Rwy’n ymwybodol o ymdrech barhaus y carchar i wella gofal ar gyfer menywod yn ei ddalfa. Aeth y Cwnsler Cyffredinol a minnau ar ymweliad â charchar Eastwood Park ar 19 Ionawr ac roedd gennym bryderon yn dilyn yr adborth a gafwyd, gan gynnwys y diffyg mynediad at addysg. Rwy’n ymwybodol bod y Pwyllgor Cydraddoldeb a Chyfiawnder Cymdeithasol wedi mynegi pryder am ddiffyg staff a materion tebyg drwy ymchwiliad y Senedd i brofiadau menywod yn y system cyfiawnder troseddol. Byddwn yn parhau i geisio diweddariadau rheolaidd ar y camau gweithredu i fynd i’r afael â’r materion a nodwyd.

We will continue to seek regular updates on action to address the identified issues and
