Hoffwn ddiolch i’r rheini sydd wedi cytuno i gyflawni rôl y Swyddogion Canlyniadau Rhanbarthol ar gyfer etholiadau Senedd Cymru  eleni. Bydd yr etholiadau hyn yn rhai heriol iawn gan eu bod yn cael eu cyfuno ag etholiadau’r Comisiynwyr Heddlu a Throseddu, ac yn bwysicaf na hynny, dyma fydd y tro cyntaf i’r gwladolion tramor cymwys a’r bobl ifanc sydd newydd gael yr hawl i bleidleisio gymryd rhan ynddynt. Hefyd, bydd her ychwanegol o ran sicrhau bod yr etholiadau’n cael eu cynnal mewn modd diogel yn wyneb y pandemig. Mae hyn yn gofyn am ymrwymiad personol sylweddol gan y rheini sydd wedi cytuno i gyflawni’r rôl hon, a dw i’n ddiolchgar y byddwn ni’n cael elwa ar eu gwybodaeth a’u profiad.
I would like to thank those who have agreed to take on the role of Regional Returning Officers for this year’s Senedd Cymru elections. These elections will be particularly challenging as they are combined with the Police and Crime Commissioner elections but, more importantly, they will be the first Senedd elections for the newly enfranchised group of young people and qualifying foreign nationals. There is also the additional challenge of ensuring the election can be run safely in light of the on-going pandemic. This is a significant personal commitment for those who have agreed to take on this role and I am grateful we will have the benefit of their knowledge and experience.
