Businesses, homes and communities have an opportunity to take part in a consultation on the next stage of fast broadband rollout in Wales, Minister for Skills and Science Julie James has said today.  

The consultation, published today, outlines the premises that cannot currently access superfast broadband and where telecommunications companies have no plans to reach in the next three years.  This follows a detailed Open Market Review and discussions with the industry to establish, premises by premises, where the next stage of the rollout needs to take place.

The Welsh Government’s current Superfast Cymru project continues to make good progress.  At the end of March 645,000 premises across Wales had been given access to fast fibre as a result of the programme. BT has confirmed it expects to deliver 30Mbps download speeds to around 690,000 premises before the programme closes at the end of December 2017\.  

The consultation will inform the next stage of the rollout to take place in early 2018 in order to reach the final few hard to reach premises. It has identified a list of over 98,000 premises. The rollout will be backed by a public sector budget of around £80m.

Minister for Skills and Science Julie James said: 


> “I am keen to hear the views of both the telecoms industry and residents and business owners on whether any further premises should be included or whether any premises currently on the list should be excluded.
> 
> “The consultation will help us to further refine the list of unconnected premises.  The more responses we receive, the more comprehensive the list will be.
> 
> “If there are communities that have an interest in driving their own solutions, I want to hear from them.  If there are views on how we should lot the procurement, I want to hear them.  If there are views on how we should prioritise or target the funding, I want to hear them.
> 
> “We have already transformed the situation in Wales through Superfast Cymru. The most recent Ofcom report showed that Wales has the best superfast broadband availability amongst the devolved nations, with over eight out ten premises with access.  This compares with just over half in 2014\.  
> 
> “But the work does not end when Superfast Cymru ends.  We want to reach the final few premises.  There will be further engagement with the industry and key stakeholders over the summer to refine the procurement approach with a view to invite formal tenders to deliver the new project in September with the new project beginning in early 2018\.     
> 
> “I am committed to achieving our ambitions in Taking Wales Forward to offer fast reliable broadband to every property in Wales.”

Mae gan fusnesau, cartrefi a chymunedau gyfle i gymryd rhan mewn ymgynghoriad ar gam nesaf cyflwyno'r cynllun band eang cyflym iawn yng Nghymru, meddai Julie James, y Gweinidog Sgiliau a Gwyddoniaeth heddiw.  

Mae'r ymgynghoriad, a gyhoeddwyd heddiw, yn rhoi amlinelliad o'r safleoedd sy'n methu cael mynediad i fand eang cyflym iawn, a ble nad oes gan gwmnïau telegyfathrebu gynlluniau i'w cyrraedd yn y dair mlynedd nesaf.   Mae hyn yn dilyn Adolygiad o'r Farchnad Agored a thrafodaethau gyda'r diwydiant i sefydlu, fesul safle, ble fydd cam nesaf y cynllun.  

Mae prosiect Cyflymu Cymru Llywodraeth Cymru yn parhau i ddatblygu'n foddhaol.  Ar ddiwedd Mawrth roedd 645,000 o safleoedd ledled Cymru wedi cael mynediad i ffibr cyflym o ganlyniad i'r rhaglen. Mae BT wedi cadarnhau eu bod yn disgwyl darparu cyflymder lawrlwytho o 30Mbps i oddeutu 690,000 o safleoedd cyn i'r rhaglen ddod i ben ar ddiwedd Rhagfyr 2017\.  

Bydd yr ymgynghoriad yn llywio cam nesaf y cynllun sydd i ddigwydd ddechrau 2018 er mwyn cyrraedd yr ychydig safleoedd olaf anodd eu cyrraedd.  Mae wedi nodi rhestr o dros 98,000 o safleoedd.  Bydd y cynllun yn derbyn cymorth cyllid y sector cyhoeddus o oddeutu £80 miliwn.

Dywedodd y Gweinidog Sgiliau a Gwyddoniaeth, Julie James: 


> "Dwi'n awyddus i glywed barn y diwydiant telathrebu a phreswylwyr a perchnogion busnes am a ddylai unrhyw safleoedd eraill gael eu cynnwys neu a ddylai unrhyw safle ar y rhestr gael ei eithrio.
> 
> "Bydd yr ymgynghoriad yn helpu inni fireinio ymhellach y rhestr o safleoedd sydd heb eu cysylltu.  Po fwyaf o ymatebion a gawn, po fwyaf cynhwysfawr fydd y rhestr.
> 
> "Os oes gan gymunedau ddiddordeb datrys eu problemau eu hunain, hoffwn glywed ganddynt.  Os oes gan rhywun farn ynghylch sut y dylem drefnu'r caffael, hoffwn eu clywed.  Os oes safbwyntiau ynghylch sut y dylem flaenoriaethu neu dargedu'r cyllid, rwyf am eu clywed. 
> 
> "Rydym eisoes wedi trawsnewid y sefyllfa yng Nghymru drwy Cyflymu Cymru.  Mae adroddiad diweddaraf Ofcom yn dangos bod gan Gymru y cysylltiadau band eang cyflym iawn gorau ymysg y gwledydd datganoledig, gyda dros wyth allan o ddeg safle wedi eu cysylltu.  Mae hyn yn cymharu ag ychydig dros hanner yn 2014\.  
> 
> "Ond nid yw'r gwaith yn dod i ben pan fydd Cyflymu Cymru yn dod i ben.  Rydym am gyrraedd yr ychydig o safleoedd sy'n weddill.  Bydd rhagor o drafod gyda'r diwydiant a phrif randdeiliaid dros yr haf i fireinio'r dull caffael gyda'r bwriad o wahodd tendrau ffurfiol i ddarparu'r prosiect newydd ym mis Medi, gyda'r prosiect newydd ar ddechrau 2018\.     
> 
> "Rwyf wedi ymrwymo i gyflawni ein huchelgeisiau yn Symud Cymru Ymlaen ac i gynnig band eang dibynadwy i bob safle yng Nghymru."
