Mae Llywodraeth Cymru yn cydnabod yr heriau o gynnal etholiad yn ystod y pandemig presennol ac mae am sicrhau bod staff a phleidleiswyr yn ddiogel. Drwy'r Gorchymyn, darparwyd cyllid ychwanegol i gwmpasu'r ystod o gyfarpar sydd ei angen i sicrhau bod iechyd staff a’r cyhoedd yn cael eu hamddiffyn. Mae hyn yn cynnwys offer diogelu personol, adnoddau cadw pellter cymdeithasol, deunyddiau glanhau a staff ychwanegol i reoli’r polau.
The Welsh Government recognises the challenges of running an election during the current pandemic and wants to ensure that staff and voters are safe. Through the Order, additional funding has been provided to cover the range of equipment required to ensure the protection of staff and public health. This includes personal protective equipment, social distancing aides, cleaning materials and additional staff to manage to polls.
