Mae’n annog pobl a sefydliadau i gynnig syniadau y gellid eu datblygu’n drethi newydd i Gymru. 

Mae Deddf Cymru 2014 yn rhoi’r pwerau i Lywodraeth Cymru i gyflwyno cynigion ar gyfer datblygu trethi newydd mewn meysydd lle mae’r cyfrifoldeb wedi’i ddatganoli. Byddai’n rhaid i’r cynigion hyn gael eu cymeradwyo gan y Cynulliad Cenedlaethol, gan Lywodraeth y Deyrnas Unedig a chan Dŷ’r Cyffredin a Thŷ’r Arglwyddi.

Mewn dadl yn y Senedd heddiw, bydd yr Ysgrifennydd Cyllid yn sôn am ei fwriad i brofi’r pwerau newydd yn Neddf Cymru a bydd yn cyfeirio at rai o’r syniadau am drethi sydd wedi’u cynnig yn barod gan Sefydliad Bevan. Mae’r rhain yn cynnwys syniadau ynghylch twristiaeth, deunyddiau pecynnu cludfwyd ac ariannu gofal cymdeithasol. 

Bydd yr Ysgrifennydd Cyllid yn awgrymu hefyd y gellid defnyddio trethi i newid ymddygiad neu i geisio lleihau gweithgareddau sy’n effeithio’n negyddol ar gymdeithas.  

Caiff y ddadl hon ei chynnal ar ôl i ddau Fil trethi gael eu pasio gan y Cynulliad Cenedlaethol \- biliau sy’n paratoi’r ffordd at gyflwyno dwy dreth ddatganoledig ym mis Ebrill 2018 \- sef y dreth trafodiadau tir sy’n disodli’r dreth stamp, a’r dreth gwarediadau tirlenwi sy’n disodli’r dreth dirlenwi.

Bydd yr Athro Drakeford yn dweud: 


> “Ymhen naw mis, bydd Llywodraeth Cymru yn codi ei threthi ei hunan, a hynny am y tro cyntaf ers bron 800 mlynedd yng Nghymru. Mae hyn yn nodi perthynas newydd rhwng Llywodraeth Cymru, y Cynulliad Cenedlaethol, trethdalwyr Cymru a gwasanaethau cyhoeddus datganoledig. 
> 
> “Mae’r pŵer i gynnig trethi newydd yn ddull pwysig y gallwn ei ddefnyddio i newid ymddygiad ac i sicrhau gwelliannau i’n cymunedau. Dyna pam rwy’n awyddus i gychwyn trafodaeth go iawn ynglŷn â sut rydyn ni am ddefnyddio’r pwerau hyn i gefnogi ein hymrwymiad i degwch, llesiant a thwf.
> 
> “Mae nifer o syniadau wedi’u cyflwyno’n barod yn adroddiad Sefydliad Bevan, Tax for Good. Cafwyd cynigion eraill hefyd ynglŷn â threthi newydd i gefnogi syniadau Cymreig, er enghraifft trethi i ariannu gofal cymdeithasol.
> 
> “Dewis arall fyddai inni ddefnyddio’r pwerau hyn i newid ymddygiad neu i leihau arferion negyddol, er enghraifft mynd i’r afael â bancio tir trwy godi ardoll ar dir nad yw’n cael ei ddefnyddio. Mae trethi newydd yn rhoi’r cyfle hefyd inni adeiladu ar gryfderau Cymru – er enghraifft gallem ystyried trethi sy’n ceisio cynyddu lefelau ailgylchu, neu dreth dwristiaeth efallai. 
> 
> “Rwy’n awyddus i ystyried pob syniad ac rwyf am gychwyn trafodaeth ynglŷn â threthi newydd – a hynny gyda phob plaid wleidyddol, gyda’r cyhoedd a chyda busnesau a sefydliadau ledled Cymru. Rwy’n annog pawb i gymryd rhan ac i rannu eu syniadau gyda ni er mwyn ein helpu i lunio trethi Cymru yn y dyfodol.”

 

Bydd rhestr o fer o syniadau ar gyfer trethi newydd i Gymru yn cael ei hystyried yn yr hydref.

He is urging people and organisations to come forward with ideas which could be developed into new Welsh taxes. 

The Wales Act 2014 provides the Welsh Government with powers to put forward proposals for the development of new taxes in areas of devolved responsibility. These proposals must be agreed by the National Assembly, UK Government and both the House of Commons and the House of Lords.

During a debate in the Senedd today, the Finance Secretary will outline his intention to test the new Wales Act powers and outline some of the tax ideas which have already been put forward by the Bevan Foundation. These include ideas around tourism and takeaway packaging and funding social care.   

The Finance Secretary will also suggest that taxation could be used to change behaviours or to discourage activity which has negative social impacts. 

The debate follows the passage of two tax Bills by the National Assembly for Wales, which pave the way for the introduction of two devolved taxes in April 2018 – land transaction tax, which replaces stamp duty land tax and landfill disposals tax, which replaces landfill tax.

Professor Drakeford will say: 


> “In nine months’ time the Welsh Government will raise our own taxes for the first time in almost 800 years. It marks a new relationship between the Welsh Government, the National Assembly, the Welsh taxpayer and devolved public services.
> 
> “The power to propose new taxes is an important lever, which we can use to change behaviours and deliver improvements for our communities. That is why I want to start a genuine debate about how we use these powers to support our commitment to fairness, wellbeing and growth. 
> 
> “A number of ideas have already been put forward in the Bevan Foundation’s report Tax for Good. Other ideas for new taxes to support Welsh ideas, such as a tax to fund social care have also been suggested. 
> 
> “Alternatively, we could use these powers to change behaviour or decrease negative practices, such as targeting land\-banking through a levy on unused land.  New taxes also presents us with an opportunity to build on Wales’ strengths, where we could consider taxes which aim to increase levels of recycling or perhaps look at a tourism tax.
> 
> “I am keen to consider all ideas and want to start a conversation around new taxes – with all political parties; with the public; businesses and organisations across Wales.  I urge everyone to get involved, share their ideas with us and help us shape future Welsh taxes.”

 A shortlist of ideas for new Welsh taxes will be considered in the autumn.
