Amcan pennaf Llywodraeth Cymru yn ei thrafodaethau am yr MFF yw dod â gwaith a thwf i Gymru.  Ym mhob un o gyfarfodydd Cydbwyllgor Gweinidogion Ewrop y mae Gweinidogion Llywodraeth y DU a’r Gweinyddiaethau Datganoledig eraill wedi cymryd rhan ynddynt ers Mehefin 2011, rwyf wedi ategu’r pwyslais hwnnw a’n hawydd mawr i weld y gwariant ar y PAC a’r Cronfeydd Strwythurol yn para ar lefelau heddiw. Rwyf wedi manteisio ar bob cyfle yng nghyfarfodydd y Cydbwyllgor i ddatgan mor bwysig i Gymru yw nawdd yr MFF ar gyfer ymchwil, datblygu ac arloesi trwy’r fenter Horizon 2020 ac ar gyfer buddsoddi yn y rhwydweithiau trafnidiaeth, telathrebu ac ynni trwy Gyfleuster Cysylltu Ewrop. Maent oll yn sbardunau pwysig ar gyfer swyddi a thwf.
The Welsh Government’s overarching objective in the MFF negotiations has been an agreement that would deliver jobs and growth for Wales. I have affirmed this focus, and our strong desire to see spending maintained at current levels on the CAP and Structural Funds, at every meeting of the Joint Ministerial Committee (Europe), involving Ministers of the UK Government and the other Devolved Administrations, since June 2011. I have also taken every opportunity at the JMC(E) to state the importance to Wales of support in the MFF for research, development and innovation from the Horizon 2020 initiative and for potential investment in the infrastructure for transport, telecommunications and energy networks under the Connecting Europe Facility as these are important drivers of growth and jobs.
