English: Can I thank the Cabinet Secretary for your statement today and can I welcome the recognition, at long last, of the adverse impact of the use of synthetic tape and surgical vaginal mesh sheets for treating pelvic organ prolapse and stress urinary incontinence, leading to appalling, long-term and life-changing consequences for women's health? I welcome the recommendations in your report that relate to preventative measures and conservative management of these conditions and with surgery as a last resort. I welcome also, for example, the recommendation for a new pelvic health and well-being pathway. And can I thank the Cabinet Secretary for meeting with my constituents, Jemima Williams and Nicola Hobbs, whose lives have been so adversely affected by vaginal mesh implants? I'd like to praise them for their courage and their leadership in the Welsh Mesh Survivors group. But can I clarify, Cabinet Secretary, the position regarding my constituents, Jemima and Nicola, and the task and finish group? Because in your written statement you said that they chose not to take part in the group, but can I draw attention to the context of their decision not to take engage? They were deeply concerned about the membership of the group, the papers presented to the group and the lack of notice and draft terms of reference, because both also are suffering from constant pain and severe ill-health. But it was very helpful that you agreed to meet them, with me. Can you confirm that you took full account of their full and harrowing evidence at that meeting? They did provide an extensive folder of patient experience of adverse impact. And also, can you confirm and clarify, Cabinet Secretary, what cross-border engagement is taking place to share clinical expertise, evidence from patients, mesh sufferers and funding also that could be available for referral to mesh removal experts? Finally, as you are aware, the Welsh Mesh Survivors group are calling for mesh use to be suspended until a full audit has been carried out. And it's hard to believe that the procedure can still take place in Wales, despite the point that you made today in your statement, that all reviews to date have shown how difficult it has been to have a reliable assessment of the scale of the problem that can be linked to the use of vaginal mesh. That is as we are today. So, Cabinet Secretary, will you consider holding a retrospective audit of the use of mesh in Wales and consider suspending the use of vaginal mesh until this takes place? Thank you.
Welsh: A gaf i ddiolch i Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet am eich datganiad heddiw ac a gaf i groesawu'r gydnabyddiaeth, o'r diwedd, o effaith andwyol defnyddio tâp synthetig a llieiniau rhwyll y wain llawfeddygol i drin prolaps organau'r pelfis ac anymataliath wrinol sy'n gysylltiedig â straen, gan arwain at ganlyniadau ofnadwy a hirdymor i iechyd menywod, sy'n newid bywydau? Rwy'n croesawu'r argymhellion yn eich adroddiad sy'n ymwneud â mesurau ataliol a rheoli ceidwadol o'r cyflyrau hyn, ac â llawdriniaeth fel dewis olaf. Croesawaf hefyd, er enghraifft, yr argymhelliad ar gyfer llwybr iechyd a lles pelfis newydd. Ac a gaf i ddiolch i Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet am gyfarfod â'm hetholwyr, Jemima Williams a Nicola Hobbs, yr effeithiwyd ar eu bywydau mewn modd andwyol gan fewnblaniadau rhwyll y wain? Hoffwn i eu canmol am eu dewrder a'u harweinyddiaeth yn Grŵp Goroeswyr Rhwyll Cymru. Ond a gaf i egluro, Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet, y sefyllfa o ran fy etholwyr, Jemima a Nicola, a'r grŵp gorchwyl a gorffen? Oherwydd yn eich datganiad ysgrifenedig, dywedasoch eu bod wedi dewis peidio â chymryd rhan yn y grŵp, ond a gaf i dynnu sylw at gyd-destun eu penderfyniad i beidio â chymryd rhan? Roedden nhw'n pryderu'n fawr am aelodaeth y grŵp, y papurau a gyflwynwyd i'r grŵp a'r diffyg rhybudd a chylch gorchwyl drafft, oherwydd mae'r ddwy hefyd yn dioddef o boen cyson a salwch difrifol. Ond roedd yn ddefnyddiol iawn eich bod wedi cytuno i gyfarfod â nhw, gyda fi. A allwch chi gadarnhau ichi roi ystyriaeth lawn i'w tystiolaeth lawn a dirdynnol nhw yn y cyfarfod hwnnw? Roeddent wedi darparu ffolder helaeth o brofiad cleifion o effeithiau andwyol. A hefyd, a allwch chi gadarnhau ac egluro, Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet, pa ymgysylltu trawsffiniol sy'n digwydd i rannu arbenigedd clinigol, tystiolaeth gan gleifion, dioddefwyr rhwyll a'r arian hefyd a allai fod ar gael ar gyfer atgyfeirio i arbenigwyr tynnu rhwyll? Yn olaf, fel y byddwch yn gwybod, mae Grŵp Goroeswyr Rhwyll Cymru yn galw am atal dros dro y defnydd o rwyll hyd nes y cynhelir archwiliad llawn. Anodd yw credu y gall y driniaeth hon ddigwydd yng Nghymru o hyd, er gwaethaf y pwynt a wnaed gennych heddiw yn eich datganiad, fod yr holl adolygiadau hyd yn hyn wedi dangos pa mor anodd oedd cael asesiad dibynadwy o faint y broblem sy'n gysylltiedig â'r defnydd o rwyll y wain. Dyna'r sefyllfa fel ag y mae heddiw. Felly, Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet, a wnewch chi ystyried cynnal archwiliad ôl-weithredol o'r defnydd o rwyll yng Nghymru ac ystyried atal dros dro y defnydd o rwyll y wain hyd nes y bydd hyn yn digwydd? Diolch.
