English: - I wrote to the First Minister on 27 April, asking him to correct the Record, the Senedd Record, after he said that responsibility for the COVID public inquiry 'has moved into the hands of the independent judge who has been appointed to lead it.' He was answering a question asked by Heledd Fychan. Now, as somebody who has called consistently for a Wales-only inquiry to ensure that issues are looked at properly from a Welsh perspective - and these are vitally important issues, of course, surrounding the circumstances of thousands of deaths here in Wales - I'm not happy that we're just a part of a UK inquiry that I don't believe can look forensically enough at the situation here in Wales, and, as I've said repeatedly, I'm frustrated that the Labour Welsh Government has been happy to trust Boris Johnson on this, on both the timing of an inquiry and the remit. Now, the reason I called for the Record to be set straight was that full responsibility had not been handed to the independent chair and that the UK Prime Minister still had the responsibility of signing off the terms of reference - the all-important terms of reference of the inquiry. So, as the First Minister has written to me today to say that he is not going to take this opportunity to correct the Record, will the health Minister at least confirm that which is factually correct: that the First Minister was wrong to say that Boris Johnson had no further role or influence on the setting-up of the inquiry, because he had? We need a Welsh inquiry. The Welsh Government won't give us that, but at least be honest with us.
Welsh: - ysgrifennais at y Prif Weinidog ar 27 Ebrill, yn gofyn iddo gywiro'r Cofnod, Cofnod y Senedd, ar ôl iddo ddweud bod y cyfrifoldeb am ymchwiliad cyhoeddus i COVID 'wedi symud i ddwylo'r barnwr annibynnol a benodwyd i'w arwain.' Roedd yn ateb cwestiwn a ofynnodd Heledd Fychan. Nawr, fel rhywun sydd wedi galw'n gyson am ymchwiliad i Gymru yn unig i sicrhau bod materion yn cael eu hystyried yn iawn o safbwynt Cymru - ac mae'r rhain yn faterion hollbwysig, wrth gwrs, ynghylch amgylchiadau miloedd o farwolaethau yma yng Nghymru - nid wyf i'n hapus ein bod yn rhan o ymchwiliad y DU yn unig nad wyf i'n credu y gall edrych yn ddigon fforensig ar y sefyllfa yma yng Nghymru, ac, fel yr wyf i wedi ei ddweud dro ar ôl tro, rwy'n rhwystredig bod Llywodraeth Lafur Cymru wedi bod yn hapus i ymddiried yn Boris Johnson ar hyn, ar amseriad ymchwiliad a'r cylch gwaith. Nawr, y rheswm y galwais am gywiro'r Cofnod oedd oherwydd nad oedd cyfrifoldeb llawn wedi ei roi i'r cadeirydd annibynnol a bod Prif Weinidog y DU yn dal i fod yn gyfrifol am gymeradwyo'r cylch gorchwyl - cylch gorchwyl holl bwysig yr ymchwiliad. Felly, gan fod y Prif Weinidog wedi ysgrifennu ataf heddiw i ddweud nad yw'n mynd i achub ar y cyfle hwn i gywiro'r Cofnod, a wnaiff y Gweinidog iechyd o leiaf gadarnhau yr hyn sy'n ffeithiol gywir: fod y Prif Weinidog yn anghywir i ddweud nad oedd gan Boris Johnson unrhyw swyddogaeth na dylanwad pellach ar sefydlu'r ymchwiliad, oherwydd bod hyn ganddo? Mae angen ymchwiliad i Gymru arnom. Ni fydd Llywodraeth Cymru yn rhoi hynny i ni, ond o leiaf byddwch yn onest gyda ni.
