English: Thank you, Minister, for your statement, and how appropriate it is that this statement's being taken this week, given that it is national Baby Loss Awareness Week, as was described and touched on in the business statement and, I believe, some questions that the First Minister took as well. I'm also pleased to see the progress that is being made by the review panel and I'm grateful for the briefing that Members were able to receive some two weeks ago now with that panel. If I could ask a series of questions of the Minister in relation to his statement: he touched on, obviously, the current outbreak at the Royal Glamorgan Hospital of COVID-19, but also the other two hospitals that are in the Cwm Taf health board area are affected by outbreaks. I'd be grateful to understand whether maternity services have been affected at all, and are expectant mothers and families receiving a different level of service because of these outbreaks, because special restrictions have been put in place for other services at the hospitals? So, if you could clarify that. I'd also like to understand, when he touched on the staffing constraints at the birthing centre because of the earlier actions that were taken because of the COVID outbreak - can he give an assurance that those staffing constraints are now no longer in place and, once normal circumstances resume, there's no reason why the birthing centre couldn't fulfil its full role in supporting expectant mothers? I'd also like to understand as well, if possible, please, what level of support he understands the health board are putting in place for families that have been affected by this terrible episode in maternity care in the Cwm Taf area, along with the support for staff, in particular when it comes around to, obviously, the maternal category reviews, which he highlighted would be made available before Christmas. It is vital that, obviously, the families, as well as the staff, are supported when those reviews come out and some of their conclusions become public. Likewise, when he talks of the clinical review starting to emerge - and I fully understand, obviously, the current situation and that there will be delays in some of this information coming forward, but could he elaborate more on how long he thinks the feedback process might take? He did say it will take a little longer than desirable in his statement, but I think if he could clarify the length of time that we're working to, certainly from a Member of the Senedd's perspective who represents this area, it would be helpful when engaging with constituents if we could understand the length of time that he envisages or the review panel envisage. And, finally, when it comes to maternity services more generally across Wales, can he give an assurance that the issues were in the Cwm Taf area - and I know that he's given this assurance previously, but obviously some time has now elapsed - can he give us the assurance that maternity services in other parts of Wales are not suffering the same dilemma that Cwm Taf found itself in, which was a lack of governance, a lack of oversight that led to such tragic consequences for many expectant families on what should have been one of the most joyful occasions that anyone should experience in their lives? Thank you, Presiding Officer.
Welsh: Diolch, Gweinidog, am eich datganiad, ac mae mor briodol bod y datganiad hwn yn cael ei wneud yr wythnos hon, o gofio bod hi'n Wythnos Genedlaethol Ymwybyddiaeth Colli Babanod, fel y disgrifiwyd ac y crybwyllwyd yn y datganiad busnes a, chredaf, rai cwestiynau a wnaeth y Prif Weinidog ateb hefyd. Rwyf hefyd yn falch o weld y cynnydd sy'n cael ei wneud gan y panel adolygu ac rwy'n ddiolchgar am y briff yr oedd Aelodau wedi gallu ei gael tua phythefnos yn ôl gyda'r panel hwnnw. Hoffwn ofyn cyfres o gwestiynau i'r Gweinidog ynglŷn â'i ddatganiad: cyfeiriodd, yn amlwg, at yr achosion presennol o COVID-19 yn Ysbyty Brenhinol Morgannwg, ond hefyd mae achosion yn effeithio ar y ddau ysbyty arall sydd yn ardal bwrdd iechyd Cwm Taf. Byddwn yn ddiolchgar i ddeall os effeithiwyd ar wasanaethau mamolaeth o gwbl, ac a yw mamau beichiog a theuluoedd yn cael lefel wahanol o wasanaeth oherwydd yr achosion hyn, gan fod cyfyngiadau arbennig wedi'u rhoi ar waith ar gyfer gwasanaethau eraill yn yr ysbytai? Felly, pe gallech egluro hynny. Hoffwn ddeall hefyd, pan grybwyllwyd y cyfyngiadau staffio hynny yn y ganolfan eni oherwydd y camau cynharach a gymerwyd oherwydd yr achosion o COVID - a all roi sicrwydd nad yw'r cyfyngiadau staffio hynny bellach ar waith ac, unwaith y bydd amgylchiadau arferol yn ôl, nid oes rheswm pam na allai'r ganolfan eni gyflawni ei swyddogaeth lawn o ran cefnogi mamau beichiog? Hoffwn ddeall hefyd, os yn bosibl, pa lefel o gymorth y mae'n deall y mae'r bwrdd iechyd yn ei rhoi ar waith i deuluoedd y mae'r digwyddiad ofnadwy hwn mewn gofal mamolaeth wedi effeithio arnynt yn ardal Cwm Taf, ynghyd â'r cymorth i staff, yn enwedig o ran yr adolygiadau categori mamau, yn amlwg, y tynnodd sylw atynt, fyddai ar gael cyn y Nadolig. Mae'n hanfodol bod y teuluoedd, yn ogystal â'r staff, yn amlwg, yn cael eu cynorthwyo pan ddaw'r adolygiadau hynny allan a bod rhai o'u casgliadau'n dod yn gyhoeddus. Yn yr un modd, pan sonia am yr adolygiad clinigol yn dechrau dod i'r amlwg-ac rwy'n deall yn iawn, yn amlwg, y sefyllfa bresennol ac y bydd oedi cyn cyflwyno rhywfaint o'r wybodaeth hon, ond a allai ymhelaethu mwy ar faint o amser y mae'n credu y gallai'r broses adborth ei gymryd? Dywedodd y bydd yn cymryd ychydig mwy o amser na'r hyn y dymunai yn ei ddatganiad, ond credaf pe gallai egluro faint o amser yr ydym yn sôn amdano, yn sicr o safbwynt Aelod o'r Senedd sy'n cynrychioli'r ardal hon, byddai'n ddefnyddiol wrth ymgysylltu ag etholwyr pe gallem ddeall faint o amser y mae'n ei ragweld neu y mae'r panel adolygu yn ei ragweld. Ac, yn olaf, o ran gwasanaethau mamolaeth yn fwy cyffredinol ledled Cymru, a all roi sicrwydd bod y materion yn ardal Cwm Taf - a gwn ei fod wedi rhoi'r sicrwydd hwn o'r blaen, ond mae'n amlwg bod rhywfaint o amser wedi mynd heibio erbyn hyn - a all roi sicrwydd i ni nad yw gwasanaethau mamolaeth mewn rhannau eraill o Gymru yn dioddef yr un problemau a gafodd Cwm Taf, sef diffyg llywodraethu, diffyg goruchwyliaeth a arweiniodd at ganlyniadau mor drasig i lawer o deuluoedd ag aelod beichiog ar yr hyn a ddylai fod wedi bod yn un o'r achlysuron mwyaf llawen y byddai unrhyw un yn ei brofi yn ei fywyd? Diolch, Llywydd.
