English: Thank you, Llywydd. Of course, I agree with Lynne Neagle about the importance of those first 1,000 days, when children's brains are growing faster than they will at any other time in their lives, and when those very important attachments are being laid down that will form the basis of emotional well-being over the rest of their lifetime. As Lynne Neagle will know, in the early days of coronavirus there were disruptions to the sorts of services families and children could rely upon, both because staff themselves were falling ill as a result of coronavirus and because health visitors, for example, had to be redirected to helping even more urgent parts of the health service. The good news is that all health visitors have now been repatriated, and those services that matter so much in the lives of those young children are being restored. They're not 100 per cent back to where they were before, because coronavirus hasn't gone away. But nevertheless, the efforts that are needed, in the way that Lynne Neagle has set out, I know are well understood and are being acted upon in our social services and in our health services. And, Llywydd, there are still some remarkable success stories, considering the pressures that everybody has been under. Immunisation rates in Wales, during the first three months of this financial year - so, the three months when the coronavirus crisis was at its greatest - the three-dose, six-in-one vaccine for infants went above 95 per cent during that quarter and the MMR first dose for two-year-olds increased to above 95 per cent. So, despite all the difficulties that people were facing, and we know that people were reluctant sometimes to come forward for treatments in that very difficult period, there is evidence of the continuing success of services for young people in those first 1,000 days.
Welsh: Diolch, Lywydd. Wrth gwrs, rwy'n cytuno â Lynne Neagle ynglŷn â phwysigrwydd y 1,000 diwrnod cyntaf hynny, pan fydd ymennydd plant yn tyfu'n gyflymach nag y bydd ar unrhyw adeg arall yn eu bywydau, a phan fydd yr atodiadau pwysig iawn hynny yn cael eu gosod a fydd yn sail i lesiant emosiynol dros weddill eu hoes. Fel y bydd Lynne Neagle yn gwybod, yn nyddiau cynnar coronafeirws, bu tarfu ar y mathau o wasanaethau y gallai teuluoedd a phlant ddibynnu arnyn nhw, oherwydd bod y staff eu hunain yn datblygu salwch o ganlyniad i coronafeirws ac oherwydd y bu'n rhaid ailgyfeirio ymwelwyr iechyd, er enghraifft, i helpu rhannau mwy brys fyth o'r gwasanaeth iechyd. Y newyddion da yw bod pob ymwelydd iechyd wedi eu dychwelyd i'w swyddi erbyn hyn, ac mae'r gwasanaethau hynny sydd mor bwysig ym mywydau'r plant ifanc hynny yn cael eu hadfer. Nid ydyn nhw 100 y cant yn ôl i ble'r oedden nhw o'r blaen, gan nad yw coronafeirws wedi diflannu. Ond serch hynny, gwn fod dealltwriaeth dda o'r ymdrechion sydd eu hangen, yn y ffordd y mae Lynne Neagle wedi'i nodi, a bod camau yn cael eu cymryd yn eu cyswllt yn ein gwasanaethau cymdeithasol ac yn ein gwasanaethau iechyd. A, Llywydd, ceir rhai llwyddiannau rhyfeddol o hyd, o ystyried y pwysau sydd wedi bod ar bawb. Aeth cyfraddau imiwneiddio yng Nghymru, yn ystod tri mis cyntaf y flwyddyn ariannol hon - felly'r tri mis pan oedd argyfwng coronafeirws yn ei anterth - aeth y brechlyn tri dos, chwech mewn un i fabanod yn uwch na 95 y cant yn ystod y chwarter hwnnw a chynyddodd y dos cyntaf MMR i blant ddwyflwydd oed i fwy na 95 y cant. Felly, er gwaethaf yr holl anawsterau yr oedd pobl yn eu hwynebu, ac rydym ni'n gwybod bod pobl weithiau'n amharod i ddod ymlaen i gael triniaethau yn y cyfnod anodd iawn hwnnw, ceir tystiolaeth o lwyddiant parhaus gwasanaethau i bobl ifanc yn y 1,000 diwrnod cyntaf hynny.
