English: Thank you for your answer, Minister, and I attach myself to the first part of your answer there. In regard to the recovery plan, I noticed that Nick Bennett, the Public Services Ombudsman for Wales, today talks about NHS waiting times in Wales causing a public health crisis. So, it's certainly my view that we are a long way from even getting on to a recovery plan. And a recovery plan, to me, should be significantly about reducing the backlogs in our Welsh NHS, and that's not something you did address in your answer. When I mentioned this to you a couple of weeks ago, you talked about, 'We only saw an increase of 0.2 per cent in December for Welsh NHS waiting lists', but it's my view that we should not be celebrating that kind of - . Well, it's not an achievement at all. What we do need to do is absolutely focus on significantly reducing the waiting times backlog, and of course the Welsh NHS and health boards should be supported at every level to eat into those backlogs. And of course, behind every stat - . We talk about stats, don't we, Minister? I know you'll agree with me that behind every stat there are real people that are in pain waiting for months and for years for treatment, and I know that you'll find that unacceptable yourself. But this is about how we reduce those significant backlogs. I understand, Minister, you've asked health boards to ensure that none of their patients are waiting more than two years by the end of February, just gone, and also waiting for more than a year for urgent outpatient appointments by the end of January, January just gone. So, can I ask you, Minister, have these targets been met, and what direct actions are you going to take to ensure that health boards and the health service are urgently reducing these shocking - and they are shocking - health times so that we are not in that public health crisis?
Welsh: Diolch am eich ateb, Weinidog, ac rwy'n ategu rhan gyntaf eich ateb yno. Ar y cynllun adfer, sylwais fod Nick Bennett, Ombwdsmon Gwasanaethau Cyhoeddus Cymru, wedi sôn heddiw fod amseroedd aros y GIG yng Nghymru yn achosi argyfwng iechyd cyhoeddus. Felly, yn sicr, fy marn i yw bod gennym ffordd bell i fynd cyn dechrau ar gynllun adfer hyd yn oed. Ac i mi, dylai cynllun adfer ymwneud yn helaeth â lleihau'r ôl-groniadau yn ein GIG yng Nghymru, ac ni wnaethoch roi sylw i hynny yn eich ateb. Pan soniais wrthych am hyn ychydig wythnosau yn ôl, fe ddywedoch chi, 'Dim ond cynnydd o 0.2 y cant a welsom ym mis Rhagfyr ar gyfer rhestrau aros GIG Cymru', ond fy marn i yw na ddylem fod yn dathlu'r math hwnnw - . Wel, nid yw'n gyflawniad o gwbl. Mae angen inni ganolbwyntio'n bendant iawn ar leihau'r ôl-groniadau amseroedd aros yn sylweddol, ac wrth gwrs dylid cynorthwyo GIG Cymru a'r byrddau iechyd ar bob lefel i leihau'r ôl-groniadau hynny. Ac wrth gwrs, y tu ôl i bob ystadegyn - . Rydym yn sôn am ystadegau, onid ydym, Weinidog? Rwy'n gwybod y byddwch yn cytuno â mi fod yna bobl go iawn y tu ôl i bob ystadegyn, pobl go iawn sy'n aros mewn poen am fisoedd a blynyddoedd am driniaeth, a gwn y byddwch yn ystyried hynny'n annerbyniol eich hun. Ond mae hyn yn ymwneud â sut rydym yn mynd i leihau'r ôl-groniadau sylweddol hynny. Weinidog, rwy'n deall eich bod wedi gofyn i fyrddau iechyd sicrhau nad oes yr un o'u cleifion yn aros mwy na dwy flynedd erbyn diwedd mis Chwefror, sydd newydd fod, a sicrhau hefyd nad oes yr un o'u cleifion yn aros am fwy na blwyddyn am apwyntiadau cleifion allanol brys erbyn diwedd mis Ionawr, y mis Ionawr sydd newydd fod. Felly, a gaf fi ofyn ichi, Weinidog, a yw'r targedau hyn wedi'u cyrraedd, a pha gamau uniongyrchol y bwriadwch eu cymryd i sicrhau bod byrddau iechyd a'r gwasanaeth iechyd yn lleihau'r amseroedd aros iechyd brawychus hyn - ac maent yn frawychus - ar frys, er mwyn inni allu cefnu ar yr argyfwng iechyd cyhoeddus hwn?
