Yn olaf, byddwn yn sicrhau y gellir defnyddio'r cyllid presennol mewn modd hyblyg ac effeithiol i gefnogi gwaith pwysig ar lefel leol er mwyn cyflawni her COVID-19. Bydd swyddogion yn ysgrifennu heddiw at awdurdodau lleol yn nodi sut y gallant fanteisio i'r eithaf ar y Grant Cymorth Tai a'r Grant Plant a Chymunedau i ddiwallu anghenion lleol yn y ffordd orau posib. Gwnaf bopeth yn fy mhŵer i sicrhau bod rhwystrau artiffisial rhag gwneud y peth iawn yn cael eu dileu fel y gallwn, gyda'n gilydd, ymateb yn gyflym a hyblyg i'r sefyllfa ddigynsail hon.
I have long shared the concerns expressed to by stakeholders about the plight of those who have no recourse to public funds. The law prevents us from offering these individuals certain types of support, including housing support. Ensuring access to good sanitation and providing facilities to allow people to self-isolate is a public health matter and will not be prevented in the same way. I have therefore advised local authorities to utilise alternative powers and funding to assist those who require shelter and other forms of support due to the COVID-19 pandemic. I know that stakeholders will welcome this and whilst it may not provide the long term answer we all desire I am pleased that we can fulfil our moral obligation and help them to stay safe and well during this pandemic.
