English: No, it is not the case. I can't be clearer than I have been today. We have been absolutely categorical about the kind of post-Brexit relationship with the European Union the Welsh Government thinks would be in the interests of Wales. I was invited by Darren Millar to take the view that a referendum was preferable to that, and I hope that I was clear then. If the sort of deal can emerge from Parliament that reflects the principles that we have set out in 'Securing Wales' Future', and the principles that the leader of the opposition's letter outlined earlier this week, that is the kind of post-Brexit relationship we would be able to support. If that is not possible, then we fully recognise that the means of breaking that deadlock is another referendum. It's a perfectly pragmatic position.
Welsh: Na, nid yw hynny'n wir. Ni allaf fod yn gliriach nag y bûm heddiw. Rydym wedi bod yn gwbl bendant ynghylch y math o berthynas gyda'r Undeb Ewropeaidd y mae Llywodraeth Cymru yn credu y byddai o fudd i Gymru ar ôl Brexit. Cefais wahoddiad gan Darren Millar i fabwysiadu'r safbwynt bod refferendwm yn well na hynny, ac rwy'n gobeithio fy mod yn glir bryd hynny. Pe gallai'r Senedd sicrhau cytundeb sy'n adlewyrchu'r egwyddorion rydym wedi'u nodi yn 'Diogelu Dyfodol Cymru', a'r egwyddorion a amlinellwyd yn llythyr arweinydd yr wrthblaid yn gynharach yr wythnos hon, dyna'r math o berthynas y gallem ei chefnogi yn dilyn Brexit. Os nad yw hynny'n bosibl, rydym yn llwyr gydnabod mai'r ffordd o dorri'r anghytundeb hwnnw yw cynnal refferendwm arall. Mae'n safbwynt hollol bragmatig.
English: The inter-governmental agreement has made the EU (Withdrawal) Act 2018 more effective in respecting devolution. Importantly, thus far there have been no clause 12 regulations to restrict devolved competence. In terms of correcting legislation, both the Welsh Government and the UK Government have worked within the spirit of the agreement.
Welsh: Mae'r cytundeb rhynglywodraethol wedi gwneud Deddf yr Undeb Ewropeaidd (Ymadael) 2018 yn fwy effeithiol o ran parchu datganoli. Yn bwysig, ni chafwyd hyd yma unrhyw reoliadau cymal 12 i gyfyngu ar gymhwysedd datganoledig. O ran cywiro deddfwriaeth, mae Llywodraeth Cymru a Llywodraeth y Deyrnas Unedig wedi gweithio o fewn ysbryd y cytundeb.
English: Well, I'm not sure what your definition of working within the spirit of the agreement is, because I sit in committee after committee listening to the environment Minister, for example, complaining that there has been no collaboration on developing things such as the fisheries Act of the UK and the UK agriculture Act. In written evidence - paragraph after paragraph saying things like:
Welsh: Wel, dwi ddim yn siŵr iawn beth yw'ch diffiniad chi o weithio mewn ysbryd cytundeb, oherwydd dwi wedi eistedd mewn pwyllgor ar ôl pwyllgor yn gwrando ar Weinidog yr amgylchedd, er enghraifft, yn cwyno bod yna ddim cydweithredu wedi bod ar ddatblygu pethau fel Deddf pysgodfeydd y Deyrnas Unedig a Deddf amaeth y Deyrnas Unedig. Mewn tystiolaeth ysgrifenedig - paragraff ar ôl paragraff yn dweud pethau fel:
English: 'the provisions relating to Schedule 1 were drafted by parliamentary counsel following instruction from UK Government. Welsh Ministers were not consulted on the instructions',
Welsh: cafodd y darpariaethau sy'n ymwneud ag Atodlen 1 eu drafftio gan y cwnsler seneddol yn dilyn cyfarwyddiadau gan Lywodraeth y DU. Ni ymgynghorwyd â Gweinidogion Cymru ynglŷn â'r cyfarwyddiadau,
English: and then going on to complain about the legislation expected of us here in Wales. So, isn't it now apparent that the experiences of this Government, and the Ministers of this Government, particularly in the context of the two Bills that I referred to, demonstrate that the UK Government has no real desire to collaborate with the devolved administrations in order to develop legislation in this context, and that the agreement, to all intents and purposes, is completely ineffective?
Welsh: ac wedyn yn mynd ymlaen i gwyno ynglŷn â'r hyn yr oedd y ddeddfwriaeth yn disgwyl ohonon ni yma yng Nghymru. Felly, onid yw hi'n amlwg bod profiadau'r Llywodraeth yma, a Gweinidogion y Llywodraeth yma, yn enwedig yng nghyd-destun y ddau Fil dwi wedi cyfeirio atyn nhw, yn dangos nad oes gan Lywodraeth y Deyrnas Unedig awydd gwirioneddol i gydweithio â'r Llywodraethau datganoledig i ddatblygu deddfwriaeth yn y cyd-destun yma, a bod y cytundeb, i bob pwrpas, yn gwbl aneffeithiol?
English: Item 3 is topical questions, and we have one to be answered by the Minister for Housing and Local Government. Jenny Rathbone.
Welsh: Eitem 3 yw'r cwestiynau amserol, ac mae gennym un sydd i'w ateb gan y Gweinidog Tai a Llywodraeth Leol. Jenny Rathbone.
English: Yes, I recognise there are issues in terms of providing effective resettling services for people leaving Her Majesty's Prison Cardiff. Resources within the Community Rehabilitation Company have been a key issue. I want to see an improvement to the standards and capacity of the existing resettlement services, in particular the CRC. Responsibility for this, however, falls to the Ministry of Justice. I acknowledge that local authorities also have a role to play, and we are prioritising this area with additional resources from the homelessness prevention grant.
Welsh: Ie, rwy'n cydnabod bod problemau mewn perthynas â darparu gwasanaethau adsefydlu effeithiol ar gyfer pobl sy'n gadael Carchar EM Caerdydd. Mae adnoddau o fewn y Cwmni Adsefydlu Cymunedol wedi bod yn fater allweddol. Rwyf eisiau gweld gwelliant i safonau a chapasiti'r gwasanaethau adsefydlu presennol, yn arbennig y Cwmni Adsefydlu Cymunedol. Fodd bynnag, y Weinyddiaeth Gyfiawnder sy'n gyfrifol am hyn. Rwy'n cydnabod bod gan awdurdodau lleol rôl i'w chwarae hefyd, ac rydym yn blaenoriaethu'r maes hwn gydag adnoddau ychwanegol o'r grant atal digartrefedd.
English: I appreciate that this issue is not currently a devolved matter, but, nevertheless, we should all be concerned that of the 23 men being released on a particular cold day, only 13 of them had a definite place to sleep that night, and there was clear evidence from them that some of them intended to reoffend in order to get back into prison, and the warmth and food that that provides. Now, of course, we're all aware that the Housing (Wales) Act 2014 removed prisoners from the list of vulnerable people who automatically need to be rehoused. Nevertheless, the argument at the time in committee was that anybody without a home to go to must be seen to be a vulnerable person. I know that the Prison Advice and Care Trust, which is a voluntary organisation that's running the cafe for families in the prison, is actively recruiting volunteers to meet people who are leaving prison, and take them to Dumballs Road, where the housing options team will receive them, as well as getting to the Department for Work and Pensions to sign on and to see their probation officer. But it's unclear to me - and I don't know whether the Minister's able to reassure us - whether things have now improved since this report was finished, because it only relates to the period up to the end of August, or whether we are still getting men released who the prison service have failed to pinpoint where they need to go in order to get the minimum sum of money, as well as a roof over their head for that night.
Welsh: Rwy'n sylweddoli nad yw hwn yn fater sydd wedi'i ddatganoli ar hyn o bryd, ond serch hynny, dylem oll fod yn bryderus nad oedd ond 13 yn unig o'r 23 dyn a ryddhawyd ar ddiwrnod oer penodol â lle pendant i gysgu'r noson honno, ac roedd tystiolaeth glir ganddynt fod rhai ohonynt yn bwriadu aildroseddu er mwyn mynd yn ôl i'r carchar, a'r cynhesrwydd a'r bwyd a ddarperir yno. Nawr, wrth gwrs, mae pawb ohonom yn ymwybodol fod Deddf Tai (Cymru) 2014 wedi tynnu carcharorion oddi ar y rhestr o bobl agored i niwed sydd angen eu hailgartrefu'n awtomatig. Serch hynny, dadl y pwyllgor ar y pryd oedd bod yn rhaid ystyried unrhyw un nad oes ganddynt gartref i fynd iddo fel person agored i niwed. Gwn fod yr Ymddiriedolaeth Cyngor a Gofal Carchardai, sef sefydliad gwirfoddol sy'n rheoli'r caffi ar gyfer teuluoedd yn y carchar, yn mynd ati i recriwtio gwirfoddolwyr i gyfarfod â phobl sy'n gadael y carchar a mynd â hwy i Ffordd Dumballs, lle bydd y tîm dewisiadau tai yn cyfarfod â hwy, yn ogystal â mynd i'r Adran Gwaith a Phensiynau i gofrestru ac i weld eu swyddog prawf. Ond nid yw'n glir i mi - ac nid wyf yn gwybod a all y Gweinidog roi sicrwydd i ni - a yw pethau wedi gwella ers i'r adroddiad hwn gael ei orffen, oherwydd nid yw ond yn ymwneud â'r cyfnod hyd at ddiwedd mis Awst, neu a oes dynion yn dal i gael eu rhyddhau heb fod y gwasanaeth carchardai wedi gallu nodi'n union lle mae angen iddynt fynd er mwyn cael y swm lleiaf o arian, yn ogystal â tho uwch eu pennau am y noson honno.
English: I think it is a matter for the UK Government and the Welsh Government working together, and a particular difficulty, I think, comes from short sentences, and we've seen an increase in the number of people subjected to short sentences, very often for offences that do not include violence against the person, for instance. Obviously, if we use community punishments, there is a much greater chance of ensuring that the housing situation of the person is not affected. And there is some evidence there's a bit of a cycle where some people are choosing to commit another offence and get back in prison because that's at least a secure roof for them. And this is an appalling dysfunction. It serves no-one any interest whatsoever, and we do need a much better, joined-up approach to this. But at least limiting to the very minimum the number of sentences under one year I think is a good start.
Welsh: Rwy'n credu bod angen i Lywodraeth y DU a Llywodraeth Cymru weithio gyda'i gilydd ar hyn, ac mae dedfrydau byr, rwy'n credu, yn arbennig o anodd, ac rydym wedi gweld cynnydd yn nifer y bobl sy'n cael dedfrydau byr, yn aml iawn am droseddau nad ydynt yn cynnwys trais yn erbyn unigolion, er enghraifft. Yn amlwg, os ydym yn defnyddio cosbau cymunedol, rydym yn llawer mwy tebygol o sicrhau nad yw sefyllfa dai troseddwyr yn cael ei heffeithio. A cheir peth tystiolaeth sy'n dangos bod rhywfaint o gylch lle mae rhai pobl yn dewis cyflawni trosedd arall a mynd yn ôl i'r carchar oherwydd bod hynny, o leiaf, yn rhoi to diogel uwch eu pennau. Ac mae hwn yn gamweithrediad gwarthus. Nid yw o fudd i neb o gwbl ac mae angen inni gael dull llawer gwell a mwy cydgysylltiedig o fynd i'r afael â hyn. Ond rwy'n credu bod cyfyngu cymaint â phosibl ar nifer y dedfrydau o dan flwyddyn yn ddechrau da o leiaf.
English: Yes, I completely agree with David Melding; there's a big issue with short prison sentences, which we've rehearsed many times in this Chamber. They aren't long enough to get any kind of programme of rehabilitation or retraining or anything else. They're designed, it seems sometimes, specifically to disrupt the person's family life, work prospects and housing. It's very hard to see what purpose they serve in any regard for anyone, to be honest. So, we do need to work very carefully with, in particular, the Magistrates' Association, actually, in terms of very short sentences, and I think there is a widespread view that that is something that needs to happen with some dispatch. Clearly, the options for community service or community payback schemes or whatever need to be thoroughly explored and made available. But also, of course, we need to prevent people from going into the criminal justice system in the first place, and so having some of the upstream measures I've just talked about in order to divert people away from the criminal justice system in the first place obviously would also be beneficial.
Welsh: Ie, cytunaf yn llwyr â David Melding; mae yna broblem fawr gyda dedfrydau carchar byr, ac rydym wedi trafod y mater droeon yn y Siambr. Nid ydynt yn ddigon hir i sicrhau unrhyw fath o raglen adsefydlu neu ailhyfforddi neu unrhyw beth arall. Mae'n ymddangos weithiau eu bod wedi cael eu cynllunio'n benodol i amharu ar fywyd teuluol, sefyllfa dai a rhagolygon gwaith yr unigolyn. Mae'n anodd iawn gweld beth yw eu diben o gwbl i neb a bod yn onest. Felly, mae angen i ni weithio'n ofalus gyda Chymdeithas yr Ynadon yn enwedig, mewn perthynas â dedfrydau byr iawn, a chredaf fod yna farn gyffredinol fod angen gwneud rhywbeth ynglŷn â hynny ar frys. Yn amlwg, mae angen i'r opsiynau ar gyfer gwasanaeth cymunedol neu gynlluniau gwneud iawn â'r gymuned neu beth bynnag gael eu harchwilio'n drylwyr a'u darparu. Ond hefyd, wrth gwrs, mae angen inni atal pobl rhag mynd i'r system cyfiawnder troseddol yn y lle cyntaf, ac felly byddai cael rhai o'r mesurau cynharach rwyf newydd sôn amdanynt er mwyn dargyfeirio pobl i ffwrdd oddi wrth y system cyfiawnder troseddol yn y lle cyntaf yn amlwg yn fuddiol.
English: There were a number of disturbing details contained within the report of the independent monitoring board at HMP Cardiff released last week. For example, I was concerned, as others have mentioned, to hear that going back to prison was more attractive for some inmates than staying at the Huggard centre. Now, it must be disappointing for you to read that the lack of accommodation available to inmates upon release was described as not only inhumane but as a major factor in reoffending. The report calls upon your Government directly to review housing policy as a matter of urgency, as well as to review health service provision towards primary mental health care in prisons. So, will you do that? Clearly, this Government has been failing prisoners more widely, and it's failing society actually, because reoffending is no-one's interests at all. Now, clearly, some of the responsibility for this is not devolved, but there are big responsibilities under your Government. So, what are you going to do about it all?
Welsh: Roedd nifer o'r manylion yn adroddiad y bwrdd monitro annibynnol yng Ngharchar EM Caerdydd a ryddhawyd yr wythnos diwethaf yn peri pryder. Er enghraifft, cefais fy nigalonni, fel y mae eraill wedi sôn, wrth glywed bod dychwelyd i'r carchar yn fwy deniadol i rai carcharorion nag aros yng nghanolfan Huggard. Nawr, mae'n rhaid eich bod wedi eich siomi wrth ddarllen bod y diffyg llety sydd ar gael i garcharorion ar ôl eu rhyddhau yn cael ei ddisgrifio fel rhywbeth sydd nid yn unig yn greulon, ond yn ffactor pwysig o ran aildroseddu. Mae'r adroddiad yn galw ar eich Llywodraeth yn uniongyrchol i adolygu polisi tai ar frys, yn ogystal ag adolygu'r ddarpariaeth o wasanaethau iechyd ar gyfer gofal iechyd meddwl sylfaenol mewn carchardai. Felly, a wnewch chi hynny? Yn amlwg, mae'r Llywodraeth hon wedi gwneud cam â charcharorion yn fwy eang, ac mae'n gwneud cam â'r gymdeithas mewn gwirionedd, oherwydd nid yw aildroseddu o fudd i unrhyw un o gwbl. Nawr, yn amlwg, nid yw rhywfaint o'r cyfrifoldeb am hyn wedi'i ddatganoli, ond mae gan eich Llywodraeth chi gyfrifoldebau mawr. Felly, beth y bwriadwch ei wneud ynglŷn â hyn i gyd?
English: Item 4 on the agenda is the 90-second statements. The first one this afternoon is from Jack Sargeant.
Welsh: Eitem 4 ar yr agenda yw'r datganiadau 90 eiliad. A daw'r cyntaf y prynhawn yma gan Jack Sargeant.
English: Diolch, Deputy Llywydd. Sport has a massive part to play in inspiring generations and communities as well as having huge positive impacts on improving mental health. They are just some of the reasons why I want to wish local football team Connah's Quay Nomads from my own constituency all the best for their semi-final match against Edinburgh City in the Irn Bru Cup. The communities of Alyn and Deeside are very proud of what the club has achieved so far, but let's hope we can reach that final in Glasgow and bring the cup home. Deputy Llywydd, I also want to take this opportunity to extend my best wishes to Newport County AFC in their fifth round FA Cup match against Premier League champions Manchester City. Both matches are taking place this Saturday, so as much as I would like to join colleagues Jayne Bryant and John Griffiths at Rodney Parade, I will be at the Deeside stadium hoping for a Connah's Quay win. I urge Members and our communities to take part and watch both games as much as possible and however they can. Deputy Llywydd, from all of us here in the Senedd Chamber: 'Come on, County', 'Come on the Nomads.'
Welsh: Diolch, Ddirprwy Lywydd. Mae gan chwaraeon ran enfawr i'w chwarae yn y broses o ysbrydoli cenedlaethau a chymunedau, ac mae hefyd yn cael effaith gadarnhaol enfawr ar wella iechyd meddwl. Nid yw'r rhain ond yn rhai o'r rhesymau pam rwyf eisiau dymuno'n dda i dîm pêl-droed Nomads Cei Connah o fy etholaeth ar gyfer eu gêm gynderfynol yn erbyn Dinas Caeredin yng Nghwpan Irn Bru. Mae cymunedau Alun a Glannau Dyfrdwy yn falch iawn o'r hyn y mae'r clwb wedi'i gyflawni hyd yma, ond gadewch i ni obeithio y gallwn gyrraedd y rownd derfynol yn Glasgow a dod â'r gwpan adref. Ddirprwy Lywydd, hoffwn gymryd y cyfle hwn hefyd i ddymuno'n dda i glwb pêl-droed Casnewydd ar gyfer eu gêm bumed rownd yng Nghwpan yr FA yn erbyn pencampwyr yr Uwch Gynghrair, Dinas Manceinion. Cynhelir y ddwy gêm ddydd Sadwrn, felly er cymaint y buaswn yn hoffi ymuno â fy nghyd-Aelodau Jayne Bryant a John Griffiths yn Rodney Parade, byddaf yn stadiwm Glannau Dyfrdwy yn gobeithio am fuddugoliaeth i Gei Connah. Rwy'n annog yr Aelodau a'n cymunedau i gymryd rhan ac i wylio cymaint o'r ddwy gêm â phosibl ym mha bynnag fodd y gallant. Ddirprwy Lywydd, gan bob un ohonom yma yn Siambr y Senedd: 'Pob lwc i Gasnewydd', 'Pob lwc i'r Nomads'.
English: The next item is a motion to elect Members to committees. In accordance with Standing Orders 12.24 and 12.40, I propose that the motions to elect Members to committees are grouped for debate and voting. I take it no Member objects.
Welsh: Yr eitem nesaf yw cynnig i ethol Aelodau i bwyllgorau. Yn unol â Rheolau Sefydlog 12.24 a 12.40, rwy'n cynnig bod y cynigion i ethol Aelodau i bwyllgorau yn cael eu grwpio ar gyfer dadl a phleidlais. Rwy'n cymryd nad oes unrhyw Aelod yn gwrthwynebu.
English: Good. So, can I call on a member of the Business Committee to move the motions formally?
Welsh: Da iawn. Felly, a gaf fi alw ar aelod o'r Pwyllgor Busnes i gynnig y cynigion yn ffurfiol?
English: Thank you. The proposal is to agree the motions. Does any Member object? Therefore the motions are agreed in accordance with Standing Order 12.36.
Welsh: Diolch. Y cynnig yw derbyn y cynigion. A oes unrhyw Aelod yn gwrthwynebu? Felly, derbyniwyd y cynigion yn unol â Rheol Sefydlog 12.36.
English: Item 5 on our agenda this afternoon is a statement by the Llywydd: introduction of a Commission-proposed Bill - Senedd and Elections (Wales) Bill, and I call on the Llywydd, Elin Jones.
Welsh: Eitem 5 ar yr agenda y prynhawn yma yw datganiad gan y Llywydd: cyflwyno Bil arfaethedig y Comisiwn - Bil Senedd ac Etholiadau (Cymru), a galwaf ar y Llywydd, Elin Jones.
English: The introduction of the Senedd and Elections (Wales) Bill today sees the culmination of a long period of consultation and engagement with the public, political groups and wider stakeholders on electoral reform, and it takes up the opportunities presented in the Wales Act 2017 to strengthen our National Assembly for the better. The substance of the Bill, then, is to create a more effective and accessible Senedd and to ensure that the cradle of our democracy is fit for purpose as we celebrate its establishment 20 years ago. As the Member in charge of this Bill, I have listened to a wide range of views on the main elements of the draft legislation - changing the National Assembly's name, expanding the franchise for Assembly elections, and changing the law in relation to the arrangements governing individuals' ineligibility to stand for election. In designing these main provisions, the aim has been to ensure the broadest consensus possible among Members and to build on the mandate given to this legislation by a majority in this Assembly in October 2018.
Welsh: Mae cyflwyniad Bil Senedd ac Etholiadau (Cymru) heddiw yn benllanw cyfnod hir o ymgynghori ac ymgysylltu gyda'r cyhoedd, grwpiau gwleidyddol a phartneriaid ehangach ar ddiwygio etholiadol, ac yn manteisio ar y cyfleon a gyflwynir yn Neddf Cymru 2017 i rymuso ein Cynulliad Cenedlaethol er gwell. Hanfodion y Mesur felly yw creu Senedd sy'n fwy effeithiol a hygyrch, a sicrhau bod crud ein democratiaeth yn addas i bwrpas wrth iddi ddathlu 20 mlynedd ers ei sefydlu. Fel yr Aelod sy'n gyfrifol am y Bil, rwyf wedi gwrando ar ystod eang o safbwyntiau ar brif elfennau'r ddeddfwriaeth ddrafft - newid enw'r Cynulliad Cenedlaethol, ehangu'r etholfraint ar gyfer etholiadau'r Cynulliad, a newid y gyfraith ynghlwm â threfniadau anghymhwysedd unigolion i sefyll etholiad. Mae'r prif ddarpariaethau hyn wedi eu llunio gyda'r amcan o sicrhau'r consensws ehangaf posib ymysg Aelodau, ac adeiladu ar y mandad a roddwyd gan fwyafrif o'r Senedd i'r ddeddfwriaeth hon fis Hydref 2018.
English: Thank you. Can I call the Counsel General and the Brexit Minister, Jeremy Miles?
Welsh: Diolch. A gaf fi alw ar y Cwnsler Cyffredinol a'r Gweinidog Brexit, Jeremy Miles?
English: Thank you, Deputy Presiding Officer. I welcome this Bill, which is another important milestone in the journey of devolution. The Welsh Government is very supportive of the three main aims of the Bill, as we see them. First of all, giving the Senedd a name that reflects its status as a legislature, secondly, giving young people an opportunity to vote, and thirdly, providing greater clarity for possible candidates as to their eligibility. Specifically, the Welsh Government is entirely supportive of extending the franchise to young people of 16 and 17 years of age in Part 3 of the Bill. This was a commitment in the Welsh Government's national strategy 'Prosperity for All', and I'm very pleased that we can provide assistance through our officials to produce the provisions in this Part. We believe that the franchise for Assembly elections and local authority elections should be consistent. Specifically, we want to see the Bill extending the franchise to include foreign nationals who are legally resident in Wales, to reflect the provisions that we will introduce in relation to the local government franchise. In addition to that, the Assembly recently expressed its view that it supports the right of prisoners to vote in Welsh elections. We support that view in principle and await with interest the conclusions of the equality committee's inquiry.
Welsh: Diolch, Dirprwy Lywydd. Rwy'n croesawu'r Bil hwn, sy'n garreg filltir bwysig arall ar daith datganoli. Mae Llywodraeth Cymru'n gefnogol iawn i dri phrif nod y Bil, fel rŷn ni'n eu gweld nhw. Yn gyntaf, rhoi enw i'n Senedd sy'n adlewyrchi ei statws fel deddfwrfa, yn ail, rhoi cyfle i bobl ifanc bleidleisio, ac yn drydydd, rhoi mwy o eglurder i ymgeiswyr posib ynghylch a oes modd iddyn nhw sefyll. Yn benodol, mae Llywodraeth Cymru yn gwbl gefnogol i ymestyn yr etholfraint i bobl ifanc 16 a 17 oed yn Rhan 3 o'r Bil. Roedd hyn yn ymrwymiad yn strategaeth genedlaethol Llywodraeth Cymru, 'Ffyniant i Bawb.' Rwy'n falch iawn bod modd i ni gynnig cymorth gan ein swyddogion i gynhyrchu'r darpariaethau yn y Rhan hon. Rŷn ni'n credu dylai'r etholfraint ar gyfer etholiadau'r Cynulliad ac etholiadau llywodraeth leol fod yn gyson â'i gilydd. Yn benodol, rŷn ni am weld y Bil yn ymestyn yr etholfraint i gynnwys gwladolion tramor sy'n byw yn gyfreithlon yng Nghymru, i adlewyrchu'r darpariaethau y byddwn ni'n eu cyflwyno mewn perthynas â'r etholfraint llywodraeth leol. Ar ben hynny, mynegodd y Cynulliad yn ddiweddar ei fod yn cefnogi'r hawl i garcharorion bleidleisio yn etholiadau Cymru. Rŷn ni'n cefnogi'r safbwynt hwnnw mewn egwyddor, ac yn aros gyda diddordeb i glywed casgliadau ymchwiliad y pwyllgor cydraddoldeb.
