O dan y ddyletswydd gofal sy'n ymwneud â gwastraff, mae'n ofynnol i aelwydydd sicrhau bod gwastraff sy'n cael ei gynhyrchu yn eu heiddo yn cael ei drosglwyddo i berson awdurdodedig i'w waredu, a gallant gael eu herlyn os na fyddant yn gwneud hyn. Fodd bynnag, nid dwyn achos llys yn erbyn rhywun yw'r ymateb mwyaf priodol bob tro ar gyfer y math hon o drosedd, a gall gymryd llawer o amser ac ymdrech. 

Dywedodd Hannah Blythyn, y Dirprwy Weinidog Tai a Llywodraeth Leol: 


> "Gwyddom fod dros 60% o wastraff sy'n cael ei dipio'n anghyfreithlon yn dod o aelwydydd. Fodd bynnag, yn aml nid y bobl eu hunain sydd wedi tipio'r gwastraff, ond mae nhw wedi methu â sicrhau eu bod nhw wedi rhoi'r gwastraff i'r bobl gywir i'w waredu.  
> 
> "Mae gan bob un ohonom gyfrifoldeb i atal ein gwastraff rhag mynd i'r dwylo anghywir, a bydd y rheoliadau hyn yn cynnig ffordd arall i gynghorau a Chyfoeth Naturiol Cymru fynd i'r afael â'r mater. 
> 
> "Ymgynghorwyd yn helaeth ar y cynigion hyn, a chafwyd cefnogaeth eang. Gofynnodd awdurdodau lleol a ymatebodd am ddull gweithredu cenedlaethol, cyson o ran pennu cosbau, ac ar i lefel y gosb fod yn gymesur â'r drosedd. 
> 
> "Fodd bynnag, rydym yn cydnabod na fydd pawb yn ymwybodol o'u cyfrifoldebau o ran dyletswydd gofal ac felly rydym yn datblygu ymgyrch i helpu pobl i ddeall eu rhwymedigaethau."

Drwy ddefnyddio cosbau penodedig, bydd hyn yn caniatáu awdurdodau lleol i gael system orfodi mwy effeithlon, a bydd hyn nid yn unig yn rhyddhau adnoddau y mae mawr eu hangen, ond gall hefyd helpu i fod yn ffordd effeithiol o atal hyn rhag digwydd. 

Mae'r rheoliadau wedi pennu cosb benodedig o £300 ac mae gan yr awdurdodau gorfodi y disgresiwn i gynnig yr opsiwn o dalu £150 yn gynnar. Gall cynghorau gadw'r derbyniadau i helpu i gyfrannu tuag at y costau o ymdrin â chosbau gwastraff. Bydd dal ganddynt yr opsiwn i arfer eu pwerau erlyn presennol ar gyfer troseddau y maent yn credu sy'n gofyn am gosb benodedig.

Under the waste duty of care, householders are required to ensure that waste produced on their property is transferred to an authorised person for disposal and can be prosecuted if they do not. However, taking someone to court is not always the most appropriate response for this type of offence and can take a great deal of time and effort.  
Deputy Minister for Housing and Local Government Hannah Blythyn said:   

> “We know that over 60% of fly\-tipped waste comes from households. However, often people in these households haven’t fly\-tipped the waste themselves, but they have failed to carefully check who they passed their waste to for disposal.    
> “We all have a responsibility to prevent our waste from getting into the wrong hands, and these regulations will provide councils and Natural Resources Wales with alternative way of tackling the issue.   
> “We consulted widely on these proposals and received widespread support. Local authorities who responded asked for a consistent, national approach to setting penalties and for the level of the penalty to be proportionate to the offence.   
> “However, we recognise that not all householders will be aware of their duty of care responsibilities and so we are developing a campaign to help people to understand their obligations.’’

By using fixed penalties this will allow local authorities to have a more efficient enforcement system and this not only frees up much needed resources but it can also help act as an effective deterrent. The regulations have set the fixed penalty at £300 and enforcing authorities have the discretion to offer the option of an early payment of £150\. Councils can retain the receipts to help contribute towards the costs of dealing with waste crime. They will still have the option to exercise their existing criminal prosecution powers for offences they believe require a fixed penalty.
