English: I recognise that core medical training is a real concern. Just because it's a real concern in other parts of the UK doesn't mean that we don't have a problem here, because we do, and it's a very real challenge for us to take on board. And, actually, it's part of the conversations that we have had. I had a very constructive conversation with the Royal College of Physicians, as well as other partners and stakeholders. Part of the honest and mature conversation that we have to have is that, given that we all know that this is a big problem, how would we look at what we can positively do, given that we know that those shortages exist in other parts of the UK too? Some of that is, if you like, the competition between different parts of the UK to try and recruit and retain the same people. Part of the Royal College of Physicians' concern has been the way in which the health service is often talked about makes it a less attractive career for other people who might otherwise have wanted to go into a career in medicine. There are different things that we need to look at and do. So, I won't pretend to you that there is a single answer that I have hidden somewhere in my pocket to reveal and to resolve the whole of the problem - that would not be a smart way to go about this. I couldn't pretend to you that everything will be fine within six months' time, but what I can say is that I think we have the right partners having the conversations with us, with officials here in the Government, with health boards, and, as I said earlier, leading into the creation of Health Education Wales to have a more joined-up and intelligent conversation about who we want and how we get them. And it's the how we get them, I think, which is the more challenging part, rather than trying to understand, in workforce terms, who would ideally like to be working in the service.
Welsh: Rwy'n cydnabod bod hyfforddiant meddygol craidd yn bryder gwirioneddol. Nid yw'r ffaith ei fod yn bryder gwirioneddol mewn rhannau eraill o'r DU yn golygu nad oes gennym broblem yma, oherwydd mae gennym broblem, ac mae'n her wirioneddol i ni ei hystyried. Ac mewn gwirionedd, mae'n rhan o'r sgyrsiau a gawsom. Cefais sgwrs adeiladol iawn gyda Choleg Brenhinol y Meddygon, yn ogystal â phartneriaid a rhanddeiliaid eraill. Rhan o'r sgwrs onest ac aeddfed sy'n rhaid i ni ei chael, o ystyried ein bod i gyd yn gwybod bod hon yn broblem fawr, yw sut y byddem yn edrych ar yr hyn y gallwn ei wneud yn gadarnhaol, o ystyried ein bod yn gwybod bod y prinder hwnnw'n bodoli mewn rhannau eraill o'r DU hefyd? Mae rhywfaint o hynny, os hoffech, yn ymwneud â'r gystadleuaeth rhwng gwahanol rannau o'r DU i geisio recriwtio a chadw'r un bobl. Un o bryderon Coleg Brenhinol y Meddygon yw bod y modd y siaredir am y gwasanaeth iechyd yn aml yn ei gwneud yn yrfa lai deniadol i bobl eraill a allai fod wedi bod eisiau dilyn gyrfa mewn meddygaeth fel arall. Mae yna wahanol bethau y mae angen i ni edrych arnynt a'u gwneud. Felly, nid wyf am esgus bod gennyf un ateb rwyf wedi'i guddio yn rhywle yn fy mhoced i'w ddatgelu ac i ddatrys y broblem gyfan - ni fyddai honno'n ffordd glyfar iawn o fynd i'r afael â hyn. Ni fyddwn yn gallu esgus y bydd popeth yn iawn o fewn chwe mis, ond fe allaf ddweud fy mod yn credu bod gennym y partneriaid cywir yn cael y sgyrsiau gyda ni, gyda swyddogion yma yn y Llywodraeth, gyda byrddau iechyd, ac fel y dywedais yn gynharach, yn arwain at greu Addysg Iechyd Cymru i gael sgwrs fwy cydgysylltiedig a deallus ynglŷn â phwy rydym eu heisiau a sut i'w cael. Ac rwy'n credu mai'r ffordd rydym yn eu cael yw'r rhan fwyaf heriol, yn hytrach na cheisio deall, o ran y gweithlu, pwy fyddai'n hoffi gweithio yn y gwasanaeth yn ddelfrydol.
