Diolch yn fawr iawn. A ydych yn cydnabod bod lefel gwariant y DU ar seilwaith yng Nghymru wedi bod yn ddiffygiol a phryd y mae eich plaid yn mynd i sefyll dros Gymru?

Yes. We believe that care should be available free at the point of need and that those who can pay, and are reasonably able to pay, can contribute to that. Where we have more concerns is whether financial assessments and people's understanding of the process…

I mean the overall funding model in terms of care, and we've obviously spent some time talking about the Welsh landscape and architecture. So, it's just really a comment from Age Cymru in that regard.

Okay. So, to summarise, if I can understand that: you would think they would be better aligned in terms of that variation and, obviously, without putting off earlier intervention in terms of care in the community. And my final question, then, really, is more…

That's interesting, nonetheless. I'm going to ask in terms, then, of the disparity between charges for care in the community that service users pay compared to the contributions for a care home placement. I mean, what's your perspective in terms of the…

Comisiynu Cartrefi Gofal i Bobl Hŷn: Sesiwn Dystiolaeth 2
So, what do you think it is, from your sort of perspective? You've highlighted to us this disconnect, and it does seem very unfair to the service user, family and friends that this top-up continues to grow. I mean, what do you think it reflects, from your…

With regard, then, to those variations in terms of weekly placement costs, what does Age Cymru see as perhaps the reasoning for those differences in unit costs, particularly around weekly placement costs? And do you feel that there is any justification for…

Okay. Thank you very much.

Comisiynu Cartrefi Gofal i Bobl Hŷn: Sesiwn Dystiolaeth 2
Thank you. My question further to that is: out of all of the complications and difficulties and tensions that you have outlined to us this morning, do you feel that a unified health and social care service under one roof might help to address these…

You see a lot of scope, then, in terms of simplification, and you've mentioned the vehicle of the Supporting People package previously, retrospectively. So, you see there's a lot of scope there in terms of simplification so that the service user has that…

Comisiynu Cartrefi Gofal i Bobl Hŷn: Sesiwn Dystiolaeth 2
Thank you for that last answer, that was interesting. In regard, then, to potential division or division throughout the public sector partners working within the care sector, how do you feel that the public sector funding's current approach could be made…

Thank you for that. In regard to the expert panel that you are sitting on, I do hope that there is note being taken of the intermediate rehabilitative care for dementia sufferers in Sweden—and Scandinavia, as an aside—because it is absolutely fantastic. What…
