Wrth baratoi'r Setliad Terfynol, rwyf wedi ystyried yn ofalus yr ymatebion a gefais i'r ymgynghoriad ynghylch y Setliad Dros Dro.  Rwy'n hyderus bod y setliad yn darparu sylfaen gadarn i gynghorau fynd ati i lunio eu cynlluniau ariannol ar gyfer y flwyddyn ariannol sydd i ddod.
In preparing the final settlement, I have given careful consideration to the responses I received to the consultation on the provisional settlement.  I am confident the settlement provides councils with a robust basis for their financial planning for the coming financial year.
