Rydym eisoes wedi ymrwymo i gyhoeddi Papur Gwyn ar ddyfodol rheoleiddio ac arolygu gofal cymdeithasol yng Nghymru ac i gyflwyno deddfwriaeth os bydd angen er mwyn cyflawni ein nodau. Mae hyn yn rhoi i ni’r cyfle aur y mae arnom ei angen i fynd ati i  oruchwylio’r farchnad gofal cymdeithasol ac i ystyried pa welliannau y byddai eu hangen yn achos ein trefniadau presennol ar gyfer rheoleiddio ac arolygu darparwyr. Bydd y  Papur Gwyn yn amlinellu’r dewisiadau ar gyfer cryfhau rheoleiddio gofal gwasanaethau a lleoliadau, yn arbennig rheolaeth ariannol ar ddarparwyr, a sut rydym yn bwriadu bwrw ymlaen â’r agenda hon. Bydd yn ystyried y model ar gyfer rheoleiddio yn y dyfodol a’r pwerau gorfodi a ddylai fod ar gael i Weinidogion Cymru.  Bydd darpariaethau mewn perthynas â chofrestru  darparwyr corfforaethol mawr a mecanweithiau ar gyfer ymdrin ag achosion o fethiant ar ran darparwyr, gan gynnwys methiant ariannol, yn rhan o’r ystyriaethau hyn. Rydym wrthi’n ymgysylltu â rhanddeiliaid allweddol ynghylch llunio ein Papur Gwyn ac mae’n fwriad gennyf gyhoeddi hwn ym mis Medi. Trefnaf fod gwybodaeth bellach ar gael am hyn maes o law.
We are already committed to issuing a White Paper on the future of regulation and inspection of social care in Wales and to subsequently bringing forward legislation should this be required to deliver our goals. This presents us with the golden opportunity we require to address this oversight of the social care market and to consider what enhancement of our current arrangements for regulation and inspection of providers would be necessary. The White Paper will set out the options for strengthening the regulation of care services and settings, particularly the financial regulation of providers, and how we plan to take this agenda forward. It will consider the future model regulation should take and the enforcement powers that should be available to Welsh Ministers.  Provisions around the registration of large, corporate providers and mechanisms for handling instances of provider failure, including financial failure, will form part of these considerations. Engagement with key stakeholders on the formulation of our White Paper is currently in progress and it is my intention to publish this in September   I will make further information available on this in due course.
