Ers dechrau pandemig COVID\-19 rydym wedi gwneud pob ymdrech, ac wedi parhau i wneud pob ymdrech i gefnogi unigolion, busnesau a’n cymunedau, wrth inni ystyried nid yn unig ein hymateb brys, ond ein hadferiad economaidd hefyd.  


Ers dechrau’r pandemig rydym wedi rhoi cymorth gwerth dros £2\.5bn ar gyfer ein busnesau, mewn pecyn wedi’i gynllunio i adeiladu ar y cymorth a roddwyd gan Lywodraeth y DU. Mae hyn yn cynnwys grantiau gwerth dros £1\.75bn wedi’u darparu gan Lywodraeth Cymru mewn partneriaeth ag awdurdodau lleol. Drwy’r cymorth a roddwyd rydym wedi llwyddo i ddiogelu cannoedd o filoedd o swyddi yn yr adeg hynod anodd hon.


Gan adeiladu ar y rhyddhad ardrethi a roddwyd yn 2020/21 rydym hefyd wedi neilltuo £380 miliwn i roi rhyddhad ardrethi o 100% ar gyfer busnesau manwerthu, lletygarwch a hamdden am yr holl flwyddyn ariannol hon. Bydd hyn yn darparu cymorth ychwanegol ar gyfer tua 70,000 o fusnesau eleni.


Yn ystod y Cwestiynau Llafar ar 6 Mehefin dywedais y byddwn yn rhoi gwybodaeth am sut a ble y byddai dadansoddiad o’r cymorth a roddwyd i fusnesau yr effeithiwyd arnynt gan COVID\-19 yn cael ei gyhoeddi. Mae tri chyfnod cyntaf y Gronfa Cadernid Economaidd wedi cael eu cyhoeddi isod, a bydd manylion y ddwy Gronfa Benodol i Sectorau yn cael eu cyhoeddi yn ystod yr wythnosau nesaf, wedi’u dilyn gan fanylion y pecyn cyfredol yn yr haf.


* Y Gronfa Cadernid Economaidd 1 \- https://businesswales.gov.wales/cy/llywodraeth\-cymru\-cronfa\-cadernid\-economaidd\-sefydliadau\-ddyfarnwyd\-cam\-1
* Y Gronfa Cadernid Economaidd 2\- https://businesswales.gov.wales/cy/llywodraeth\-cymru\-cronfa\-cadernid\-economaidd\-sefydliadau\-ddyfarnwyd\-cam\-2


* Y Gronfa Cadernid Economaidd 3 \- https://businesswales.gov.wales/cy/llywodraeth\-cymru\-cronfa\-cadernid\-economaidd\-sefydliadau\-ddyfarnwyd\-cam\-3


Cydnabu Llywodraeth Cymru yr angen am rownd arall o’r Gronfa Cadernid Economaidd, wedi’i thargedu at fusnesau y mae cyfyngiadau COVID\-19 yn parhau i effeithio arnynt.  


Mae’r Gronfa Cadernid Economaidd yn darparu grantiau brys a grantiau pontio o hyd at  £25k ar gyfer busnesau cymwys i’w helpu i dalu eu costau gweithredu rhwng 1Mai 2021 a 30 Mehefin 2021\.


Y cymorth yw’r cam cyntaf o becyn £200 miliwn i helpu busnesau yr effeithiwyd arnynt gan y pandemig.


Wrth i’r cyfyngiadau gael eu codi’n raddol yn ystod yr wythnosau diwethaf, rydym wedi llwyddo i ailgysylltu a mwynhau rhagor o agweddau ar fywyd fel yr oeddem cyn COVID\-19 mewn modd diogel. Mae’r cynnydd hwn yn newyddion da ar gyfer yr economi.  


Fodd bynnag, mae’r amrywiolyn delta wedi golygu bod rhaid inni symud tuag at Lefel Rhybudd Un mewn modd graddol. Er nad oes amheuaeth mai dyma’r penderfyniad cywir ar gyfer Cymru, rydym yn cydnabod yr affaith y bydd yn cael ar nifer sylweddol o’n busnesau, yn benodol lleoliadau priodasau ac atyniadau dan do.


Rwy’n gallu cadarnhau ein bod yn rhoi rhagor y gymorth ar waith ar gyfer busnesau a fydd ar eu colled o ganlyniad i’n dull graddol o symud i Lefel Rhybudd Un. Bydd gan fusnesau cymwys fel atyniadau dan do a lleoliadau priodasau sydd â’r capasiti i gynnal digwyddiadau ar gyfer 30 o bobl neu fwy, neu sydd wedi parhau i fod ar gau oherwydd y cyfyngiadau, ac felly’n dioddef effeithiau uniongyrchol o ganlyniad i’r dull graddol hwn, yr hawl i gael taliad ychwanegol o rhwng £875 a £5000 yn dibynnu ar faint eu busnes a’u hamgylchiadau. Rydym yn disgwyl y bydd y busnesau hyn eisoes wedi gwneud cais am ein rownd ddiweddaraf o gyllid brys, ac rydym bellach wedi estyn y dyddiad cau i’r dydd Mercher hwn i wneud yn siŵr y bydd gan bob busnes cymwys lawer o amser i gyflwyno ei gais. Mae manylion llawn ar gael ar wefan Busnes Cymru.   


Mae ein cymorth COVID, wrth gwrs, yn ychwanegol at ein cymorth a chyngor craidd a ddarperir gan Fusnes Cymru, a’r cyllid a ddarperir ar ffurf benthyciadau gan Fanc Datblygu Cymru sy’n parhau i gefnogi busnesau ac entrepreneuriaid.

Bydd y Prif Weinidog yn rhoi diweddariad mewn perthynas â’r posibilrwydd o symud i Lefel Rhybudd Un yn hwyrach yr wythnos hon.

Since the beginning of the COVID\-19 pandemic our aim has been and continues to be supporting individuals, businesses and our communities, as we not only look at our emergency response but to our economic recovery.


Since the start of the Pandemic we have committed more than £2\.5bn in support for businesses to our businesses in a package designed to complement and build on the support provided by the UK Government. This includes more than £1\.75bn in grants worth delivered by the Welsh Government in partnership with local authorities. Through support provided we’ve been able to safeguard hundreds of thousands of jobs in these most difficult of times.


Building on rates relief provide in 20/21 we have also committed £380m to provide 100% rates relief scheme for retail, hospitality and leisure businesses will run for the full 12 months of this financial year, this will provide additional support for around 70,000 businesses this year.


During Oral questions on 6 June I committed to providing members with information of how and where a breakdown of support provided to businesses affected by COVID\-19 would be published.   The first three phases of Economic Resilience Fund have been published as below, and details of the two Sector Specific Funds will follow in the coming weeks followed by the current package in the summer.


* ERF 1 Phase 1 Awarded Organisations
* ERF 2 Phase 2 Awarded Organisations
* ERF 3 Phase 3 Awarded Organisations


The Welsh Government recognised the need for a further round of the Economic Resilience Fund targeted at businesses that continue to be affected by COVID\-19 restrictions.


The Economic Resilience Fund is providing emergency and transition grants of up to £25k to eligible businesses to help meet their operating costs for the period between 1 May 2021 and 30 June 2021\.


The support is the first phase of a £200m package to help businesses affected by the pandemic.


As restrictions have gradually been lifted over recent weeks, we have been able to reconnect and enjoy more aspects of life before COVID\-19 in a safe way. This progress is good news for our economy.


The delta variant however, has meant we need to take a phased approach to moving to Alert Level One. While this is absolutely the right decision for Wales, we recognise the impact it will have on a significant number of our businesses, particularly wedding venues and indoor attractions.


I can confirm that we are putting in place further funding for those businesses in Wales that are materially affected by our phased move to Alert Level One. Eligible businesses such as indoor attractions and wedding venues who have capacity for events of more than 30 or where they remain closed by the restrictions, thus directly impacted by a phased approach, will be entitled to an additional payment of between £875 and £5000 depending on their size and circumstance. We expect these businesses to have already applied to our latest round of emergency funding and have now extended the deadline to this Wednesday to make sure every eligible business has had plenty of time to submit their applications.


Full details are available on the Business Wales website.


Our Covid support is of course in addition to our core advisory support provided by Business Wales and loan based finance provided by Development Bank Wales that continue to support business and entrepreneurs across Wales.


The First Minister will provide an update regarding our potential move to Alert level One later this week.
