Cyhoeddir yr atebion yn yr iaith y’u cyflwynir ynddi, gyda chyfieithiad i’r Saesneg o ymatebion a roddir yn y Gymraeg.

Weinidog Iechyd a Gwasanaethau Cymdeithasol (Mark Drakeford): The healthcare system in Wales has always been founded on the principles of Aneurin Bevan that health care is comprehensive, universal and free at the point of access. It is a planned system based on meeting population need rather than one based on market approaches or complicated commissioning processes.
There are occasions where it will be necessary to treat patients in the independent sector, for example, when requiring specialist services in the field of mental health.
When a need arises, Health Boards have been advised they should look initially at utilising any available capacity in the NHS in Wales, then England, and thereafter the private / independent sector.

Mark Drakeford: We are committed to encouraging the development of dementia supportive communities in order to build understanding, compassion and tolerance about dementia at the community level. The ongoing delivery of the National Dementia Vision for Wales

The network is led Dr Bernadette Fuge, former Principal Medical Officer of the Welsh Government and Chair of Age Cymru, and guided by an Expert Advisory Group.

Weinidog Tai ac Afywio (Carl Sargeant):The consultation paper Positive Planning included proposals to introduce a new category of planning application covering developments of national significance (DNS) that would be decided by Welsh Ministers. The consultation also sought views on whether there should be the option of submitting certain connected applications to be considered by the Welsh Ministers at the same time and following the same process as the main DNS application.
The outcome of the consultation is currently being considered and will inform the Planning (Wales) Bill to be introduced to the National Assembly later this year.

Carl Sargeant: The guidance issued by John Griffiths in his Ministerial Letter of July 2011 remains in place.

Whether the UK respects the Welsh Government’s capacity limits remains to be seen.
