English: Diolch, Llywydd, and I'm sure I speak for everyone today in the Chamber wishing our First Minister a speedy recovery. Can I draw the Minister's attention to the joint Wales Audit Office and Healthcare Inspectorate Wales report into governance arrangements at Cwm Taf Morgannwg University Local Health Board that was published yesterday? I'm sure that, once again, our thoughts will be with the families affected by the catastrophic failing in maternity services. This report will make hard reading for them, as it will for the front-line staff, because it is clear that a lot of what went so terribly wrong could have been avoided, and that both the staff and the families were let down by failures of management and scrutiny. The report raises concerns that this was a board that appeared from the outside to be performing well if you measured them against the Welsh Government's targets, and that the pressure to meet financial targets skewed the board's focus away from the quality of patient experience. Now, I would ask the Minister, given that he sets the targets, whether he accepts that, given that, despite eight reports, surveys and visits into Cwm Taf that should have led to action being taken, it took a ninth report for him to do anything? Given that he and his officials failed to pick up on the issues in the Betsi Cadwaladr University Local Health Board until crisis point had been reached and that he's failed to sort them out after almost five years of intervention, does he accept that the Welsh public, and particularly the public in Cwm Taf, will have little faith in his ability to ensure that the issues raised in this report are addressed and the recommendations acted upon?
Welsh: Diolch, Llywydd, ac rwy'n siŵr fy mod i'n siarad ar ran pawb heddiw yn y Siambr wrth ddymuno gwellhad buan i'n Prif Weinidog. A gaf i dynnu sylw'r Gweinidog at adroddiad ar y cyd Swyddfa Archwilio Cymru ac Arolygiaeth Gofal Iechyd Cymru ar drefniadau llywodraethu ym Mwrdd Iechyd Lleol Prifysgol Cwm Taf a gyhoeddwyd ddoe? Rwy'n siŵr, unwaith eto, y bydd ein meddyliau gyda'r teuluoedd yr effeithiwyd arnyn nhw gan y methiant trychinebus mewn gwasanaethau mamolaeth. Bydd yr adroddiad hwn yn anodd iddyn nhw ei ddarllen, ac felly hefyd y staff rheng flaen, gan ei bod yn amlwg y gellid bod wedi osgoi llawer o'r hyn a aeth mor ofnadwy o anghywir, a bod y staff a'r teuluoedd wedi cael eu siomi gan fethiannau o ran rheoli a chraffu. Mae'r adroddiad yn codi pryderon bod hwn yn fwrdd a oedd yn ymddangos o'r tu allan fel bod yn perfformio'n dda pe byddech chi'n ei fesur yn erbyn targedau Llywodraeth Cymru, a bod y pwysau i gyrraedd targedau ariannol wedi gogwyddo canolbwynt y bwrdd oddi wrth ansawdd profiad y claf. Nawr, rwyf yn gofyn i'r Gweinidog, o gofio mai ef sy'n gosod y targedau, pa un a yw'n derbyn, o gofio, er gwaethaf wyth adroddiad, arolygon ac ymweliadau â Chwm Taf a ddylai fod wedi arwain at gymryd camau, ei bod wedi cymryd nawfed adroddiad cyn iddo wneud unrhyw beth? O gofio ei fod ef a'i swyddogion wedi methu â sylwi ar y materion ym Mwrdd Iechyd Lleol Prifysgol Betsi Cadwaladr tan fod y pwynt argyfwng wedi ei gyrraedd a'i fod wedi methu â chael trefn arnyn nhw ar ôl bron i bum mlynedd o ymyrraeth, a yw'n derbyn mai ychydig iawn o ffydd fydd gan y cyhoedd yng Nghymru, a'r cyhoedd yng Nghwm Taf yn arbennig, yn ei allu i sicrhau y rhoddir sylw i'r materion a godir yn yr adroddiad hwn ac y gweithredir ar yr argymhellion?
