Mae APD wedi'i datganoli i'r Alban ac yn rhannol i Ogledd Iwerddon ond mae'n dal i fod o dan reolaeth Llywodraeth y DU yng Nghymru. 

Mae Llywodraeth Cymru wedi dadlau ers tro y dylai fod ganddi bwerau dros APD, gan ei galluogi i ddenu mwy o deithiau hedfan i Gymru. 

Ond mae Gweinidogion y Du wedi dweud y byddai'n rhoi mantais annheg i Gaerdydd dros feysydd awyr rhanbarthol eraill y DU. Mae'r pryderon hyn wedi cael eu chwalu gan ymchwil annibynnol.

A hithau'n siarad cyn ei sesiwn yn y Pwyllgor Materion Cymreig, dywedodd y Gweinidog Cyllid Rebecca Evans:


> “Er gwaethaf galwadau cyson gan Lywodraeth Cymru i Lywodraeth y DU ynghylch APD, nid oes penderfyniad wedi'i wneud eto. Mae'r Alban, Gogledd Iwerddon a Lloegr i gyd yn rheoli APD i raddau amrywiol \- nid oes unrhyw gyfiawnhad o gwbl dros drin Cymru'n wahanol.
> 
> “Mae cefnogaeth unfrydol o blaid datganoli APD i Gymru o du'r sectorau awyrennau, twristiaeth a busnes yng Nghymru ac mae'n bryd i Lywodraeth y DU roi'r gorau i lusgo ei thraed a newid ei safbwynt a hynny ar frys.”

Y mis diwethaf cyflwynodd Gweinidog yr Economi a Thrafnidiaeth Ken Skates ddatganiad oddi wrth Gyngor Datblygu'r Economi i'r Pwyllgor Materion Cymreig, sy'n cynnal ymchwiliad ynghylch APD, o blaid datganoli'r dreth i Gymru. 

Dywedodd Ken Skates:


> “Mae methiant Llywodraeth y DU i ddatganoli APD yn parhau i osod cyfyngiadau na ellir eu cyfiawnhau ar ein gallu i hyrwyddo Cymru i farchnadoedd tramor a chefnogi twf yn y sector awyrofod a'r economi ehangach.
> 
> “Rydyn ni am i Lywodraeth y DU weld bod datganoli APD yn gyfle yn hytrach nag yn rhwystr. Byddai datganoli'r dreth yn dod â budd mawr i Faes Awyr Caerdydd, i Gymru a'r DU.”

Mae datganoli APD i Gymru yn gyson â pholisi Llywodraeth y DU o gefnogi'r sector awyrennau i wneud cyfraniad sylweddol at dwf economaidd y wlad ac economi'r DU ac mae'n cyd\-fynd â threthi eraill sydd wedi cael eu datganoli i Gymru.







Translation:


 
APD has been fully devolved to Scotland and in part to Northern Ireland but it remains under the control of the UK government in Wales. 

The Welsh Government has long argued it should have powers over APD, enabling it to attract more flights to Wales. 

But UK ministers have said it would give Cardiff an unfair advantage over other regional UK airports. These concerns have been debunked by independent research. 

Speaking ahead of her session at the Welsh Affairs Committee, Finance Minister Rebecca Evans said:


> “Despite the Welsh Government’s repeated calls to the UK Government about APD, a decision has still not been made. Scotland, Northern Ireland and England all control APD to different extents – there is no justification for Wales being treated differently.
> 
> “There is unanimous support for the devolution of APD to Wales from aviation, tourism and business sectors in Wales and it’s time the UK government stopped stalling and changed its position as a matter of urgency.”

Last month the Economy and Transport Minister Ken Skates submitted a statement from the Council for Economic Development to the Welsh Affairs Committee, which is conducting an inquiry about APD, in support of devolving the tax to Wales.  

Ken Skates said:


> “The UK government's failure to devolve APD continues to place unjustifiable constraints on our ability to promote Wales to overseas markets and support growth in the aviation sector and wider economy.
> 
> “We want the UK government to stop seeing devolution of APD as a barrier and more of an opportunity. Devolution would be a win for Cardiff Airport; for Wales and for the UK.”

The devolution of APD to Wales is consistent with the UK government’s policy of supporting the aviation sector to make a significant contribution to the economic growth of the country and the UK economy and aligns with other taxes, which have been devolved to Wales.
