Mae'r papur ymgynghori yn cynnig bod cynghorau unigol yn gallu cael dewis eu system etholiadol eu hunain – rhwng y system gyntaf i'r felin a’r bleidlais sengl drosglwyddadwy. Yn dilyn cyhoeddiad ac ymgynghoriad y Papur Gwyn ar Lywodraeth Leol, cynigaf y dylai unrhyw newidiadau i system pleidleisio cyngor angendwy ran o dair o aelodaeth y cyngor i bleidleisio o blaid, yn adlewyrchu’r trothwy ar gyfer newidiadau o’r un fath yn y Cynulliad Cenedlaethol.
The consultation paper proposes that individual councils are able to choose their system of election – between first-past-the-post and single transferable vote. Following the publication and consultation on the Local Government White Paper, I propose that any changes to a council’s voting system should be subject to a two-thirds majority vote of that council’s membership, bringing this into line with the threshold for such changes to the National Assembly.
