The increased burdens as a result of the UK Government’s approach to exiting the EU has caused hauliers to avoid the “land bridge” between the Republic of Ireland and the continent, with more ferries being put on routes direct from the EU to Ireland.


There are also reports that freight traffic which used to travel between Wales and northern Ireland via the Republic of Ireland, is now rerouting through the north of England or Scotland direct to northern Ireland or is not travelling at all.


Low levels of traffic were expected at the start of the month, but as we near the end of the month reductions of between 50% to 70% is of concern.


Ken Skates said:



> “Welsh Government is committed to doing what we can to help businesses navigate and become confident with new border processes which have resulted from the choices the UK Government made about how to leave the EU. These processes are not teething troubles, they are the permanent consequence of the UK Government’s choices.

> “The systems involved are the responsibility of the UK Government, and we need to see detailed support and training to make sure businesses and hauliers are confident using new border processes to keep goods moving as efficiently and effectively as possible.

> 
> “Reports of the loss of the northern Ireland freight transit represents a concern that the processes which UK Government have put in place are not sufficient to prevent disruption to traffic between northern Ireland and Wales, which is unacceptable.

> “I have written today to the UK Government to ask what their plan is for reversing this consistent reduction in Welsh ports. They must also outline how they propose to compensate those communities most impacted by the policy approach they have chosen.

Oherwydd y beichiau cynyddol a ddaeth yn sgil penderfyniadau Llywodraeth y DU ynghylch sut i ymadael â’r UE, mae cwmnïau cludo bellach yn osgoi’r “bont dir” rhwng Gweriniaeth Iwerddon a’r cyfandir ac mae mwy a mwy o fferïau yn hwylio’n syth o’r UE i Iwerddon.


Ceir adroddiadau hefyd bod traffig a arferai deithio o Gymru i ogledd Iwerddon trwy Weriniaeth Iwerddon nawr yn teithio trwy ogledd Lloegr neu’r Alban yn syth i ogledd Iwerddon os ydyn nhw’n mynd o gwbl.


Roeddem yn disgwyl y byddai’r llif traffig yn isel ar ddechrau’r mis ond gyda diwedd y mis ar ein gwarthaf, mae’r gostyngiadau o rhwng 50% i 70% yn destun pryder.


Dywedodd Ken Skates:



> “Mae Llywodraeth Cymru wedi ymrwymo i wneud popeth a all i helpu busnesau i gynefino a dod i ddeall y prosesau newydd ar y ffin sy’n ganlyniad i’r dewisiadau a wnaeth Llywodraeth y DU ynghylch sut i adael yr UE. Nid problemau cychwynnol mo’r prosesau hyn, nhw yw canlyniadau parhaol penderfyniadau Llywodraeth y DU.

> “Cyfrifoldeb Llywodraeth y DU yw’r systemau hyn, ac mae angen hyfforddiant a chefnogaeth i wneud yn siŵr bod busnesau a chwmnïau cludo’n hyderus wrth ddefnyddio’r prosesau newydd ar y ffin i gadw nwyddau i symud mor effeithiol ac effeithlon â phosibl.

> “Mae’r sôn bod llai o gludiant nwyddau i ogledd Iwerddon yn creu pryderon nad yw’r prosesau y mae Llywodraeth y DU wedi’u rhoi yn eu lle yn ddigon i beidio ag amharu ar y traffig rhwng gogledd Iwerddon a Chymru ac mae hynny’n annerbyniol.
