Mae ein hymrwymiad i ddeddfu er mwyn dileu’r amddiffyniad o ran cosbi plant yn gorfforol yn dangos pa mor benderfynol yr ydym i warchod hawliau plant.  Rydym wedi ymgynghori ar ein cynnig i gyflawni hyn a byddwn yn cyhoeddi crynodeb a dadansoddiad o’r ymatebion yn fuan. Mae hyn yn rhan o becyn ehangach o fesurau i gefnogi plant a’u rhieni drwy ddarparu gwybodaeth a chyngor o ran defnyddio technegau mwy cadarnhaol i fagu plant, naill ai drwy ein rhaglenni, drwy gydweithio â phartneriaid yn y sector cyhoeddus a’r trydydd sector, neu drwy ein hymgyrch “Magu plant – Rhowch amser iddo”.
Our commitment to legislate to remove the defence of physical punishment of children is rooted in our determination to protect children’s rights.  We have consulted on our proposal to achieve this and will publish the summary and analysis of responses shortly. This is part of a wider package of measures to support children and their parents byproviding information and advice on positive parenting techniques, whether through our programmes, collaboration with partners in the public and third sectors, or through our “Parenting – Give It Time” campaign.
