English: There is no need for anyone to be reassessed if they don't want to be. Everybody will be offered the opportunity, but there is absolutely no need, and as the carers survey does show that many are satisfied with what they've got, we don't anticipate everybody wanting to be reassessed. It's only people who want to be reassessed, who are unhappy with the arrangement, who will have the opportunity, and they will have the opportunity of an independent social worker. Secondly, the Welsh Government will provide additional funding to local authorities for the cost of independent social workers and additional care hours that may result from these independent assessments. This means that there can be no question of changes to a care and support package being a cost-cutting exercise. The underpinning principle in undertaking that independent assessment is that the result should be consistent with people's agreed well-being outcomes, and as there is no financial barrier, no-one needs to have less favourable care and support than they had under the Welsh independent living grant. These arrangements acknowledge the historical entitlement of former recipients. It is a significant change of approach that ensures that the needs of former recipients will be fully met and that resources are no barrier to a full package of care and support. In fact, I believe that these new arrangements are much stronger than the Welsh independent living grant, and that is why we are seeking to amend the motion before us today. The Government amendment will enable the whole Assembly to get behind my plan to put something better in place. We will accept the Conservative amendment today. Access to independent assessment and new resources to back up the potential outcomes of these assessments are at the core of this new approach, and it's because of these key features that Nathan Davies and his colleagues from the #SaveWILG campaign are supportive, in principle, of the approach that I intend to take. In fact, they have published their welcoming of what I'm saying here today. But, of course, we share a common interest in seeing that it's implemented properly, and that is one of the key issues. To go back to some of the other questions that were raised during the debate: yes, we are committed to a social model and that is what we will be working on. I think Llyr asked if there could be a commission on disabled people. I can just assure him that we are totally committed to looking at the needs of disabled people and, in this job, I will be having that at the forefront of what we do. And I know there's been a few calls for me to apologise. Well, I don't intend to apologise today because this policy has come about in good faith. The recipients - people who are disabled who have been leading the campaign - don't want us to apologise. They're rejoicing at what we've achieved. So, I think that what we need to take forward today is to make sure that these new arrangements work and that we make sure that disabled people, this severely disabled group of people, have the best possible care they can have during these arrangements that we've put forward.
Welsh: Nid oes angen i neb gael ei ailasesu os nad ydynt eisiau hynny. Bydd pawb yn cael y cyfle, ond nid oes angen gwneud hynny o gwbl, a gan fod yr arolwg gofalwyr yn dangos bod nifer yn fodlon â'r hyn y maent yn ei gael, nid ydym yn rhagweld y bydd pawb eisiau cael eu hailasesu. Mae'n gyfle i'r bobl sydd am gael eu hailasesu, sy'n anhapus gyda'r trefniant, a chânt gyfle i gael gweithiwr cymdeithasol annibynnol. Yn ail, bydd Llywodraeth Cymru yn darparu cyllid ychwanegol i awdurdodau lleol am gost gweithwyr cymdeithasol annibynnol ac oriau gofal ychwanegol a allai ddeillio o'r asesiadau annibynnol hyn. Mae hyn yn golygu na all fod unrhyw gwestiwn fod y newidiadau i'r pecyn gofal a chymorth yn ymarfer torri costau. Yr egwyddor sylfaenol sy'n sail i gynnal yr asesiad annibynnol yw y dylai'r canlyniad fod yn gyson â'r canlyniadau llesiant y cytunwyd arnynt gyda'r bobl, a gan nad oes rhwystr ariannol, nid oes angen i neb gael gofal a chymorth llai ffafriol nag y byddent yn ei gael o dan grant byw'n annibynnol Cymru. Mae'r trefniadau hyn yn cydnabod hawl hanesyddol y rhai a arferai dderbyn y grant. Mae'n newid sylweddol i'r dull o weithredu sy'n sicrhau y bydd anghenion y sawl a gâi'r grant yn flaenorol yn cael eu diwallu'n llawn ac nad yw adnoddau'n rhwystr i becyn llawn o ofal a chymorth. Yn wir, credaf fod y trefniadau newydd hyn yn llawer cryfach na grant byw'n annibynnol Cymru, a dyna pam yr ydym yn ceisio newid y cynnig sydd ger ein bron heddiw. Bydd gwelliant y Llywodraeth yn galluogi'r Cynulliad cyfan i gefnogi fy nghynllun i sefydlu rhywbeth gwell. Byddwn yn derbyn gwelliant y Ceidwadwyr heddiw. Mae mynediad at asesiad annibynnol ac adnoddau newydd i gefnogi canlyniadau posibl yr asesiadau hyn yn ganolog i'r dull newydd hwn, ac mae Nathan Davies a'i gyd-aelodau o ymgyrch #SaveWILG yn cefnogi, mewn egwyddor, y dull y bwriadaf ei roi ar waith oherwydd y nodweddion allweddol hyn. Yn wir, maent wedi cyhoeddi eu bod yn croesawu'r hyn rwy'n ei ddweud yma heddiw. Ond wrth gwrs, rydym yn rhannu diddordeb cyffredin mewn sicrhau y caiff ei weithredu'n briodol, a dyna un o'r materion allweddol. I fynd yn ôl at rai o'r cwestiynau eraill a godwyd yn ystod y ddadl: rydym wedi ymrwymo i fodel cymdeithasol a dyna y byddwn yn gweithio arno. Rwy'n credu bod Llyr wedi gofyn am y posibilrwydd o gael comisiwn ar bobl anabl. Gallaf ei sicrhau ein bod yn gwbl ymrwymedig i edrych ar anghenion pobl anabl ac yn y swydd hon, byddaf yn rhoi hynny ar y blaen yn yr hyn a wnawn. A gwn y bu rhai yn galw am imi ymddiheuro. Wel, nid wyf yn bwriadu ymddiheuro heddiw oherwydd lluniwyd y polisi hwn gyda phob ewyllys da. Nid yw'r rhai sy'n derbyn y grant - pobl sy'n anabl ac sydd wedi bod yn arwain yr ymgyrch - eisiau inni ymddiheuro. Maent yn llawenhau ynglŷn â'r hyn a gyflawnwyd gennym. Felly, credaf fod angen inni fwrw ymlaen heddiw i wneud yn siŵr fod y trefniadau newydd hyn yn gweithio a sicrhau bod pobl anabl, y grŵp anabl iawn hwn o bobl, yn cael y gofal gorau posibl y gallant ei gael yn ystod y trefniadau a gyflwynwyd gennym.
