Ar 16 Mehefin, yn fuan ar ôl cymryd cyfrifoldeb am y portffolio llywodraeth leol, ysgrifennais at Aelodau yn amlinellu fy null o ymdrin â’r penderfyniadau ar gyfer rhaglen adolygiadau o drefniadau etholiadol 2017 ledled Cymru. Ystyriais hyn yn flaenoriaeth ac ymrwymais i wneud penderfyniadau ar gyfer pob un o’r adolygiadau cyn gynted â phosibl, er mwyn galluogi llywodraeth leol i gael digon o amser i wneud unrhyw newidiadau gofynnol, cyn yr etholiadau llywodraeth leol ym mis Mai 2022.
On 16 June, shortly after taking over responsibility for the local government portfolio, I wrote to members setting out my approach to dealing with the decisions for the 2017 programme of electoral arrangements reviews across Wales. I considered this a priority and committed to making decisions for each of the reviews as soon as possible, to enable local government to have sufficient time to make any changes required, in advance of the local government elections in May 2022.
