We are committed to providing the best value for money and that value is found by investing in Wales. As confirmation of the cross\-governmental theme outlined in a previous statement by Vaughan Gething, MS, Minister for Economy on supporting the Foundational Economy in Wales, we are pleased to launch our Foundational Economy in Health and Social Services 2021\-22 programme.


Health and social services spend represents more than half of the Welsh Government’s annual budget and we want to make that money work harder for Wales.


The programme focuses on 3 main areas:


* The direct goods and services we buy
* The workforce we directly employ
* How the location and co\-location of our services has an impact on communities and their access to all services


Working together in this way has already seen commitments of over £900,000 into Health and Social Services for specific projects. One of those pilot projects has already helped Welsh suppliers win an additional £11 million\-worth of healthcare contracts from April to October within this year. 


When making decisions about spending in the health and social services, just as in the wider public sector, the cheapest option often becomes a proxy for value for money. But low cost doesn’t always take into account where money is spent or what else it could achieve. If we spend money with a company wholly based outside Wales, for example, the only value to us in Wales, is the goods or services received – the money is no longer working to help people in Wales.


Through this programme, we want to prioritise spending Welsh public money in Wales, supporting Welsh companies wherever possible, which employ people and provide jobs and training in a local supply chain. When we spend Welsh taxpayers’ money it should support a local workforce and go into improving people’s lives and opportunities. In this way, that pound goes back into the Welsh economy and is spent in Welsh shops, on Welsh produce and on Welsh futures.


By recognising that value for money isn’t just the lowest cost of the bid but also the wider societal value of the companies we work with, we can use the buying and spending power of NHS Wales to improve the lives of people in Wales, as well as providing high\-quality health and social care.


The foundational economy is the money that is spent by our anchor institutions – it includes food for hospitals, salaries of our workforce, new building works and renovations and so much more.


As an employer, the biggest impact we can have on a community is making sure that local people have opportunities to train and find work in NHS Wales and social care at all levels. Our Programme for Government commitment to deliver the real living wage for care workers is another example of cross\-governmental priorities that will deliver both health and economic benefits.


When considering the value that our spending can add to communities in Wales, we can also make decisions about where services are based and how different services can be located together to make them even more accessible.


By valuing Wales in our spending we also help the environment. Shortening supply chains means not having to transport goods long distances. Shorter supply chains are also more resilient to global changes.


By changing how our foundational economy spends money in health and social care, we are looking to a future where every penny spent considers the real value of that money to people in Wales.

Rydym wedi ymrwymo i ddod o hyd i’r gwerth gorau am arian, a thrwy fuddsoddi yng Nghymru y mae modd canfod y gwerth hwnnw. Fel cadarnhad o’r thema draws\-lywodraethol a amlinellwyd mewn datganiad blaenorol gan Vaughan Gething AS, Gweinidog yr Economi ar gefnogi’r Economi Sylfaenol yng Nghymru, rydym yn falch o lansio ein Rhaglen yr Economi Sylfaenol ym maes Iechyd a Gwasanaethau Cymdeithasol 2021\-22\.


Mae gwariant ar iechyd a gwasanaethau cymdeithasol yn cynrychioli mwy na hanner cyllideb flynyddol Llywodraeth Cymru a hoffem wneud i’r arian hwnnw weithio’n galetach i Gymru.


Mae’r rhaglen yn canolbwyntio ar dri phrif faes:


* Y nwyddau a’r gwasanaethau uniongyrchol a brynwn
* Y gweithlu a gyflogwn yn uniongyrchol
* Sut mae lleoliad a chydleoliad ein gwasanaethau yn effeithio ar gymunedau a’u mynediad at bob gwasanaeth


Mae gweithio gyda’n gilydd fel hyn eisoes wedi gweld dros £900,000 yn cael ei ymrwymo i Iechyd a Gwasanaethau Cymdeithasol ar gyfer prosiectau penodol. Mae un o’r prosiectau peilot hyn eisoes wedi helpu cyflenwyr o Gymru i sicrhau gwerth £11 miliwn yn ychwanegol o gontractau gofal iechyd o fis Ebrill i fis Hydref yn ystod y flwyddyn hon.


Wrth wneud penderfyniadau am wariant ar iechyd a gwasanaethau cymdeithasol, fel yn y sector cyhoeddus yn ehangach, mae’r opsiwn rhataf yn aml yn brocsi ar gyfer gwerth am arian. Ond nid yw cost isel bob amser yn ystyried ble y caiff arian ei wario neu beth arall y gallai ei gyflawni. Os ydym yn gwario arian gyda chwmni sydd wedi’i leoli’n gyfan gwbl y tu allan i Gymru er enghraifft, yr unig werth inni yng Nghymru, yw’r nwyddau neu’r gwasanaethau a gawn – nid yw’r arian yn gweithio mwyach i helpu pobl yng Nghymru.


Drwy'r rhaglen hon, hoffem flaenoriaethu gwario arian cyhoeddus Cymru yng Nghymru, gan gefnogi cwmnïau o Gymru lle bynnag y bo’n bosibl, sy’n cyflogi a darparu swyddi a hyfforddiant mewn cadwyn gyflenwi leol. Pan wariwn arian trethdalwyr Cymru dylai gefnogi gweithlu lleol a mynd i wella bywydau a chyfleoedd pobl. Fel hyn, mae’r bunt honno’n mynd yn ôl i economi Cymru ac yn cael ei gwario mewn siopau yng Nghymru, ar gynnyrch o Gymru ac ar ddyfodol Cymru.


Drwy gydnabod bod gwerth am arian nid yn unig yn golygu’r pris isaf am y nwyddau neu’r gwasanaethau, ond hefyd gwerth cymdeithasol ehangach y cwmnïau yr ydym yn gweithio gyda nhw, gallwn ddefnyddio pŵer prynu a gwario GIG Cymru i wella bywydau pobl yng Nghymru, yn ogystal â darparu gwasanaethau iechyd a gwasanaethau cymdeithasol o ansawdd uchel.


Yr economi sylfaenol yw’r arian a gaiff ei wario gan ein sefydliadau angori \- mae’n cynnwys bwyd i ysbytai, cyflogau i’n gweithlu, gwaith adeiladu newydd ac adnewyddiadau, a llawer mwy.


Fel cyflogwr, yr effaith fwyaf y gallwn ei chael ar gymuned yw gwneud yn siŵr bod gan bobl leol gyfleoedd i hyfforddi a chael gwaith yn GIG Cymru a’r sector gofal cymdeithasol ar bob lefel. Mae ymrwymiad ein Rhaglen Lywodraethu i ddarparu’r cyflog byw cenedlaethol i weithwyr gofal yn enghraifft arall o flaenoriaethau traws\-lywodraethol a fydd yn sicrhau buddion i iechyd ac i’r economi.


Wrth ystyried y gwerth y gall ein gwariant ei ychwanegu at gymunedau yng Nghymru, gallwn hefyd wneud penderfyniadau ynghylch ble y caiff gwasanaethau eu lleoli a sut y gellir lleoli gwasanaethau gwahanol gyda’i gilydd i’w gwneud hyd yn oed yn fwy hygyrch.


Drwy roi gwerth ar Gymru yn ein harferion gwario, rydym hefyd yn helpu’r amgylchedd. Mae byrhau cadwyni cyflenwi yn golygu peidio â gorfod cludo nwyddau dros bellteroedd hir. Mae cadwyni cyflenwi byrrach hefyd yn fwy gwydn i newidiadau byd\-eang.


Drwy newid sut mae ein heconomi sylfaenol yn gwario arian ar iechyd a gwasanaethau cymdeithasol, rydym yn gobeithio am ddyfodol lle mae pob ceiniog a gaiff ei gwario yn ystyried gwerth gwirioneddol yr arian hwnnw i bobl yng Nghymru.
