English: If we look at recommendation 9, which was rejected, the Government's rationale is very confused, I think. It recommends that the Welsh Government should develop a method for assessing the appropriate mix of skills required for care home staff, and draw up guidance to ensure that there are safe and appropriate staffing levels in every care home. The Government rejects this by arguing that they don't need an additional mechanism because regulations are already in place that make it a requirement for care home providers to demonstrate how they have come to decisions on the staff mix that they need. But it is quite clear that those regulations don't deliver what this recommendation in our report is calling for. We are asking the Government to tell care homes what they should be doing and to put the guidance in place to assist those care homes to deliver that. What became clear to me is the role that pharmacists have to play, and they want to play a part - a far more prominent part - in resolving this problem. We need to empower them, and that's the kind of proactive action that we need to see from the Government. So, yes, I'm disappointed in the Government. I will close by echoing the words of the committee Chair, Dr Dai Lloyd, and words that have been spoken by others. We are talking, here, about contravening human rights. I am entirely convinced of that. Wanting to deal with that kind of human rights violation isn't something that you can accept in principle. Each and every one of us should be determined to do everything necessary to safeguard some of the most vulnerable people in our communities.
Welsh: Os edrychwn ni ar argymhelliad 9, yr un sy'n cael ei wrthod, mae rhesymeg y Llywodraeth yn ddryslyd iawn, rwy'n meddwl. Mae hwnnw'n argymell bod Llywodraeth Cymru'n datblygu dull ar gyfer asesu'r cyfuniad priodol o sgiliau sydd eu hangen ar gyfer staff y cartrefi gofal, a llunio canllawiau ar hyn i sicrhau bod lefelau staffio diogel a phriodol ym mhob cartref gofal. Mae'r Llywodraeth yn gwrthod hyn drwy ddadlau nad oes angen mecanwaith ychwanegol arnyn nhw am fod rheoliadau yn eu lle yn barod sy'n ei gwneud hi'n ofynnol i ddarparwyr cartrefi gofal ddangos sut maen nhw wedi dod i benderfyniad ynglŷn â'r math o staff sydd eu hangen arnyn nhw. Ond mae'n eithaf clir nad ydy'r rheoliadau yna'n cyflawni yr hyn mae yr argymhelliad yma yn ein hadroddiad ni yn gofyn amdano fo. Rŷm ni'n gofyn i'r Llywodraeth ddweud wrth gartrefi gofal beth ddylen nhw fod yn ei wneud a rhoi'r canllawiau mewn lle i helpu'r cartrefi gofal hynny. Yr un peth ddaeth yn amlwg i fi oedd gymaint o rôl sydd gan fferyllwyr i'w chwarae, ac maen nhw eisiau chwarae rhan llawer mwy blaengar mewn datrys y sefyllfa hon. Mae eisiau eu grymuso nhw, a dyna'r math o weithredu rhagweithiol rŷm ni angen ei weld gan y Llywodraeth. Felly, ydw, rwy'n siomedig yn y Llywodraeth yma. Mi wnaf gloi drwy atsain geiriau Cadeirydd y pwyllgor, Dr Dai Lloyd, a geiriau sydd wedi cael eu dweud gan eraill. Rŷm ni'n sôn am dramgwyddo hawliau dynol yn fan hyn. Rwy'n gwbl grediniol o hynny. Nid yw bod eisiau mynd i'r afael â'r math yna o dramgwyddo hawliau dynol yn rhywbeth y gallwch chi ei dderbyn mewn egwyddor. Mi ddylai pob un ohonom ni fod yn benderfynol o wneud popeth sydd ei angen er mwyn edrych ar ôl rhai o'r bobl fwyaf bregus sydd gennym ni.
