Ym mis Tachwedd 2013, sefydlais fyrddau cynghori yn Ninas-ranbarth Bae Abertawe a Phrifddinas-Ranbarth Caerdydd i wneud gwaith rhanbarthol mwy strategol a chydweithredu’n well. Fe’u sefydlwyd fel Byrddau Gorchwyl a Gorffen am gyfnod o 18 mis, gan adolygu’r trefniadau wedi hynny.
In November 2013, I established advisory Boards in the Swansea Bay City Region and the Cardiff Capital Region to drive a more strategic regional approach and better collaborative working.  These advisory Boards were established on a Task and Finish basis for the 18 month period, following which the arrangements would be reviewed.
