Ar 18 Tachwedd 2013, cyhoeddais fy mod wedi gofyn i’r Athro Syr Ian Diamond, Is-Ganghellor presennol Prifysgol Aberdeen, gadeirio Adolygiad o Drefniadau Cyllido Addysg Uwch a Chyllid Myfyrwyr yng Nghymru. Hefyd, cyhoeddais y byddai panel arbenigol yn cael ei greu i gynorthwyo Syr Ian, ac oherwydd bod yr adolygiad yn un mor bwysig a phellgyrhaeddol y byddwn yn gwahodd y pleidiau gwleidyddol yng Nghymru i enwebu unigolion i ymuno â’r panel hwnnw.
On 18 November 2013 I announced that I had asked Professor Sir Ian Diamond, current Vice Chancellor of Aberdeen University, to chair a Review of Higher Education Funding and Student Finance Arrangements in Wales. I also announced that an expert panel would be established to support Sir Ian and given the importance and wide-ranging scope of the review that I would be inviting political parties in Wales to nominate individuals to join the Review Panel.
