English: Thank you, Heledd, for those very important points, and I absolutely agree with her that there are inequalities in Wales that we have to address. And it was very touching to hear your comments about your son listening to the television, and a lot of people have said that to me about the misery that is coming over, and when you think of what's happening to the children, it's just overwhelming, really. So, I absolutely understand how her son needed to put the television off, and I think it's very important that we remember we're talking about the children in Wales here who are in a much better position than many children throughout the world, particularly at this present time. It's absolutely right that the pandemic has been very hard for children, and we know that children have suffered from the isolation of having long periods of not being in touch with their friends, and that we've had to make efforts to reintroduce school, almost, to them. And so it's been a very difficult time, so I absolutely acknowledge everything that she says. This has been exacerbated by the cost-of-living crisis, again, which the Government is doing all it can to tackle, led by the Minister for Social Justice in terms of looking for ways that we can help alleviate some of the very distressing situations that arise with people with not enough money to have food. Again, you mentioned the fuel crisis, and, again, that is something that we are trying to tackle in terms of the money, the grant that the Minister for Social Justice has been able to arrange. But it is absolutely crucial, as the Member says, that we identify those children who are most at risk, and that's why I think it is so important that we have got our early years service, that we've got places like Flying Start that are aimed and are placed at the moment in the most deprived areas, where we will be able to identify where children are particularly at risk. And also, through the co-operation agreement, we are planning to extend Flying Start to two-year-olds throughout Wales, and that again will give us the opportunity that we will be able to identify those children, because we need the eyes and ears on the ground in order to be able to do that. And, of course, the housing issue is a huge issue, and we are committed to building more houses that are available at a fair rent, and also for tackling the long-standing issues of houses that have been built without any consideration to the climate change that is there and that need retrofitting. So, we have an ambitious programme for that. And then, what are we doing about the children who are suffering from mental health problems as a result of everything that's happened? I accept that there is a waiting list for CAMHS. We are trying to give more help lower down so that children don't reach the stage where they need the CAMHS service. For example, we put counselling services in schools, and the Deputy Minister for Mental Health and Well-being is trying to ensure that the treatment opportunities are available much earlier in the system. So, we want to reach children before they reach the need for CAMHS. I think that is where we've got to put the effort in. But finally, I suppose, really, when we've had this exchange, it sounds very gloomy, the situation throughout the world. Everything that's happening does seem gloomy at the moment, so I'd really like to respond as well to say that I think there are lots of good things happening as well, and we are moving ahead with lots of policies where we're working together to ensure that children, with all these awful things happening, can have the best lives that they can, and that they can enjoy themselves and have the sort of childhood that we want them to have.
Welsh: Diolch, Heledd, am y pwyntiau pwysig iawn hyn, ac rwyf i'n cytuno yn llwyr â hi ynglŷn ag anghydraddoldebau yng Nghymru y mae'n rhaid i ni fynd i'r afael â nhw. Rhywbeth teimladwy iawn oedd clywed eich sylwadau chi am eich mab yn gwrando ar y teledu, ac mae llawer o bobl wedi dweud hynny wrthyf innau am y dioddefaint sy'n cael ei gyfleu, a phan feddyliwch chi am yr hyn sy'n digwydd i'r plant, mae hynny'n llorio rhywun, mewn gwirionedd. Felly, rwy'n deall yn iawn pam roedd ei mab hi'n gofyn am ddiffodd y teledu, ac rwy'n credu ei bod hi'n bwysig iawn ein bod ni'n cofio mai sôn am blant yng Nghymru yr ydym ni yn hyn o beth ac maen nhw mewn sefyllfa lawer gwell na sefyllfa llawer o blant ledled y byd, yn enwedig ar hyn o bryd. Mae hi'n gwbl gywir bod y pandemig wedi bod yn anodd iawn i blant, ac fe wyddom ni fod plant wedi dioddef o unigedd cyfnodau hir o beidio â bod mewn cysylltiad â'u ffrindiau, a'n bod ni wedi gorfod ymdrechu i'w cyflwyno nhw o'r newydd, bron iawn, i'r ysgol. Ac felly mae hwn wedi bod yn gyfnod anodd iawn, ac rwy'n cydnabod popeth a ddywedodd hi. Fe waethygwyd hynny gan yr argyfwng costau byw, unwaith eto, y mae'r Llywodraeth yn gwneud popeth yn ei allu i fynd i'r afael ag ef, dan arweiniad y Gweinidog Cyfiawnder Cymdeithasol o ran ymchwilio i ffyrdd o helpu i leddfu rhai o'r sefyllfaoedd pryderus iawn sy'n codi gyda phobl sydd heb ddigon o arian i brynu bwyd. Unwaith eto, roeddech chi'n sôn am yr argyfwng tanwydd, ac, unwaith eto, mae hwnnw'n rhywbeth yr ydym ni'n ceisio mynd i'r afael ag ef o ran arian, y grant y mae'r Gweinidog Cyfiawnder Cymdeithasol wedi llwyddo i'w drefnu. Ond mae hi'n gwbl hanfodol, fel dywed yr Aelod, ein bod ni'n nodi'r plant hynny sydd yn y perygl mwyaf, a dyna pam rwyf i o'r farn ei bod hi mor bwysig ein bod ni wedi bod â'n gwasanaeth blynyddoedd cynnar, a bod gennym ni leoedd fel Dechrau'n Deg a anelir ac a ddarperir yn yr ardaloedd mwyaf difreintiedig ar hyn o bryd, lle byddwn ni'n gallu nodi lle mae'r plant sydd mewn perygl arbennig. A hefyd, drwy'r cytundeb cydweithredu, rydym ni'n bwriadu ymestyn Dechrau'n Deg i blant dwy flwydd oed ledled Cymru, ac fe fydd hynny eto'n rhoi cyfle i ni allu darganfod pwy yw'r plant hynny, oherwydd mae angen y llygaid a'r clustiau ar lawr gwlad arnom ni i allu gwneud felly. Ac, wrth gwrs, mae mater tai yn fater enfawr, ac rydym ni wedi ymrwymo i adeiladu mwy o dai i fod ar gael am rent teg, a hefyd ar gyfer mynd i'r afael â materion hirsefydlog tai a adeiladwyd heb ystyriaeth i newid hinsawdd ac mae angen eu ôl-ffitio nhw. Felly, mae gennym ni raglen uchelgeisiol ar gyfer hynny. Ac yna, beth ydym ni'n ei wneud ynglŷn â'r plant sy'n dioddef o broblemau iechyd meddwl o ganlyniad i bopeth sydd wedi digwydd? Rwy'n derbyn bod rhestr aros ar gyfer CAMHS. Rydym ni'n ceisio rhoi mwy o gymorth i gamau cynt fel nad yw plant yn cyrraedd y cam lle mae angen y gwasanaeth CAMHS arnyn nhw. Er enghraifft, rydym ni'n cynnig gwasanaethau cwnsela mewn ysgolion, ac mae'r Dirprwy Weinidog Iechyd Meddwl a Llesiant yn ceisio sicrhau bod cyfleoedd ar gael yn llawer cynt yn y system ar gyfer triniaeth. Felly, rydym ni'n dymuno trin y plant cyn iddyn nhw gyrraedd sefyllfa o fod ag angen CAMHS. Rwy'n credu mai yn y fan honno y dylem ni wneud yr ymdrech. Ond yn olaf, mae'n debyg, mewn gwirionedd, pan fyddwn ni wedi cael y drafodaeth hon, mae hyn yn swnio yn ddigalon iawn, y sefyllfa yn fyd-eang, hynny yw. Mae popeth sy'n digwydd yn ddigon digalon ar hyn o bryd, felly fe hoffwn innau ymateb hefyd gan ddweud fy mod i o'r farn fod llawer o bethau calonnog yn digwydd hefyd, ac rydym ni'n symud ymlaen gyda llawer o bolisïau gan weithio gyda'n gilydd i sicrhau bod plant, gyda'r holl bethau ofnadwy hyn sydd yn digwydd, yn gallu byw'r bywydau gorau posibl iddyn nhw, a mwynhau eu hunain a chael y math o blentyndod yr ydym ni'n dymuno iddyn nhw ei gael.
