Mae’r gwiriwr cymhwysedd ar\-lein wedi ail\-agor heddiw a bydd busnesau yn gallu gwneud ceisiadau am gymorth o’r cam hwn o’r gronfa erbyn diwedd y mis.


Mae’r Gronfa wedi’i chynllunio i gefnogi busnesau, mentrau cymdeithasol ac elusennau, nad ydynt yn gymwys am gynlluniau cymorth eraill Llywodraeth y DU.


Bydd cam nesaf y gronfa yn galluogi busnesau i gael mynediad at £10 miliwn yn ychwanegol o gymorth ariannol. Caiff ei dargedu at microfusnesau, BBaChau a busnesau mawr o bwysigrwydd economaidd hanfodol, sydd heb dderbyn cymorth hyd yma gan y Gronfa Cadernid Economaidd.


Meddai Ken Skates, Gweinidog yr Economi, Trafnidiaeth a Gogledd Cymru:



> Mae ein pecyn o gymorth ar gyfer busnesau o Gymru wedi bod yn hollol hanfodol i gefnogi miloedd o gwmnïau drwy’r cyfnod hynod anodd hwn.
> 
> 
> Mae bron £200 miliwn bellach wedi’i ddarparu i fusnesau o’r Gronfa Cadernid Economaidd gyda phob cais sydd wedi ei brosesu.
> 
> 
> Rydyn ni heddiw yn ail\-agor ein gwiriwr cymhwysedd ar gyfer cam nesaf y cyllid. Bydd hyn yn rhoi amser i gwmnïau baratoi eu ceisiadau, cyn i’r gronfa ail\-agor ar gyfer ceisiadau ar ddiwedd y mis.
> 
> 
> Mae’r mesurau yr ydyn ni wedi’u cymryd yn ychwanegol i’r cymorth sydd ar gael gan Lywodraeth y DU, gan wneud ein pecyn y pecyn mwyaf cynhwysfawr a hael yn y DU.
> 
> 
> Bydd y cam nesaf yn cyrraedd busnesau sydd heb dderbyn cyllid hyd yn hyn, ond rydym yn gwybod na fydd yn cyrraedd pawb sydd mewn angen. Rydyn ni’n gweithio’n broactif ar opsiynau pellach, ond mae’n amlwg bod angen i Lywodraeth y DU gamu i mewn a darparu’r cyllid mwy hirdymor ac ychwanegol sydd ei angen i fynd â busnesau Cymru drwy’r pandemig hwn.


Bydd y cam diweddaraf hwn yn gweithredu yn yr un modd â’r cam cyntaf mwy neu lai ond gan ddiweddaru pwy sy’n gymwys ar gyfer y cynllun micro. Bydd hyn yn galluogi cwmnïau cyfyngedig nad ydynt wedi cofrestru gyda TAW i gael mynediad at y gronfa, ar yr amod bod y meini prawf eraill yn cael eu bodloni.


Mae’n bosibl y bydd busnesau mawr, sydd wedi gweld gostyngiad o dros 60% mewn trosiant ers 1 Mawrth 2020 hefyd yn gymwys ar gyfer cyllid os ydynt yn bodloni amodau eraill. Mae £10 miliwn yn ychwanegol wedi bod ar gael drwy’r Gronfa Cadernid Economaidd i gefnogi cwmnïau mwy.


Hyd yma, mae bron £200 miliwn o gyllid y Gronfa Cadernid Economaidd wedi ei ddosbarthu i gwmnïau ledled Cymru, gan gefnogi ystod eang o fusnesau i ddelio gydag effaith y coronafeirws.


Mae hyn yn cynnwys elfen cynllun benthyca Banc Datblygu Cymru y gronfa, sydd wedi gweld dros £90 miliwn yn cael ei fuddsoddi mewn dros 1,300 o gwmnïau.


Mae’r gwaith yn parhau i ddatblygu rhagor o opsiynau i gefnogi’r busnesau hyn, nad ydynt wedi gallu derbyn cymorth hyd yn hyn, megis cwmnïau newydd sydd ddim yn gymwys ar gyfer Cynllun Cymorth Incwm Llywodraeth y DU i’r Hunangyflogedig.


Gwiriwch a ydych yn gymwys ar gyfer Cronfa Cadernid Economaidd COVID\-19.

The online eligibility checker has reopened today and businesses will be able to make applications for support from this phase of the fund by the end of the month.


The ERF is designed to support businesses, social enterprises and charities, which are not eligible for other Welsh Government and UK Government support schemes.


The next phase of the fund will enable businesses to access a further £100 million of financial support. It is being targeted at microbusinesses, SMEs and large businesses of critical economic importance, which have yet to receive financial assistance from the ERF.


Economy, Transport and North Wales Minister Ken Skates said:



> Our package of support for Welsh business has been absolutely vital in supporting thousands of firms through these exceptionally difficult times.
> 
> 
> Close to £200 million has now been provided to businesses from the Economic Resilience Fund with all applications being processed.
> 
> 
> We are today reopening our eligibility checker for the next phase of funding. This will allow companies time to prepare their applications, ahead of the fund reopening for applications at the end of the month.
> 
> 
> The measures we have taken are in addition to the support available from the UK Government, making our package the most comprehensive and generous in the UK.
> 
> 
> This next phase will reach businesses, which have yet to receive funding, but we know it won’t reach all those in need. We are proactively working on further options, but it is clear we need the UK Government to step up and provide the longer\-term and additional funding needed to see Welsh business through this pandemic.


This latest phase will operate in broadly the same way as the first phase but with an update to the eligibility of the micro scheme. This will enable limited companies which are not VAT registered to access the fund, subject to other criteria being met.


Large businesses, which have suffered more than a 60% reduction of turnover since 1 March 2020 may also qualify for funding if they meet other conditions. A further £10 million has been available from the ERF to support larger firms.


To date, almost £200 million of ERF funding has been distributed to companies across Wales, supporting a wide variety of businesses to deal with the impact of coronavirus.


This includes the Development Bank of Wales’ loan scheme element of the fund which has seen more than £90 million offered or invested in 1,300\-plus firms.


Work is continuing to develop further options to support those businesses, which have not yet been able to access help, such as start\-up firms not eligible for the UK Government’s Self Employment Income Support Scheme.
