Ruth will succeed the current chair, Kathryn Bishop, who stepped down in October after serving for 5 years in post.


In recent years, Ruth has served in several other non\-executive membership roles with organisations including the Centre for Digital Public Services for Wales and Digital Health and Care Wales.


The WRA currently manages 2 devolved taxes, Land Transaction Tax and Landfill Disposals Tax, on behalf of the Welsh Government.


Minister for Finance and Local Government, Rebecca Evans, commented:



> “It’s 5 years since the first WRA Board meeting was held and it became the first non\-ministerial department established by the Welsh Government.
> 
> 
> “Under Kathryn’s insightful leadership, the WRA became the vehicle which allowed Wales to raise taxes for the first time in 800 years. To date, the WRA has raised more than £1bn in tax revenue to support public services across Wales.
> 
> 
> “I’m pleased to welcome Ruth to support the authority’s next chapter. Ruth’s credentials supporting other organisations, such as the Centre for Digital Public Services for Wales and Digital Health and Care Wales, will enable the WRA as a digital\-first organisation to develop even better digital public services in Wales.”


Incoming Chair, Ruth Glazzard, commented:



> “I’m delighted to become the next Chair of the WRA, and I’m excited to be continuing the successful journey Kathryn has had in supporting the organisation to this point.
> 
> 
> “I’m looking forward to working with other members of the Board to support the WRA’s leadership team to continue the organisation’s work, managing devolved taxes and supporting on the design and development of future taxes in Wales.
> 
> 
> “I recognise this is a difficult time in public services and I’m therefore proud to be working with a body that’s been set up to raise vital revenue to support communities across Wales.”


Dyfed Alsop, CEO of the WRA, commented:



> “I’d like to thank Kathryn for all the support offered over the last 5 years – through many firsts for tax in Wales and the challenging times we found ourselves in during the coronavirus (COVID\-19\) pandemic. Kathryn has made a major contribution in helping us become the modern tax authority we aspired to be 5 years ago.
> 
> 
> “I’d also like to welcome Ruth who I‘m looking forward to working with. I’m excited about the challenges and opportunities we have on the horizon, and welcome the wealth of experience and expertise Ruth will bring to the role as our next Board Chair.”


The appointment of Ruth Glazzard as WRA Chair follows a fair and open recruitment exercise.

Bydd Ruth yn olynu'r cadeirydd presennol, Kathryn Bishop, a roddodd y gorau i'r swydd ym mis Hydref ar ôl 5 mlynedd o wasanaeth.


Yn ystod y blynyddoedd diwethaf, mae Ruth wedi gwasanaethu fel aelod anweithredol gyda sawl sefydliad arall yn cynnwys Canolfan Gwasanaethau Cyhoeddus Digidol Cymru ac Iechyd a Gofal Digidol Cymru.


Ar hyn o bryd mae ACC yn rheoli 2 dreth ddatganoledig, y Dreth Trafodiadau Tir a'r Dreth Gwarediadau Tirlenwi, ar ran Llywodraeth Cymru.


Meddai Rebecca Evans AS, Gweinidog Cyllid a Llywodraeth Leol:



> "Mae'n 5 mlynedd ers cynnal cyfarfod cyntaf Bwrdd ACC a dyma’r adran anweinidogol gyntaf i’w sefydlu gan Lywodraeth Cymru.
> 
> 
> "Dan arweiniad craff Kathryn, datblygodd ACC i fod y cyfrwng oedd yn caniatáu i Gymru godi trethi am y tro cyntaf mewn 800 mlynedd. Hyd yma, mae ACC wedi codi mwy na £1bn mewn refeniw treth i gefnogi gwasanaethau cyhoeddus ledled Cymru.
> 
> 
> "Rwy'n falch o groesawu Ruth i gefnogi pennod nesaf yr awdurdod. Bydd cymwysterau Ruth wrth gefnogi sefydliadau eraill, megis Canolfan Gwasanaethau Cyhoeddus Digidol Cymru ac Iechyd a Gofal Digidol Cymru, yn galluogi ACC fel sefydliad digidol\-yn\-gyntaf i ddatblygu gwasanaethau cyhoeddus digidol gwell fyth yng Nghymru."


Meddai Ruth Glazzard, y Cadeirydd newydd:



> "Rwy'n falch iawn o fod yn Gadeirydd nesaf ACC, ac rwy'n edrych ymlaen yn fawr at barhau â thaith lwyddiannus Kathryn wrth iddi gefnogi'r sefydliad hyd yn hyn.
> 
> 
> "Rwy'n edrych ymlaen at weithio gydag aelodau eraill y Bwrdd er mwyn cefnogi tîm arwain ACC i barhau â gwaith y sefydliad, rheoli trethi datganoledig a chefnogi dyluniad a datblygiad trethi yng Nghymru ar gyfer y dyfodol.
> 
> 
> "Rwy'n sylweddoli bod hwn yn gyfnod anodd i wasanaethau cyhoeddus ac felly rwy'n falch o fod yn gweithio gyda chorff sydd wedi'i sefydlu er mwyn codi refeniw hanfodol i gefnogi cymunedau ledled Cymru."


Dywedodd Dyfed Alsop, Prif Weithredwr ACC:



> "Hoffwn i ddiolch i Kathryn am ei holl gefnogaeth dros y 5 mlynedd diwethaf – drwy lawer o ddatblygiadau newydd ar gyfer treth yng Nghymru a chyfnod heriol y pandemig coronafeirws (COVID\-19\). Mae Kathryn wedi gwneud cyfraniad mawr wrth ein helpu i fod yr awdurdod treth modern yr oeddem am fod 5 mlynedd yn ôl.
> 
> 
> "Hoffwn hefyd groesawu Ruth. Rwy'n edrych ymlaen at gydweithio â hi ac at yr heriau a'r cyfleoedd sydd ar y gorwel, ac rwy’n croesawu'r cyfoeth o brofiad ac arbenigedd a ddaw Ruth i'r rôl fel ein Cadeirydd Bwrdd nesaf."


Mae penodiad Ruth Glazzard fel Cadeirydd ACC yn dilyn ymarfer recriwtio teg ac agored.
