English: Thank you very much. I don't think that I would disagree with what you've said in terms of the severe pressure on social services, and particularly in regard to children's services. I want to reassure you that my officials are currently working with local government to identify where those pressure points are and where additional funding in this financial year can be of use, bearing in mind that point you made about the number of children coming forward with referrals increasing, but also the complexity for all the reasons that we would understand in terms of the last couple of years that they've been through. So, that additional funding is already there this year, but I'm more than happy to look for more should it be required. Those discussions are ongoing at the moment. And then of course, retaining staff within the social care sector is absolutely paramount. Clearly, they have had a really, really hard couple of years as well in terms of the work that they've been doing, supporting some of the most vulnerable people in society, and our commitment to pay the real living wage is a really important one, as are other ways to look at recognising and supporting social care workers. For example, they are sometimes asked to pay for some things that they need for their job; we need to look at that to see if there's more that we can be doing in those areas. The Minister for Health and Social Services and the Deputy Minister for Social Services meet every week now with the Welsh Local Government Association spokesperson and leader to explore what more we can be doing to support the social care sector.
Welsh: Diolch yn fawr iawn. Nid wyf yn credu y byddwn yn anghytuno â'r hyn rydych wedi'i ddweud ynglŷn â'r pwysau difrifol ar wasanaethau cymdeithasol, ac yn enwedig mewn perthynas â gwasanaethau plant. Hoffwn eich sicrhau bod fy swyddogion ar hyn o bryd yn gweithio gyda llywodraeth leol i nodi lle mae'r pwysau a lle gall cyllid ychwanegol yn y flwyddyn ariannol hon fod o ddefnydd, o gofio'r pwynt a wnaethoch fod nifer y plant sydd ag atgyfeiriadau'n cynyddu, ond hefyd y cymhlethdod am yr holl resymau y byddem yn eu deall yng nghyd-destun eu profiadau dros y flwyddyn neu ddwy ddiwethaf. Felly, mae'r cyllid ychwanegol yno eisoes eleni, ond rwy'n fwy na pharod i edrych am ragor pe bai ei angen. Mae'r trafodaethau hynny'n parhau ar hyn o bryd. Ac yna, wrth gwrs, mae cadw staff o fewn y sector gofal cymdeithasol yn hollbwysig. Yn amlwg, maent wedi cael blwyddyn neu ddwy wirioneddol anodd hefyd o safbwynt y gwaith y maent wedi bod yn ei wneud, yn cefnogi rhai o'r bobl fwyaf agored i niwed mewn cymdeithas, ac mae ein hymrwymiad i dalu'r cyflog byw gwirioneddol yn un pwysig iawn, yn ogystal â ffyrdd eraill o edrych ar gydnabod a chynnal gweithwyr gofal cymdeithasol. Er enghraifft, weithiau gofynnir iddynt dalu am rai o'r pethau y maent eu hangen ar gyfer eu swydd; mae angen inni edrych ar hynny i weld a oes mwy y gallwn ei wneud yn y meysydd hynny. Mae'r Gweinidog Iechyd a Gwasanaethau Cymdeithasol a'r Dirprwy Weinidog Gwasanaethau Cymdeithasol yn cyfarfod bob wythnos yn awr gyda llefarydd ac arweinydd Cymdeithas Llywodraeth Leol Cymru i archwilio beth arall y gallwn ei wneud i gefnogi'r sector gofal cymdeithasol.
