Minister Julie James today said the Welsh Government was ‘keeping communities safe from the growing risk of climate change’ as she confirmed record levels of funding for flood risk management.

Speaking in the Senedd, the Climate Change Minister confirmed a £75m investment as she published the Flood and Coastal Erosion Risk Management Programme for 2023\-24.

The money will be given to Risk Management Authorities to reduce flood and coastal risk across Wales.

Flooding protection forms a key part of both the Programme for Government and the Co\-operation Agreement with Plaid Cymru.

The Programme for Government includes an ambitious target to provide increased flood protection to more than 45,000 Welsh homes and a commitment to expand natural flood management approaches which will to help tackle the climate and nature emergencies. The Co\-operation Agreement includes a joint commitment to invest more in flood management and mitigation and plan to respond to the increased risk of flooding.

Announcing the funding, the Minister said:


> There can be no doubt that this investment is required.
> 
> Recent reports by the International Panel on Climate Change, and the UK Climate Change Committee have reiterated the need for continued investment in mitigation, adaptation and resilience to respond to global warming challenges.
> 
> We know that the impact of flooding would have been worse, were it not for our network of defences and the tireless work of our Risk Management Authorities.
> 
> That is why we continue to provide record levels of investment, to provide our Risk Management Authorities with the means to construct and maintain the infrastructure we rely on to keep our communities safe from the challenges posed by climate change.

Designated Member Sian Gwenllian MS said:


> This record investment is one important strand of work being progressed through the Co\-operation Agreement to protect communities, homes and business across Wales.
> 
> As our climate changes, the chances of floods has increased and in recent years we have all seen the awful impact this can have on people’s lives.
> 
> As well as taking action today to strengthen flood defences, we are also working together with a view to the medium to long term. Alongside confirmation of funding for flood defences for 2023\-24, we have commissioned Professor Elwen Evans to conduct an independent review into Section 19 and NRW flooding and the National Infrastructure Commission is looking at how the nationwide likelihood of flooding can be minimised by 2050\.

Dywedodd y Gweinidog Julie James heddiw bod Llywodraeth Cymru'n 'cadw cymunedau'n ddiogel rhag risg cynyddol newid hinsawdd' wrth iddi gadarnhau'r lefelau uchaf erioed o gyllid ar gyfer gwaith rheoli risg llifogydd.


Wrth siarad yn y Senedd, cadarnhaodd y Gweinidog Newid Hinsawdd fuddsoddiad gwerth £75m wrth iddi gyhoeddi’r Rhaglen Rheoli Perygl Llifogydd ac Erydu Arfordirol ar gyfer 2023\-24.


Bydd yr arian yn cael ei roi i Awdurdodau Rheoli Risg i leihau'r risg o lifogydd ac erydu arfordirol ledled Cymru.


Mae gwarchod rhag llifogydd yn rhan allweddol o'r Rhaglen lywodraethu a'r Cytundeb Cydweithio â Phlaid Cymru.


Mae'r Rhaglen Lywodraethu'n cynnwys targed uchelgeisiol i ddarparu mwy o ddiogelwch rhag llifogydd i fwy na 45,000 o gartrefi yng Nghymru ac ymrwymiad i ehangu dulliau naturiol o reoli llifogydd a fydd yn helpu i fynd i’r afael â’r argyfyngau natur. Mae'r Cytundeb Cydweithio yn cynnwys ymrwymiad ar y cyd i fuddsoddi mwy mewn gwaith rheoli a lliniaru llifogydd a chynllunio i ymateb i'r risg gynyddol o lifogydd.


Wrth gyhoeddi'r cyllid, dywedodd y Gweinidog:



> Does dim amheuaeth bod angen y buddsoddiad yma.
> 
> 
> Mae adroddiadau diweddar gan y Panel Rhyngwladol ar Newid Hinsawdd, a Phwyllgor Newid Hinsawdd y DU wedi ailadrodd yr angen am fuddsoddiad parhaus mewn camau lliniaru, addasu a gwydnwch i ymateb i heriau cynhesu byd\-eang.
> 
> 
> Ry'n ni'n gwybod y byddai effaith llifogydd wedi bod yn waeth oni bai am ein rhwydwaith ni o amddiffynfeydd a gwaith diflino ein Hawdurdodau Rheoli Risg.
> 
> 
> Dyna pam rydym yn parhau i ddarparu'r lefelau uchaf erioed o fuddsoddiad, er mwyn galluogi ein Hawdurdodau Rheoli Risg i adeiladu a chynnal yr isadeiledd rydym yn dibynnu arno i gadw ein cymunedau'n ddiogel rhag yr heriau a achosir gan newid hinsawdd.


Dywedodd yr Aelod Dynodedig, Sian Gwenllian AS:



> Mae’r buddsoddiad mwyaf erioed hwn yn agwedd bwysig ar waith sy’n mynd rhagddo fel rhan o’r Cytundeb Cydweithio er mwyn ddiogelu cymunedau, cartrefi a busnesau ledled Cymru.
> 
> 
> Wrth i'n hinsawdd newid, mae risg llifogydd wedi cynyddu a thros y blynyddoedd diwethaf rydym oll wedi gweld yr effaith ofnadwy y gall hyn ei chael ar fywydau pobl.
> 
> 
> Yn ogystal â chymryd camau heddiw i atgyfnerthu amddiffynfeydd llifogydd, rydym hefyd yn cydweithio tuag at y tymor canol i’r hirdymor. Yn ogystal â’r cadarnhad o gyllid ar gyfer amddiffynfeydd llifogydd yn 2023\-24, rydym wedi comisiynu’r Athro Elwen Evans i gynnal adolygiad annibynnol o Adran 19 ac mae CNC a’r Comisiwn Seilwaith Cenedlaethol yn ystyried sut y gellir lleihau tebygrwydd llifogydd ar draws y wlad erbyn 2050\.
