Diolch yn fawr iawn, Ddirprwy Lywydd. Prynhawn da, Weinidog. Diolch i chi am eich cyhoeddiad ddoe ar benodi bwrdd cychwynnol Gofal Cymdeithasol Cymru. Fel y gwyddom, bydd ei ddyletswyddau’n ymestyn ymhell y tu hwnt i ddyletswyddau cofrestru fel y’u cyflawnir gan y cyngor gofal, a gwnaeth ei gadeirydd yn glir i mi ddoe eu bod yn edrych ymlaen at ddefnyddio’u harbenigedd cyfunol i fod yn gyfaill beirniadol i’r Llywodraeth yn ogystal â dylanwadu ar gyfeiriad a blaenoriaethau polisi ar gyfer gofal cymdeithasol a gwasanaethau cymdeithasol. Gobeithio y bydd hyn yn unioni anghydbwysedd yr un llais arbenigol ar gyfer gofal cymdeithasol ar y panel adolygu seneddol. Sut rydych chi fel Gweinidog yn bwriadu manteisio ar y corff hwn o arbenigedd er mwyn atal yr agenda integreiddio rhag arwain at ryw fath o fodel meddygol ar gyfer gofal cymdeithasol, a sut rydych wedi gwerthuso faint yn fwy o adnoddau fydd eu hangen arno na’r cyngor gofal er mwyn gallu cyflawni ei rolau ym maes datblygiad proffesiynol a dylanwadu ar bolisi?
The cabinet is the group of twenty or so (and no more than 22) senior government ministers who are responsible for running the departments of state and deciding government policy.
It is chaired by the prime minister.
The cabinet is bound by collective responsibility, which means that all its members must abide by and defend the decisions it takes, despite any private doubts that they might have.
Cabinet ministers are appointed by the prime minister and chosen from MPs or peers of the governing party.
However, during periods of national emergency, or when no single party gains a large enough majority to govern alone, coalition governments have been formed with cabinets containing members from more than one political party.
War cabinets have sometimes been formed with a much smaller membership than the full cabinet.
From time to time the prime minister will reorganise the cabinet in order to bring in new members, or to move existing members around. This reorganisation is known as a cabinet re-shuffle.
The cabinet normally meets once a week in the cabinet room at Downing Street.
