Ers hynny, mae’n deg dweud bod y Cyngor wedi symud yn ei flaen mewn rhai meysydd. Mae wedi diwygio ei system graffu er mwyn sicrhau bod yr holl gynghorwyr yn cael mwy o ddylanwad ar fusnes y Cyngor. Mae wedi rhoi terfyn ar yr arfer o benodi cynghorwyr i gadeirio pwyllgorau ac ar gyrff allanol ar sail ymlyniad gwleidyddol a ffafriaeth.
Since then, it is fair to say that the Council has moved forward in some areas. It has overhauled its scrutiny system to give all councillors a better say in Council business. It has ended the practice of appointing councillors to committee chairs and outside bodies on the basis of political loyalty and favouritism.
