English: Well, clearly, measures such as these, and pre-custodial perpetrator programmes, can contribute to the early intervention and prevention agenda. Welsh Women's Aid have emphasised the importance of financial investment in prevention and early intervention by health boards and public health regional leads, given the cost to the NHS of picking up the pieces after domestic abuse and sexual violence has happened. However, they raised concerns with me in December that, whereas they received from the Welsh Government department for health and social services over £355,000 in 2016-17, towards specialist violence against women, domestic abuse, and sexual violence services, that figure had fallen to just over £34,000 in 2017-18, where they understand the Welsh Government has instead passed the funding to regional health boards for allocation, but they say this hasn't happened, and the funding's been lost to the specialist sector. How, therefore, do you respond to the concern expressed to you in the letter from the Chair of the Equality, Local Government and Communities Committee on 11 January, stating that the Welsh Government's response to their 2016 report on the implementation of the Violence against Women, Domestic Abuse and Sexual Violence (Wales) Act 2015 said that guidance would be published in relation to local strategies in July 2017, but this does not appear to have been published? And finally to post-legislative scrutiny, which indicates that Cardiff and Vale's well-being strategy doesn't contain mention of domestic or sexual abuse and how to tackle it, nor does Betsi Cadwaladr's strategy for the future, and Hywel Dda's strategy plan only mentions domestic abuse in relation to homelessness, and makes no mention of the Violence against Women, Domestic Abuse and Sexual Violence (Wales) Act 2015, nor how the health board plans to implement its aims.
Welsh: Wel, yn amlwg, gall mesurau fel y rhain, a rhaglenni cyn carchar i droseddwyr, gyfrannu at yr agenda atal ac ymyrraeth gynnar. Mae Cymorth i Fenywod Cymru wedi pwysleisio pwysigrwydd buddsoddiad ariannol gan fyrddau iechyd ac arweinwyr iechyd cyhoeddus rhanbarthol mewn atal ac ymyrraeth gynnar, o ystyried y gost yn y pen draw i'r GIG pan fydd cam-drin domestig a thrais rhywiol wedi digwydd. Fodd bynnag, ym mis Rhagfyr, daethant ataf i leisio pryderon, er eu bod wedi derbyn dros £355,000 gan adran iechyd a gofal cymdeithasol Llywodraeth Cymru yn 2016-17 tuag at wasanaethau arbenigol ar gyfer trais yn erbyn menywod, cam-drin domestig a thrais rhywiol, fod y ffigur hwnnw wedi gostwng i ychydig dros £34,000 yn 2017-18, ac maent yn deall bod Llywodraeth Cymru wedi trosglwyddo'r arian i fyrddau iechyd rhanbarthol ei ddyrannu yn lle hynny, ond maent yn dweud nad yw hynny wedi digwydd, ac mae'r cyllid wedi'i golli i'r sector arbenigol. Sut, felly, rydych yn ymateb i'r pryder a fynegwyd yn y llythyr a anfonwyd atoch gan Gadeirydd y Pwyllgor Cymunedau, Cydraddoldeb a Llywodraeth Leol ar 11 Ionawr, sy'n nodi bod ymateb Llywodraeth Cymru i'w hadroddiad yn 2016 ar weithredu Deddf Trais yn erbyn Menywod, Cam-drin Domestig a Thrais Rhywiol (Cymru) 2015 yn dweud y byddai canllawiau'n cael eu cyhoeddi mewn perthynas â strategaethau lleol ym mis Gorffennaf 2017, ond ymddengys nad yw hwn wedi cael ei gyhoeddi? Ac yn olaf, mewn perthynas â chraffu ar ôl deddfu, ymddengys nad yw strategaeth llesiant Caerdydd a'r Fro yn sôn gair am gam-drin domestig neu rywiol a sut i fynd i'r afael ag ef, na strategaeth Betsi Cadwaladr ar gyfer y dyfodol, ac nid yw cynllun strategaeth Hywel Dda ond yn sôn am gam-drin domestig mewn perthynas â digartrefedd, ac nid yw'n sôn am Ddeddf Trais yn erbyn Menywod, Cam-drin Domestig a Thrais Rhywiol (Cymru) 2015, na sut y mae'r bwrdd iechyd yn bwriadu gweithredu ei nodau.
