English: Minister, the infection rate known as 'R' is below 1 because of the lockdown and vigorous social distancing. It seems to me that the only way it remains below 1 - and in Germany we're already seeing that is a formidable challenge - is if we can test and trace extensively. But we're still quite vague on what that system is going to look like. I know in England they're aiming to recruit 18,000 contact tracers; that would give us roughly 900 in Wales, if we needed a similar capacity. But lots of questions about what technology will be used and where these people will be recruited. Will they be more local authority based or health authority based? What's it going to look like? And how are we going to deal with the particular challenges of high-density housing, tower blocks and that, where lots of people don't know their neighbours, and yet the knowledge and passing the information on of who's been in contact with whom and how is really very important? Without that picture, it seems to me we can't move significantly out of lockdown. And can you give us a bit more detail on what that picture is going to look like in Wales?
Welsh: Gweinidog, mae'r gyfradd heintio sy'n cael ei hadnabod fel 'R' yn is nag 1 oherwydd y cyfyngiadau symud a'r rheolau llym o ran cadw pellter cymdeithasol. Mae'n ymddangos i mi mai'r unig ffordd y mae'n aros yn is nag 1 - ac yn yr Almaen rydym ni eisoes yn gweld hynny'n her enfawr - yw os gallwn ni brofi ac olrhain yn helaeth. Ond rydym ni'n dal yn eithaf amwys ynglŷn â sut beth fydd y system honno. Rwy'n gwybod yn Lloegr eu bod yn bwriadu recriwtio 18,000 o olrheinwyr cyswllt; byddai hynny'n rhoi tua 900 i ni yng Nghymru, pe bai arnom ni angen capasiti tebyg. Ond mae llawer o gwestiynau am ba dechnoleg fydd yn cael ei defnyddio a lle caiff y bobl hyn eu recriwtio. A gânt eu lleoli mewn awdurdodau lleol neu mewn awdurdodau iechyd? Sut beth fydd hynny? A sut ydym ni'n mynd i ymdrin â heriau penodol tai dwysedd uchel, tyrrau uchel o fflatiau ac ati, lle nad yw llawer o bobl yn adnabod eu cymdogion, ac eto mae'r wybodaeth a throsglwyddo'r wybodaeth am bwy fu mewn cysylltiad â phwy a sut, yn bwysig iawn mewn gwirionedd? Heb y darlun hwnnw, mae'n ymddangos i mi na allwn ni godi'r cyfyngiadau symud yn sylweddol. Ac a wnewch chi roi ychydig mwy o fanylion inni ynghylch beth fydd y sefyllfa debygol yng Nghymru?
English: I'm glad to hear, Minister, that you're advocating better working conditions and salaries for nurses and care workers, because that strikes a very different tone to the one that you struck in answer to my questioning just some months ago, when I was raising concerns about proposed changes within Betsi Cadwaladr to nursing rotas in north Wales, which would have been, of course, to the detriment of the working conditions of nurses there. So, are you now saying that you will be backing the nurses and the unions, and not telling me that it's a matter for the board, and not a matter for Welsh Government?
Welsh: Rwy'n falch o glywed, Gweinidog, eich bod yn siarad o blaid amodau gwaith a chyflogau gwell i nyrsys a gweithwyr gofal, gan fod hynny'n gywair gwahanol iawn i'r un yr oeddech yn siarad ynddo wrth ateb fy nghwestiynau ychydig fisoedd yn ôl, pan oeddwn yn codi pryderon am newidiadau arfaethedig ym mwrdd iechyd Betsi Cadwaladr i rotâu nyrsio yn y gogledd, a fuasai, wrth gwrs, ar draul amodau gwaith nyrsys y fan yna. Felly, a ydych chi'n dweud nawr y byddwch yn cefnogi'r nyrsys a'r undebau, a ddim yn dweud wrthyf mai mater i'r bwrdd ydyw, ac nid mater i Lywodraeth Cymru?
English: Can I press you again, Minister, on the number of testing centres? Yesterday, The Daily Telegraph reported figures from the Department of Health and Social Care that said there's only one testing venue in Wales. I've been in touch with the NHS Wales Informatics Service and they say that there are 21 testing centres. Can you tell me precisely how many testing venues there are that are up and running at the moment? Can you also give some assurance about the NHS pneumococcal vaccine this winter and that there will be widespread availability, as it is helpful, I believe, for treating secondary respiratory infections? Finally, on fertility clinics, when can we expect them to reopen? Will Wales be doing something different to England and can those receiving treatment at least have the option of pursuing treatment in private clinics, provided it's safe to do so?
Welsh: A gaf i bwyso arnoch chi eto, Gweinidog, ynghylch nifer y canolfannau profi? Ddoe, crybwyllodd y Daily Telegraph ffigurau gan yr Adran Iechyd a Gofal Cymdeithasol a ddywedodd mai dim ond un lleoliad profi sydd yng Nghymru. Rwyf wedi bod mewn cysylltiad â Gwasanaeth Gwybodeg GIG Cymru ac maen nhw yn dweud bod 21 o ganolfannau profi. A wnewch chi ddweud wrthyf faint yn union o ganolfannau profi sydd ar waith ar hyn o bryd? A allwch chi hefyd roi rhywfaint o sicrwydd ynghylch y brechlyn niwmococol yn y GIG y gaeaf hwn ac y bydd ar gael yn eang, gan ei fod o gymorth, fe gredaf, ar gyfer trin heintiadau anadlol eilaidd? Yn olaf, o ran clinigau ffrwythlondeb, pryd y gallwn ni ddisgwyl iddyn nhw ailagor? A fydd Cymru'n gwneud rhywbeth gwahanol i Loegr ac a all y rhai sy'n cael triniaeth o leiaf gael y dewis o fynd ar drywydd triniaeth mewn clinigau preifat, ar yr amod ei bod hi'n ddiogel gwneud hynny?
English: Minister, I'd just like to pick up on the question that David Melding asked you about testing and how we exit our lockdown. I understand that you haven't yet formulated all your plans and you need to work on them, and you want to put more meat on the bones, but I am concerned in respect of surveillance testing. You know the Welsh Conservatives have pushed for having a very clear departmental team in charge of making testing happen today, which we know it's not: 2,100 hospital tests can be done every day, and we're doing about 700, and it's nowhere near the ambition of 9,000. And we also want to make sure that that team has a really good idea moving forward of how we look at the whole surveillance issue. Now, during last week's parliamentary Science and Technology Select Committee meeting at Westminster, the chief medical officer was asked about the plan for testing in Wales, and he basically intimated that there's a technical advisory group that takes details from SAGE and flexes them for a Welsh context. I just wondered if you could give us a little bit more detail on that. Who are these people? Are they from a science background, an NHS background? Are they actually modellers? What data, given that our data is not great in some areas, are they using to flex it for that Welsh context?
Welsh: Gweinidog, hoffwn gyfeirio at y cwestiwn a ofynnodd David Melding i chi am brofi a sut yr ydym yn codi'r cyfyngiadau symud. Deallaf nad ydych chi wedi llunio'ch cynlluniau i gyd eto a bod angen i chi weithio arnynt, a'ch bod eisiau rhoi mwy o gig ar yr esgyrn, ond rwyf yn bryderus ynghylch profion gwyliadwriaeth. Gwyddoch fod y Ceidwadwyr Cymreig wedi pwyso am gael tîm adrannol clir iawn yn gyfrifol am sicrhau bod profion yn digwydd heddiw, a gwyddom nad ydynt: gellir profi 2,100 mewn ysbytai bob dydd, ac rydym yn profi tua 700, ac nid yw'n agos at yr uchelgais o 9,000. Ac rydym ni hefyd eisiau gwneud yn siŵr bod gan y tîm hwnnw syniad da iawn wrth symud ymlaen o sut yr ydym yn ystyried yr holl fater o wyliadwriaeth. Nawr, yn ystod cyfarfod y Pwyllgor Dethol ar Wyddoniaeth a Thechnoleg yn San Steffan yr wythnos diwethaf, gofynnwyd i'r prif swyddog meddygol am y cynllun ar gyfer profi yng Nghymru, a dywedodd yn y bôn fod grŵp cynghori technegol yn cael manylion gan y grŵp cynghori gwyddonol ar argyfyngau ac yn eu haddasu i'r cyd-destun Cymreig. Tybed a allech chi roi ychydig mwy o fanylion inni am hynny? Pwy yw'r bobl hyn? Oes ganddyn nhw gefndir gwyddonol, cefndir yn y GIG? A ydyn nhw mewn gwirionedd yn fodelwyr? Pa ddata, o ystyried nad yw ein data yn wych mewn rhai meysydd, maen nhw'n eu defnyddio i'w haddasu ar gyfer y cyd-destun Cymreig hwnnw?
English: This crisis has brought to the fore a fundamental problem at Ysbyty Gwynedd, Bangor in my constituency. For some weeks, I've been aware that a problem has arisen with the capacity of oxygen flow in Ysbyty Gwynedd and that, in turn, could restrict the ability of the hospital to deal with the COVID crisis. Resolving this is being given priority by the British Oxygen Company, and I'm grateful for the efforts made by local managers to ensure that that's the case. However, would you agree with me that we should have invested in this work over a period of time? It takes a crisis for this to happen. And do you agree that this is a clear sign that Ysbyty Gwynedd, Bangor is being downgraded quietly and through the back door?
Welsh: Mae'r argyfwng yma wedi dod â phroblem sylfaenol i'r amlwg yn Ysbyty Gwynedd, Bangor yn fy etholaeth i. Ers rhai wythnosau, dwi wedi bod yn ymwybodol bod problem wedi codi efo capasiti llif yr ocsigen yn Ysbyty Gwynedd, ac mi allai hynny, yn ei dro, gyfyngu ar allu'r ysbyty i ymdopi â'r argyfwng COVID. Mae datrys hyn yn cael blaenoriaeth gan y British Oxygen Company, a dwi'n ddiolchgar am ymdrechion y rheolwyr lleol i sicrhau hynny. Ond, a wnewch chi gytuno â fi y dylid fod wedi buddsoddi yn y gwaith yma ers tro? Mae hi'n cymryd argyfwng i hyn ddigwydd. Ac a ydych chi'n cytuno bod hyn yn arwydd clir bod Ysbyty Gwynedd, Bangor yn cael ei israddio yn dawel fach a thrwy'r drws cefn?
English: [ Inaudible.] - being released daily. What can you do as Minister to make sure that last week's reported failure to keep north Wales's data accurate is properly rectified and not repeated?
Welsh: [ Anhyglyw.] - yn cael eu rhyddhau bob dydd. Beth allwch chi ei wneud fel Gweinidog i sicrhau y caiff y methiant yr adroddwyd amdano yr wythnos diwethaf i gadw data Gogledd Cymru yn gywir ei gywiro'n briodol ac na chaiff ei ailadrodd?
English: Well, as I said, this has been dealt with in some detail by the First Minister, but I hope that the report that I published yesterday provides Jack Sargeant with the sort of certainty that he's understandably looking for. I think it is important to reflect that this wasn't simply a matter of people saying that it was the north Wales health board that got it all wrong. That isn't what happened. The issue that was identified came about when Public Health Wales published health board area data, and, at that point in time, Betsi Cadwaladr got in touch with Public Health Wales because they recognised that there was a problem with the figures that were being published. We now have a system where the recommendations of the report are being implemented, everyone is using the same system, and there's weekly contact between Public Health Wales and the health boards to provide the reassurance that all of us want, and that certainly includes Ministers as well as local Members in the different health board areas, because I want data that I can rely upon in the choices that I make for the whole country.
Welsh: Wel, fel y dywedais, mae'r Prif Weinidog wedi ymdrin â hyn yn fanwl, ond gobeithio bod yr adroddiad a gyhoeddais ddoe yn rhoi'r math o sicrwydd y mae Jack Sargeant, yn ddealladwy, yn chwilio amdano. Rwy'n credu ei bod yn bwysig ystyried nad oedd hyn yn fater o bobl yn dweud mai Bwrdd Iechyd Gogledd Cymru oedd yn gyfrifol am wneud traed moch o bethau. Nid dyna a ddigwyddodd. Daeth y mater a nodwyd i'r amlwg pan gyhoeddodd Iechyd Cyhoeddus Cymru ddata ardal y Bwrdd Iechyd, a, bryd hynny, cysylltodd Betsi Cadwaladr ag Iechyd Cyhoeddus Cymru am eu bod yn cydnabod bod problem o ran y ffigurau a oedd yn cael eu cyhoeddi. Bellach, mae gennym ni system lle mae argymhellion yr adroddiad yn cael eu gweithredu, mae pawb yn defnyddio'r un system, a cheir cyswllt wythnosol rhwng Iechyd Cyhoeddus Cymru a'r byrddau iechyd i roi'r sicrwydd y mae pob un ohonom yn dymuno ei gael, ac mae hynny'n sicr yn cynnwys Gweinidogion yn ogystal ag Aelodau lleol yn ardaloedd y byrddau iechyd gwahanol, oherwydd mae arnaf eisiau data y gallaf ddibynnu arno wrth imi wneud dewisiadau ar gyfer y wlad gyfan.
English: Minister, I put a question to you in writing, and the response you gave me was simply, 'I will write to you and a copy of the letter will be placed on the internet.' That was the answer there. I raise that point with you. Secondly, I'd like to ask a question on behalf of Colin Brain and many others in the same situation in my region, because, in light of the statement made by you about not testing people without symptoms in care homes, he simply asks that, if his mother or others in the care home died due to a lack, in part, of testing, will you, the health Minister, take full responsibility for that and everything that that entails?
Welsh: Gweinidog, gofynnais gwestiwn ysgrifenedig i chi, a'ch ymateb yn syml oedd, 'Byddaf yn ysgrifennu atoch a bydd copi o'r llythyr yn cael ei roi ar y rhyngrwyd.' Dyna oedd yr ateb. Codaf y pwynt hwnnw gyda chi. Yn ail, hoffwn ofyn cwestiwn ar ran Colin Brain a llawer o rai eraill yn yr un sefyllfa yn fy rhanbarth i, oherwydd, yng ngoleuni'r datganiad a wnaethpwyd gennych chi am beidio â phrofi pobl heb symptomau mewn cartrefi gofal, mae'n gofyn, yn syml, pe bai ei fam neu bobl eraill yn y cartref gofal yn marw oherwydd diffyg profion, yn rhannol, a wnewch chi, y Gweinidog Iechyd, gymryd cyfrifoldeb llawn am hynny ac am bopeth y mae hynny'n ei olygu?
English: Minister, you'll be aware that the University of South Wales, based in Treforest, has been at the forefront of research about new ways of testing for coronavirus and that they produced a potentially game-changing rapid response test. It's part of an upsurge in local enterprise and innovation to produce personal protective equipment, and to develop new ways of testing that we've seen in Wales and which the First Minister commented on earlier. Now, I understand that the trials for Cwm Taf Morgannwg health board have gone well, and that the University of South Wales is now seeking support from Welsh Government for this important work. I wonder if you could update me on what the current situation is, whether there have been discussions between yourself and the University of South Wales, and on any progress that's been made in advancing this important project.
Welsh: Gweinidog, byddwch yn ymwybodol y bu Prifysgol De Cymru, sydd wedi'i lleoli yn Nhrefforest, ar flaen y gad o ran ymchwilio i ffyrdd newydd o brofi ar gyfer y coronafeirws a'u bod wedi cynhyrchu prawf ymateb cyflym a allai o bosib newid pethau'n chwyldroadol. Mae'n rhan o gynnydd mewn menter ac arloesedd lleol i gynhyrchu cyfarpar diogelu personol, ac i ddatblygu ffyrdd newydd o brofi yr ydym wedi eu gweld yng Nghymru y gwnaeth y Prif Weinidog eu crybwyll yn gynharach. Nawr, rwy'n deall bod yr arbrofion ar gyfer Bwrdd Iechyd Cwm Taf Morgannwg wedi mynd yn dda, a bod Prifysgol De Cymru bellach yn ceisio cymorth gan Lywodraeth Cymru ar gyfer y gwaith pwysig hwn. Tybed a wnewch chi roi'r wybodaeth ddiweddaraf imi am y sefyllfa bresennol, pa un a fu trafodaethau rhyngoch chi a Phrifysgol De Cymru, ac am unrhyw gynnydd a wnaed wrth hyrwyddo'r prosiect pwysig hwn.
English: I thank the Member for the question. This is an important and positive development in our growing evidence and research base about what we're able to do. The test that the University of South Wales have been involved in developing provides a rapid test result, and so we're looking to roll that out. It could be very helpful in both point-of-care testing but also home testing as well, and I'm happy to confirm that we have approved funding from our COVID-19 support mechanisms to allow that to carry on and carry forward to the next stage. And I'll continue to take an interest in the results of that. We're also doing some work with a business to progress the technology around this as well. So, those offers, I understand, have gone out and they'll be aware that that support is being provided, and the funding support should lead us to a position where we understand if this is a technology to pursue and then to roll that out to provide the sort of rapid testing that will really change our ability to implement a different sort of testing regime and provide people with some real certainty in either their work places or, indeed, their homes.
Welsh: Diolch i'r Aelod am y cwestiwn. Mae hwn yn ddatblygiad pwysig a chadarnhaol yn ein tystiolaeth gynyddol a'n sail ymchwil ynghylch yr hyn y gallwn ei wneud. Mae'r prawf y mae Prifysgol De Cymru wedi bod yn rhan o'r gwaith o'i ddatblygu yn darparu canlyniad prawf cyflym, ac felly rydym yn bwriadu cyflwyno hwn. Gallai fod yn ddefnyddiol iawn yn y man lle rhoddir gofal, a hefyd wrth brofi gartref, ac rwy'n falch o gadarnhau ein bod wedi cymeradwyo cyllid o'n systemau cymorth COVID-19 i alluogi hynny i barhau a symud ymlaen i'r cam nesaf. A byddaf yn parhau i gymryd diddordeb yng nghanlyniadau hynny. Rydym hefyd yn gwneud rhywfaint o waith gyda busnes i ddatblygu'r dechnoleg sy'n ymwneud â hyn hefyd. Felly, mae'r cynigion hynny, yr wyf yn deall, wedi eu cyflwyno a byddant yn ymwybodol bod y cymorth hwnnw'n cael ei ddarparu, a dylai'r cymorth ariannol ein harwain at sefyllfa pryd y byddwn yn deall a yw hon yn dechnoleg i'w datblygu ac yna ei chyflwyno i ddarparu'r math o brofion cyflym a fydd yn newid ein gallu i weithredu math gwahanol o gyfundrefn brofi yn sylweddol a rhoi sicrwydd gwirioneddol i bobl un ai yn eu gweithleoedd neu yn wir, yn eu cartrefi.
English: Minister, ONS data suggests that COVID-19 deaths in care homes are substantially higher than is being recorded, and I've looked at the Aneurin Bevan data and it shows that there's an increase in deaths of non-COVID deaths in care homes this year. Now, that isn't what we'd expect moving from the winter into spring. Surely, the only explanation that's reasonable for that is that COVID-19 deaths are not being recorded as that on death certificates. Now, additionally to this, I've spoken to a number of care home managers who have told me that a lack of testing is leading to avoidable outbreaks in care homes, and this at a time when tests will be made available to residents and staff at care homes in England but not in Wales. Looking at all of this, Minister, are you ashamed that you said this morning that providing tests to residents and staff of care homes would not be the best use of resources?
Welsh: Gweinidog, mae data SYG yn awgrymu bod nifer y marwolaethau yn sgil COVID-19 mewn cartrefi gofal gryn dipyn yn uwch na'r hyn a gofnodir, ac rwyf wedi edrych ar ddata Aneurin Bevan ac mae'n dangos bod cynnydd yn nifer y marwolaethau o ganlyniad i farwolaethau nad ydynt yn farwolaethau COVID-19 mewn cartrefi gofal eleni. Nawr, nid dyna'r hyn y byddem yn ei ddisgwyl wrth symud o'r gaeaf i'r gwanwyn. Mae'n rhaid mai'r unig esboniad rhesymol am hynny yw na chofnodir pob marwolaeth fel rhai COVID-19 ar dystysgrifau marwolaeth. Nawr, yn ogystal â hyn, rwyf wedi siarad â nifer o reolwyr cartrefi gofal sydd wedi dweud wrthyf fod diffyg profion yn arwain at achosion y gellir eu hosgoi mewn cartrefi gofal, a hyn ar adeg pan fydd profion ar gael i breswylwyr a staff mewn cartrefi gofal yn Lloegr ond nid yng Nghymru. Wrth edrych ar hyn i gyd, Gweinidog, a oes gennych gywilydd eich bod wedi dweud y bore yma nad darparu profion i breswylwyr a staff cartrefi gofal fyddai'r ffordd orau o ddefnyddio adnoddau?
English: Thank you, Minister. That brings us to the end of that statement and I will suspend proceedings now for 10 minutes.
Welsh: Diolch yn fawr, Gweinidog. Daw hynny â ni at ddiwedd y datganiad a nawr byddaf yn atal y trafodion dros dro am 10 munud.
English: So we'll reconvene Plenary - virtual Plenary. And we'll now move on to the next statement on our agenda, which is a statement by the Business Minister - sorry, by the Minister for Education, on coronavirus. So over to the Minister, Kirsty Williams.
Welsh: Felly fe wnawn ni ailgynnull y cyfarfod llawn - y rhith-gyfarfod llawn. Ac fe symudwn ymlaen nawr at y datganiad nesaf ar ein hagenda, sef datganiad gan y Gweinidog Busnes - mae'n ddrwg gennyf, gan y Gweinidog Addysg, ynglŷn â'r coronafeirws. Felly draw at y Gweinidog, Kirsty Williams.
English: Thank you. If we were in the Chamber, I would have been staring very hard at the Minister then. We are trying to have shorter answers to questions, and I was staring hard at you, but, of course, you can't see me doing that. So, can we just think about shorter answers, please? Siân Gwenllian.
Welsh: Diolch. Petaem ni yn y Siambr, fe fyddwn wedi bod yn syllu'n galed iawn ar y Gweinidog. Rydym yn ceisio cael atebion byrrach i gwestiynau, ac roeddwn yn syllu'n galed arnoch chi, ond, wrth gwrs, ni allwch fy ngweld yn gwneud hynny. Felly, gallwn ni feddwl am atebion byrrach, os gwelwch yn dda? Siân Gwenllian.
English: Thank you very much for providing clarity on that final point. May I ask you about the health condition arising in some children as a rare response, but a very dangerous response, that is suspected to be related to coronavirus? Can you confirm whether there have been any cases in Wales, and, if there have been, or if any do emerge, what would the implications of that be on your plans to reopen schools? Just a few questions to close about testing educational workers: yesterday, it emerged that only 15 teachers across Wales have been tested for COVID. Now, education workers are supposed to have been included in the 'critical employment' category and should be prioritised for testing, therefore. But do you agree with me that the public has lost faith in the Government's testing strategy? And, as you plan for this next phase, how will you ensure that teachers and educational professionals will be tested, and will you guarantee that every education worker and worker in childcare who shows symptoms of COVID will be able to access a test?
Welsh: Diolch yn fawr iawn am yr eglurder yna ar y pwynt olaf. Gaf i eich holi chi am y cyflwr iechyd sy'n codi ymhlith rhai plant o ganlyniad i adwaith prin, ond hynod beryglus, sy'n cael ei amau o fod yn gysylltiedig â coronafeirws? Allwch chi gadarnhau a oes yna unrhyw achosion o'r cyflwr yng Nghymru, ac, os oes yna, neu os daw rhai i'r amlwg, beth fyddai goblygiadau hynny ar eich cynlluniau i ailagor ysgolion? Jest ychydig o gwestiynau i gloi am brofi gweithwyr addysg: ddoe, fe ddaeth hi i'r amlwg mai dim ond 15 o athrawon ar draws Cymru sydd wedi cael profion COVID. Rŵan, mae gweithwyr addysg i fod yn cael eu cynnwys o fewn y categori 'gweithwyr critigol' ac felly i fod i gael eu blaenoriaethu ar gyfer profion. Ond ydych chi'n cytuno efo fi bod y cyhoedd wedi colli ffydd yn strategaeth profi y Llywodraeth, ac, wrth ichi gynllunio ymlaen ar gyfer y cyfnod nesaf, sut ydych chi am sicrhau y bydd athrawon a gweithwyr addysg yn cael profion, ac a wnewch chi warantu y bydd pob gweithiwr addysg a gofal plant sy'n dangos symptomau COVID yn gallu cael prawf?
