hon. Yn bwysig iawn, mae’r canllawiau yn seiliedig hefyd ar dystiolaeth y plant a’r bobl ifanc eu hunain.


Ffurf ar gamdriniaeth rywiol yw camfanteisio’n rhywiol ar blant, ac mae’n achosi niwed sylweddol i blant a phobl ifanc, gan effeithio ar eu lles hyd yn oed ar ôl tyfu’n oedolion. Mae’n hollbwysig bod asiantaethau yn cydweithio i ddiogelu plant a’u cefnogi wrth ddod dros y gamdriniaeth. Mae’r canllawiau hyn, ynghyd â Gweithdrefnau Diogelu Cymru, yn darparu cyngor er mwyn hyrwyddo arferion diogelu cyson ar draws asiantaethau ac ar draws Cymru. Gwyddom ei bod yn bryd symud y tu hwnt i reoli risg yn unig tuag at hyrwyddo arferion sy’n rhoi’r lle canolog i’r plentyn, gan ystyried yr hyn sy’n bwysig i blant a phobl ifanc ac sy’n cefnogi eu lles nhw.


Rhaid i hyn ddigwydd ochr yn ochr â chamau i fynd i’r afael â’r rheini sy’n cam\-drin ac yn camfanteisio ar blant yn rhywiol, a chyhoeddir y canllawiau hyn ar y cyd ag Ysgrifennydd Gwladol Swyddfa Gartref y DU, sy’n arwain gwaith y mae’r heddlu a’r system cyfiawnder troseddol yn ei wneud yn y maes hwn.


Fu yna erioed adeg bwysicach i hyrwyddo gwaith sy’n diogelu plant a phobl ifanc, a bydd gweithredu’r canllawiau hyn yn gyfraniad mawr i leihau effaith pandemig Covid\-19\. Mae fy ymrwymiad yn glir i sicrhau bod plant yng Nghymru yn teimlo bod pobl yn gwrando arnynt, yn elwa ar arferion sy’n rhoi’r lle canolog i’r plentyn, ac yn gallu arfer eu hawl i fod yn saff.

Today, I am publishing, statutory guidance to safeguard children from child sexual exploitation. This is Volume 7 of a suite of guidance under the banner of ‘Working Together to Safeguard People’ to support implementation of the safeguarding provisions within Part 7 of the Social Services and Well\-being (Wales) Act 2014\.


It is now 10 years since the Welsh Government published the first statutory guidance on child sexual exploitation for Wales. Over the past decade, we have learnt from research and practice about the most effective ways to prevent abuse through child sexual exploitation, to protect children at risk and to support children and young people into recovery from abuse. The guidance was developed with a multi\-agency advisory group, chaired by Dr Sophie Hallett, Cardiff University, which considered this evidence. Importantly the guidance is also informed by evidence from children and young people themselves.


Child sexual exploitation is a form of child sexual abuse and causes significant harm to children and young people, affecting their well\-being into adulthood. It is vital that agencies work together to safeguard children and support their recovery from abuse. This guidance, together with the Wales Safeguarding Procedures provides advice to promote consistent safeguarding practice across agencies and across Wales. We know that it is time to move beyond risk management and to promote child\-centred practice, which considers what matters to children and young people and supports their well\-being.


This must happen in conjunction with work to tackle perpetrators of child sexual abuse and exploitation and this guidance is issued jointly with the Secretary of State for the Home Office, who leads work by the police and criminal justice system to tackle this crime.


There has never been a more important time to promote work to safeguard children and young people and the implementation of this guidance will make an important contribution in mitigating the impact of the Covid\-19 pandemic.  I am clear in my commitment to promote a position where children in Wales feel listened to, benefit from child\-centred practice and can realise their right to be safe.
