English: In your update on Welsh Government support for Ukraine last Thursday, you referred to the latest UK Government figures, which stated that, as of 10 May, 3,300 visas have been issued to people from Ukraine to come to Wales via the Homes for Ukraine scheme, which is up 1,000 in just a fortnight, of which 1,300 were sponsored by the Welsh Government, up 630 in just a fortnight. Overall, a total of 132,900 Ukraine scheme visa applications have now been received, with 120,300 visas issued, up from 73.2 per cent to 77 per cent in a fortnight, and 46,100 total arrivals for visa holders in the UK, up from 23 per cent to 34.6 per cent in a fortnight. You state that 1,126 people with sponsors have now arrived in Wales, in addition to those arriving under the Ukraine family scheme. What therefore is your understanding of how many have arrived in Wales in total so far under both schemes? And notwithstanding the gradually improving figures, what further specific discussions have you had with the UK Minister for Refugees about the reasons for the gap between numbers of visas issued and total arrivals, and what is being done to address this? Last Thursday, Members received a British Red Cross briefing on Ukraine, with recommended actions. How do you respond to their statements that, as refugees settle into Wales, monitoring the welfare and safety of refugees longer term will be crucial? Therefore, in the Welsh Government's role as a supersponsor under the Homes for Ukraine scheme, they said, it's important that assurances are made around safeguarding support to ensure that there is a role for local authorities in monitoring ongoing support around the welfare of Ukrainians as they settle in Wales. And they said that, 'While support to date is welcome, we want to minimise the risk of embedding a two-tiered system for refugees in Wales and the UK, which would mean treating people differently based on the way they arrived.' The proposed changes, they said, could leave people without access to vital support. Responding to you two weeks ago, I also referred to figures showing a huge variation in the number of visas issued across local authorities in Wales. What is your understanding of the comparative position now, a fortnight later, and, notwithstanding the obvious differences in population size, what is your understanding of the reasons for this range and how are you targeting support at a local level, if a disparity still exists? Responding to you two weeks ago, I asked how you were working with ministerial colleagues to ensure that school places and local GP and NHS services are available to Ukrainian refugees when they arrive in Wales. You responded stating: 'It's crucial in terms of education that children can obtain admission to schools, and, indeed, also, I have to say, to the health service, to their GPs, to the health checks that are under way. This is monitored on a daily basis.' However, I subsequently contacted you on behalf of a constituent who had a Ukrainian refugee family arriving the following morning under the Homes for Ukraine scheme, who had been told by the local authority's school admissions that the family's primary school age child could not start education until she'd had a medical from the GP, as directed by the Welsh Government. They had been told by the GP they'd registered the family with that they refused to do a medical, knew nothing of this requirement and did not have the capacity. May I thank you for your very prompt response to this, in which you stated that officials were following up with the admissions officer in the local authority to confirm that, providing the child is well, they do not need to wait for a health assessment to be able to attend school; that the requirement to delay attendance relates specifically to TB screening; that primary school age children can attend if they're well, but secondary school age children do need an assessment and chest x-ray with the health board TB teams in advance of attending school; and that regarding the position relayed to the family from the GP practice, you have asked health officials to follow up on that with the health board as a matter of urgency? Well, the constituent subsequently told me that school admissions had contacted them to say that primary school age children can now attend school, and thanked you and me for this. However, they added, 'I'm not sure of the process of her attending if her year group is full, which we've been told it is.' How, therefore, are you working with colleagues to ensure that this capacity issue is addressed? And finally, how will you now ensure that local authority and health services across Wales understand your expectations of them?
Welsh: Yn eich diweddariad ar gefnogaeth Llywodraeth Cymru i Wcráin ddydd Iau diwethaf, fe wnaethoch chi gyfeirio at ffigurau diweddaraf Llywodraeth y DU, a oedd yn nodi, ar 10 Mai, fod 3,300 o fisâu wedi'u rhoi i bobl o Wcráin i ddod i Gymru drwy'r cynllun Cartrefi i Wcráin, sydd i fyny o 1,000 mewn pythefnos yn unig. Noddwyd 1,300 ohonynt gan Lywodraeth Cymru, i fyny 630 mewn pythefnos yn unig. Gyda'i gilydd, mae cyfanswm o 132,900 o geisiadau am fisâu cynllun Wcráin bellach wedi'u derbyn, gyda 120,300 o fisâu wedi'u cyhoeddi, i fyny o 73.2 y cant i 77 y cant mewn pythefnos, a chyfanswm o 46,100 o ddeiliaid fisâu yn cyrraedd y DU, i fyny o 23 y cant i 34.6 y cant mewn pythefnos. Rydych chi'n dweud bod 1,126 o bobl â noddwyr bellach wedi cyrraedd Cymru, yn ogystal â'r rhai sy'n cyrraedd o dan gynllun teulu Wcráin. Beth felly yw eich dealltwriaeth o faint sydd wedi cyrraedd Cymru i gyd hyd yn hyn o dan y ddau gynllun? Ac er gwaethaf y ffigurau sy'n gwella'n raddol, pa drafodaethau penodol pellach ydych chi wedi'u cael gyda Gweinidog Ffoaduriaid y DU am y rhesymau dros y bwlch rhwng nifer y fisâu a gyhoeddwyd a chyfanswm y bobl sy'n cyrraedd, a beth sy'n cael ei wneud i fynd i'r afael â hyn? Ddydd Iau diwethaf, cafodd yr Aelodau sesiwn friffio gan y Groes Goch Brydeinig ar Wcráin, gyda chamau gweithredu a argymhellir. Sut ydych chi'n ymateb i'w datganiadau, wrth i ffoaduriaid ymgartrefu yng Nghymru, y bydd monitro lles a diogelwch ffoaduriaid yn y tymor hwy yn hollbwysig? Felly, yn rôl Llywodraeth Cymru fel uwch-noddwr o dan y cynllun Cartrefi i Wcráin, fe wnaethon nhw ddweud, mae'n bwysig bod sicrwydd yn cael ei wneud ynghylch cymorth diogelu er mwyn sicrhau bod rôl i awdurdodau lleol o ran monitro cymorth parhaus ynghylch lles pobl o Wcráin wrth iddyn nhw ymgartrefu yng Nghymru. Ac fe wnaethon nhw ddweud, 'Er bod cefnogaeth hyd yma i'w chroesawu, rydym ni am leihau'r risg o sefydlu system ddwy haen ar gyfer ffoaduriaid yng Nghymru a'r DU, a fyddai'n golygu trin pobl yn wahanol ar sail y ffordd y gwnaethon nhw gyrraedd.' Gallai'r newidiadau arfaethedig, medden nhw, adael pobl heb fynediad at gymorth hanfodol. Wrth ymateb i chi bythefnos yn ôl, fe wnes i gyfeirio hefyd at ffigurau sy'n dangos amrywiad enfawr yn nifer y fisâu a gyhoeddwyd ar draws awdurdodau lleol yng Nghymru. Beth yw eich dealltwriaeth o'r sefyllfa gymharol nawr, bythefnos yn ddiweddarach, ac, er gwaethaf y gwahaniaethau amlwg ym maint y boblogaeth, beth yw eich dealltwriaeth o'r rhesymau dros yr ystod hon a sut ydych chi'n targedu cymorth ar lefel leol, os oes gwahaniaeth o hyd? Wrth ymateb i chi bythefnos yn ôl, fe wnes i ofyn sut roeddech chi'n gweithio gyda'ch cyd-Weinidogion i sicrhau bod lleoedd mewn ysgolion a gwasanaethau meddygon teulu a'r GIG lleol ar gael i ffoaduriaid o Wcráin pan fyddan nhw'n cyrraedd Cymru. Fe wnaethoch chi ymateb gan ddweud: 'Mae hi'n hanfodol o ran addysg y gall plant gael eu derbyn i ysgolion, ac, yn wir, hefyd, mae'n rhaid i mi ddweud, wrth y gwasanaeth iechyd, i'w meddygon teulu nhw, am y gwiriadau sydd ar y gweill o ran iechyd. Fe gaiff hynny ei fonitro bob dydd.' Fodd bynnag, fe wnes i gysylltu â chi wedyn ar ran etholwr a oedd â theulu ffoaduriaid o Wcráin yn cyrraedd y bore canlynol o dan y cynllun Cartrefi i Wcráin, a oedd wedi cael gwybod gan dderbyniadau ysgol yr awdurdod lleol na allai plentyn oedran ysgol gynradd y teulu ddechrau addysg nes iddi gael gwiriad meddygol gan feddyg teulu, yn unol â chyfarwyddyd Llywodraeth Cymru. Dywedodd y meddyg teulu yr oedd y teulu wedi'i gofrestru gyda nhw eu bod nhw'n gwrthod gwneud y gwiriad meddygol, nad oedden nhw'n gwybod unrhyw beth am y gofyniad hwn ac nad oedd ganddyn nhw'r gallu. Hoffwn ddiolch i chi am eich ymateb prydlon iawn i hyn, gan ddweud fod swyddogion yn cysylltu â'r swyddog derbyn yn yr awdurdod lleol i gadarnhau, ar yr amod bod y plentyn yn iach, nad oes angen iddyn nhw aros am asesiad iechyd i allu mynychu'r ysgol; bod y gofyniad i ohirio presenoldeb yn ymwneud yn benodol â sgrinio TB; y gall plant oedran ysgol gynradd fynychu os ydyn nhw'n iach, ond mae angen asesiad a phelydr-x ar blant oedran ysgol uwchradd gyda thimau TB y bwrdd iechyd cyn iddyn nhw fynychu'r ysgol; a'ch bod wedi gofyn i swyddogion iechyd fynd ar drywydd hynny gyda'r bwrdd iechyd fel mater o frys o ran y sefyllfa a roddwyd i'r teulu o'r practis meddygon teulu? Wel, dywedodd yr etholwr wrthyf i wedyn fod derbyniadau i ysgolion wedi cysylltu â nhw i ddweud y gall plant oedran ysgol gynradd fynychu'r ysgol yn awr, a diolchodd i chi a minnau am hyn. Fodd bynnag, fe wnaethon nhw ychwanegu, 'Dydw i ddim yn siŵr o'r broses o ran mynychu os yw ei grŵp blwyddyn hi'n llawn, a dywedwyd wrthym ni ei fod yn llawn.' Sut, felly, ydych chi'n gweithio gyda chydweithwyr i sicrhau bod y mater hwn o gapasiti yn cael sylw? Ac yn olaf, sut y byddwch chi nawr yn sicrhau bod awdurdodau lleol a gwasanaethau iechyd ledled Cymru yn deall eich disgwyliadau ohonyn nhw?
