I am pleased to be able to confirm today that all NHS organisations have met their statutory financial target to break\-even in 2012\-13 and all have received an unqualified opinion on their accounts from the Auditor General for Wales.


The Welsh Government has made no secret of the tough financial challenges NHS Wales has faced and continues to face as the UK Government continues to cut even deeper into the Welsh budget. Through careful financial management of the total health and social services budget, the NHS was able to generate a small surplus of £61k, despite the unprecedented levels of pressure on unscheduled care and other services.


Inevitably, some organisations within NHS Wales continued to experience greater structural financial challenges than others and needed additional financial support to meet their year end targets. Hywel Dda and Powys Health Boards received repayable brokerage of £2\.3 million and £4\.2 million respectively from other NHS organisations. These amounts have already been repaid to the contributing organisations at the start of 2013\-14\.


Members are aware that I consider the focus on meeting annual financial targets can be detrimental to the development and implementation of medium term plans for sustaining and enhancing safe and quality services. I announced recently that I will be introducing legislation to provide more flexibility to organisations to manage their finances over more than one financial year. The legislation is being drawn up and subject to its approval I hope to implement these changes at the start of the new financial year i.e. April 2014\.


In 2012/13 we started a move towards greater transparency and the measurement of outcomes which provide a renewed focus on patient quality and safety, particularly in the light of the Francis Report. This process continues in the current year.


In 2012\-13, NHS Wales has broken even without needing additional support from Welsh Government central reserves. This is a remarkable achievement, and is testament to the hard work of all NHS organisations and their staff. I offer them my thanks and congratulations.

Rwyf yn falch o allu cadarnhau heddiw bod pob un o gyrff y GIG wedi bodloni eu targed ariannol statudol i fantoli eu cyfrifon yn 2012\-13 a’u bod o gyd wedi cael barn ddiamod ar eu cyfrifon gan Archwilydd Cyffredinol Cymru.

Nid yw Llywodraeth Cymru wedi celu’r ffaith bod GIG Cymru wedi wynebu ac yn parhau i wynebu heriau ariannol anodd wrth i Lywodraeth y DU barhau i dorri cyllideb Cymru ymhellach byth. Trwy reoli cyfanswm y gyllideb iechyd a gwasanaethau cymdeithasol yn ofalus, bu modd i’r GIG gynhyrchu swm bach dros ben o £61k, a hynny er gwaethaf pwysau uwch nag erioed ar ofal heb ei amserlennu a gwasanaethau eraill.

Mae’n anochel bod rhai cyrff yn GIG Cymru wedi parhau i wynebu heriau ariannol strwythurol mwy difrifol na’i gilydd a bod arnynt angen cymorth ariannol ychwanegol i fodloni eu targedau diwedd blwyddyn. Cafodd Byrddau Iechyd Hywel Dda a Phowys froceriaeth ad\-daladwy o £2\.3 miliwn a  £4\.2 miliwn yn eu trefn oddi wrth gyrff eraill y GIG. Mae’r symiau hyn eisoes wedi’u had\-dalu i’r cyrff a gyfrannodd ar ddechrau 2013\-14\.

Mae’r aelodau’n ymwybodol fy mod o’r farn y gall y canolbwynt ar fodloni targedau ariannol blynyddol amharu ar ddatblygu a gweithredu cynlluniau tymor canol ar gyfer cynnal a gwella gwasanaethau diogel o safon. Cyhoeddais yn ddiweddar y byddaf yn cyflwyno deddfwriaeth i gynnig mwy o hyblygrwydd i gyrff i reoli eu cyllid dros fwy nag un flwyddyn ariannol. Mae’r ddeddfwriaeth yn cael ei llunio ac ar yr amod y caiff ei chymeradwyo rwyf yn gobeithio rhoi’r newidiadau hyn ar waith ar ddechrau’r flwyddyn ariannol newydd sef Ebrill 2014\.

Yn 2012/13 aethom ati i sicrhau mwy o dryloywder ac i fesur canlyniadau. Trwy wneud hyn bu modd i ni ganolbwyntio o’r newydd ar ddiogelwch y claf ac ansawdd eu gofal, yn enwedig yng ngoleuni Adroddiad Francis. Mae’r broses hon yn parhau yn y flwyddyn bresennol.

Yn 2012\-13, mae GIG Cymru wedi mantoli eu cyfrifon heb orfod troi at gronfeydd Llywodraeth Cymru am gymorth ychwanegol. Mae hyn yn dipyn o gamp, ac mae’n dyst i waith caled pob un o gyrff y GIG a’u staff. Hoffwn ddiolch iddynt a’u llongyfarch yn fawr
