Diolch i chi am yr ateb hwnnw, Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet. Fe wyddoch fy mod wedi crybwyll amseroedd aros orthopedig ar gyfer llawdriniaethau clun yn benodol wrth y Prif Weinidog yn ystod y cwestiynau i’r Prif Weinidog yn ddiweddar, ac wedi cyfeirio at y ffaith fod yr amser aros arferol ar hyn o bryd yn Ysbyty Glan Clwyd yn 112 wythnos ar gyfer llawdriniaethau o’r fath, er gwaethaf targed 26 wythnos Llywodraeth Cymru. Ar y pryd, ymatebodd y Prif Weinidog yn chwerthinllyd drwy ddweud bod llawfeddyg wedi’i benodi yng Nglan Clwyd—llawfeddyg locwm—er mwyn lleihau amseroedd aros yn yr ardal. Rwy’n falch eich bod yn cydnabod nad yw hynny’n mynd i ddatrys problem amseroedd aros i fy etholwyr. A gaf fi ofyn i chi, o ystyried bod y bwrdd iechyd ar hyn o bryd yn destun mesurau arbennig, faint o gyfrifoldeb rydych chi, fel Llywodraeth Cymru, yn ei dderbyn am ymestyn yr amseroedd aros hyn dros y ddwy flynedd ddiwethaf?
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.
