English: I endorse the comments about the Wrexham city of culture bid and the will-he-won't-he Ferrell visit, but I also call for an oral statement on mental health services in north Wales. On 29 September, the health Minister told the Senedd that a piece of work to ensure that the recommendations of the 2013 Holden report, documenting the failings of a north Wales mental health unit, 'provided assurance that action was taken and remains in place against each of the recommendations of the report'. This, despite a Healthcare Inspectorate Wales report the previous week confirming that the recommendations had not been met. On 8 December, the Deputy Minister for Mental Health and Well-being told the Senedd that 'The health board took action at that time to address the issues raised, and commissioned work to ensure that the Holden recommendations had been implemented.' However, a Healthcare Inspectorate Wales report on 23 December confirmed that the issues raised by whistleblowers in 2013 were still in existence, including the profile beds used by patients to commit suicide in December 2020 and April 2021. The next day, North Wales Community Health Council's chief executive e-mailed me stating that, 'in the light of the recently released Holden report, we can be sure that Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board cannot be left to implement recommendations without close oversight.' The ministerial code states that, 'It is of paramount importance that ministers give accurate and truthful information to the Senedd, correcting any inadvertent error at the earliest opportunity. Ministers who knowingly mislead the Senedd will be expected to offer their resignation'. I call for a statement here from the Ministers identified accordingly.
Welsh: Rwy'n ategu'r sylwadau ynghylch cais dinas diwylliant Wrecsam ac ymweliad posibl Will Ferrell, ond rwyf i'n galw hefyd am ddatganiad llafar ar wasanaethau iechyd meddwl yn y gogledd. Ar 29 Medi, dywedodd y Gweinidog iechyd wrth y Senedd fod darn o waith i sicrhau bod argymhellion adroddiad Holden 2013, sy'n cofnodi methiannau uned iechyd meddwl gogledd Cymru, 'yn rhoi sicrwydd bod camau wedi eu cymryd ac yn parhau i fod ar waith yn erbyn pob un o argymhellion yr adroddiad'. Roedd hyn er gwaethaf adroddiad gan Arolygiaeth Gofal Iechyd Cymru yr wythnos flaenorol yn cadarnhau nad oedd yr argymhellion wedi eu bodloni. Ar 8 Rhagfyr, dywedodd y Dirprwy Weinidog Iechyd Meddwl a Lles wrth y Senedd fod 'Y bwrdd iechyd wedi cymryd camau bryd hynny i fynd i'r afael â'r materion a gafodd eu codi, ac wedi comisiynu gwaith i sicrhau bod argymhellion Holden wedi eu gweithredu.' Fodd bynnag, cadarnhaodd adroddiad gan Arolygiaeth Gofal Iechyd Cymru ar 23 Rhagfyr fod y materion a godwyd gan chwythwyr chwiban yn 2013 yn dal i fodoli, gan gynnwys y gwelyau proffil a gafodd eu defnyddio gan gleifion i ladd eu hunain ym mis Rhagfyr 2020 a mis Ebrill 2021. Y diwrnod wedyn, anfonodd prif weithredwr Cyngor Iechyd Cymuned Gogledd Cymru e-bost ataf yn datgan, 'yng ngoleuni adroddiad Holden a gafodd ei ryddhau yn ddiweddar, gallwn ni fod yn sicr nad oes modd gadael Bwrdd Iechyd Prifysgol Betsi Cadwaladr i weithredu argymhellion heb oruchwyliaeth fanwl.' Mae'r cod gweinidogol yn nodi, 'Mae'n hollbwysig bod gweinidogion yn rhoi gwybodaeth gywir a gwir i'r Senedd, gan gywiro unrhyw gamgymeriad anfwriadol cyn gynted â phosibl. Bydd disgwyl i weinidogion sy'n camarwain y Senedd yn fwriadol gynnig eu hymddiswyddiad'. Rwy'n galw am ddatganiad yma gan y Gweinidogion sydd wedi eu nodi yn unol â hynny.
