Mae canran yr oedolion sy'n smygu bellach ar ei hisaf erioed. Dangosodd Arolwg Iechyd Cymru 2015 fod 19% o oedolion yn smygu, gostyngiad sylweddol o 25% yn 2005/6\. Mae hyn yn rhagori ar darged Llywodraeth Cymru o leihau cyfraddau smygu i 20% erbyn 2016\.  
Nododd y Gweinidog yr achlysur trwy ymweld ag Ysgol Gynradd Malpas Court yng Nghasnewydd. Yn ddiweddar mae'r ysgol wedi ennill y Wobr Ansawdd Genedlaethol fel rhan o Gynlluniau Ysgolion Iach \- Rhwydwaith Cymru (WNHSS) a hi yw’r 130ain ysgol yng Nghymru i wneud hynny. Mae defnyddio tybaco yn un o'r pynciau a gynhwysir o dan y cynllun. Siaradodd disgyblion â’r Gweinidog am smygu a rhannu eu syniadau am yr hyn y mae Cymru ddi\-fwg yn ei olygu iddynt.  
  
Dywedodd Clare Harvey, Cydgysylltydd Iechyd a Llesiant yn Ysgol Gynradd Malpas Court: "Fel ysgol ddi\-fwg, rydyn ni’n darparu amgylchedd sy'n diogelu ac yn hyrwyddo iechyd a llesiant y gymuned ysgol gyfan. Drwy ein cwricwlwm ABCh mae disgyblion yn dysgu sut mae smygu yn gaethiwus, yn ddrud a sut y gallai gael effaith andwyol ar eu hiechyd. Fel ysgol iach, rydyn ni’n buddsoddi yn addysg ein disgyblion am faterion o'r fath, sy'n eu hamddiffyn nhw a hefyd genedlaethau'r dyfodol. Rydyn ni’n falch o fod yn un o nifer bach o ysgolion yng Nghasnewydd i ennill Gwobr Ansawdd Genedlaethol Ysgolion Iach ac rydyn ni’n annog ein disgyblion i groesawu hyn ym mywyd beunyddiol yr ysgol."  
  
I helpu i barhau â’r llwyddiant hwn, mae’r Gweinidog wedi cyhoeddi cyllid o £417,000 dros dair blynedd i ASH Cymru, y sefydliad arweiniol yn y trydydd sector sy’n gweithio dros Gymru ddi\-fwg. Bydd y cyllid yn cyfrannu at gyflwyno Cynllun Gweithredu Llywodraeth Cymru ar Reoli Tybaco, sy'n anelu at leihau 16% ar nifer yr achosion o smygu ymhlith oedolion erbyn 2020\.  
  
Dywedodd Prif Weithredwr y grŵp sy’n ymgyrchu o blaid rheoli tybaco sef ASH Cymru, Suzanne Cass: "Mae’r gwaharddiad ar smygu yn un o'r camau pwysicaf y mae ein gwlad wedi eu cymryd i amddiffyn ein hiechyd. Ers i’r gwaharddiad ddod i rym yn 2007, rydyn ni wedi gweld newid anhygoel mewn agweddau tuag at smygu sydd wedi golygu bod 5% yn llai o bobl a 94,000 yn llai o oedolion yn dal i smygu.   
  
"Diolch i gyllid anhygoel hwn gan Lywodraeth Cymru, gallwn barhau i gydweithio i gefnogi’r 19% o’r rhai sy’n dal yn gaeth i dybaco i ddewis bywyd di\-fwg ac i fyw bywyd iachach, hapusach iddynt hwy eu hunain a'u teuluoedd."  
  
Dywedodd y Gweinidog: "Mae’r gwaharddiad ar smygu mewn mannau cyhoeddus dan do wedi bod yn llwyddiant ysgubol. Mae canran yr oedolion sy'n smygu bellach ar ei hisaf erioed. Bydd hyn yn gwella iechyd a disgwyliad oes pobl, a bydd yn lleihau'r pwysau ar y GIG.  
  
"Mae’n golygu hefyd fod cenedlaethau'r dyfodol yn cael eu hamddiffyn rhag effeithiau smygu, ac na fyddant, wrth dyfu i fyny, yn ystyried smygu’n weithgaredd arferol.  
  
"Rydyn ni’n parhau â’n hymdrechion i helpu smygwyr i roi'r gorau i’r arfer trwy dynnu eu sylw at wasanaethau am ddim yn y GIG i’w helpu i wneud hynny. Os caiff  Bil Iechyd y Cyhoedd ei basio bydd yn gwahardd smygu mewn meysydd chwarae, ysgolion a thiroedd ysbytai, i barhau â’r newid hynod mewn diwylliant rydyn ni wedi’i weld mewn perthynas â smygu yng Nghymru yn y blynyddoedd diwethaf. Rwyf am i bawb yng Nghymru 'Ddewis Di\-fwg'."

The percentage of adults smoking is now at a record low. The Welsh Health Survey 2015 showed that 19% of adults smoke, a significant decrease from 25% in 2005/6\. This has exceeded the Welsh Government target of reducing smoking rates to 20% by 2016\.

The Minister marked the occasion by visiting Malpas Court Primary School in Newport. The school has recently achieved the National Quality Award as part of the Welsh Network of Healthy School Schemes (WNHSS) and is the 130th School in Wales to do so. Tobacco use is one of the topics covered under the scheme. Pupils talked to the Minister about smoking and shared their thoughts on what a smokefree Wales means to them.  
  
Clare Harvey, Health and Wellbeing Coordinator  at Malpas Court Primary School said:


> “As a smokefree school, we provide an environment that protects and promotes the health and wellbeing of the entire school community.  Through our PSE curriculum pupils learn how smoking is addictive, expensive and could have a detrimental effect on their health.  As a Healthy School, we are invested in educating our pupils about such issues which protects them and our future generations. We are proud to be one of a small number of schools in Newport to be awarded the Healthy Schools NQA and we encourage our pupils to embrace this in daily school life.”

To help continue this success, the Minister has today announced funding of £417,000 over three years to ASH Wales, the leading third sector organisation working for a smokefree Wales.  The funding will contribute to the delivery of the Welsh Government’s Tobacco Control Action Plan, which aims to reduce the prevalence of adult smoking to 16% by 2020\.  
  
Chief Executive of the tobacco control campaign group ASH Wales Cymru, Suzanne Cass, said:


> “The smoking ban is one of the most important steps forward our nation has taken to protect our health. Since the ban was implemented in 2007, we have seen an incredible change in attitudes towards smoking which has resulted in 5% less people and 94,000 fewer adults still smoking. 
> 
> “Thanks to this incredible funding from Welsh Government, we can continue to work together to support the remaining 19% of those still addicted to tobacco to choose smokefree and lead a healthier, happier life for themselves and their families.”

  
The Minister said:


> “The ban on smoking in indoor public places has been a huge success. The percentage of adults smoking is now at a record low. This will improve people’s health and life expectancy, and will reduce pressures on the NHS.
> 
> “It also means that future generations are protected from the effects of smoking, and do not grow up seeing it as a normal activity.
> 
> “We are continuing our efforts  to support smokers to quit by signposting them to free NHS cessation services. If passed, the Public Health Bill will  ban smoking in playgrounds, schools and hospital grounds, to continue the remarkable culture\-change we have seen around smoking in Wales in recent years. I want everyone in Wales to ‘Choose Smokefree’.”
