English: I'm very pleased to hear that, and I do hope that Members here, in representing their constituents, will remind their health boards in their constituencies and regions that they have that discretion. I'm also pleased to hear the Minister mention long COVID and its impact on children particularly. I am concerned that there is a lack of support for children and young people with long COVID. I've spoken to a number of parents - one who said that they'd had to wait five months for a referral, and had had to go private to a paediatrician, and paid hundreds of pounds per month for a chiropractor to give some comfort to her son. The Long Covid Kids organisation say that it's still difficult to get professional health workers, doctors and so on, to accept that what's in front of them is actually long COVID. So, can the Minister tell us what research the Welsh Government is willing to commission and invest into long COVID, and its impact on children and young people particularly, and what can be done to ensure that that support is available for children and young people, because they will be left behind because of the time it is happening in their life cycle?
Welsh: Dwi'n falch iawn o glywed hynny, a dwi'n gobeithio y bydd Aelodau yma, wrth gynrychioli eu hetholwyr nhw, yn atgoffa eu byrddau iechyd yn eu rhanbarthau a'u hetholaethau nhw fod y disgresiwn yna ganddyn nhw. Dwi'n falch o glywed y Gweinidog yn sôn am COVID hir, ac fel mae o'n effeithio plant yn arbennig. Dwi yn bryderus bod yna ddiffyg cefnogaeth i blant a phobl ifanc efo COVID hir. Rydw innau wedi siarad efo nifer o rieni - un yn dweud eu bod nhw wedi gorfod aros pum mis am referral, ac wedi gorfod mynd yn breifat at paediatrician yn y pen draw, a thalu cannoedd y mis am chiropractor er mwyn rhoi rhyw fath o gysur i'w mab hi. Mae mudiad Long Covid Kids yn dweud ei bod hi dal yn anodd cael gweithwyr iechyd proffesiynol, meddygon ac ati, i dderbyn bod rhywbeth sydd o'u blaenau nhw yn COVID hir. A all y Gweinidog ddweud wrthym ni pa ymchwil mae Llywodraeth Cymru yn barod i'w gomisiynu a buddsoddi ynddo fo, i mewn i COVID hir, ac fel mae o'n effeithio plant a phobl ifanc yn arbennig, a beth all gael ei wneud i sicrhau bod y gefnogaeth yno ar gyfer plant a phobl ifanc, achos maen nhw'n mynd i gael eu gadael ar ôl oherwydd yr amser mae hwn yn digwydd o fewn eu bywydau nhw?
English: You are quite right, and I think that we have to be very careful. The impact on children is something that's going to affect them for a long time if we don't deal with this issue at an early stage. We will be having an update on the recovery before long, and I've asked to ensure that we do consider children as we look at how that programme proceeds. And you're aware that, as we develop that plan, it is something that we wanted to see changing as we learn more about the virus and about the way in which people are suffering. The fact that we are still, every six months, having an opportunity to look again at what's happening does give us an opportunity to look at what you've pointed out today.
Welsh: Rŷch chi'n eithaf reit, a dwi'n meddwl bod rhaid inni fod yn wyliadwrus iawn. Mae'r effaith ar blant yn rhywbeth sydd yn mynd i effeithio arnyn nhw am amser hir os nad ydyn ni'n delio gydag e'n gynnar. Mi fyddwn ni'n cael update ar adferiad cyn bo hir, a dwi wedi gofyn i wneud yn siŵr ein bod ni'n ystyried plant wrth inni edrych ar y rhaglen. Ac rydych chi'n ymwybodol, wrth inni ddatblygu'r cynllun yna, fod hwn yn rhywbeth roeddwn i eisiau gweld yn newid wrth ein bod ni'n dysgu mwy am y feirws ac am y ffordd mae pobl yn dioddef. Felly, mae'r ffaith ein bod ni o hyd, pob chwe mis, â chyfle i ailedrych ar beth sy'n digwydd dwi'n meddwl yn rhoi cyfle inni edrych ar yr hyn rŷch chi wedi pwyntio allan heddiw.
English: Question 3 [OQ58355] has been withdrawn. Question 4, Joel James.
Welsh: Mae cwestiwn 3 [OQ58355] wedi'i dynnu yn ôl. Cwestiwn 4, Joel James.
English: Thank you very much. Our programme for transforming and modernising planned care, published in April, included a commitment to continue to promote key messages about cancer symptoms and to encourage people to come forward with suspected cancer. We're also happy to support and amplify messages from cancer charities in Wales.
Welsh: Diolch yn fawr iawn. Roedd ein rhaglen ar gyfer trawsnewid a moderneiddio gofal wedi'i gynllunio, a gyhoeddwyd ym mis Ebrill, yn cynnwys ymrwymiad i barhau i hyrwyddo negeseuon allweddol am symptomau canser ac annog pobl gydag amheuaeth o ganser i ddod i gael eu gweld. Rydym hefyd yn hapus i gefnogi a hyrwyddo negeseuon gan elusennau canser yng Nghymru.
English: Thank you, Minister. As you are aware, holistic needs assessments are provided to brain cancer patients as a way of them identifying and communicating to their key workers their holistic needs and allowing a suitable care plan to be put into place. The use of a HNA and care plan is essential for a good patient experience. It ensures that patients are supported in all aspects of their treatment and care, and is exceptionally important for brain tumour patients, due to their varied and complex needs. The Brain Tumour Charity's improving brain tumour care survey shows that only 30 per cent of respondents said they were offered a holistic needs assessment, and just 11 per cent of the respondents felt that the resulting care plan from their HNA was working well. With this is mind, Minister, what steps are being taken to ensure that all brain tumour patients in Wales are provided with a HNA and resulting care plan? And will this Government commit to ensuring that all brain tumour patients are offered this crucial form of support as part of their care? Thank you.
Welsh: Diolch yn fawr, Weinidog. Fel y gwyddoch, darperir asesiadau anghenion cyfannol i gleifion canser yr ymennydd fel ffordd o nodi a chyfathrebu eu hanghenion cyfannol ar gyfer eu gweithwyr allweddol a chaniatáu i gynllun gofal addas gael ei roi ar waith. Mae defnyddio asesiadau anghenion cyfannol a chynllun gofal yn hanfodol ar gyfer profiad da i gleifion. Mae'n sicrhau bod cleifion yn cael eu cefnogi ym mhob agwedd ar eu triniaeth a'u gofal, ac mae'n eithriadol o bwysig i gleifion tiwmor yr ymennydd, oherwydd eu hanghenion amrywiol a chymhleth. Mae arolwg y Brain Tumour Charity ar wella gofal tiwmor yr ymennydd yn dangos mai dim ond 30 y cant o ymatebwyr a ddywedodd eu bod wedi cael cynnig asesiad anghenion cyfannol, a dim ond 11 y cant o'r ymatebwyr a deimlai fod y cynllun gofal a ddeilliodd o'u hasesiad yn gweithio'n dda. Gyda hyn mewn golwg, Weinidog, pa gamau sy'n cael eu cymryd i sicrhau bod pob claf tiwmor yr ymennydd yng Nghymru yn cael asesiad anghenion cyfannol a chynllun gofal yn deillio o hynny? Ac a wnaiff y Llywodraeth hon ymrwymo i sicrhau bod pob claf tiwmor yr ymennydd yn cael cynnig y math hollbwysig hwn o gymorth fel rhan o'u gofal? Diolch.
English: Thanks very much, Joel. I think, whenever we're dealing with physical issues where people are really confronting very, very difficult situations, then we do have to consider in particular, perhaps, the mental health impact on people trying to deal with those situations, and so, obviously, where possible, a holistic needs assessment should be made. But I am pleased that we do have some real experts in Wales in brain tumours. Cardiff Neuro-oncology Centre was awarded centre of excellence status by the Tessa Jowell Brain Cancer Mission, and I'm really pleased also that £9.4 million has been invested in Cardiff University's brain research imaging centre, CUBRIC.
Welsh: Diolch yn fawr iawn, Joel. Pryd bynnag y byddwn yn ymdrin â materion corfforol lle mae pobl yn wynebu sefyllfaoedd anodd tu hwnt, rwy'n credu bod rhaid inni ystyried yn benodol, efallai, yr effaith ar iechyd meddwl y bobl sy'n ceisio ymdopi â'r sefyllfaoedd hynny, ac felly, yn amlwg, lle bo'n bosibl, dylid gwneud asesiad anghenion cyfannol. Ond rwy'n falch fod gennym arbenigwyr go iawn yng Nghymru ym maes tiwmor yr ymennydd. Dyfarnwyd statws canolfan ragoriaeth i Ganolfan Niwro-oncoleg Caerdydd gan y Tessa Jowell Brain Cancer Mission, ac rwy'n falch iawn hefyd fod £9.4 miliwn wedi'i fuddsoddi yng nghanolfan ymchwil delweddu'r ymennydd Prifysgol Caerdydd.
English: My mother had a brain tumour, which she sadly died from. The GP was treating her for a long period of time, in its early stages, for thyroid problems - having tests done on the thyroid. By the time she went into hospital, it was stage 4. It was only when it spread to other parts of the body that she was referred for a CT scan. I request that GPs are trained to identify the symptoms and then test for brain tumours, and not try and find something simpler.
Welsh: Roedd gan fy mam diwmor ar yr ymennydd, a bu farw o hynny, yn anffodus. Roedd y meddyg teulu'n ei thrin am gyfnod hir, yn y cyfnodau cynnar, ar gyfer problemau thyroid - a chael profion ar y thyroid. Erbyn iddi fynd i'r ysbyty, roedd wedi cyrraedd cam 4. Dim ond pan ledaenodd i rannau eraill o'r corff y cafodd ei chyfeirio am sgan CT. Rwyf am ofyn i feddygon teulu gael eu hyfforddi i adnabod y symptomau a phrofi am diwmorau'r ymennydd, a pheidio â cheisio dod o hyd i rywbeth symlach.
English: Thanks very much, Mike, and I'm sorry to hear about your mother. I think what's clear is we've got to be very careful, because, obviously, GPs see countless numbers of people with headaches or issues with balance or vague symptoms, such as fatigue, so it's very difficult, I think, for them to be absolutely clear. And there is already very well recognised professional guidance in place for GPs from NICE to refer adults with progressive loss of central neurological function for urgent investigation. I'm sure you will be aware that the NHS in Wales is now rolling out rapid diagnostic centres to the whole population, and I'm pleased to say that, actually, that is being used and many, many people are now being referred.
Welsh: Diolch yn fawr iawn, Mike, ac mae'n ddrwg gennyf glywed am eich mam. Credaf mai'r hyn sy'n glir yw bod yn rhaid inni fod yn ofalus iawn, oherwydd, yn amlwg, mae meddygon teulu'n gweld niferoedd dirifedi o bobl sydd â chur pen neu broblemau gyda chydbwysedd neu symptomau amwys, megis blinder, felly mae'n anodd iawn iddynt fod yn gwbl glir. Ac mae canllawiau proffesiynol cydnabyddedig iawn eisoes ar waith gan NICE i feddygon teulu atgyfeirio oedolion sy'n colli gweithrediad niwrolegol canolog yn gynyddol am archwiliad brys. Rwy'n siŵr y byddwch yn ymwybodol fod y GIG yng Nghymru bellach yn cyflwyno canolfannau diagnostig cyflym i'r boblogaeth gyfan, ac rwy'n falch o ddweud fod hynny'n cael ei ddefnyddio a bod llawer o bobl bellach yn cael eu atgyfeirio.
English: Officials are in early discussions with the Football Association of Wales to consider how we can take forward a range of programmes through 'Healthy Weight: Healthy Wales' and our proposed social prescribing framework. These programmes will include a focus on physical and mental health.
Welsh: Mae swyddogion yn cynnal trafodaethau cynnar gyda Chymdeithas Bêl-droed Cymru i ystyried sut y gallwn ddatblygu ystod o raglenni drwy 'Pwysau Iach: Cymru Iach' a'n fframwaith presgripsiynu cymdeithasol arfaethedig. Bydd y rhaglenni hyn yn cynnwys ffocws ar iechyd corfforol a meddyliol.
English: Thank you, Deputy Minister. That's a very encouraging response, because the Football Association of Wales recently shared with the Culture, Welsh Language, Communications, Sport and International Relations Committee - there's no way of saying that quickly, sorry - their submission to the Welsh Government regarding how we can grow football in Wales to improve the health of the nation. Their request was a £10 million investment per annum for a decade. And we know that, in Wales, despite our love for rugby, football is emerging as the No. 1 team sport in terms of public interest and participation, with powerchair and walking football becoming increasingly popular too. There is an opportunity, through the world cup, to inspire people of all ages and backgrounds to become more active and improve public health. You've outlined some of the things, but is there also going to be an active campaign to make sure that we capitalise on this? Thank you.
Welsh: Diolch yn fawr, Ddirprwy Weinidog. Mae hwnnw'n ymateb calonogol iawn, oherwydd yn ddiweddar rhannodd Cymdeithas Bêl-droed Cymru â'r Pwyllgor Diwylliant, Cyfathrebu, y Gymraeg, Chwaraeon a Chysylltiadau Rhyngwladol - nid oes modd dweud hynny'n gyflym, mae'n ddrwg gennyf - eu cyflwyniad i Lywodraeth Cymru ynghylch sut y gallwn dyfu pêl-droed yng Nghymru i wella iechyd y genedl. Roedd eu cais am fuddsoddiad o £10 miliwn y flwyddyn am ddegawd. A gwyddom, yng Nghymru, er gwaethaf ein cariad at rygbi, fod pêl-droed yn dod i'r amlwg fel y gamp tîm fwyaf poblogaidd o ran diddordeb a chyfranogiad y cyhoedd, gyda phêl-droed cadair olwyn drydan a phêl-droed cerdded yn dod yn fwyfwy poblogaidd hefyd. Mae cyfle, drwy gwpan y byd, i ysbrydoli pobl o bob oed a chefndir i ddod yn fwy heini a gwella iechyd y cyhoedd. Rydych wedi amlinellu rhai o'r pethau, ond a fydd ymgyrch weithredol hefyd i sicrhau ein bod yn manteisio ar hyn? Diolch.
English: Minister, I'm sure you'll agree with me that sport is extremely important for our young people right across Wales not just in terms of their physical health, but also their mental health. It's great for people to get out there in the fresh air and experience that. It really opens people up as well - the talking about their problems. You're talking about social prescribing, and actually getting GPs to more socially prescribe to make sure that our young people are accessing that to make sure it does help their mental health. But also, that needs to go into schools as well, to make sure that our schools are educating young people about healthy lifestyles to help their mental health. So, can you tell me what work you've done across Government to understand the impacts of mental health and sport on our young people?
Welsh: Weinidog, rwy'n siŵr y cytunwch â mi fod chwaraeon yn eithriadol o bwysig i'n pobl ifanc ledled Cymru nid yn unig o ran eu hiechyd corfforol, ond hefyd eu hiechyd meddwl. Mae'n wych i bobl fynd allan yn yr awyr iach a phrofi hynny. Mae'n gwneud i bobl fod yn agored hefyd - a siarad am eu problemau. Rydych yn sôn am bresgripsiynu cymdeithasol, a chael meddygon teulu i wneud mwy o bresgripsiynu cymdeithasol i sicrhau bod ein pobl ifanc yn cael mynediad at hynny i sicrhau ei fod yn helpu eu hiechyd meddwl. Ond hefyd, mae angen i hynny fynd i ysgolion hefyd, er mwyn sicrhau bod ein hysgolion yn addysgu pobl ifanc am ffyrdd iach o fyw i helpu eu hiechyd meddwl. Felly, a wnewch chi ddweud wrthyf pa waith a wnaethoch ar draws y Llywodraeth i ddeall effeithiau iechyd meddwl a chwaraeon ar ein pobl ifanc?
English: Thank you very much for that question, James. This is absolutely a cross-Government issue. As you're aware, our 'Healthy Weight: Healthy Wales' plan is a cross-Government plan, with all Ministers making a contribution to what we're trying to do. Clearly, there's a really important role for education, and we are uniquely well placed in Wales with our new curriculum, with our area of learning focused on health and well-being, to really embed that understanding of health in schools so that our young people get the best possible start in life. Also, young people will be a feature of what we're doing through our social prescribing programme. I'm really concerned that that doesn't appear to be just something that is for older people, because we know that it can often be young people who experience the most loneliness.
Welsh: Diolch yn fawr am y cwestiwn hwnnw, James. Mae hwn yn sicr yn fater trawslywodraethol. Fel y gwyddoch, mae ein cynllun 'Pwysau Iach: Cymru Iach' yn gynllun trawslywodraethol, gyda'r holl Weinidogion yn cyfrannu at yr hyn y ceisiwn ei wneud. Yn amlwg, mae yna rôl bwysig iawn i addysg, ac rydym mewn sefyllfa unigryw o dda yng Nghymru gyda'n cwricwlwm newydd, gyda'n maes dysgu sy'n canolbwyntio ar iechyd a llesiant, i ymgorffori'r ddealltwriaeth honno o iechyd mewn ysgolion fel bod ein pobl ifanc yn cael y dechrau gorau posibl mewn bywyd. Hefyd, bydd pobl ifanc yn nodwedd o'r hyn a wnawn drwy ein rhaglen presgripsiynu cymdeithasol. Rwy'n awyddus iawn i sicrhau nad yw hynny i'w weld yn rhywbeth sydd ar gyfer pobl hŷn yn unig, oherwydd gwyddom mai pobl ifanc yn aml iawn sy'n profi unigrwydd fwyaf.
English: Access to high-quality play opportunities is critical for the social, emotional and physical development of all children. I am proud that Wales was the first country to legislate, guaranteeing children's right to play by ensuring local authorities secure sufficient opportunities, via the play sufficiency duty.
Welsh: Mae mynediad at gyfleoedd chwarae o ansawdd uchel yn hanfodol ar gyfer datblygiad cymdeithasol, emosiynol a chorfforol pob plentyn. Rwy'n falch mai Cymru oedd y wlad gyntaf i ddeddfu, gan warantu hawl plant i chwarae drwy sicrhau bod awdurdodau lleol yn sicrhau digon o gyfleoedd, drwy'r ddyletswydd digonolrwydd cyfleoedd chwarae.
English: Thank you, Minister, for that response. I absolutely recognise what you said about play being absolutely important for physical and mental health. I welcome initiatives such as the Summer of Fun scheme to extend play. However, I've had recent discussions with Scope, and they suggest that equipment is often inaccessible to disabled children and many playgrounds are not designed with full accessibility in mind. In fact, half of the parents with disabled children say there is some accessibility problem with their local playground. Obviously, that means that many young people can't feel included in their play. Wales has a clear commitment to be a play-friendly country, and so dedicated investment is needed to support this ambition. Deputy Minister, I wonder what conversations you've had with your Cabinet colleagues about the steps that can be taken to improve accessibility to playgrounds. And will you consider calls to create an inclusive playground fund to co-produce new and improve existing playgrounds with disabled children and their families? Thank you.
Welsh: Diolch am yr ymateb hwnnw, Weinidog. Rwy'n cydnabod yn llwyr yr hyn a ddywedoch chi, sef bod chwarae'n bwysig iawn i iechyd corfforol a meddyliol. Rwy'n croesawu mentrau fel y cynllun Haf o Hwyl i ymestyn chwarae. Fodd bynnag, rwyf wedi cael trafodaethau diweddar gyda Scope, ac maent yn awgrymu bod offer yn aml yn anhygyrch i blant anabl a bod llawer o feysydd chwarae heb gael eu cynllunio gyda hygyrchedd llawn mewn golwg. Mewn gwirionedd, mae hanner y rhieni sydd â phlant anabl yn dweud bod rhyw broblem gyda hygyrchedd yn eu maes chwarae lleol. Yn amlwg, mae hynny'n golygu bod llawer o bobl ifanc yn teimlo nad ydynt wedi cael eu cynnwys wrth chwarae. Mae gan Gymru ymrwymiad clir i fod yn wlad sy'n creu cyfleoedd i chwarae, ac felly mae angen buddsoddiad penodol i gefnogi'r uchelgais hwn. Ddirprwy Weinidog, tybed pa sgyrsiau a gawsoch gyda'ch cyd-Weinidogion yn y Cabinet am y camau y gellir eu cymryd i wella hygyrchedd mewn meysydd chwarae. Ac a wnewch chi ystyried galwadau i greu cronfa ar gyfer meysydd chwarae cynhwysol i gydgynhyrchu meysydd chwarae newydd a gwella'r rhai presennol gyda phlant anabl a'u teuluoedd? Diolch.
English: Deputy Minister, when you and I have discussed inclusive play previously, we've agreed that key to improving access to these opportunities is making sure that information is easily available so that parents, guardians, children, young people and families know what inclusive play is available and where it's located. How will Welsh Government work with partners to ensure this sort of information is shared - something that's important all through the year, but especially as we look to the summer holidays?
Welsh: Ddirprwy Weinidog, pan fûm yn trafod chwarae cynhwysol gyda chi yn y gorffennol, roeddem yn cytuno mai'r hyn sy'n allweddol i wella mynediad i'r cyfleoedd hyn yw sicrhau bod gwybodaeth ar gael yn hawdd fel bod rhieni, gwarcheidwaid, plant, pobl ifanc a theuluoedd yn gwybod pa chwarae cynhwysol sydd ar gael a ble mae wedi'i leoli. Sut y bydd Llywodraeth Cymru yn gweithio gyda phartneriaid i sicrhau bod gwybodaeth o'r fath yn cael ei rhannu - rhywbeth sy'n bwysig drwy gydol y flwyddyn, ond yn enwedig wrth inni edrych ar wyliau'r haf?
English: Thank you very much, Vikki Howells, for that question. I know how diligently you've pursued this issue. A local authority family information service can inform parents and carers about the availability and location of play opportunities, and they'll be also able to signpost parents and carers to the play team, who are best placed to assess their needs. Many local councils in Wales have information about accessibility on the play sections of their websites, and we encourage local authorities to do this as part of their play sufficiency actions. Local authorities should be working collaboratively across a range of key policy areas, and this will enable local authorities to collaborate to support the needs of local people. So, local authorities have a duty to do this, and they have a duty to inform the public. I'm aware that the Member would like there to be something much more specific, so I'll tell her that we will discuss with local authorities about any more that can be done so that people know where the facilities are available, particularly with the Summer of Fun coming up now.
Welsh: Diolch yn fawr iawn am y cwestiwn hwnnw, Vikki Howells. Gwn pa mor ddiwyd yr ydych wedi mynd ar drywydd y mater hwn. Gall gwasanaeth gwybodaeth i deuluoedd awdurdod lleol roi gwybod i rieni a gofalwyr am argaeledd a lleoliad cyfleoedd chwarae, a byddant hefyd yn gallu cyfeirio rhieni a gofalwyr at y tîm chwarae, sydd yn y sefyllfa orau i asesu eu hanghenion. Mae gan lawer o gynghorau lleol yng Nghymru wybodaeth am hygyrchedd ar adrannau chwarae eu gwefannau, ac rydym yn annog awdurdodau lleol i wneud hyn fel rhan o'u gweithredoedd digonolrwydd cyfleoedd chwarae. Dylai awdurdodau lleol fod yn cydweithio ar draws ystod o feysydd polisi allweddol, a bydd hyn yn galluogi awdurdodau lleol i gydweithio i gefnogi anghenion pobl leol. Felly, mae dyletswydd ar awdurdodau lleol i wneud hyn, ac mae ganddynt ddyletswydd i hysbysu'r cyhoedd. Rwy'n ymwybodol y byddai'r Aelod yn hoffi cael rhywbeth llawer mwy penodol, felly fe ddywedaf wrthi y byddwn yn trafod gydag awdurdodau lleol unrhyw beth arall y gellir ei wneud fel bod pobl yn gwybod ble mae'r cyfleusterau ar gael, yn enwedig gyda'r Haf o Hwyl sydd ar y gweill yn awr.
English: The all-Wales nutrition and catering standards were published in 2011 to ensure hospital food meets the diverse needs of the hospital population. Work is currently under way to review those standards to ensure they continue to meet the nutritional and dietary requirements of hospital patients in Wales.
Welsh: Cyhoeddwyd safonau maeth ac arlwyo Cymru gyfan yn 2011 i sicrhau bod bwyd mewn ysbytai yn diwallu anghenion amrywiol poblogaeth yr ysbytai. Mae gwaith ar y gweill ar hyn o bryd i adolygu'r safonau hynny er mwyn sicrhau eu bod yn parhau i fodloni gofynion maethol a deietegol cleifion ysbytai yng Nghymru.
