English: Diolch, Llywydd, and I move the motion. Thank you for the opportunity to briefly explain the background on the Trade in Animals and Related Products (Wales) (Amendment) (EU Exit) Regulations 2021. These regulations were made using the made-affirmative procedure under powers conferred on Welsh Ministers by the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018. They were made on 22 March, laid before the Senedd on 24 March, and came into force on 31 March. Due to urgency in needing to amend the date of 1 April 2021, it was necessary for these regulations to be made and come into force before being approved by resolution of the Senedd. In order for these regulations to remain in effect, approval of the Senedd is being sought today. These regulations amend Schedule 5 to the Trade in Animals and Related Products (Wales) Regulations 2011 to change the date from which transitional requirements of prior notification for imports into Wales of products of animal origin apply from 1 April 2021 to 31 July 2021. The reason for the change in date is that, following a review by officials of the implementation plan for import controls, a decision was made at the UK Government ministerial exit operations committee to delay the introduction of documentary and physical checks. This is because, since the end of the transition period, businesses and competent authorities have had to adapt and meet extensive new requirements when moving goods under the new trading relationship with the EU. As the other administrations were in agreement to extend the transitional period, changes were made at GB level to retained EU law by the UK Government, with the consent of Welsh Ministers. To align with the changes to retained EU law and legislation in England and Scotland, these regulations therefore also amend the 1 April 2021 date to 31 July 2021 in the Trade in Animals and Related Products (Wales) Regulations 2011. No points were raised in respect of these regulations in the legal advice note prepared by the Senedd's legal advisers and laid before the Senedd on 24 May. Diolch.
Welsh: Diolch, Llywydd, ac rwy'n cynnig y cynnig. Diolch am y cyfle i egluro'n gryno gefndir Rheoliadau'r Fasnach mewn Anifeiliaid a Chynhyrchion Perthynol (Cymru) (Diwygio) (Ymadael â'r UE) 2021. Gwnaed y rheoliadau hyn gan ddefnyddio'r weithdrefn gadarnhaol a wnaed o dan bwerau a roddwyd i Weinidogion Cymru gan Ddeddf yr Undeb Ewropeaidd (Ymadael) 2018. Fe'u gwnaed ar 22 Mawrth, a'u gosod gerbron y Senedd ar 24 Mawrth, a daethant i rym ar 31 Mawrth. Oherwydd yr angen brys i ddiwygio'r dyddiad 1 Ebrill 2021, roedd angen gwneud y rheoliadau hyn a'u gweithredu cyn eu cymeradwyo drwy benderfyniad gan y Senedd. Er mwyn i'r rheoliadau hyn barhau i fod mewn grym, gofynnir am gymeradwyaeth y Senedd heddiw. Mae'r rheoliadau hyn yn diwygio Atodlen 5 i Reoliadau'r Fasnach mewn Anifeiliaid a Chynhyrchion Perthynol (Cymru) 2011 i newid y dyddiad y mae gofynion pontio hysbysu ymlaen llaw ar gyfer mewnforio i Gymru cynhyrchion sy'n dod o anifeiliaid yn gymwys o 1 Ebrill 2021 i 31 Gorffennaf 2021. Y rheswm dros y newid yn y dyddiad yw, yn dilyn adolygiad gan swyddogion o'r cynllun gweithredu ar gyfer rheolaethau mewnforio, y gwnaed penderfyniad ym mhwyllgor gweinidogol gweithrediadau ymadael Llywodraeth y DU i ohirio cyflwyno gwiriadau dogfennol a chorfforol. Y rheswm dros hyn yw, ers diwedd y cyfnod pontio, mae busnesau ac awdurdodau cymwys wedi gorfod addasu a bodloni gofynion newydd helaeth wrth symud nwyddau o dan y berthynas fasnachu newydd â'r UE. Gan fod y gweinyddiaethau eraill yn cytuno i ymestyn y cyfnod pontio, gwnaed newidiadau ar lefel Prydain i gadw cyfraith yr UE gan Lywodraeth y DU, gyda chydsyniad Gweinidogion Cymru. Er mwyn cyd-fynd â'r newidiadau i gyfraith a deddfwriaeth yr UE a gedwir yn yr Alban a Lloegr, mae'r rheoliadau hyn felly hefyd yn diwygio'r dyddiad 1 Ebrill 2021 i 31 Gorffennaf 2021 yn Rheoliadau'r Fasnach mewn Anifeiliaid a Chynhyrchion Perthynol (Cymru) 2011. Ni chodwyd unrhyw bwyntiau o ran y rheoliadau hyn yn y nodyn cyngor cyfreithiol a baratowyd gan gynghorwyr cyfreithiol y Senedd ac a osodwyd gerbron y Senedd ar 24 Mai. Diolch.
