English: Thank you, Minister, for that statement. Some of our most vulnerable people in our society, children with autism, should be protected and cared for, not made to suffer in such vile circumstances as alleged in this case. There are some serious questions, and this must be now fully investigated by relevant authorities. There are a litany of shocking and troubling allegations against the staff at Tŷ Coryton, some of which I can't repeat, but on one occasion and most seriously, the restraint of a child was so badly managed that it provoked very serious concerns that that child might die. Whistleblowers report that all of these allegations were directly a result of staff interventions and point to a culture of mismanagement provoking challenging behaviour that falls way short of the high standards we expect for staff charged with such an important job. Are these allegations reflective of a systematic problem in Wales? Could other young children be suffering in similar ways? Action needs to be taken now, Minister, to resolve this. I'm pleased to hear that the Minister will be publishing the long-awaited reducing restrictive practice framework, but this is far too late for these children's and, I fear, others. Can I impress upon her that that needs to be published now to prevent more young children suffering in this way? And can she also tell us what steps she's taking to provide advice and guidance for centres such as Tŷ Coryton, to ensure that they are providing a therapeutic environment as recommended by the British Institute of Learning Disabilities? Will the Minister also make sure that centres like this have the necessary resources that they need to ensure basic human decency and human rights can be maintained, such as providing sanitary items, a claim that was alleged that I found particularly disturbing? I understand that the care inspectorate are about to publish a review into practices at Tŷ Coryton, but these alleged allegations certainly now call the veracity of that report into question. Is the Minister confident that these reports are conducted with sufficient rigour to highlight issues such as these, to ensure that they are addressed promptly? Will the centre and others owned by Orbis now be re-inspected to ensure that children in their care are properly protected? Lastly, if there is a systematic issue here, what steps is the Minister taking to ensure that the culture of reporting exists in the care sector in Wales and to ensure that staff have the support network in place and are comfortable enough with that to raise concerns and these reports are taken seriously and acted on, rather than them having to resort to the media, as in this case? Thank you.
Welsh: Diolch am y datganiad hwnnw, Weinidog. Dylid diogelu a gofalu am rai o'r bobl fwyaf agored i niwed yn ein cymdeithas, plant ag awtistiaeth, nid eu gwneud i ddioddef mewn amgylchiadau erchyll fel y rhai a honnir yn yr achos hwn. Mae cwestiynau difrifol i'w hateb, a rhaid i awdurdodau perthnasol ymchwilio'n llawn i hyn yn awr. Mae cyfres o honiadau brawychus a thrallodus wedi'u gwneud yn erbyn staff Tŷ Coryton, a rhai ohonynt yn bethau na allaf mo'u hailadrodd, ond ar un achlysur ac yn fwyaf difrifol, cafodd arferion cyfyngol ar blentyn eu rheoli mor wael fel eu bod wedi ysgogi pryderon difrifol iawn y gallai'r plentyn hwnnw farw. Dywed chwythwyr chwiban fod yr holl honiadau hyn yn deillio'n uniongyrchol o ymyriadau staff ac yn dynodi diwylliant o gamreoli'n ysgogi ymddygiad heriol sy'n brin iawn o'r safonau uchel a ddisgwyliwn ar gyfer staff sy'n gwneud swydd mor bwysig. A yw'r honiadau hyn yn adlewyrchu problem systematig yng Nghymru? A allai plant ifanc eraill fod yn dioddef mewn ffyrdd tebyg? Mae angen rhoi camau ar waith yn awr i ddatrys hyn, Weinidog. Rwy'n falch o glywed y bydd y Gweinidog yn cyhoeddi'r fframwaith hirddisgwyliedig ar leihau arferion cyfyngol, ond mae'n llawer rhy hwyr i'r plant hyn, ac i blant eraill hefyd, mae arnaf ofn. A gaf fi bwysleisio wrthi fod angen cyhoeddi'r fframwaith yn awr i atal mwy o blant ifanc rhag dioddef fel hyn? Ac a all ddweud wrthym hefyd pa gamau y mae'n eu cymryd i roi cyngor ac arweiniad i ganolfannau fel Tŷ Coryton, i sicrhau eu bod yn darparu amgylchedd therapiwtig fel yr argymhellwyd gan Sefydliad Anableddau Dysgu Prydain? A wnaiff y Gweinidog hefyd sicrhau bod gan ganolfannau fel hyn yr adnoddau angenrheidiol sydd eu hangen arnynt i sicrhau y gellir cynnal parch dynol sylfaenol a hawliau dynol, megis darparu eitemau misglwyf, un o'r honiadau mwyaf annymunol yn fy marn i? Deallaf fod yr arolygiaeth gofal ar fin cyhoeddi adolygiad o arferion yn Nhŷ Coryton, ond mae'r honiadau hyn bellach yn sicr yn codi cwestiynau ynglŷn â dilysrwydd yr adroddiad hwnnw. A yw'r Gweinidog yn hyderus fod yr adroddiadau hyn yn cael eu cyflawni'n ddigon trylwyr i dynnu sylw at faterion fel y rhain, er mwyn sicrhau yr eir i'r afael â hwy'n gyflym? A fydd y ganolfan ac eraill sy'n eiddo i Orbis bellach yn cael eu hail-arolygu i sicrhau bod plant yn eu gofal yn cael eu diogelu'n briodol? Yn olaf, os oes problem systematig yma, pa gamau y mae'r Gweinidog yn eu cymryd i sicrhau bod y diwylliant o adrodd am bryderon yn bodoli yn y sector gofal yng Nghymru ac i sicrhau bod gan staff rwydwaith cymorth ar waith a'u bod yn ddigon cyfforddus gyda hynny i godi pryderon a bod yr adroddiadau hyn yn cael eu hystyried yn ddifrifol a chamau gweithredu'n cael eu rhoi ar waith, yn hytrach na gorfod troi at y cyfryngau fel yn yr achos hwn? Diolch.
