English: As the Member for Arfon, which includes Ysbyty Gwynedd of course, I have been very concerned about the health board for some time, and I fear that yesterday's announcement will not move us on to better days. Over the years, constituents have highlighted their concerns, some of which relate to the loss of services from Ysbyty Gwynedd. We had to fight a threat to maternity services. The case was made for retaining and building on the vascular service, but it was moved eastwards, destroying a unit of excellent quality, and we are well aware of the damning and shocking consequences of that decision for all patients in north Wales. Serious concerns were also raised about the Hergest mental health unit, but there was an attempt to bury the Holden report. These concerns have come to my attention mainly through the staff of Betsi Cadwaladr health board, the wonderful workforce that we have, and the people who are battling against these significant challenges on a daily basis. I'm very grateful to them for their work, but I'm also grateful to those who have brought their concerns forward. It is through them that I have been able to understand the true nature of the problems. Staff have come to me recently again for other reasons. I've received complaints about a culture of bullying at Ysbyty Gwynedd - very serious complaints - and I'm very pleased that Rhun ap Iorwerth has pursued this also and has secured a review of that situation. Each time a member of staff comes to me, he or she emphasises that I should not mention their names when discussing issues with the health board. For years, there has been a culture of brushing issues under the carpet; of a lack of transparency; of intimidating staff who wish to speak out, and, unfortunately, this seems to be getting worse rather than getting better, despite all of the interventions that have been made over the years by the Welsh Government. And yesterday's announcement is not going to improve that culture, and that culture is at the root of many of the problems. The organisation needs wholesale change in order to drive the massive change that's needed. We need urgent action across the organisation to create an open culture that welcomes the input of staff, not one that seeks to silence them, and certainly, we need to give serious thought to whether the current model is fit for purpose. And that's the purpose of our amendment, and I'm very pleased to have cross-party support in this Chamber for that. So, I do urge you to think seriously about the suggestion that we are putting before you together today. I urge you to leave no stone unturned - no stone unturned - in search of improvement. Listen to what the front-line staff are saying. And, please, will you recognise, unconditionally, that the situation is a very, very serious one?
Welsh: Fel yr Aelod dros Arfon, sy'n cynnwys Ysbyty Gwynedd wrth gwrs, dwi wedi bod yn bur bryderus am y bwrdd iechyd ers tro, ac mae arnaf ofn na fydd y cyhoeddiad ddoe yn ein symud ymlaen at ddyddiau gwell. Dros y blynyddoedd, mae etholwyr wedi tynnu sylw at eu pryderon, rhai ohonyn nhw yn ymwneud efo colli gwasanaethau o Ysbyty Gwynedd. Bu'n rhaid inni ymladd bygythiad i'r gwasanaethau mamolaeth. Fe wnaed yr achos dros gadw ac adeiladu ar y gwasanaeth fasgiwlar, ond fe'i symudwyd i'r dwyrain, gan chwalu uned o ansawdd rhagorol, ac rydyn ni'n gyfarwydd iawn efo canlyniadau damniol ac ysgytwol y penderfyniad hwnnw ar gyfer holl gleifion y gogledd. Codwyd pryderon difrifol iawn am uned iechyd meddwl Hergest, ond ceisiwyd claddu adroddiad Holden. Mae'r pryderon yma i gyd wedi dod i'm sylw i yn bennaf drwy staff bwrdd iechyd Betsi Cadwaladr, y gweithlu ardderchog sydd gennym ni, a'r bobl sy'n brwydro yn erbyn yr heriau sylweddol yn ddyddiol. Dwi'n ddiolchgar iawn iddyn nhw am eu gwaith, ond dwi'n ddiolchgar hefyd i'r rhai hynny ohonyn nhw sydd wedi dod â'u pryderon nhw ymlaen. Drwyddyn nhw rydym ni'n gallu dod i ddeall gwir natur y problemau. Mae'r staff wedi dod ataf fi eto yn ddiweddar am resymau eraill. Dwi wedi derbyn cwynion am ddiwylliant o fwlio yn Ysbyty Gwynedd - cwynion difrifol iawn - a dwi yn falch bod Rhun ap Iorwerth wedi bod yn mynd ar ôl hyn hefyd ac wedi sicrhau adolygiad o'r sefyllfa. Bob tro mae aelod o staff yn dod ataf fi, mae hi neu fo yn pwysleisio nad ydw i fod i grybwyll eu henwau nhw wrth drafod â'r bwrdd iechyd. Ers blynyddoedd, mae yna ddiwylliant o guddio materion dan y carped; o ddiffyg tryloywder; o greu ofn ymhlith staff sydd am siarad allan, ac, yn anffodus, mae hyn yn mynd yn waeth yn hytrach na gwella, er gwaetha'r holl ymyriadau sydd wedi bod dros y blynyddoedd o du Llywodraeth Cymru. Dydy'r cyhoeddiad ddoe ddim am wella'r diwylliant yna, ac mae'r diwylliant yna wrth wraidd llawer o'r problemau. Mae'r sefydliad angen newid drwyddo draw er mwyn gyrru'r newid anferth sydd ei angen. Mae angen gweithredu brys ar draws y sefydliad i greu diwylliant agored, sydd yn croesawu mewnbwn staff, nid un sy'n ceisio eu tawelu nhw, ac yn sicr, mae angen meddwl o ddifrif a ydy'r model presennol yn ffit i bwrpas. A dyna bwrpas ein gwelliant ni, a dwi'n falch o gael cefnogaeth trawsbleidiol yn y Siambr yma iddo fo. Felly, dwi yn erfyn arnoch chi i feddwl o ddifrif am yr awgrym yma rydyn ni'n rhoi gerbron efo'n gilydd heddiw yma. Dwi'n erfyn arnoch chi i droi pob carreg - pob carreg - i greu gwelliant. Gwrandewch ar beth mae'r staff rheng flaen yn ei ddweud. A, plis, a wnewch chi gydnabod, yn ddiamod, fod y sefyllfa yn un ddifrifol iawn, iawn?
