Ddoe fe wnaeth Southern Cross gyhoeddiad i’r Gyfnewidfa Stoc er mwyn rhoi diweddariad ar y broses o ailstrwythuro’r cwmni. Wedi hynny, cyhoeddodd yr Awdurdod Gwasanaethau Ariannol fod ei gyfranddaliadau wedi’u hatal dros dro. Er nad yw manylion yr ailstrwythuro hwn wedi’u cwblhau eto, mae’r cwmni wedi cadarnhau bod ei holl landlordiaid wedi cyhoeddi eu bwriad i adael Southern Cross a, lle nad oeddent hwy eu hunain eisoes yn ddarparwyr cartrefi gofal, i ganfod gweithredwyr newydd ar gyfer eu cartrefi. Caiff hyn ei wneud dros y pedwar mis nesaf mewn modd trefnus, wedi’i gynllunio ac ar sail consensws, gan gynnal yr holl daliadau i’r credydwyr a throsglwyddo holl staff y cartrefi gofal gyda’u hamodau gwasanaeth cyfredol. Nid yw Southern Cross yn mynd i ddwylo’r gweinyddwyr, ac ni fydd yn cau unrhyw gartrefi yn ystod y cyfnod trosiannol. Y bwriad yw trosglwyddo’r cartrefi i’r landlordiaid a’r gweithredwyr newydd mewn modd trefnus.
Yesterday Southern Cross made an announcement to the Stock Exchange to provide an update on the restructuring of the company. The Financial Services Authority subsequently announced a temporary suspension of its shares. While the details of this restructuring are not yet settled, the company has confirmed that all its landlords had indicated their intention to leave Southern Cross and where they were not themselves already care home providers to find new operators for their homes. This move is being undertaken over the next four months in a managed, planned and consensual manner, with all payments to creditors being maintained and all care home staff transferring on their current terms of services. Southern Cross is not going into administration, nor is it closing any care homes during this transition period. A smooth transition of homes to landlords and new operators is intended.
