Fel rhan o gytundeb rhwng y pedair gwlad, mae’r Gweinidog Iechyd, Vaughan Gething, wedi cyhoeddi heddiw ei fod yn dileu’r cyfyngiadau hyn, a osodwyd gan SABTO (Pwyllgor Cynghori y DU ar Ddiogelwch Gwaed, Meinweoedd ac Organau) sydd wedi atal llawer o bobl LGBT\+ rhag rhoi gwaed. Bydd y newid yn dod i rym yn ystod yr haf 2021\.


Bydd Gwasanaeth Gwaed Cymru yn paratoi ar gyfer codi’r cyfyngiadau, gan newid rhai o’r cwestiynau sy’n cael eu gofyn i roddwyr gwaed er mwyn symud i ffwrdd oddi wrth waharddiad cyffredinol, gan ddechrau defnyddio asesiadau sy’n asesu’r rhoddwr fel unigolyn, waeth beth yw ei ryw, ei rywedd, neu ei gyfeiriadedd rhywiol.


Dywedodd y Gweinidog Iechyd, Vaughan Gething:



> “Bydd y cyhoeddiad hwn yn cael gwared ar y gwahaniaethu y mae llawer o bobl yn y gymuned LGBT\+ wedi ei wynebu. Mae llawer o bobl wedi gweithio’n galed iawn i gyrraedd y sefyllfa hon. Dw i’n hynod ddiolchgar iddyn nhw, ac wrth fy modd bod Llywodraeth Cymru wedi gallu cyflawni’r nod hwn sydd wedi bod yn uchelgais gennym ers amser hir.
> 
> 
> “Mae ein harbenigwyr a’n systemau meddygol wedi gwella’n fawr a bellach gallan nhw ddarparu sicrwydd sy’n golygu y gallwn gael gwared ar yr hen rwystrau sydd wedi golygu nad oedd yn bosibl i rai pobl LGBT\+ roi gwaed.  
> 
> 
> “Erbyn yr haf 2021, bydd y systemau newydd yn gwbl weithredol, a bydd y rheini’n systemau cadarn, diogel a chynhwysol.”


Dywedodd y Prif Weinidog, Mark Drakeford:



> “Mae hwn yn gyhoeddiad pwysig iawn, a dw i’n ei groesawu’n fawr. Mae rhoi gwaed yn gallu newid bywydau pobl, ac mae’n iawn bod pawb sy’n gallu rhoi gwaed yn cael y cyfle i helpu eraill. Mae hwn yn ddiwrnod da i’r gymuned LGBT\+ ac yn ddiwrnod da i’r gwasanaeth gwaed sy’n dibynnu ar ei roddwyr.”


Wrth drafod y cyhoeddiad, dywedodd Alan Prosser, Cyfarwyddwr Gwasanaeth Gwaed Cymru:



> “Mae’r newidiadau hyn yn dilyn nifer o flynyddoedd o waith caled gan grŵp llywio FAIR (O blaid Asesu Risg Unigoledig), sef menter gydweithredol ar draws y DU gyfan rhwng gweithwyr iechyd proffesiynol ac academyddion, ac y mae Gwasanaeth Gwaed Cymru wedi chwarae rôl bwysig ynddi.
> 
> 
> “Er nad gwasanaethau gwaed sy’n gyfrifol am bennu’r rheolau ynghylch pwy all roi gwaed a phwy all beidio, rydym wrth ein boddau bod gwaith y grŵp wedi arwain at ddatblygu cyfres o reoliadau newydd a fydd yn ein galluogi ni i groesawu mwy o roddwyr i’n clinigau.
> 
> 
> “Mae gwaith i’w wneud o hyd i roi’r rheoliadau newydd hyn ar waith, ond rydym yn falch iawn bod y newidiadau hyn wedi cael eu cyhoeddi, ac rydym yn edrych ymlaen at gael croesawu rhoddwyr newydd i’n clinigau yn 2021\.”

As part of a four\-nations agreement, Health Minister Vaughan Gething, has today announced the ending of restrictions, set by SABTO (The UK Advisory Committee on the Safety of Blood, Tissues and Organs) which has seen many LGBT\+ people unable to donate blood. The change will come into effect in summer 2021\.


The Welsh Blood Service (WBS) will prepare for the lifting of restrictions and make changes to some of the questions blood donors are asked in order to move away from blanket restrictions and to a more personalised assessment of donors which does not take account of their sex, gender or sexual orientation. 


Health Minister Vaughan Gething said:



> “This announcement will put an end to the discrimination many people in the LGBT\+ community have faced. So many people have worked so hard to get us to this position. I’m very grateful to them and delighted the Welsh Government has been able to see through this long\-standing ambition.
> 
> 
> “With the great progress and certainty that our medical experts and systems have brought, we can now remove the barriers that have long been in place and that have meant that some LGBT\+ people cannot easily donate blood.
> 
> 
> “In the summer of 2021 donation systems will be up and running, which mean our systems are robust, safe and no longer exclusionary.”


First Minister Mark Drakeford said:



> “This is a momentous announcement, which I very much welcome. Blood donation can change people’s lives and it is only right that everyone who can give blood, should be given the opportunity to help others. This is a great day for the LGBT\+ community and a great day for blood donation.”


Commenting on the announcement, Alan Prosser, Director of the Welsh Blood Service said:



> “These changes represent many years of hard work by the FAIR steering group which is a UK wide collaboration of healthcare professionals and academia within which the Welsh Blood Service has played an important role.
> 
> 
> “Whilst blood services are not responsible for setting the rules around who can and can’t donate we’re delighted that the work of the group has resulted in the development of a series of new regulations that will enable us to welcome more donors to our clinics.
> 
> 
> “There is still work to be done to implement these new regulations but we are delighted these changes have been announced and look forward to welcoming new donors to our clinics in 2021\.”
