I am pleased to announce that residential special schools in Wales have been defined as a new regulated service \- ‘*special school residential services’* \- under the Regulation and Inspection of Social Care (Wales) Act 2016\. 

In doing so, we are responding to the recommendation made by Independent Inquiry into Child Sexual Abuse for all residential special schools to be inspected against the quality standards used to regulate care homes in Wales. 

There are four maintained residential special schools in Wales which will fall within the scope of regulation. They provide a very valuable service to children and young people attending the schools and their families. The new regulations will enable existing and future special school residential services to register with the regulator, Care Inspectorate Wales, and will contribute towards establishing a more consistent approach to the regulatory oversight of services caring for vulnerable children. 

My officials have worked closely with a group of stakeholders including Care Inspectorate Wales, Social Care Wales, local authorities, and representatives from the existing residential special schools. Their contribution has been extremely helpful in developing regulations which are proportionate, relevant, and fit for purpose. 

I intend to complete the regulatory framework next month by bringing forward regulations which will place requirements on service providers and responsible individuals in terms of the quality and safety of the services they provide. I will also publish statutory guidance to support the regulations. 

All the regulations have been subject to public consultation, and I have published a report on the consultation outcome.

Mae’n bleser gennyf gyhoeddi bod ysgolion arbennig preswyl yng Nghymru wedi cael eu diffinio fel gwasanaeth rheoleiddiedig  newydd \- '*gwasanaethau preswyl ysgolion arbennig'* \- o dan Ddeddf Rheoleiddio ac Arolygu Gofal Cymdeithasol (Cymru) 2016\. 

Wrth wneud hynny, rydym yn ymateb i'r argymhelliad a wnaed gan yr Ymchwiliad Annibynnol i Gam\-drin Plant yn Rhywiol y dylai pob ysgol arbennig breswyl gael ei harolygu yn erbyn y safonau ansawdd a ddefnyddir i reoleiddio cartrefi gofal yng Nghymru. 

Mae pedair ysgol arbennig breswyl a gynhelir yng Nghymru a fydd yn dod o fewn y cwmpas rheoleiddio. Mae'r ysgolion hyn yn darparu gwasanaeth gwerthfawr iawn i blant a phobl ifanc sy'n mynychu'r ysgolion, a'u teuluoedd. Bydd y rheoliadau newydd yn galluogi gwasanaethau preswyl yr ysgolion arbennig presennol a rhai’r dyfodol i gofrestru gyda'r rheoleiddiwr, Arolygiaeth Gofal Cymru, a thrwy eu rheoleiddio fel hyn gellir gweithredu dull goruchwylio mwy cyson ar gyfer gwasanaethau sy'n gofalu am blant agored i niwed. 

Mae fy swyddogion wedi gweithio'n agos gyda grŵp o randdeiliaid, gan gynnwys Arolygiaeth Gofal Cymru, Gofal Cymdeithasol Cymru, awdurdodau lleol, a chynrychiolwyr o'r ysgolion arbennig preswyl presennol. Mae eu cyfraniad wedi bod o gymorth mawr wrth ddatblygu rheoliadau sy'n gymesur, yn berthnasol ac yn addas ar gyfer eu diben. 

Rwy'n bwriadu cwblhau'r fframwaith rheoleiddio yn ystod y mis nesaf drwy gyflwyno rheoliadau a fydd yn gosod gofynion ar ddarparwyr gwasanaethau ac unigolion cyfrifol o ran ansawdd a diogelwch y gwasanaethau y maent yn eu darparu. Byddaf hefyd yn cyhoeddi canllawiau statudol i gefnogi'r rheoliadau. 

Mae'r holl reoliadau wedi bod yn destun ymgynghoriad cyhoeddus, ac rwyf wedi cyhoeddi adroddiad ar ganlyniad yr ymgynghoriad hwnnw.
