English: Thank you to Jane Dodds for tabling this very important question. Like you, I was very moved and disturbed by the documentary. I think Niall's comments really stuck with me saying, 'Prison would have been better for me.' Prison better than somewhere that they were supposed to be safe. I would also like to echo the calls for an independent review of children's social work. I think this is essential. We are an outlier, and these are experts telling us - it's not politicians pushing for this; these are experts working in the field. And may I take from your response to Gareth Davies, therefore, that you are not ruling out the need now, that you are awaiting both and are therefore still open to an independent review should you not be content with both reports that you've referenced? I think that that would be a welcome step today. And if I may as well, we know that looked-after children are especially vulnerable and outcomes are too often much poorer than we would wish, and research for End Youth Homelessness Cymru's report, 'Don't Let Me Fall Through the Cracks', shows us the links between care experience and youth homelessness - so, really, echoing those calls that we saw from those young people yesterday. Evidence shows that we need to be able to target specialist services at the young people most at risk of experiencing youth homelessness, and this is part of the prevention agenda that you've also referenced - how important it is that we support people so that they don't end up in the care system. But we can't deny that there are young people who are facing risks today - as you said, those 5 per cent; that is a significant amount of young people who are falling through the cracks. Therefore, to what extent is Welsh Government monitoring the outcomes for young people in care, as, clearly, there are far too many in the system without that safety net at present?
Welsh: Diolch i Jane Dodds am gyflwyno'r cwestiwn pwysig hwn. Fel chithau, cefais fy mrawychu gan y rhaglen ddogfen. Rwy'n credu bod sylwadau Niall wedi aros gyda mi pan ddywedodd, 'Byddai carchar wedi bod yn well i mi.' Carchar yn well na rhywle lle roeddent i fod yn ddiogel. Hefyd, hoffwn ategu'r galwadau am adolygiad annibynnol o waith cymdeithasol plant. Rwy'n credu bod hyn yn hanfodol. Rydym yn eithriad, ac mae'r rhain yn arbenigwyr sy'n dweud wrthym - nid gwleidyddion sy'n pwyso am hyn; arbenigwyr sy'n gweithio yn y maes yw'r rhain. Ac a gaf fi gymryd o'ch ymateb i Gareth Davies, felly, nad ydych yn diystyru'r angen yn awr, eich bod yn aros am y ddau adroddiad ac felly'n dal i fod yn agored i adolygiad annibynnol os na fyddwch yn fodlon â'r ddau adroddiad y cyfeirioch chi atynt? Credaf y byddai hynny'n gam i'w groesawu heddiw. Ac os caf hefyd, gwyddom fod plant sy'n derbyn gofal yn arbennig o agored i niwed a bod canlyniadau'n rhy aml yn llawer gwaeth nag y byddem yn ei ddymuno, ac mae ymchwil ar gyfer adroddiad End Youth Homelessness Cymru, 'Don't Let Me Fall Through the Cracks', yn dangos y cysylltiadau rhwng profiad gofal a digartrefedd ymhlith pobl ifanc - gan adleisio'r galwadau a welsom gan y bobl ifanc ddoe. Dengys tystiolaeth fod angen inni allu targedu gwasanaethau arbenigol at y bobl ifanc sydd fwyaf mewn perygl o brofi digartrefedd ymhlith pobl ifanc, ac mae hyn yn rhan o'r agenda atal y cyfeirioch chi ati hefyd - pa mor bwysig yw hi ein bod yn cefnogi pobl fel nad ydynt yn mynd i mewn i'r system ofal. Ond ni allwn wadu bod pobl ifanc yn wynebu risgiau heddiw - fel y dywedoch chi, y 5 y cant hynny; mae'n nifer sylweddol o bobl ifanc yn syrthio drwy'r craciau. Felly, i ba raddau y mae Llywodraeth Cymru yn monitro'r canlyniadau i bobl ifanc mewn gofal, oherwydd, yn amlwg, mae llawer gormod yn y system heb y rhwyd ddiogelwch honno ar hyn o bryd?
