Mae gwasanaethau cyhoeddus yng Nghymru eisoes yn gorfod gwneud penderfyniadau anhygoel o anodd – mae'r GIG ac awdurdodau lleol yn nodi heriau difrifol, a phwysau sylweddol ar wasanaethau iechyd, gofal cymdeithasol, addysg, a digartrefedd. Mae methiant y Canghellor i gydnabod y pwysau hyn yn golygu bod ysgolion, ysbytai a gwasanaethau cyhoeddus hanfodol yn wynebu toriadau mewn termau real, gan effeithio'n ddifrifol ar gynaliadwyedd y gwasanaethau hynny i’r dyfodol.
