Southern Cross sy’n gyfrifol am faterion staffio, er mwyn cynnig gofal priodol i’r preswylwyr. Mae’n rhaid i’r broses o ailstrwythuro ariannol o fewn y cwmni ddigwydd ar sail fasnachol, ac maent wedi llunio cynllun i sefydlogi eu busnes. Rwy’n cael ar ddeall bod y datblygiad diweddaraf hwn yn rhan o’r broses honno, a bod trafodaethau â staff a’r Undebau yn rhan o hynny. Nid yw’n briodol i Lywodraeth Cymru ymyrryd yn y trafodaethau masnachol hyn. Yn ein holl drafodaethau gyda’r cwmni rydym wedi dweud yn glir mai’n prif ystyriaeth ni yw buddiannau’r preswylwyr a bod camau clir yn cael eu cymryd i’w hamddiffyn.
The responsibility for staffing matters to provide proper care for residents is for Southern Cross. The financial restructuring of the company must be resolved on a commercial basis and they have put in place a plan to stabilise their business. I understand that this latest development is a part of that process and involves engagement with staff and Unions. It is not the role of Welsh Government to interfere in these commercial negotiations. In all our discussions with the company we have made clear that our main concern is the interests of resident and that clear protections for them are in place.
