Cafodd Deddf Rheoleiddio ac Arolygu Gofal Cymdeithasol (Cymru) 2016 Gydsyniad Brenhinol ar 18 Ionawr 2016\. Mae’r Ddeddf yn llunio sail i sefydlu fframwaith statudol newydd ar gyfer rheoleiddio ac arolygu gofal cymdeithasol yng Nghymru.  
  
Mae’r rheoliadau a wneir o dan y Ddeddf yn cael eu datblygu fesul cam, gan ymgynghori ac ymgysylltu â rhanddeiliaid allweddol.    
  
Ym mis Mehefin 2016, dechreuodd Llywodraeth Cymru gyfnod ymgynghori ffurfiol 12 wythnos o hyd ar gam cyntaf y rheoliadau i gael eu gwneud o dan y Ddeddf. Daeth y cyfnod ymgynghori hwnnw i ben ym mis Medi 2016, ac mae’r datganiad hwn yn rhoi’r diweddaraf i’r Aelodau Cynulliad am ganlyniad yr ymgynghoriad a’r camau nesaf, gan gynnwys gosod rheoliadau Cam 1\.  
  
Yn ystod y cyfnod ymgynghori 12 wythnos, cafodd dau ddigwyddiad eu cynnal a oedd yn cynnwys tua 130 o gynrychiolwyr o amrywiol gyrff rhanddeiliaid o bob cwr o Gymru. Yn dilyn y digwyddiadau hynny, roeddwn yn falch o dderbyn 48 o ymatebion ysgrifenedig o sylwedd gan ystod eang o unigolion, grwpiau cynrychiolwyr, llywodraeth leol a sefydliadau proffesiynol.    
  
Roedd yr ymateb cyffredinol yn gadarnhaol, gydag ymatebwyr yn mynegi cefnogaeth i egwyddorion a manylion y rheoliadau drafft. Mae’r ymatebion hyn wedi rhoi adborth gwerthfawr iawn inni ac rydym wedi defnyddio’r dystiolaeth i wneud newidiadau, sydd wedi datblygu a mireinio ein rheoliadau ymhellach.   
  
Mae rhagor o fanylion ynglŷn â chanlyniadau’r ymgynghoriad a’n hymateb ninnau i’w cael yn yr adroddiad cryno ar yr ymgynghoriad yr wyf yn ei gyhoeddi heddiw. Gellir gweld yr adroddiad yn:  
  
https://ymgyngoriadau.llyw.cymru/ymgyngoriadau/ymgynghoriad\-ar\-gam\-1\-y\-broses\-o\-roi\-deddf\-rheoleiddio\-ac\-arolygu\-gofal\-cymdeithasol

 Mae’r adroddiad yn tynnu sylw at y prif newidiadau i’r rheoliadau ynglŷn â’r gweithlu, gan gynnwys:  
  


 * Egluro’r amgylchiadau lle y bo’n rhaid i fyfyrwyr sy’n hyfforddi i fod yn weithwyr gofal cymdeithasol gofrestru.
* Egluro na fydd ‘canfyddiadau ffeithiol’ yn cael eu gwneud mewn achosion gorchmynion interim, boed hynny gerbron panel gorchmynion interim neu banel addasrwydd i ymarfer.
* Cyflwyno gwelliant i reoliadau ynglŷn â chyfansoddiad paneli er mwyn darparu mwy o eglurder ynghylch pwy na allant wasanaethu fel aelod o banel.
* Cyflwynwyd gwelliannau i reoliadau i sicrhau hefyd fod terminoleg y rheoliadau yn gyson â’r Ddeddf.

  
Bydd sylwadau eraill a dderbyniwyd fel rhan o’r broses ymgynghori yn cael eu defnyddio wrth baratoi templed ar gyfer adroddiad blynyddol yr awdurdodau lleol a’r pecyn cymorth a fydd yn cyd\-fynd â’r templed hwnnw, fel sy’n ofynnol yn ôl Rheoliadau Adroddiadau Blynyddol Gwasanaethau Cymdeithasol (Ffurf Ragnodedig) (Cymru) 2016, sydd i’w gosod y mis nesaf. Byddant yn cael eu defnyddio hefyd wrth ddrafftio rheoliadau ynglŷn ag arolygu a rheoleiddio gwasanaethau, a gwasanaethau eirioli wedi’u rheoleiddio, i’w cyflwyno yng Ngham 2\.    
  
Yn dilyn hyn, heddiw, byddaf yn gosod y rheoliadau ynglŷn â’r gweithlu a ganlyn, a ddiwygiwyd fel yr amlinellir uchod, gerbron y Cynulliad ar gyfer y broses graffu. Y nod yw sefydlu’r rhan hon o’r fframwaith statudol ymhell cyn y bwriedir iddo ddod i rym ar 3 Ebrill 2017:    
  
 * Rheoliadau Gofal Cymdeithasol Cymru (Ehangu Ystyr “Gweithiwr Gofal Cymdeithasol”) 2016 (Gweithdrefn Gadarnhaol)
* Rheoliadau Gofal Cymdeithasol Cymru (Pennu Gweithwyr Gofal Cymdeithasol) (Cofrestru) 2016 (Gweithdrefn Gadarnhaol)
* Rheoliadau Gofal Cymdeithasol Cymru (Cynnwys y Gofrestr) 2016 (Gweithdrefn Negyddol)
* Rheoliadau Gofal Cymdeithasol Cymru (Rhestr o Bersonau sydd wedi eu tynnu oddi ar y Gofrestr) 2016 (Gweithdrefn Negyddol)
* Rheoliadau Gofal Cymdeithasol Cymru (Cyfansoddiad Paneli: Personau Rhagnodedig) 2016 (Gweithdrefn Negyddol)
* Rheoliadau Gofal Cymdeithasol Cymru (Achosion gerbron Paneli) 2016 (Gweithdrefn Negyddol)

The Regulation and Inspection of Social Care (Wales) Act 2016 received Royal Assent on 18 January 2016\. The Act forms the basis of a new statutory framework for the regulation and inspection of social care in Wales.  

  

Regulations under the Act are being developed in phases, through consultation and engagement process with key stakeholders.  

  

In June 2016, the Welsh Government began a 12\-week formal consultation on the first phase of regulations to be made under the Act.  Following the end of that consultation in September 2016, this statement updates Assembly Members on the outcome of the consultation and on the next steps, including the laying of Phase 1 regulations.  

  

During the 12\-week consultation period, two events were held, involving around 130 delegates representing a wide range of stakeholder bodies from across Wales. Following these I was pleased to receive 48 substantive written responses from a broad mix of individuals, representative groups, local government and professional organisations.  

  

The overall response was positive, with respondents expressing support for the principles and the detail of the draft regulations. These responses have provided us with much valuable input and we have used this evidence to make changes as a result, further developing and refining our regulations.  

  

Further detail on the consultation outcomes and our response is available within the consultation summary report which I am publishing today.  The report can be accessed at:  

  

https://consultations.gov.wales/consultations/phase\-1\-implementation\-regulation\-and\-inspection\-social\-care\-wales\-act\-2016


The report highlights key changes to the workforce\-related regulations including:  

 


* Clarifying the circumstances in which student social care workers must be registered.
* Clarifying that a ‘finding of fact’ will not be made in interim order proceedings, whether before an interim orders panel or a fitness to practise panel.
* Amending the constitution of panels regulations to provide more clarity on who may not serve as a panel member.
* Amendments have also been made to ensure that the terminology of the regulations is consistent with that of the Act.


  

Other comments received as part of the consultation will be used in preparing the local authority annual report template and supporting toolkit, mandated by the Local Authority Social Services Annual Reports (Prescribed Form) Regulations 2016, to be laid next month; as well in the drafting of regulations around service inspection and regulation, and regulated advocacy services, to be brought forward in Phase 2\.  

  

Following on from this, today I will be laying the following workforce\-related regulations, revised as outlined above, before the Assembly for scrutiny, with a view to putting this part of the statutory framework in place well before its intended coming into force date of 3 April 2017:


 


 


* The Social Care Wales (Extension of Meaning of “Social Care Worker”) Regulations 2016 (Affirmative Procedure)
* The Social Care Wales (Specification of Social Care Workers) (Registration) Regulations 2016 (Affirmative Procedure)
* The Social Care Wales (Content of Register) Regulations 2016 (Negative Procedure)
* The Social Care Wales (List of Persons Removed from the Register) Regulations 2016 (Negative Procedure)
* The Social Care Wales (Constitution of Panels: Prescribed Persons) Regulations 2016 (Negative Procedure)
* The Social Care Wales (Proceedings before Panels) Regulations 2016 (Negative Procedure)


  

The regulations and associated explanatory memorandum, once laid, will be available for viewing at:
