Gan ystyried penderfyniad unochrog Llywodraeth y DU, mae angen cytuno ar drefniadau ar gyfer y dyfodol a’u rhoi ar waith yng Nghymru i helpu'r sawl sy'n derbyn taliadau ar hyn o bryd i barhau i fyw'n annibynnol. Mae Gweinidogion Cymru eisoes wedi nodi ein bod yn dymuno clywed barn rhanddeiliaid am sut y dylai'r cymorth hwnnw gael ei ddarparu, cyn gwneud penderfyniad ynghylch y ffordd mwyaf addas o ddarparu'r cymorth. O ganlyniad, mae fy swyddogion wedi gweithio gyda chynrychiolwyr o randdeiliaid i nodi'r opsiynau ar gyfer darparu'r cymorth hwn. Mae'r rhain yn amrywio o basio cyfrifoldeb a chyllid i awdurdodau lleol er mwyn diwallu anghenion, i sefydlu Cronfa Byw'n Annibynnol yng Nghymru. Hoffwn ddiolch i gynrychiolwyr y rhanddeiliaid sydd wedi gweithio gyda fy swyddogion i wneud hyn.
Given the unilateral decision of the UK Government there is a need to agree and put in place future arrangements in Wales to support current recipients to continue to live independently. Welsh Ministers have indicated previously that to inform our decision on the most appropriate way to provide that support we wish to be appraised of stakeholders’ views on how that support should be provided. As a result my officials have worked with representatives of stakeholders to identify the options to provide this support. These range from passing responsibility and funding to local authorities to meet needs, to establishing a Welsh ILF. I would like to thank the stakeholder representatives who have worked with my officials to do this.
