Rwyf wedi ymrwymo i fynd i’r afael â diogelwch adeiladau yng Nghymru ac i fwrw ymlaen â’n rhaglen cyweirio adeiladau ynghyd â rhaglen arwyddocaol o ddiwygiadau i greu trefn diogelu adeiladau yng Nghymru sy’n ateb y gofyn.


Yn sylfaenol i’n gwaith cyweirio adeiladau yw’r gred sylfaenol y dylai datblygwyr gyfrannu at dalu am unioni’r problemau hyn.


Roeddwn i’n wir siomedig pan gyhoeddodd yr Ysgrifennydd Gwladol dros Dai, Ffyniant Bro a Chymunedau Michael Gove fis diwethaf mai ar gyfer Lloegr yn unig y byddai’r ardoll diogelwch adeiladau ac adduned y datblygwyr. Er erfyniadau croch a chlir gan Lywodraethau Cymru a’r Alban, bydd yr adduned a’r contract cysylltiedig yn bethau i Loegr yn unig.


Mae rhai datblygwyr eisoes wedi estyn yr adduned i Gymru.  Mae hynny’n gam adeiladol iawn ymlaen ac rwy’n eu canmol.


Trwy wneud, byddan nhw’n dod â dioddefaint lesddeiliaid a holl drigolion yr adeiladau dan sylw i ben, gan helpu hefyd i adennill enw da’r diwydiant.


Rwy’n siŵr nad unigolion prin yw’r datblygwyr hyn a bod yna eraill yn y diwydiant sy’n credu fel finnau bod ganddynt gyfrifoldeb am yr adeiladau y gwnaethon nhw eu datblygu yng Nghymru.


Rwyf heddiw wedi ysgrifennu at bob datblygwr – y rheini sydd wedi llofnodi’r adduned yn Lloegr a’r rheini sydd ddim – yn eu gwahodd i gwrdd â fi i drafod eu hamserlenni ar gyfer trwsio’r diffygion diogelwch yn eu hadeiladau yng Nghymru.


Er y byddai’n well gennyf gydweithio â datblygwyr i wneud y gwaith unioni sydd ei angen ar lesddeiliaid yng Nghymru, rwy’n barod i ddefnyddio’r holl bwerau sydd gennyf wrth law i fynd ar ôl y datblygwyr sydd ddim am gydweithio.


Rwy wedi cyhoeddi rhestr o ddatblygwyr sydd wedi dewis peidio â chydweithio â fi.  Rwy’n bendant fy marn y dylai peidio â chydweithio arwain at ganlyniadau arwyddocaol o ran eu busnes a’u henw da i’r cwmnïau dan sylw.

Translation:


 
I am committed to addressing building safety in Wales and continue to take forward our building remediation programme alongside a significant programme of reform to establish a fit for purpose building safety regime in Wales.


At the heart of our approach to remediation is the fundamental belief that developers should contribute towards the costs of fixing these problems.


I was deeply disappointed when the Secretary of State for Housing, Levelling Up and Communities Michael Gove announced an England\-only building safety levy and associated developer pledge last month. Despite clear and repeated representations from the Welsh and Scottish Governments the pledge and subsequent contract are both being taken forward on an England only basis.


Some developers have already voluntarily extended the pledge to Wales.  This is an extremely positive step forward and I commend these firms for taking it.


In so doing, they will bring an end to the suffering experienced by leaseholders and all the residents of these affected buildings, while also helping to repair the industry’s reputation.


I feel sure these developers are not alone and there are others in the industry, which share my firm conviction their responsibility extends to the buildings they developed in Wales.


I have today written to all developers – those who signed the pledge in England and those who did not – inviting them to meet me to discuss the timeframes they have in place to repair safety defects in their buildings in Wales. 


While I would prefer to work in collaboration with developers to secure the required remediation for Welsh leaseholders, I am prepared to use all the powers at my disposal to pursue developers who do not engage. 


I have published a list of developers who have chosen not to engage with me. I am clear that failing to act should have significant reputational and commercial consequences for the firms involved.
