English: Type 1 diabetes is the most common chronic condition in children and young people. As we know, if left undiagnosed, it can be fatal. I commend the Petitions Committee for their work on this petition, and I welcome Welsh Government's response in accepting the majority of the committee's recommendations. One of the concerns raised by the Baldwin family and Diabetes UK Cymru was that there wasn't sufficient equipment in GP surgeries to allow them to check for type 1. I'm pleased the Welsh Government is committed to taking action on this point, by seeking assurances regarding the availability of equipment in primary care. The recommendations touch on the importance of raising awareness of the symptoms of type 1 diabetes. I'm again pleased to see Welsh Government has taken steps to highlight the symptoms with health boards, but hope that this becomes a regular occurrence in future Welsh Government communications, and I'd be interested to hear more from the Cabinet Secretary today about how he intends to monitor that awareness. In the meetings I have had with the family of Peter Baldwin, I have seen and heard how type 1 can devastate a family. I want to pay tribute to the Baldwin family for their tireless and courageous campaign to ensure that no other family suffers in the way that they have. Indeed, we know that the Know Type 1 campaign has already resulted in families being diagnosed safely with type 1. So, it has already saved lives. We all in this Chamber have our part to play, not just those of us who are GPs. I hope that everyone in this Chamber is now aware of the 4 Ts of diabetes - toilet, thirsty, thinner and tired. And I encourage you all to spread this message as far and wide as you can.
Welsh: Diabetes math 1 yw'r cyflwr cronig mwyaf cyffredin mewn plant a phobl ifanc. Fel y gwyddom, os na wneir diagnosis ohono, gall fod yn angheuol. Rwy'n canmol y Pwyllgor Deisebau am eu gwaith ar y ddeiseb hon, ac rwy'n croesawu ymateb Llywodraeth Cymru yn derbyn y rhan fwyaf o argymhellion y pwyllgor. Un o'r pryderon a godwyd gan y teulu Baldwin a Diabetes UK Cymru oedd nad oedd digon o gyfarpar ym meddygfeydd meddygon teulu i ganiatáu iddynt chwilio am fath 1. Rwy'n falch fod Llywodraeth Cymru wedi ymrwymo i weithredu ar y pwynt hwn, drwy geisio sicrwydd ynghylch argaeledd cyfarpar mewn gofal sylfaenol. Mae'r argymhellion yn cyffwrdd ar bwysigrwydd codi ymwybyddiaeth o symptomau diabetes math 1. Rwy'n falch o weld bod Llywodraeth Cymru wedi cymryd camau i dynnu sylw at y symptomau gyda byrddau iechyd, ond rwy'n gobeithio bod hyn yn codi'n rheolaidd mewn cyfathrebiadau yn y dyfodol gan Lywodraeth Cymru, a hoffwn glywed rhagor gan Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet heddiw ynglŷn â sut y bwriada fonitro'r ymwybyddiaeth honno. Yn y cyfarfodydd a gefais gyda theulu Peter Baldwin, fe welais ac fe glywais sut y gall math 1 ddinistrio teulu. Hoffwn dalu teyrnged i'r teulu Baldwin am eu hymgyrch ddewr a diflino i sicrhau nad oes unrhyw deulu arall yn dioddef yn y modd y maent hwy wedi gwneud. Yn wir, fe wyddom fod yr ymgyrch Adnabod Math 1 eisoes wedi arwain at deuluoedd yn cael diagnosis yn ddiogel o fath 1. Felly, mae eisoes wedi achub bywydau. Mae gan bawb yn y Siambr hon ein rhan i'w chwarae, nid y rheini ohonom sy'n feddygon teulu yn unig. Gobeithio bod pawb yn y Siambr hon bellach yn ymwybodol o 4T diabetes - tŷ bach, teimlo'n sychedig, teimlo'n flinedig, teneuach. Ac rwy'n annog pob un ohonoch i ledaenu'r neges hon mor eang ag y gallwch.
