Adolygiad o weithrediadau, prosesau ac ymchwiliadau a gynhaliwyd gan Ombwdsmon Gwasanaethau Cyhoeddus Cymru: Sesiwn dystiolaeth
A former Senedd Member, Neil McEvoy, regularly accused the ombudsman's service of being biased against him, but you're saying now you never received a formal complaint from him.

You said the contract was with Velindre University NHS Trust, and I have no doubt about that. Is it underwritten by either the Welsh Government or the Welsh NHS? If I was the contractor, I would be very loath to contract with an organisation that could be…

I'll ask you this, and the auditor general's staff may wish to come in: if the health boards overspend by £200 million, when we get the consolidated accounts that £200 million will show as overspend, but the money itself would have to come from the Welsh…

I don't want to anticipate your answers, but on energy I suggest you visit some hospitals—the numbers that are so hot that they have to open the windows to get the heat out. That's hugely financially disadvantageous. Can I urge you to go and visit some of…

Okay. I'll rephrase the question. If any health board this year breaks even and others don't, will they be financially punished for breaking even, i.e. the extra money will be given to those that didn't break even and the one that breaks even is told, 'You…

One year, Aneurin Bevan broke even and they were punished for it. All the other health boards got additional money, but Aneurin Bevan, because they'd broken even, didn't need any additional money. What better incentive can you generate to make health boards…

Thank you. That was a very nice 'no'. Are there any consequences for NHS bodies that have not met their year-end financial targets?

In autumn 2020, the Welsh Government announced a financial assistance package for the health board of £297 million up to the end of March 2024. Has this money worked?

When I was involved, many years ago, with Swansea, before they were created, local health boards, the two big problems in terms of costs were agency nurses and locum doctors. Is that still the problem?

Obviously, if you're running an organisation well, you'll have monthly updates on finance, you'll run those against your plan and it's not necessarily one twelfth of the year's expenditure, it'll be a certain proportion of that. After three months, you'll…

I don't expect you to be able to do it now, but could you give us in writing a breakdown of what is being spent on the special measures?

We were previously told by a middle-ranking manager who'd been given their budget in Betsi Cadwaladr that they'd decided it wasn't enough, so they ignored it. Can you confirm that that is not allowed to happen at the moment? Because there's been a tremendous…

I take your point about it being a new organisation; I accepted that 15 years ago when it was just created. It's been there for 15 years now. I don't think, apart from you, many other people would describe a 15-year-old organisation as 'a new organisation'. I…

Diolch, Cadeirydd. Well, I've been on the public accounts committee on and off for 13 years. During the whole of that time, we've discussed Betsi Cadwaladr. What is your assessment of the root cause of the health board’s troubled history? My assessment is…

Nid wyf yn siŵr sut y byddai pobl yng Nghymru yn pleidleisio ar rywbeth fel hyn. Rwy'n credu pe bai'r ddadl yn cael ei gwneud am faint pwyllgorau, anhawster cadw cworwm pwyllgorau, mae'n ddigon posibl y byddai pobl Cymru wedi meddwl, 'Wel, efallai fod angen…
