Yn unol â’r cytundeb ar gysylltiadau rhyngsefydliadol, hoffem eich hysbysu bod cyfarfod o’r Grŵp Rhyngweinidogol ar yr amgylchedd, bwyd a materion gwledig wedi’i gynnal ar 17 Ebrill 2023\.


Cadeiriwyd y cyfarfod gan Mark Spencer AS y DU, y Gweinidog Bwyd, Ffermio a Physgodfeydd. Hefyd yn bresennol yr oedd Alistair Jack, AS y DU, Ysgrifennydd Gwladol yr Alban; James Davies AS y DU, Is\-Ysgrifennydd Gwladol Seneddol Cymru; Mairi Gougeon ASA, Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet dros Faterion Gwledig, Diwygio Tir a’r Ynysoedd; Lorna Slater ASA, Gweinidog Sgiliau Gwyrdd, yr Economi Gylchol a Bioamrywiaeth; a Norman Fulton, y Dirprwy Ysgrifennydd Bwyd, Grŵp Ffermio DAERA yn absenoldeb y Gweinidog dros Ogledd Iwerddon a’r Ysgrifennydd Parhaol.


Rydym am fynegi unwaith eto ein siom a’n rhwystredigaeth nad oedd yr Ysgrifennydd Gwladol yn bresennol. Mae ei diffyg presenoldeb wedi gostwng ansawdd y cysylltiad rhyngom dros y chwe mis diwethaf, felly rydym wedi rhoi gwybod i’r cyfarfod na fydd Llywodraeth Cymru yn bresennol yn yr un nesaf os na fydd yr Ysgrifennydd Gwladol hefyd yn bresennol.                                                                 


Trafodwyd y Cynllun Dychwelyd Ernes. Roeddem wedi disgwyl diweddariad gan Defra ar hynt cais Llywodraeth yr Alban am gael eu heithrio o Ddeddf y Farchnad Fewnol, ond ni chafwyd mohono. Pwysodd Llywodraeth yr Alban fod yr eithriad yn fater o frys.


Trafodwyd wedyn y gwaith sy’n mynd rhagddo ar Gyfraith yr UE a Ddargedwir a phwysleisiwyd yr angen am drafodaeth drylwyr a phroses gydsynio gytûn.


Yna siaradwyd am y prinderau bwyd diweddar a phroblemau ynghylch diogelu cyflenwadau bwyd. Er bod y cyflenwadau yn ôl fel roedden nhw, mae gennym bryderon o hyd ynghylch diogelwch cyflenwadau yn yr hirdymor oherwydd y pwysau ar y farchnad lafur, y rhyfel yn Wcráin a’r newid yn yr hinsawdd. Cytunwyd i barhau i gydweithio ar hyn tua’r dyfodol.


Yna cawsom ddiweddariad gan Defra ar Fframwaith Windsor a sut y byddai’n effeithio ar ein portffolio.  Gwnaethon ni drafod pryderon ynghylch y ffaith bod angen i fusnesau wneud newidiadau erbyn 1 Hydref.


Yn olaf, roedd nifer o eitemau o dan ‘unrhyw fater arall’ gan gynnwys Partneriaeth Amaeth y DU, y Bil Rheoli Cymorthdaliadau, Cytundeb Partneriaeth Gynhwysfawr a Blaengar y Môr Tawel, y cytundeb fframwaith pysgodfeydd diweddar ag Ynysoedd Ffaro a chynllun Lloegr ar gyfer tagio gwartheg.


Cynhelir y cyfarfod nesaf ddydd Llun, 22 Mai.


Caiff hysbysiad am y cyfarfod ei gyhoeddi ar wefan Llywodraeth Cymru yn https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/communique\-from\-the\-inter\-ministerial\-group\-for\-environment\-food\-and\-rural\-affairs. (Saesneg yn Unig).

In accordance with the inter\-institutional relations agreement, we wish to notify you a meeting of the Inter\- Ministerial Group for environment, Food and Rural Affairs was held on 17 April 2023\.


The meeting was chaired by Mark Spencer MP, Minister for Food, Farming and Fisheries, Defra. The meeting was also attended by Alistair Jack MP, Secretary of State for Scotland; James Davies MP, Parliamentary Under–Secretary of State for Wales; Mairi Gougeon MSP, Cabinet Secretary for Rural Affairs, Land Reform and Islands; Lorna Slater MSP, Minister for Green Skills, Circular Economy and Biodiversity; and Norman Fulton, Deputy Secretary, Food, Farming Group DAERA in absence of Northern Ireland Minister and Permanent Secretary.


We again expressed our disappointment and frustration at the lack of attendance again by the Secretary of State. Due to the reduced quality of engagement over the last six months, we informed the meeting Welsh Government would not attend the next meeting if the Secretary of State did not attend.                                         


We discussed the Deposit Return Scheme. We had expected an update from Defra on the progress of Scottish Government’s request for an exclusion from the Internal Market Act, however this was not forthcoming. Scottish Government emphasised the urgency for this exclusion.


We then discussed the continuing work on Retained EU Law and emphasised the need for thorough engagement and an agreed consent process.


Following this we talked about the recent food shortages and issues around food security. While supply of produce is now back to normal levels, we still have concerns relating to long\-term food security due to the pressures on the labour market, the war in Ukraine, and climate change. We agreed to continue to collaborate on these issues going forward


Defra then provided an update on the Windsor Framework and how it will affect our portfolio. We discussed concerns regarding the need for businesses to make changes by 1 October.


Finally, there were a number of items of any other business, including the UK Agriculture Partnership, the Subsidy Control Bill, the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement Trans\-Pacific Partnership, the recent fisheries framework agreement with the Faroes Island and England’s plan relating to bovine IDs.


The next meeting will be held on Monday 22 May.


A communique regarding this meeting will be published on the UK Government website at https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/communique\-from\-the\-inter\-ministerial\-group\-for\-environment\-food\-and\-rural\-affairs.
