Mae erthygl 7 o'r Gorchymyn arfaethedig yn diwygio rheoliad 53 o Reoliadau Cynrychiolaeth y Bobl (Cymru a Lloegr) 2001 i alluogi unigolion i wneud cais i bleidleisio drwy ddirprwy yn etholiadau seneddol y DU ac etholiadau llywodraeth leol yng Nghymru a Lloegr heb fod angen ardystio eu cais os ydynt yn cael yr elfen symudedd o’r cymorth anabledd i blant a phobl ifanc ar y gyfradd uwch. Mae'r diwygiadau i Reoliad 53, i'r graddau y maent yn ymwneud â cheisiadau am bleidlais drwy ddirprwy ar gyfer etholiadau llywodraeth leol yng Nghymru, yn gwneud darpariaeth mewn maes sydd o fewn cymhwysedd deddfwriaethol y Senedd.
Article 7 of the proposed Order amends regulation 53 of the Representation of the People (England and Wales) Regulations 2001 to enable individuals to apply to vote by proxy in UK parliamentary elections and local government elections in England and Wales without the need for attestation of their application if they are in receipt of the mobility component of disability assistance for children and young people at the higher rate. The amendments to Regulation 53, insofar as they relate to proxy vote applications for local government elections in Wales are making provision in an area which is within the Senedd’s legislative competence.
