Er bod y cyhoeddiad yn cynnwys buddsoddiad sylweddol yn y tymor hwy, roedd yn anochel y byddai gweithwyr TSUK, a'u teuluoedd, yn poeni'n ofnadwy am eu swyddi a'r effeithiau cymdeithasol y byddai'n rhaid iddyn nhw a'u cymunedau eu hysgwyddo pe bai gweithwyr yn colli urddas gwaith. Mewn cyfarfodydd a datganiadau cyhoeddus, rwyf wedi rhybuddio Gweinidogion Llywodraeth y DU rhag seilio'u rhagdybiaethau ar y senario gwaethaf gan y byddai hynny'n tanseilio trafodaethau sy'n gofyn am le, amser ac arbenigedd. Ni fu clust i wrando arnom, ac rwy'n pryderu'n fawr am y ffordd ddryslyd a difater ambell waith, y mae Llywodraeth y DU wedi delio â'r mater hwn.
Whilst the announcement contained significant investment for the longer term, it was inevitable that TSUK employees, and their families, became extremely anxious for their jobs and the social impact they and their communities would have to bear should workers lose the dignity of employment. In both direct meetings and public statements, I have cautioned against UK Government Ministers basing assumptions on the worst case scenario because such actions actively undermine negotiations that require space, time and expertise. These requests were not heeded, and I am deeply concerned at the confused and, at times, indifferent approach adopted by the UK Government on this matter.
