Mae ein data mwyaf diweddar yn dangos mai addasiadau bach a chanolig oedd y mwyafrif llethol o GCA – 1,507 bach a 2,214 canolig – o gymharu a dim ond 269 o addasiadau mawr. Os dilëwn y prawf modd, mae ymchwil annibynnol yn cyfrifo y byddai’n golygu cost ychwanegol ar lywodraeth leol yng Nghymru o £238,000, ac mae’n amcangyfrif y byddai pob awdurdod lleol yn arbed £6,000-£10,000 bob blwyddyn mewn costau gweinyddol. Cyhoeddwyd yr ymchwil hwn gan Ganolfan Polisi Cyhoeddus Cymru ar eu gwefan heddiw.
Our most recent data shows us that small and medium sized adaptations made up the vast majority of DFGs – 1,507 small and 2,214 medium adaptations, compared with just 269 large adaptations. If we remove the means test, independent research calculates it would cost local government in Wales an additional £238,000, and estimates each local authority would save £6,000-£10,000 in annual administration costs. This research by the Wales Centre for Public Policy has been published on their website today.
