We have made it clear that fluoridating drinking water supplies is a cost-effective public health measure

Yr ydym wedi'i gwneud yn eglur bod fflworideiddio cyflenwadau dŵr yn fesur iechyd cyhoeddus cost effeithiol

Our plan , ` Improving Health in Wales ', outlines that fluoridating drinking water supplies could be a cost-effective public health measure delivered to the widest population at risk

Amlinella ein cynllun ` Gwella Iechyd yng Nghymru ', y gallai fflworideiddio cyflenwadau dŵr yfed fod yn fesur iechyd cyhoeddus cost-effeithiol a gyflwynir i'r boblogaeth ehangaf sy'n wynebu risg

I agree that that is important , but do you not think that it would be hypocritical for the Government to consider fluoridating the water supply for everyone in Wales while continuing to allow sweets and coca cola to be sold in vending machines in every school ?

Cytunaf fod hynny'n bwysig , ond oni chredwch y byddai'n rhagrithiol i'r Llywodraeth ystyried fflworideiddio cyflenwad dŵr pawb yng Nghymru tra'n parhau i ganiatáu gwerthu losin a coca cola mewn peiriannau gwerthu ym mhob ysgol ?

However , do you not agree that one of the most effective ways of ensuring good dental health is to ensure the fluoridation of water ? That has been proved to be safe in therapeutic doses

Fodd bynnag , oni chytunwch mai un o'r ffyrdd mwyaf effeithiol o sicrhau iechyd deintyddol da yw sicrhau bod y dŵr wedi ei fflworideiddio ? Profwyd bod hynny'n ddiogel mewn dognau therapiwtig

The Minister for Environment , Planning and Countryside ( Carwyn Jones ) : I can inform the Chamber that , subject to the First Minister's agreement , the issue of fluoridation will be delegated to the Minister for Health and Social Services , as it is a health issue

Y Gweinidog dros yr Amgylchedd , Cynllunio a Chefn Gwlad ( Carwyn Jones ) : Gallaf hysbysu'r Siambr y bydd mater fflworideiddio , os bydd y Prif Weinidog yn cytuno , yn cael ei ddirprwyo i'r Gweinidog dros Iechyd a Gwasanaethau Cymdeithasol , gan mai mater iechyd ydyw

Glyn Davies : There are two matters with which I wish to associate the Conservative Party : first , we welcome the motion that is before us today , and , secondly , we too are concerned about the issue that others have raised , which relates to the delegation of powers , and we look forward to a detailed debate on fluoridation in Committee and , eventually , in the Chamber

Glyn Davies : Mae dau fater y dymunaf gysylltu'r Blaid Geidwadol â hwy : yn gyntaf , yr ydym yn croesawu'r cynnig sydd ger ein bron heddiw , ac , yn ail , yr ydym ninnau'n bryderus ynghylch y mater y mae eraill wedi'i godi , sy'n gysylltiedig â'r pwerau a ddirprwyir , ac edrychwn ymlaen at gael dadl fanwl ar fflworideiddio yn y Pwyllgor ac , yn y pen draw , yn y Siambr

Will the Minister assure us that we will have a full public debate on fluoridation in Wales after we have successfully delegated the functions of the Water Act 2003 ?

A wnaiff y Gweinidog ein sicrhau y cawn ddadl gyhoeddus lawn ar fflworideiddio yng Nghymru wedi inni ddirprwyo swyddogaethau Deddf Dwr 2003 yn llwyddiannus ?

Mick Bates : The Welsh Liberal Democrats are in favour of delegating this power and are mindful that we need scientific evidence on fluoridation

Mick Bates : Mae Democratiaid Rhyddfrydol Cymru o blaid dirprwyo'r pwer hwn ac yr ydym yn ymwybodol bod arnom angen tystiolaeth wyddonol ar fflworideiddio

Jane Hutt : The National Assembly now has the powers to consider the issue of fluoridation , which is important

Jane Hutt : Mae gan y Cynulliad Cenedlaethol bwerau yn awr i ystyried fflworideiddio , sy'n bwysig

Finally , a separate set of regulations will be brought forward under this Act with regard to fluoridation

Yn olaf , caiff cyfres ar wahân o reoliadau eu cyflwyno o dan y Ddeddf hon yng nghyd-destun fflworideiddio

Fluoridation is one of them and the general contribution of dental care to general health such as the detection of oral cancer is an excellent example --

Fflworideiddio yw un ohonynt ac mae cyfraniad cyffredinol gofal deintyddol at iechyd cyffredinol , fel darganfod canser geneuol , yn enghraifft ragorol --

It is important that children and their families adopt healthy lifestyle practices , such as a balanced diet and regular tooth brushing with fluoride toothpaste

Mae'n bwysig bod plant a'u teuluoedd yn arddel arferion iach yn eu ffordd o fyw , megis dilyn deiet cytbwys a glanhau dannedd yn rheolaidd gyda phast dannedd sy'n cynnwys fflworid

There is a need for targeting and building on that progress , but many things are included in the healthy schools initiative , promoted by my colleague , Jane Davidson , to encourage healthy eating in schools and the use of fluoride toothpaste and so on

Mae angen targedu ac adeiladu ar y cynnydd hwnnw , ond cynhwysir llawer o bethau yn y fenter ysgolion iach , a hyrwyddir gan fy nghyd-Aelod , Jane Davidson , i annog bwyta'n iach mewn ysgolion ac i annog y defnydd o bast dannedd fflworid ac ati

Kirsty Williams : I think that it is no coincidence that two spokespeople from Plaid Cymru have today cited the English West Midlands as having good levels of dental health -- water fluoridation exists in that area

Kirsty Williams : Credaf nad yw'n gyd-ddigwyddiad bod dau o lefarwyr Plaid Cymru wedi cyfeirio heddiw at orllewin canolbarth Lloegr fel man sydd â lefelau iechyd deintyddol da -- mae dŵr yn cael ei fflworideiddio yn yr ardal honno

What would your view be on water fluoridation as a means of achieving this ?

Beth yw'ch barn am fflworideiddio dŵr fel modd i gyflawni hynny ?

Plaid Cymru is against fluoridation of the water suppl ; we believe that prevention is better than cure and that we need more dentists and a focused dental health promotion effort rather than mass medication

Mae Plaid Cymru yn gwrthwynebu fflworideiddio'r cyflenwad dw ; credwn fod atal yn well na gwella a bod arnom angen rhagor o ddeintyddion ac ymgyrch benodol i hybu iechyd deintyddol yn hytrach na meddyginiaethu torfol

Our publication on children from birth to five years of age , which , I believe , all new mothers receive from their health visitor , contains a section on teeth that covers issues such as fluoride , diet and tooth care and so on , and some Cymorth projects also include oral health programmes

Mae ein cyhoeddiad ar blant o'u geni hyd eu pum mlwydd oed , y credaf fod yr holl famau newydd yn ei gael gan eu hymwelydd iechyd , yn cynnwys adran ar ddannedd sy'n ymdrin â materion fel fflworid , deiet a phydredd dannedd ac yn y blaen , ac mae rhai o brosiectau Cymorth yn cynnwys rhaglenni iechyd geneuol hefyd

What consideration have you given to taking care of other aspects of health , such as the possibility of adding fluoride to the water ?

Pa ystyriaeth a roddasoch i ofalu am bob agwedd arall ar iechyd , megis y posibilrwydd o ychwanegu ffl ?orid i'r dŵr ?

Jane Hutt : Although we may be given powers regarding fluoridation , we would first have to undertake wide public consultation

Jane Hutt : Er y gallem gael pwerau o ran fflworideiddio , byddai'n rhaid inni gynnal ymgynghoriad cyhoeddus eang yn gyntaf

There are reports from the University of York and the Medical Research Council that consider the evidence for fluoridation as an important , effective method of protecting the population from tooth decay

Ceir adroddiadau o Brifysgol Caerefrog a'r Cyngor Ymchwil Meddygol sy'n ystyried y dystiolaeth o blaid fflworideiddio fel dull pwysig ac effeithiol o ddiogelu'r boblogaeth rhag pydredd dannedd
