There have been a disappointing number of responses to the Welsh Government’s consultation so far, and the Cabinet Secretary is keen for farmers to have their say on an issue so important to the industry.   
  
In October, the Cabinet Secretary launched a public consultation on a proposed regionalised response to eliminate Bovine TB.   
  
As part of the plans Low, Intermediate and High TB Areas will be established across Wales based on bovine TB incidence levels. Each area will have a tailored approach to reflect the varying disease conditions and risks.   
  
The consultation asks anyone with an interest to give their views on the measures to be applied to protect the Low TB Area and to reduce disease in the Intermediate and High TB Areas.  
  
This includes:

* introducing a mandatory Informed Purchasing Scheme to help farmers make informed decisions about the health of the cattle they wish to purchase
* imposing compensation penalties for cattle moved within a multi\-site restricted holding
* reducing the TB compensation cap to £5,000, which would not affect the majority of farmers but would result in around £300,000 a year savings.

In addition, the Cabinet Secretary announced individual action plans for each long term breakdown herd aimed at clearing up infection. These would be developed in partnership with farmers, vets and the Animal and Plant Health Agency (APHA).   
  
Not all of these long term breakdowns will involve badgers, but where it can be objectively proven badgers are responsible for the transmission of the disease, it is proposed the infected groups of badgers are trapped and humanely killed. This would be based on lessons learned from a pilot in Northern Ireland.   
  
The Cabinet Secretary said:  

> “We are now three quarters of the way through our 12 week consultation on a refreshed TB Eradication Programme and I am disappointed with the fact only 18 individuals have responded so far.
> 
> “In recent events I have been approached by farmers expressing strong views on our proposals so this is clearly a very important issue to the industry. I am therefore surprised at the low response rate.
> 
> “We welcome views on all aspects of the proposals and want anyone affected by this issue to come forward and have their say before the consultation closes in just three weeks time. All responses will be considered before a refreshed TB Eradication Programme is introduced in the spring.”

The consultation closes on the 10th January.  You can have your say on the consultation here: https://consultations.gov.wales/consultations/refreshed\-tb\-eradication\-programme.

Mae’r nifer sydd wedi ymateb i ymgynghoriad Llywodraeth Cymru hyd yn hyn wedi bod yn siomedig ac mae Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet yn awyddus bod ffermwyr yn dweud eu dweud am bwnc sydd mor bwysig i’r diwydiant.   
  
Ym mis Hydref, lansiodd Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet ymgynghoriad cyhoeddus ar y cynllun rhanbartholi sy’n cael ei gynnig ar gyfer dileu TB Gwartheg.   
  
Fel rhan o hwnnw, caiff ardaloedd TB Isel, TB Canolradd a TB Uchel eu sefydlu ar draws Cymru ar sail nifer yr achosion o TB gwartheg.  Bydd pob ardal yn cael ei ffordd arbennig ei hun o ddelio â TB, gan ddibynnu ar yr amodau a’r risgiau yn yr ardal honno.   
  
Mae’r ymgynghoriad yn gofyn i bawb sydd â diddordeb fynegi barn am y mesurau ar gyfer diogelu Ardaloedd TB Isel a lleihau’r achosion o’r clefyd yn yr Ardaloedd Canolradd ac Uchel.   
  
Bydd hynny’n cynnwys:

* cyflwyno Cynllun Prynu Doeth gorfodol i helpu ffermwyr i wneud penderfyniadau sy’n seiliedig ar ffeithiau ynghylch iechyd y gwartheg y maen nhw am eu prynu
* gosod cosbau ar yr iawndal a delir ar gyfer gwartheg sy’n cael eu symud o fewn daliad aml\-safle sydd o dan gyfyngiadau
* gostwng y cap ar iawndal TB i £5,000\.  Ni fydd hyn yn effeithio ar y rhan fwyaf o ffermwyr ond bydd yn arbed rhyw £300,000 y flwyddyn.

Hefyd, cyhoeddodd Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet gynlluniau ar gyfer paratoi cynlluniau gweithredu unigol ar gyfer pob buches sydd â hanes hir o TB er mwyn clirio’r haint. Y bwriad yw datblygu’r cynlluniau hyn ar y cyd â ffermwyr, milfeddygon a’r Asiantaeth Iechyd Anifeiliaid a Phlanhigion (APHA).   
  
Nid yw moch daear yn gysylltiedig â phob achos tymor hir o TB ond lle ceir prawf mai moch daear sy’n gyfrifol am drosglwyddo’r clefyd, cynigir bod y grwpiau heintiedig o foch daear yn cael eu trapio a’u lladd yn ddi\-boen.  Bydd hyn yn dilyn y gwersi a ddysgwyd yn ystod y peilot yng Ngogledd Iwerddon.   
  
Meddai Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet:   

> “Rydym bellach tri chwarter o’r ffordd trwy ymgynghoriad 12 wythnos ar adfywio’r Rhaglen Dileu TB ac rwy’n siomedig mai dim ond 18 o unigolion sydd wedi ymateb hyd yma.
> 
> "Mewn digwyddiadau diweddar, mae ffermwyr wedi bod yn dod ata i gan ddweud eu barn yn groch am y cynigion, felly mae’n amlwg ei fod yn bwnc pwysig iawn i’r diwydiant. Testun syndod felly yw’n bod wedi cael cyn lleied o ymatebion. 
> 
> “Byddwn yn falch o glywed barn am bob agwedd ar y cynigion a hoffem weld pawb y mae’r pwnc wedi effeithio arnyn nhw yn dod i ddweud eu dweud cyn i’r ymgynghoriad gau mewn cwta dair wythnos. Byddwn yn ystyried pob ymateb cyn cyflwyno Rhaglen Dileu TB ddiwygiedig yn y gwanwyn.”
