English: I think there are two things that we need to do here. The first is to address the immediate pressures that we see within the social care sector here in Wales, which are quite acute now, and you will have heard my colleague, the Minister for health, talking about the impact that has on people being discharged from hospital and so on. So, there's an immediate issue in terms of the social care sector. Part of that is about pay, part of it's about recognition and the kudos of the role. Despite the fact that I think that everybody has woken up to the value of these roles over the past couple of years, we need to make sure that these are roles that people want to go into, which are valued and are valued in the way in which we intend to value through the real living wage, for example. And you'll know that the Deputy Minister for Social Partnership has met with the forum, and asked for the views and recommendations on implementing the real living wage so that we don't do so in a way which destabilises even further the very fragile sector. So, that's the immediate challenge, really, in terms of the workforce. But that longer term challenge is the one which we were seeking to address through the inter-ministerial group pre COVID, and that was in response to the work which Professor Holtham did in his report, which set out ways in which we could raise funding for social care in the future. And we had a number of additional pieces of work alongside that, which we commissioned, which we published through the course of the last Senedd, which, again, set out potential ways in which we could address the future of care. I can assure you that the group has looked beyond how we pay for care and the mechanisms of raising the finance and distributing the finance. It was very much about how we use this opportunity to improve care, improve the experience of the workforce. Because we know that when the workforce feels valued it stays, and when people are seeing the same people every day that gives an improvement to the kind of care and relationships and the outcomes for those individuals. So, I just want to reassure you that all of those points, which you've described, are very much part of the work. It's not just about raising the finance.
Welsh: Credaf fod dau beth y mae angen inni eu gwneud yma. Y cyntaf yw mynd i'r afael â'r pwysau uniongyrchol a welwn yn y sector gofal cymdeithasol yma yng Nghymru, sy'n eithaf sylweddol bellach, a byddwch wedi clywed fy nghyd-Aelod, y Gweinidog iechyd, yn sôn am yr effaith a gaiff hynny ar bobl sy'n cael eu rhyddhau o'r ysbyty ac ati. Felly, ceir problem uniongyrchol mewn perthynas â'r sector gofal cymdeithasol. Mae rhan o hynny'n ymwneud â chyflogau, mae rhan ohono'n ymwneud â chydnabyddiaeth a bri'r rôl. Er fy mod yn credu bod pawb wedi sylweddoli pa mor werthfawr yw'r rolau hyn dros yr ychydig flynyddoedd diwethaf, mae angen inni sicrhau bod y rhain yn rolau y mae pobl yn awyddus i ymgymryd â hwy, ac yn cael eu gwerthfawrogi yn y ffordd rydym yn bwriadu iddynt gael eu gwerthfawrogi drwy'r cyflog byw gwirioneddol, er enghraifft. A gwyddoch fod y Dirprwy Weinidog Partneriaeth Gymdeithasol wedi cyfarfod â'r fforwm, ac wedi gofyn am safbwyntiau ac argymhellion ar roi'r cyflog byw gwirioneddol ar waith fel nad ydym yn gwneud hynny mewn ffordd sy'n ansefydlogi'r sector bregus hwn ymhellach. Felly, dyna'r her nesaf, mewn gwirionedd, o ran y gweithlu. Ond yr her honno ar gyfer y tymor hwy yw'r un roeddem yn ceisio mynd i'r afael â hi drwy'r grŵp rhyngweinidogol cyn COVID, a hynny mewn ymateb i'r gwaith a wnaeth yr Athro Holtham yn ei adroddiad, a nodai ffyrdd y gallem godi arian ar gyfer gofal cymdeithasol yn y dyfodol. A chawsom nifer o ddarnau ychwanegol o waith ochr yn ochr â hynny, gwaith a gomisiynwyd ac a gyhoeddwyd gennym drwy gydol y Senedd ddiwethaf, ac a oedd, unwaith eto, yn nodi ffyrdd posibl y gallem fynd i'r afael â dyfodol gofal. Gallaf roi sicrwydd i chi fod y grŵp wedi edrych y tu hwnt i sut rydym yn talu am ofal a mecanweithiau codi'r cyllid a dosbarthu'r cyllid. Roedd yn sicr yn ymwneud â sut rydym yn achub ar y cyfle hwn i wella gofal, gwella profiad y gweithlu. Oherwydd pan fydd y gweithlu'n teimlo ei fod yn cael ei werthfawrogi, gwyddom ei fod yn aros, a phan fydd pobl yn gweld yr un bobl bob dydd, mae hynny'n gwella'r math o ofal a'r berthynas rhwng pobl a'r canlyniadau i'r unigolion hynny. Felly, hoffwn eich sicrhau bod yr holl bwyntiau a ddisgrifiwyd gennych yn rhan fawr o'r gwaith. Mae'n ymwneud â mwy na chodi'r cyllid yn unig.
