Mae'r ddeddf newydd, a gafodd ei phasio gan Senedd Cymru ym mis Ebrill, yn gwneud newidiadau mawr i'r fframwaith deddfwriaethol ac yn cyflymu'r broses gydsynio ar dir a môr.

Bydd yn mynd i'r afael mewn ffordd unedig â'r broses gydsynio gan roi cysondeb a sicrwydd i Gymru allu sicrhau, datblygu a denu rhagor o fuddsoddi mewn seilwaith.

Wrth selio ei Ddeddf gyntaf ers dechrau ar ei swydd, dywedodd y Prif Weinidog Vaughan Gething:


> *"Argyfwng yr hinsawdd yw'r her fwyaf sy'n ein hwynebu, felly rwy'n falch iawn y bydd y ddeddf newydd hon yn allweddol ar gyfer cyrraedd targedau ynni adnewyddadwy Llywodraeth Cymru.*
> 
> *"Wrth i ni symud tuag at allyriadau 'net sero' erbyn 2050, mae angen i ni weddnewid ein heconomi i bweru ffyniant gwyrdd. Bydd y ddeddf newydd hon yn ein galluogi i roi cydsyniad i brosiectau seilwaith mewn ffordd drylwyr a chyflym."*

Dywedodd Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet dros Lywodraeth Leol, Tai a Chynllunio, Julie James:


> *"Mae proses gydsynio effeithiol ac effeithlon yn hanfodol er mwyn cynnal prosiectau seilwaith mawr yng Nghymru sy'n gwneud cyfraniad cadarnhaol at ein ffyniant cymdeithasol, economaidd ac amgylcheddol a'n huchelgeisiau sero\-net.*
> 
> *"Yn ogystal â helpu Cymru i gystadlu am arian buddsoddi a swyddi, bydd hefyd yn cryfhau cymunedau lleol a rhanddeiliaid allweddol eraill drwy roi cyfleoedd cadarn i gymryd rhan mewn proses agored a theg i'w helpu i siapio datblygiadau sy'n effeithio arnyn nhw.*
> 
> *"Rwyf wedi ymrwymo i weithio'n agos gyda rhanddeiliaid wrth ddatblygu is\-ddeddfwriaeth i helpu i sicrhau bod y broses ar gyfer cydsynio seilwaith yn effeithiol ac effeithlon, gyda chymaint â phosib yn cymryd rhan."*

I sicrhau bod y ddeddfwriaeth newydd yn cael ei rhoi ar waith yn esmwyth, mae dau bapur ymgynghori wedi cael eu cyhoeddi.

Mae'r papur ymgynghori cyntaf yn canolbwyntio ar y drefn ymgynghori cyn ymgeisio ac yn gofyn i gymunedau lleol a charfanau eraill am syniadau ynghylch sut y dylid cynnal ymgynghoriad cyn ymgeisio.

Bydd yr ail bapur ymgynghori'n holi am ffioedd y broses gydsynio.

Anogir cymunedau lleol a rhanddeiliaid eraill i gymryd rhan yn yr ymgynghoriadau iddyn nhw helpu i ffurfio'r datblygiadau sy'n effeithio arnyn nhw.

The new legislation, which was passed by the Senedd in April, introduces major changes to the legislative framework and will speed up the consenting process on both land and in the territorial sea.

This unified approach to the consenting process will create more consistency and certainty in Wales’s ability to deliver, develop and attract further infrastructure investment.

Sealing his first Act since taking office, First Minister Vaughan Gething said:


> “There is no greater challenge than the climate emergency so I’m delighted this new law will play a key role in delivering the Welsh Government’s renewable energy targets.
> 
> “As we move towards ‘net zero’ emissions by 2050, we need to transform our economy to power green prosperity. This new legislation will allow us to consent to such infrastructure projects in a robust, but timely manner.”

Cabinet Secretary for Housing, Local Government and Planning, Julie James, said:


> “Having an effective and efficient consenting process is vital to deliver significant infrastructure projects in Wales which make a positive contribution towards our social, economic and environmental prosperity and net zero ambitions.
> 
> “Not only will it improve the competitiveness of Wales as an attractive place for investment and jobs, it will also empower local communities and other key stakeholders by providing robust opportunities to engage in an open and transparent process to help shape developments which affect them.
> 
> “I am committed to working closely with stakeholders during the development of the subordinate legislation to help ensure the infrastructure consenting process operates effectively, efficiently and with maximum engagement.”

To ensure the smooth implementation of the new legislation, 2 consultation papers have been issued.

The first consultation paper focuses on the pre\-application consultation procedure seeking ideas and suggestions from local communities and other interested parties on how pre\-application consultation should be conducted.

The second consultation paper focuses on fees for the consenting process.

Local communities and other key stakeholders are encouraged to engage with the consultations to help shape developments which affect them.
