Mae angen rhoi ystyriaeth ofalus a manwl i newidiadau mor bwysig â hyn. Felly, i helpu’r gwaith hwn, rwy’n falch o fod wedi cael cymorth gan y Grŵp Llywio Gwella Strategol, dan gadeiryddiaeth Sally Ellis. Penodwyd y grŵp hwn o arbenigwyr annibynnol yn 2013 i helpu’r Gweinidogion i ystyried sut i wneud gwelliannau ym maes gofal cymdeithasol. Dros y chwe mis diwethaf, mae eu gwaith wedi canolbwyntio ar y cynigion ar gyfer Gofal Cymdeithasol Cymru – beth fydd ei swyddogaethau, sut caiff ei lywodraethu a sut caiff ei sefydlu.
Changes of this importance require careful and detailed consideration. To assist in this work I therefore have been pleased to have support from the Strategic Improvement Steering Group (SISG), chaired by Sally Ellis. This group of independent experts was appointed in 2013 to help Ministers consider how to take forward improvement in social care. Over the past 6 months their work has focused on the proposals for SCW – its functions, governance and establishment.
