English: I think you're absolutely right; if we are genuinely interested, with the demands in front of us of a diverse workforce, in utilising the skills of every person of all different ages, including those with caring responsibilities as well, then there is a real job of awareness raising and support for employers to actually identify the needs of those individual carers, respond to them, and to enable them to enter the workplace along with caring responsibilities. Now, if a carer is a young adult carer, for example, aged between 16 and 25, as part of their assessment in transitioning forward, it must include an assessment of, for example, current or future transitions that that carer is likely to make into further or higher education, or to training, or to employment, and it must have due regard to what that young adult carer wishes to participate in. So, part of this is working with the individual carer on their individual plans, and then it's also working with employers. There is a big job of work to be done here with employers, particularly small and medium-sized employers, to open up the world of work then for carers, and to work with them on that. But we will take that forward, and I look forward to the work now of the ministerial advisory group on carers as well on taking forward all of the work streams that, Suzy, you referred to there, and feeding back to me as a Minister.
Welsh: Credaf eich bod yn llygad eich lle; os oes gennym ddiddordeb gwirioneddol, gyda'r galwadau sydd gennym am weithlu amrywiol, mewn defnyddio sgiliau pob person o bob gwahanol oedran, gan gynnwys y rhai â chyfrifoldebau gofalu yn ogystal, yna mae gennym waith go iawn i godi ymwybyddiaeth a sicrhau cefnogaeth i gyflogwyr allu nodi anghenion y gofalwyr unigol hynny, ymateb iddynt, a'u galluogi i fynd i mewn i'r gweithle gyda chyfrifoldebau gofalu. Nawr, os yw gofalwr yn oedolyn ifanc, er enghraifft, rhwng 16 a 25 oed, fel rhan o'u hasesiad wrth drawsnewid, mae'n rhaid iddo gynnwys asesiad, er enghraifft, o'r trawsnewidiadau cyfredol neu'r trawsnewidiadau y mae'r gofalwr hwnnw'n debygol o'u gwneud yn y dyfodol i addysg bellach neu addysg uwch, neu hyfforddiant, neu gyflogaeth, ac mae'n rhaid iddo roi sylw dyledus i'r hyn y mae'r oedolyn ifanc sy'n ofalwr yn dymuno cymryd rhan ynddo. Felly, mae rhan o hyn yn golygu gweithio gyda'r gofalwr unigol ar eu cynlluniau unigol, ac yna gweithio gyda chyflogwyr hefyd. Mae gwaith mawr i'w wneud yma gyda chyflogwyr, yn enwedig cyflogwyr bach a chanolig, i agor y byd gwaith ar gyfer gofalwyr, ac i weithio gyda hwy ar hynny. Ond byddwn yn bwrw ymlaen â hynny, ac edrychaf ymlaen yn awr at waith grŵp cynghori'r Gweinidog ar ofalwyr hefyd ar ddatblygu'r holl ffrydiau gwaith rydych chi, Suzy, newydd gyfeirio atynt, a'u bwydo yn ôl i mi fel Gweinidog.
English: Indeed. I'll respond, Caroline, if I may, on behalf of the Cabinet Secretary. The Social Services and Well-being (Wales) Act 2014 sets out our commitment to ensuring the provision of services, care and support for all people, including disabled people, with the key priority being on improving their well-being.
Welsh: Yn wir. Fe ymatebaf, Caroline, os caf fi, ar ran Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet. Mae Deddf Gwasanaethau Cymdeithasol a Llesiant (Cymru) 2014 yn nodi ein hymrwymiad i sicrhau ein bod yn darparu gwasanaethau, gofal a chymorth i bawb, gan gynnwys pobl anabl, gyda'r flaenoriaeth allweddol ar wella eu lles.
English: Thank you, Minister. As you're no doubt aware, one of my constituents, Paul Davies, an inspirational paralympian, is struggling to train for Tokyo 2020 because of a lack of support from his local authority social services department. Unless Paul gets the help he needs to attend training sessions, he will not qualify and not only will Wales lose one of its medal hopefuls, but we will be denying Paul the chance to reach his full potential. Minister, if Paul lived in a different local authority, he would be supported, as has been proven in my research. I've almost exhausted all channels here with Paul Davies, who is a bronze medallist already. So, what is the Welsh Government doing to end the postcode lottery in social care, and, on this particular case, will you work with me to find a resolution so that Paul can attend? Thank you.
Welsh: Diolch i chi, Weinidog. Fel y byddwch yn ymwybodol, mae un o fy etholwyr, Paul Davies, paralympiad ysbrydoledig, yn brwydro i hyfforddi ar gyfer Tokyo 2020 oherwydd diffyg cefnogaeth gan adran gwasanaethau cymdeithasol ei awdurdod lleol. Oni bai bod Paul yn cael y cymorth y mae ei angen i fynychu sesiynau hyfforddi, ni fydd yn ennill lle yn y tîm, ac nid yn unig y bydd Cymru'n colli un o'i gobeithion am fedal ond byddwn yn gwarafun cyfle i Paul gyrraedd ei lawn botensial. Weinidog, pe bai Paul yn byw mewn awdurdod lleol gwahanol, byddai'n cael ei gefnogi, fel sydd wedi'i brofi yn fy ngwaith ymchwil. Rwyf wedi dihysbyddu pob sianel bron gyda Paul Davies, sydd eisoes yn enillydd medal efydd. Felly, beth y mae Llywodraeth Cymru yn ei wneud i roi diwedd ar y loteri cod post mewn gofal cymdeithasol, ac yn yr achos penodol hwn, a wnewch chi weithio gyda mi i ddod o hyd i ateb fel y gall Paul fynychu'r gemau? Diolch.
English: Caroline, I think you've probably done a favour in some way by raising it today, because the local authority, who are minded, by the way, to put the very right care and support, not simply for care but also for independent living, and part of independent living also is the ability to pursue sports, hobbies and the lifestyle that everybody should be entitled to - . Now, I know that they are keen to do that. It's difficult for me to comment on the individual case, but I think, in raising it today, both the local authority and the sport governing bodies as well will be acutely aware of the necessity of protecting the lifestyle and the interests of Paul, who has excelled as a paralympian. He looks to do more in the future as well, and we wish him well with that as well. Could I suggest that, if you can, with your constituent, you continue to engage with the front-line social services who are trying to devise a package with Paul? It's an ongoing procedure, so I understand. It's highly complex, but they have a willingness to engage with it, and I hope they can come to a point, in line with the Social Services and Well-being (Wales) Act 2014 and in line with that idea of co-producing packages that are agreed with individuals rather than imposed on individuals - I know it's a difficult process - where they come to the right package for Paul that allows him to pursue not only his sporting ambitions, but also that independent style of living. I know there's a willingness from the local authority to do that, so please engage with them.
Welsh: Caroline, credaf eich bod, mae'n debyg, wedi gwneud cymwynas mewn rhyw ffordd drwy godi'r mater heddiw, oherwydd mae'r awdurdod lleol, sy'n ceisio rhoi'r gofal a'r cymorth cywir gyda llaw, nid yn unig o ran gofal, ond hefyd o ran byw'n annibynnol, a rhan o fyw'n annibynnol hefyd yw'r gallu i ymgymryd â chwaraeon, hobïau a'r ffordd o fyw y dylai pawb fod â hawl iddi - . Nawr, gwn eu bod yn awyddus i wneud hynny. Mae'n anodd i mi wneud sylw ar yr achos unigol, ond drwy ei godi heddiw, rwy'n credu y bydd yr awdurdod lleol a'r cyrff llywodraethu chwaraeon hefyd yn ymwybodol iawn o'r angen i ddiogelu ffordd o fyw a buddiannau Paul, sydd wedi rhagori fel paralympiad. Mae'n bwriadu gwneud mwy yn y dyfodol hefyd, ac rydym yn dymuno'n dda iddo gyda hynny yn ogystal. A gaf fi awgrymu eich bod, os gallwch, gyda'ch etholwr, yn parhau i ymgysylltu â gwasanaethau cymdeithasol rheng flaen sy'n ceisio dyfeisio pecyn gyda Paul? Mae'n broses barhaus, yn ôl yr hyn a ddeallaf. Mae'n gymhleth iawn, ond maent yn barod i'w wneud, a gobeithiaf y byddant yn gallu dod i'r pwynt, yn unol â Deddf Gwasanaethau Cymdeithasol a Llesiant (Cymru) 2014 ac yn unol â'r syniad hwnnw o gyd-gynhyrchu pecynnau sy'n cael eu cytuno gydag unigolion yn hytrach na'u gorfodi ar unigolion - gwn ei bod yn broses anodd - lle byddant yn dod o hyd i'r pecyn cywir i Paul a fydd yn caniatáu iddo ddilyn ei uchelgeisiau chwaraeon yn ogystal â byw'n annibynnol. Gwn fod yna barodrwydd yn yr awdurdod lleol i wneud hynny, felly cysylltwch â hwy os gwelwch yn dda.
English: In your response there to Caroline Jones, Minister, you mentioned improving the well-being of disabled people, which would, of course, include wider public understanding of some of he barriers that they may face. In January this year, I held a short debate on a scores-on-the-doors policy about disabled access, following a petition from the Bridgend Coalition of Disabled People. At that time, the Cabinet Secretary said he was keen to hear practical suggestions about how such a scheme could work. One of the other objectives of the policy is to nudge businesses into wanting to improve access to buildings. The principal advisers on that, of course, should people with disabilities, but I can see that occupational therapists, either NHS or local authority, who work in reablement, would also have advice to offer here when it comes to the design of those improvements. So, would you be happy to meet representatives of the Bridgend Coalition of Disabled People to learn more about their original idea and to flesh out some of the practicalities?
Welsh: Yn eich ymateb i Caroline Jones, Weinidog, soniasoch am wella lles pobl anabl, a byddai hynny, wrth gwrs, yn cynnwys helpu'r cyhoedd yn ehangach i ddeall rhai o'r rhwystrau y maent yn eu hwynebu. Ym mis Ionawr eleni, cynhaliais ddadl fer ar bolisi sgoriau ar y drysau mewn perthynas â mynediad ar gyfer pobl anabl, yn dilyn deiseb gan Gynghrair Pobl Anabl Pen-y-bont ar Ogwr. Ar y pryd, dywedodd Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet ei fod yn awyddus i glywed awgrymiadau ymarferol ynglŷn â sut y gallai cynllun o'r fath weithio. Un o amcanion eraill y polisi yw rhoi hwb i fusnesau i fod eisiau gwella mynediad i adeiladau. Dylai'r prif gynghorwyr ar hynny, wrth gwrs, fod yn bobl sydd ag anableddau, ond gallaf weld y byddai gan therapyddion galwedigaethol, yn y GIG neu'r awdurdod lleol, sy'n gweithio ym maes ailalluogi, gyngor i'w gynnig yma ar gynllunio'r gwelliannau hynny. Felly, a fyddech yn hapus i gyfarfod â chynrychiolwyr Cynghrair Pobl Anabl Pen-y-bont ar Ogwr i ddysgu mwy am eu syniad gwreiddiol ac i ddatblygu rhai o'r materion ymarferol?
English: Thank you. We have a way of working in Wales that is to do with sitting down with people and working through things together. I'm more than happy to meet. I know Simon well, personally and individually - you do as well, I know. He's a great individual. He's a campaigning fireball, he really is. It is an interesting idea and I think it does have some merit. We need to think it through though and we probably need to talk this through: what is the best approach that will make it a situation where any person with a range of disabilities knows - and he's flagged it up in terms of the food signposting that we do, the hygiene ratings and so on - whether there is some way of doing this? It might be his model or it might be something else, but I'm more than happy to sit down with you and others, and with Simon as well, and talk through what we may be able to do and to avoid any negative unintended consequences. Let's get it right if we're going to take something forward.
Welsh: Diolch. Mae gennym ffordd o weithio yng Nghymru sy'n ymwneud ag eistedd gyda phobl a datrys pethau gyda'n gilydd. Rwy'n fwy na pharod i gyfarfod. Rwy'n adnabod Simon yn dda, yn bersonol ac yn unigol - gwn eich bod chi hefyd. Mae'n unigolyn gwych. Mae'n ymgyrchwr brwd iawn yn wir. Mae'n syniad diddorol ac rwy'n credu bod rhinweddau ynddo. Mae angen i ni feddwl drwyddo er hynny ac mae'n debyg y bydd angen i ni ei drafod: beth yw'r dull gorau o sicrhau y bydd yn sefyllfa lle y bydd unrhyw berson gydag ystod o anableddau yn gwybod - ac mae wedi tynnu sylw ato o ran yr arwyddion bwyd a wnawn, y sgoriau hylendid ac ati - pa un a oes rhyw ffordd o wneud hyn? Gallai fod yn fodel ganddo ef neu gallai fod yn rhywbeth arall, ond rwy'n fwy na hapus i eistedd gyda chi ac eraill, a chyda Simon yn ogystal, a siarad am yr hyn y gallem ei wneud ac osgoi unrhyw ganlyniadau negyddol anfwriadol. Gadewch i ni wneud pethau'n iawn os ydym am fwrw ymlaen â rhywbeth.
English: Thank you for the question. The Betsi Cadwaladr University Local Health Board and the Welsh renal clinical network are currently going through a dialogue process with service providers for chronic haemodialysis service. It is recognised that Wales leads the UK in terms of access to renal dialysis in ensuring that over 90 per cent of the population can access dialysis within a 30-minute travel time. In north Wales, we want to see an expansion of the service to further support this approach and continue to improve both access and outcomes for patients.
Welsh: Diolch i chi am y cwestiwn. Mae Bwrdd Iechyd Lleol Prifysgol Betsi Cadwaladr a rhwydwaith clinigol arennol Cymru wrthi'n trafod gyda darparwyr gwasanaeth ar gyfer gwasanaeth hemodialysis cronig ar hyn o bryd. Cydnabyddir bod Cymru yn arwain y DU o ran mynediad at ddialysis arennol drwy sicrhau bod dros 90 y cant o'r boblogaeth yn gallu cael mynediad at ddialysis o fewn amser teithio o 30 munud. Yng ngogledd Cymru, rydym eisiau ehangu'r gwasanaeth er mwyn rhoi cymorth pellach i'r dull hwn a pharhau i wella mynediad a chanlyniadau ar gyfer cleifion.
English: Thank you for that answer, but I understand that the renal services are currently delivered either by the NHS, an independent provider or a combination of both. In February, the health board stated that the current independent provider was due to be recommissioned in the Bangor unit and the satellite unit in Alltwen. Following on from this, concerns were raised about potential changes to terms and conditions for staff taken on by whomsoever might win the next contract. Cabinet Secretary, I would like to know if the existing workforce will be guaranteed the same terms and conditions as they previously enjoyed and that patients will continue to receive the same high standard of care that they deserve as close to home as is possible.
Welsh: Diolch i chi am yr ateb hwnnw, ond deallaf fod y gwasanaethau arennol ar hyn o bryd yn cael eu darparu naill ai gan y GIG, gan ddarparwr annibynnol neu gyfuniad o'r ddau. Ym mis Chwefror, dywedodd y bwrdd iechyd y bydd y darparwr annibynnol cyfredol yn cael ei ailgomisiynu yn uned Bangor a'r uned ategol yn Alltwen. Yn dilyn hyn, mynegwyd pryderon am newidiadau posibl i'r telerau ac amodau ar gyfer staff a gyflogir gan bwy bynnag a fydd yn ennill y contract nesaf. Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet, hoffwn wybod a fydd y gweithlu presennol yn sicr o gael yr un telerau ac amodau ag y maent wedi'u mwynhau yn y gorffennol ac y bydd cleifion yn parhau i gael gofal o'r un safon uchel ag y maent yn ei haeddu mor agos at adref ag y bo modd.
English: Thank you for the question. I know there have been questions about this broad area previously. I want to reiterate that the opportunity has been taken to look at the whole service to further expand and improve the service to make sure that care is closer to home for a greater number of people. So, patient representatives, trade unions and HR representatives have been invited into the process to develop renal services, together, of course, with clinicians. I'm happy to set out again that all specialist renal services and consultant care will continue to be provided by the national health service. No decision has been made on the final model, but I want to reiterate this very clearly: this Government will not approve the transfer of NHS staff into the private sector. I want to be really clear and upfront about that, because I do know that some members of staff are concerned about their future within the national health service.
Welsh: Diolch i chi am y cwestiwn. Gwn fod cwestiynau wedi bod am y maes eang hwn o'r blaen. Hoffwn ailadrodd y cymerwyd y cyfle i edrych ar y gwasanaeth cyfan i ehangu a gwella gwasanaethau ymhellach er mwyn gwneud yn siŵr fod gofal yn nes at adref i nifer fwy o bobl. Felly, mae cynrychiolwyr cleifion, undebau llafur a chynrychiolwyr adnoddau dynol wedi'u gwahodd i mewn i'r broses er mwyn datblygu gwasanaethau arennol, ynghyd â chlinigwyr wrth gwrs. Rwy'n hapus i nodi unwaith eto y bydd yr holl wasanaethau arennol arbenigol a gofal ymgynghorol yn parhau i gael eu darparu gan y gwasanaeth iechyd gwladol. Nid oes unrhyw benderfyniad wedi cael ei wneud ar y model terfynol, ond rwyf eisiau ailadrodd hyn yn glir iawn: ni fydd y Llywodraeth hon yn cymeradwyo camau i drosglwyddo staff y GIG i'r sector preifat. Rwyf am fod yn wirioneddol glir ac agored ynglŷn â hynny, oherwydd gwn fod rhai aelodau o staff yn pryderu am eu dyfodol yn y gwasanaeth iechyd gwladol.
English: Thank you, Cabinet Secretary, for that clarification. Under the new arrangements, I think you've confirmed that there won't be any NHS staff moving to the private sector, but if there's any change at all with regard to staff moving from any NHS body to another third party, can you confirm that staff pension rights wouldn't be affected in that regard? Also, there are some concerns about a change leading to patients paying for additional services in Welshpool, and I wonder if you could comment on that. Some of the recreational and medical equipment that has been purchased for the renal unit has been supplied by the North Powys Kidney Patients Association. So, in any change, can I ask what the position would be on the ownership of these particular items? Can I also ask whether patient transportation will be affected in any way in any change?
Welsh: Diolch i chi am yr eglurhad hwnnw, Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet. O dan y trefniadau newydd, rwy'n credu eich bod wedi cadarnhau na fydd unrhyw staff y GIG yn symud i'r sector preifat, ond os oes unrhyw newid o gwbl mewn perthynas â staff yn symud o unrhyw gorff GIG i drydydd parti arall, a allwch gadarnhau na fydd hawliau pensiwn staff yn cael eu heffeithio yn hynny o beth? Hefyd, mae yna rai pryderon ynglŷn â newid a fydd yn arwain at gleifion yn talu am wasanaethau ychwanegol yn y Trallwng, a tybed a allech chi roi sylw ar hynny. Mae rhywfaint o'r offer hamdden a meddygol a brynwyd ar gyfer yr uned arennol wedi'u cyflenwi gan Gymdeithas Cleifion Arennol Gogledd Powys. Felly, yn sgil unrhyw newid, a gaf fi ofyn beth fyddai'r sefyllfa mewn perthynas â pherchnogaeth ar yr eitemau penodol hyn? A gaf fi ofyn hefyd a fydd cludiant cleifion yn cael ei effeithio mewn unrhyw ffordd yn sgil unrhyw newid?
English: I'm happy to reiterate the answers that I've given to Joyce Watson to try and deal with the points that you raise. In terms of pension rights, given that this Government won't approve a transfer out of the national health service of staff, the issue doesn't arise. If people choose to transfer and move their employment, that's a matter for them. We can't force people to stay within the national health service; people do move jobs from time to time, as we know, but there will not be a new service provision that requires people to move out of the national health service. In terms of Welshpool, NHS services will remain commissioned and provided by the national health service. Even where there are partnerships with the independent sector, that doesn't mean that people would end up paying to go and have their treatment; it is an NHS service. So, I really hope that it's helpful to quash some of the rumours and some of the way in which this conversation has run around in areas - it just is isn't possible and there's no tenable reason to think that that would actually happen. To give that assurance to staff and to patients, it won't affect patient transport, it won't affect having to pay for services - it is a national health service - and it won't affect staff being required to transfer out of the national health service. I don't think I can be any clearer than that.
Welsh: Rwy'n fodlon ailadrodd yr atebion rwyf wedi'u rhoi i Joyce Watson i geisio ymdrin â'r pwyntiau rydych yn eu codi. O ran hawliau pensiwn, o ystyried na fydd y Llywodraeth hon yn cymeradwyo camau i drosglwyddo staff o'r gwasanaeth iechyd gwladol, nid yw'r mater yn codi. Os yw pobl yn dewis trosglwyddo a symud eu cyflogaeth, mater iddynt hwy yw hwnnw. Ni allwn orfodi pobl i aros o fewn y gwasanaeth iechyd gwladol; mae pobl yn newid swyddi o bryd i'w gilydd fel y gwyddom, ond ni fydd gwasanaeth newydd yn cael ei ddarparu sy'n ei gwneud yn ofynnol i bobl symud o'r gwasanaeth iechyd gwladol. O ran y Trallwng, bydd gwasanaethau'r GIG yn parhau i gael eu comisiynu a'u darparu gan y gwasanaeth iechyd gwladol. Hyd yn oed lle y ceir partneriaethau gyda'r sector annibynnol, nid yw hynny'n golygu y byddai'n rhaid i bobl dalu am eu triniaeth yn y pen draw; gwasanaeth GIG ydyw. Felly, gobeithiaf yn wir y bydd hynny'n helpu i dawelu rhai o'r sïon a rhywfaint o'r ffordd y mae'r sgwrs hon wedi lledaenu mewn ardaloedd - nid yw'n bosibl ac nid oes unrhyw reswm dichonol dros gredu y byddai hynny'n digwydd mewn gwirionedd. I roi'r sicrwydd hwnnw i staff ac i gleifion, ni fydd yn effeithio ar gludiant cleifion, ni fydd yn effeithio ar orfod talu am wasanaethau - mae'n wasanaeth iechyd gwladol - ac ni fydd yn ei gwneud yn ofynnol i staff symud o'r gwasanaeth iechyd gwladol. Nid wyf yn credu y gallaf fod yn gliriach na hynny.
English: Cabinet Secretary, you just told us that staff and unions are part of negotiations about the future of the service, but I quoted yesterday to the First Minister a letter from staff saying, 'It's a disgraceful way for a responsible employer to conduct itself in such a process.' Because they are aggrieved that they have not had the engagement that you're potraying they are having. They say that 'The staff feel that, throughout this process, the communication has been poor and not undertaken in a timely manner, effectively preventing union representation and causing serious distress and worry to all staff concerned.' Now, I asked the First Minister yesterday whether he would look into this to give us assurances that this is not the case, or at least that, if it is, it will change. Can you also give us that assurance, please?
Welsh: Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet, rydych newydd ddweud wrthym fod staff ac undebau'n rhan o'r trafodaethau ynglŷn â dyfodol y gwasanaeth, ond ddoe dyfynnais lythyr i'r Prif Weinidog gan staff sy'n dweud, 'mae'n ffordd warthus i gyflogwr cyfrifol ymddwyn mewn proses o'r fath'. Oherwydd maent yn ddig nad ydynt wedi cael yr ymgysylltiad rydych yn dweud eu bod yn gael. Maent yn dweud 'Mae'r staff yn teimlo bod y cyfathrebu wedi bod yn wael trwy gydol y broses hon ac nad yw wedi digwydd yn brydlon, gan atal cynrychiolaeth undebau i bob pwrpas ac achosi trallod a gofid difrifol i'r holl staff dan sylw'. Nawr, gofynnais i'r Prif Weinidog ddoe a fyddai'n edrych ar hyn i roi sicrwydd i ni nad yw hynny'n wir, neu o leiaf, os yw'n wir, y bydd yn newid. A allwch chi hefyd roi'r sicrwydd hwnnw i ni, os gwelwch yn dda?
