English: Of course, under these circumstances, staff in the NHS, as we've heard already, do excellent work under very difficult circumstances, which are complex, and they are so very busy, it's very difficult to be able to convey how busy we are, often, to people who don't work under those conditions. So, there are three things to say about this debate on capacity in the NHS. Yes, there is a staff shortage, in the first place. If you name any profession working in the NHS, you need more of them - nurses and GPs. We're short of about 400 GPs here in Wales. There are about 2,000 GPs in Wales and there should be about 2,500, and we have fewer doctors per capita in Wales than in the majority of other countries in Europe. Among our specialists in hospitals, about 40 per cent of consultant posts are vacant posts in our hospitals here in Wales. So, of course, with such a busy system and a staff shortage, of course we're going to have waiting lists, people having to work far too hard and so forth and so on. That's why, as a party, we want to open a new medical school in Bangor. We have to train more doctors in the first place. We have to develop more of them, because we don't produce enough doctors at present, and even if everyone who graduated these days stayed to work in Wales, we still wouldn't have enough doctors in Wales to serve our population. Another element of the capacity is a shortage of beds, which has already been mentioned. There are several royal colleges that say this, and sometimes it's not fashionable to talk about bed shortages, because over the last quarter of a century we've lost several thousand beds in our hospitals and in our care homes here in Wales. Why is that important? Well, with an ageing population, there is a range of people who are too ill to stay at home, even with whatever intensive package you have supporting them. But despite the fact that they're sick and they're so vulnerable, they're not seriously ill enough to take a bed in an acute ward in a general hospital like Singleton or Morriston. There's always a range of patients who fall between those two stools, and we can't deal with them very well these days in the absence of beds in our community hospitals. The final point that I'm going to make about capacity, of course, is the fact that the majority of capacity here is outside the health service. I'm talking here about social care. The social care situation in Wales, as in the rest of Britain, is very vulnerable at present because of significant underfunding over the years, which means that there is a very high threshold for you to be able to access services from social services. But, basically, if there is no social care, there won't be a health service. That's why, in the first place, we need to tackle social care. Time is short now, because we can't offer any kind of support to a great deal of our population at the moment. That's how serious the situation is. And that's why, as a party, we're looking to reconfigure, radically, the social care system by creating a national social care service that will operate like our health service, and alongside our health service. We have to do that, because, at present, we can't offer care to our most vulnerable people who most need that care, and the resources are just not available. The time has passed to just take small measures at the margins; we need a radical solution, and a new national social care system that befits our country. Thank you.
Welsh: Wrth gwrs, o dan y fath amgylchiadau, mae'r staff yn y gwasanaeth iechyd, fel rydym ni wedi clywed eisoes, yn cyflawni gwaith clodwiw iawn o dan amgylchiadau sydd yn anodd, sydd yn gymhleth, ac sydd mor, mor brysur mae'n anodd iawn gallu trosglwyddo pa mor brysur ydym ni, yn aml, i bobl sydd ddim yn gweithio o dan y fath amgylchiadau. Felly, mae yna ryw dri pheth i'w ddweud ynglŷn â'r ddadl yma ynglŷn â chapasiti yn y gwasanaeth iechyd. Oes, mae yna brinder staff yn y lle cyntaf. Enwch chi unrhyw fath o broffesiwn sy'n gweithio yn y gwasanaeth iechyd ac mae angen rhagor ohonyn nhw - nyrsys, meddygon teulu. Rydym ni'n brin o ryw 400 o feddygon teulu yma yng Nghymru. Mae yna ryw 2,000 o feddygon teulu yng Nghymru; dylai fod yna tua 2,500. Mae gennym ni lai o feddygon y pen yma yng Nghymru na'r rhan fwyaf o wledydd eraill Ewrop. Ymhlith ein harbenigwyr ni yn ein hysbytai, mae tua 40 y cant o swyddi consultants, felly, yn wag yn ein hysbytai ni yma yng Nghymru. Felly, wrth gwrs, gyda system mor brysur a phrinder staff, wrth gwrs ein bod ni'n mynd i gael rhestrau aros, pobl yn gorfod gweithio llawer yn rhy galed ac ati, ac ati. Dyna pam, fel plaid, rydym ni eisiau agor ysgol feddygol newydd ym Mangor. Mae'n rhaid inni hyfforddi mwy o feddygon yn y lle cyntaf. Mae'n rhaid inni dyfu fwy ohonyn nhw achos nid ydym ni'n cynhyrchu digon o feddygon ar hyn o bryd, a hyd yn oed pe bai pob un sy'n graddio'r dyddiau yma yn aros i weithio yng Nghymru, ni fuasai yna yn dal ddim digon o feddygon yng Nghymru i fod yn gwasanaethu ein pobl. Elfen arall o'r capasiti ydy prinder gwlâu sydd wedi cael ei sôn amdano eisoes. Mae sawl coleg brenhinol yn dweud am hyn ac weithiau nid yw hi'n ffasiynol i sôn am brinder gwlâu, achos dros y chwarter canrif diwethaf, rydym ni wedi colli rhai miloedd o wlâu yn ein hysbytai ac yn ein cartrefi gofal yma yng Nghymru. Pam mae hynny'n bwysig? Wel, gyda'r boblogaeth yn mynd yn hŷn rŵan, mae yna ystod o bobl sydd yn rhy sâl i aros gartref, hyd yn oed â pha bynnag package dwys sydd gyda chi yn eu cefnogi nhw. Ond eto, er eu salwch a'r ffaith eu bod nhw mor fregus, nid ydyn nhw'n ddigon difrifol wael i fod ar wely mewn ward argyfwng acíwt mewn ysbyty cyffredinol fel Singleton neu Dreforys. Mae yna wastad ystod o gleifion sy'n cwympo rhwng y ddwy stôl yna, ac nid ydym ni'n gallu delio efo nhw yn dda iawn y dyddiau hyn yn absenoldeb gwlâu yn ein hysbytai cymunedol ni. Y pwynt olaf rwy'n mynd i'w wneud o ran capasiti, wrth gwrs, ydy bod y rhan fwyaf o'r capasiti pwysig yn fan hyn y tu allan i'r gwasanaeth iechyd. Rwy'n sôn yn fan hyn am ofal cymdeithasol. Mae sefyllfa gofal cymdeithasol yng Nghymru, fel yng ngweddill Prydain, yn fregus iawn ar hyn o bryd oherwydd tanariannu cyson dros y blynyddoedd, sy'n golygu bod yna drothwy uchel iawn i chi allu derbyn gwasanaethau, wedyn, oddi wrth y gwasanaethau cymdeithasol. Yn y bôn, os nad oes yna ddim gofal cymdeithasol, fydd yna ddim gwasanaeth iechyd. Dyna pam, yn y lle cyntaf, mae angen mynd i'r afael efo gofal cymdeithasol. Mae'r amser yn brin rŵan, achos nid ydym ni'n gallu cynnig unrhyw fath o gefnogaeth i drwch eang o'n poblogaeth ar hyn o bryd. Dyna pa mor ddifrifol ydy'r sefyllfa. A dyna pam, fel plaid, rydym ni'n edrych i ailgynllunio'n radical y system gofal cymdeithasol drwy greu gwasanaeth gofal cymdeithasol cenedlaethol o'r newydd, a fydd yn gweithredu fel ein gwasanaeth iechyd ni, ochr yn ochr. Mae'n rhaid, achos ar hyn o bryd, nid ydym ni'n gallu cynnig fawr ddim gofal i'n pobl fwyaf bregus ni sydd fwyaf angen y gofal yna, ac mae'r adnoddau jest ddim ar gael. Mae'r amser wedi pasio i jest wneud pethau bach wrth yr ochrau; mae angen ateb radical a gwasanaeth gofal cymdeithasol newydd, teilwng i'n gwlad. Diolch yn fawr.
