Rwyf i wedi bod yn diweddaru’r Aelodau ar gynnydd yr Adolygiad Cyfiawnder Teuluol ac mae heddiw’n garreg filltir bwysig gyda chyhoeddiymateb Llywodraeth y DU i’r Adolygiada gomisiynwyd yn gynnar yn 2010. Roedd adroddiad terfynol y Panel Adolygu a gyhoeddwyd ym mis Tachwedd 2011 yn gosod set eang o argymhellion ynglŷn â sut i adolygu’r system cyfiawnder teuluol. Mae hwn yn faes hynod o gymhleth sy’n croesi ar draws materion sydd wedi’u datganoli a rhai nad ydynt wedi’u datganoli, gan gynnwys cyfraith gyhoeddus a phreifat. Hoffwn ddiolch i’r Panel am eu sylw craff a’u diwydrwydd wrth ymgymryd ag adolygiad mor gynhwysfawr o’r system gymhleth hon, yn ogystal â diolch i bawb a gyfrannodd i’r gwaith ac a ymatebodd yn ystod y broses ymgynghori. Yn benodol hoffwn dalu teyrnged i Keith Towler, Comisiynydd Plant Cymru, oedd yn aelod hanfodol o’r Panel Adolygu yn hyrwyddo llais a hawliau plant yng Nghymru.
I have been keeping Members updated on the progress of the Family Justice Review and today marks a key milestone with the publication of theUK Government’s response to the Review, commissioned early in 2010. The Review Panel’s final report which was published in November 2011 set out an extensive set of recommendations on how to reform the family justice system. This is a highly complex area crossing both devolved and non-devolved matters, including public and private law. I would like to thank the Panel for their focus and diligence in undertaking such a comprehensive review of this complex system, as well as thank all those who informed the work and responded in the consultation process. In particular I would like to pay tribute to Keith Towler, the Children’s Commissioner for Wales, who was an integral member of the Review Panel in championing the voice and rights of children in Wales.
