English: Thanks very much. Well, I have asked HEIW to do some work on this, so I'll come on to that in a second, if you don't mind. The second point that I think is really important to understand is, even if those tools were available for every nursing situation, it's simply inaccurate to suggest that extending section 25B to all of those areas would result in giving Wales 'the full team of nurses', as the petition puts it, and that's simply because, at the moment, those nurses don't exist. So, the nursing staff shortage is an issue that's being experienced globally; it's not just a Welsh issue. The World Health Organization has estimated that nursing and midwifery vacancies currently represent more than 50 per cent of the global shortage of health workers. Now, we know that there are significant registered nursing vacancies already in our health boards and across our care sectors, and this is not an issue that would be directly addressed by any extension to section 25B of the Nurse Staffing Levels (Wales) Act. Now, we're already doing a huge amount to recruit and to train nurses. The number of commissioned training places has increased by 69 per cent to 2,396 since 2016, so that would take us a long way towards those 3,000 that you have identified. But we need to recognise that the problem is retention, and that's why I have asked HEIW to do more work on retention specifically of nursing staff. I'm delighted that, on Friday, I'll be going to Aberystwyth to open the new centre where we will be training more nurses in Wales, and I think it's really important that we understand also - . And I recognise that we're spending too much money now on agency nurses, so I've asked again for some work to be done on that. How do we bring the cost of agency nurses down? It's not straightforward. If you give our current nurses more money, then the agency staffing costs will go up and we've still got gaps. So, none of it is straightforward, but I've asked some key people to help, come up with some ideas for how we can -
Welsh: Diolch yn fawr. Wel, gofynnais i Addysg a Gwella Iechyd Cymru wneud ychydig o waith ar hyn, felly dof at hynny mewn eiliad, os nad oes ots gennych. Yr ail bwynt y credaf ei bod yn bwysig iawn ei ddeall yw, hyd yn oed pe bai'r adnoddau hynny ar gael ar gyfer pob sefyllfa nyrsio, mae'n anghywir awgrymu y byddai ymestyn adran 25B i gynnwys pob un o'r meysydd hynny'n arwain at roi'r 'tîm llawn o nyrsys' i Gymru, fel y mae'r ddeiseb yn ei roi, a hynny'n syml am nad yw'r nyrsys hynny'n bodoli ar hyn o bryd. Felly, mae'r prinder staff nyrsio yn broblem a brofir yn fyd-eang; nid problem yng Nghymru'n unig yw hi. Mae Sefydliad Iechyd y Byd wedi amcangyfrif mai swyddi gwag ym maes nyrsio a bydwreigiaeth ar hyn o bryd yw mwy na 50 y cant o'r prinder byd-eang o weithwyr iechyd. Nawr, gwyddom fod cryn dipyn o swyddi nyrsys cofrestredig eisoes yn wag yn ein byrddau iechyd ac ar draws ein sectorau gofal, ac nad yw hyn yn fater a fyddai'n cael ei ddatrys yn uniongyrchol drwy ymestyn adran 25B o Ddeddf Lefelau Staff Nyrsio (Cymru). Nawr, rydym eisoes yn gwneud llawer iawn i recriwtio a hyfforddi nyrsys. Mae nifer y llefydd hyfforddi a gomisiynwyd wedi cynyddu 69 y cant i 2,396 ers 2016, felly byddai hynny'n mynd â ni'n bell tuag at y 3,000 a nodwyd gennych. Ond mae angen inni gydnabod mai cadw staff yw'r broblem, a dyna pam fy mod wedi gofyn i Addysg a Gwella Iechyd Cymru wneud mwy o waith ar gadw staff nyrsio yn benodol. Rwy'n falch iawn o fynd i Aberystwyth ddydd Gwener i agor y ganolfan newydd lle byddwn yn hyfforddi rhagor o nyrsys yng Nghymru, ac rwy'n credu ei bod hi'n bwysig iawn ein bod ni'n deall hefyd - . Ac rwy'n cydnabod ein bod yn gwario gormod o arian yn awr ar nyrsys asiantaeth, felly rwyf wedi gofyn eto am i rywfaint o waith gael ei wneud ar hynny. Sut mae gostwng cost nyrsys asiantaeth? Nid yw'n syml. Os ydych chi'n rhoi mwy o arian i'n nyrsys presennol, bydd costau staff asiantaeth yn codi ac mae gennym fylchau o hyd. Felly, nid oes dim ohono'n syml, ond rwyf wedi gofyn i rai pobl allweddol helpu, i feddwl am syniadau ar gyfer sut y gallwn -
