Pe bai hyn wedi bod yn achos o glefyd anifeiliaid neu argyfwng ar lefel y wlad gyfan, byddai gweithdrefnau pendant i ni eu dilyn a'u rhoi ar waith. Fodd bynnag, nid oes trefniadau tebyg yn bod ar gyfer digwyddiadau lleol sy'n ymwneud â'r tywydd neu fath arall o argyfwng. Un o'r prif argymhellion yn llythyr Kevin yw sefydlu Cynllun generig ar gyfer Ymdrin â Hapddigwyddiadau (CMP). Tynnodd fy sylw hefyd at ddiffyg cysondeb rhwng awdurdodau lleol o safbwynt llacio'r rheolau ar gyfer caniatáu claddu stoc marw ar y fferm.
Had this been an outbreak of animal disease, or another whole-of-Wales emergency, well established procedures would have been triggered at the outset of the incident.  However, similar arrangements for a structured response do not exist for very localised situations that are weather-related, or indeed to other types of contingency, event. A key recommendation made within Kevin’s letter is the need to establish a generic Contingency Management Plan (CMP).  He has also brought to my attention a lack of consistency between local authorities in relation to the implementation of the derogation for on-farm burial of fallen stock.
