English: Thank you very much. So, in my contribution, if I may continue, Deputy Presiding Officer, I'd like to focus on emergency waiting times initially and how, quite frankly, we see this area continuing to fail. The statistics are shocking. As already outlined today, we see one in five on a waiting list; one in four in Wales waiting over 52 weeks for an appointment; and, in addition to this, since just August we've seen those waiting over two years more than treble across Wales. Now, in looking at my region in north Wales, the health board in north Wales has more people on waiting lists than any other health board in Wales, and I'm afraid these statistics continue to get worse when looking at those in accident and emergency units. Within four hours, we see some of the worst waiting times in accident and emergency units - within four hours - in Wales than anywhere else across Britain. They are deeply concerning statistics. Again, coming back to my region in north Wales, for example in Ysbyty Glan Clwyd, one of the main hospitals in north Wales, one in four patients had to wait in accident and emergency for over 12 hours. Looking at ambulance response times, north Wales has one of the worst response times in Wales. I've stood up here before and talked about this north-south divide, and, again, in terms of health outcomes and health performances, we see a north-south divide. Health is not performing anywhere near as well in north Wales as it is across in other places in Wales. I come back to this point: 23 years to solve some of these issues. We do forget sometimes, sadly, that people are paying for this service. People are paying through their taxes to sit in accident and emergency for over 12 hours; people are paying to wait for hours and hours and hours for an ambulance to turn up to help them out. This really isn't acceptable. The second area to focus on, I believe, is the cancer waiting times. Staggeringly, prior to the pandemic, the target for cancer waiting times had not been met since 2008. In addition to this, the Welsh cancer intelligence unit's data sadly shows that Wales has the lowest survival rates for six cancers and the second lowest for three cancers in all of the UK. Of course, deeply concerning for patients and families up and down Wales. It's clear to me that the plans that the Welsh Government have are not working. When looking at some of the most up-to-date statistics, we can see that the Welsh Government is still failing on cancer targets. In February this year, just 59 per cent of patients newly diagnosed with cancer started their first definitive treatment within 62 days of first being suspected of cancer - well below the 75 per cent target. Again, it's worrying for patients and families across Wales that these targets are being missed. I mentioned it in my contribution earlier, Minister, in terms of the question. My worry for much of this - and we'll stand here and we'll highlight these issues - is the trust that this erodes in the health service and in the targets and the actions that the Government are looking to take to improve the health service. If that trust goes, then we're really, really struggling to bring our residents along with us.
Welsh: Diolch yn fawr iawn. Felly, yn fy nghyfraniad, os caf barhau, Ddirprwy Lywydd, hoffwn ganolbwyntio ar amseroedd aros brys i ddechrau a sut, yn wir, y gwelwn y maes hwn yn parhau i fethu. Mae'r ystadegau'n frawychus. Fel yr amlinellwyd eisoes heddiw, gwelwn un o bob pump ar restr aros; un o bob pedwar yng Nghymru yn aros dros 52 wythnos am apwyntiad; ac yn ogystal â hyn, ers mis Awst rydym wedi gweld bod nifer y rhai sy'n aros dros ddwy flynedd wedi mwy na threblu ledled Cymru. Nawr, wrth edrych ar fy rhanbarth yn y gogledd, mae gan y bwrdd iechyd yng ngogledd Cymru fwy o bobl ar restrau aros nag unrhyw fwrdd iechyd arall yng Nghymru, ac mae arnaf ofn fod yr ystadegau hyn yn parhau i waethygu wrth edrych ar y rheini mewn unedau damweiniau ac achosion brys. O fewn pedair awr, gwelwn rai o'r amseroedd aros gwaethaf mewn unedau damweiniau ac achosion brys - o fewn pedair awr - yng Nghymru nag yn unman arall ledled Prydain. Maent yn ystadegau sy'n peri pryder mawr. Unwaith eto, os caf ddychwelyd at fy rhanbarth yng ngogledd Cymru, er enghraifft yn Ysbyty Glan Clwyd, un o'r prif ysbytai yn y gogledd, bu'n rhaid i un o bob pedwar claf aros yn yr adran ddamweiniau ac achosion brys am dros 12 awr. Wrth edrych ar amseroedd ymateb ambiwlansys, mae amseroedd ymateb gogledd Cymru ymhlith y gwaethaf yng Nghymru. Rwyf wedi sefyll yma o'r blaen ac wedi siarad am y rhaniad rhwng y gogledd a'r de, ac unwaith eto, gyda chanlyniadau iechyd a pherfformiadau iechyd, gwelwn raniad rhwng y gogledd a'r de. Nid yw iechyd yn perfformio agos cystal yn y gogledd ag mewn mannau eraill yng Nghymru. Dof yn ôl at y pwynt hwn: 23 mlynedd i ddatrys rhai o'r materion hyn. Rydym yn anghofio weithiau, yn anffodus, fod pobl yn talu am y gwasanaeth hwn. Mae pobl yn talu drwy eu trethi i eistedd mewn adrannau damweiniau ac achosion brys am dros 12 awr, mae pobl yn talu i aros am oriau di-ben-draw i ambiwlans ddod i'w helpu. Nid yw hyn yn dderbyniol o gwbl. Yr ail faes i ganolbwyntio arno, rwy'n credu, yw'r amseroedd aros canser. Yn frawychus, cyn y pandemig, nid oedd y targed ar gyfer amseroedd aros canser wedi'i gyrraedd ers 2008. Yn ogystal â hyn, mae data uned gwybodaeth canser Cymru'n dangos, yn anffodus, mai Cymru sydd â'r cyfraddau goroesi isaf ar gyfer chwe math o ganser a'r ail isaf ar gyfer tri math o ganser yn y DU gyfan. Wrth gwrs, mae'n peri pryder mawr i gleifion a theuluoedd ar hyd a lled Cymru. Mae'n amlwg i mi nad yw'r cynlluniau sydd gan Lywodraeth Cymru yn gweithio. Wrth edrych ar rai o'r ystadegau diweddaraf, gallwn weld bod Llywodraeth Cymru yn dal i fethu ar dargedau canser. Ym mis Chwefror eleni, dim ond 59 y cant o gleifion a oedd newydd gael diagnosis o ganser a ddechreuodd eu triniaeth benodol gyntaf o fewn 62 diwrnod i'r amheuaeth gyntaf o ganser - ymhell islaw'r targed o 75 y cant. Unwaith eto, mae'n destun pryder i gleifion a theuluoedd ledled Cymru fod y targedau hyn yn cael eu methu. Soniais amdano yn fy nghwestiwn yn gynharach, Weinidog. Fy mhryder mewn perthynas â llawer o hyn - a byddwn yn sefyll yma a byddwn yn tynnu sylw at y materion hyn - yw'r ffaith bod hyn yn erydu ymddiriedaeth yn y gwasanaeth iechyd a'r targedau a'r camau y mae'r Llywodraeth yn bwriadu eu cymryd i wella'r gwasanaeth iechyd. Os bydd yr ymddiriedaeth honno'n diflannu, byddwn yn ei chael hi'n anodd tu hwnt i ddod â'n trigolion gyda ni.
