Mae nifer o gamau gweithredu eraill ar waith i sicrhau bod gan bob Bwrdd drefniadau llywodraethu cadarn. Mae hyn yn cynnwys trefniadau cynefino newydd ar gyfer Aelodau Annibynnol, a fydd yn orfodol ar gyfer pob aelod newydd a benodir. Bydd y rhaglen yn atgyfnerthu pwysigrwydd rôl yr Aelod Annibynnol fel penodiad cyhoeddus. Bydd hefyd yn helpu i ddatblygu eu sgiliau o ran craffu a gofyn am sicrhad, fel aelod o fwrdd. Yn ogystal, rwyf wedi gofyn am gynnal adolygiad o’r Cod Ymddygiad ar gyfer Byrddau a Rheolwyr y GIG er mwyn atgyfnerthu’r safonau a ddisgwylir ganddynt fel Aelodau o Fwrdd. Er fy mod yn cydnabod mai cyfrifoldeb ar y cyd yw llywodraethu’r Bwrdd a’r sefydliad, rwyf hefyd wedi ymrwymo i gryfhau rôl Ysgrifennydd y Bwrdd fel ceidwad llywodraethu da o fewn sefydliadau’r GIG yng Nghymru.
There are also a number of other actions in train to ensure robust governance arrangements are in place in all Boards. This includes a new approach to Independent Member Induction which will be mandatory for all new appointees. The programme will re-enforce the importance of the role of the Independent Member as a public appointee. It will also help develop their skills in providing scrutiny and seeking assurance as a board member.  In addition I have requested a review of the Code of Conduct for Boards and NHS Managers to re-enforce the standards expected of them as Board Members. Whilst recognising the collective responsibility for governance of the Board and organisation, I am also committed to strengthening the role of the Board Secretary as the guardian of good governance within NHS organisations in Wales.
