Gwasanaethau i blant sydd wedi bod mewn gofal: archwilio diwygio radical - sesiwn dystiolaeth 6
It's just on the disparity of the care and level of service across Wales. Whose job do you think it is to try and get more uniformity? Do you think Care Inspectorate Wales have got a role to play here? The Welsh Local Government Association—have they got a…

Are there any other comments on that? If not, it's fine. I'm done. Thank you.

I've got one question. I had some questions on the previous point but I think we need to move on in the interest of time. We've been told by birth parents aged 18 and under that as soon as they have their child, even if they're on a care order, the local…

And are you getting anywhere? That's the question. [Laughter.]

And are local authorities and Careers Wales keeping you in the loop about what work and how conversations are going?

Craffu ar Adroddiad Blynyddol Estyn 2021-22
Yes, I think that would be really, really good for us, to have that information. Good. I just want to move on to my final question now. You highlighted the valuable role that Careers Wales play currently in assessing the needs of post-16 learners and…

Are you going to do further work in this area, though, to make sure the bar hasn’t been raised?

Craffu ar Adroddiad Blynyddol Estyn 2021-22
Can I interrupt there? You said there’s not an absolute raising of the bar. So does that mean—?

Craffu ar Adroddiad Blynyddol Estyn 2021-22
Okay, thank you. Because there has been a reduction in the numbers of children who are recognised as having SEN or ALN over the past year. Has Estyn recognised any raising of the bar in terms of applying the definition? And have you also identified or…

I was actually going to touch then, as you said about understanding—. Do you think all the teachers have fully grasped the principle that ALN is the responsibility of all teachers and not just the additional learning needs co-ordinators?

Diolch, Cadeirydd. I want to talk about additional learning needs reform, at the minute, so can you tell me how schools are coping with implementing the new additional learning needs reform system, and what are the challenges in operating both the new ALN…

Gwasanaethau i blant sydd â phrofiad o ofal: archwilio diwygio radical—sesiwn dystiolaeth 4
Yes, thank you, Chair. More of a general question for the panel now. We've heard extensive evidence about the huge disruption and upset for children when they face frequent changes to social workers. I've heard of 10 social workers up to 16 social workers in…

Diolch yn fawr iawn, Cadeirydd. I've got one question for NYAS, if that's okay. In calls for written evidence to Welsh Government, you asked for a complete ban on all forms of unregulated accommodation, guaranteeing that children in care are cared for where…

Gwasanaethau i blant sydd â phrofiad o ofal: archwilio diwygio radical—sesiwn dystiolaeth 3
Mine was actually on the education point, and I've raised this a couple of times now in other evidence sessions. Do you think there needs to be a change in how universities actually deliver social work qualifications? Because I've got friends who've gone…

Gwasanaethau i blant sydd â phrofiad o ofal: archwilio diwygio radical—sesiwn dystiolaeth 3
That's very good and leads on to my next question there, because we've heard from young people about the changes in social workers—10 social workers in a year, 16 social workers in a year—and that has a huge, huge impact on those young people. I know that…

Diolch yn fawr iawn am hynna, Dirprwy Weinidog. Ar ôl cyfarfod ag elusennau, mae llawer ohonyn nhw wedi sôn wrthyf i nad yw data ar gael yn rheolaidd, ac mai un ffordd y gallem ni gryfhau'r maes hwn yw drwy edrych unwaith eto ar Fesur Iechyd Meddwl (Cymru)…

Diolch i chi, Dirprwy Weinidog. Mae gallu cael gafael ar yr wybodaeth yn bwysig, fel rydych chi newydd ei amlygu, i'r bobl yr ydym ni'n eu gwasanaethu, ac mae hynny'n taflu goleuni ar berfformiad Llywodraeth Cymru a'r byrddau iechyd hefyd. Er enghraifft, mae…

Y Bil Bwyd (Cymru): Sesiwn dystiolaeth
But on my one point, though, what I'm trying to get to is—. I want to see it succeed, Peter, I really do, but we live in an area where the Minister obviously doesn't look like she's going to support this, and you said the main element is she doesn't support…

You know my view on commissions and commissioners, Peter; I think we've got enough Government quangos telling them what they want to hear. I'll be honest, I think we've got enough of those and I don't think they deliver for the people of Wales. That's my…
