Mae'r Papur Gwyn yn nodi cynigion ar gyfer system genedlaethol newydd i gategoreiddio tomenni a fydd yn seiliedig ar asesiad penodol o’r risg ym mhob safle. Byddai'r asesiad yn nodi’r peryglon y gallai tomen eu hachosi i gymunedau, eiddo, seilwaith neu'r amgylchedd.  Cafwyd cefnogaeth eang i'r cynigion hyn, er fy mod yn cydnabod y sylwadau ynghylch problemau recriwtio aseswyr cymwys neu brofiadol addas, a hefyd yr angen i sicrhau eu bod yn cael yr hyfforddiant a’r arweiniad priodol. Byddwn yn parhau i weithio gyda phartneriaid a rhanddeiliaid allweddol i fynd i'r afael â'r bylchau sgiliau hyn.  Rwy'n ddiolchgar i'n partneriaid ar y Tasglu am barhau i gydweithio ac ymgysylltu mor agos â ni wrth i ni dreialu asesiadau a dulliau categoreiddio peryglon, a mireinio cynigion ar gyfer archwiliadau, arfarniadau, cynlluniau rheoli a chytundebau cynnal a chadw.
The White Paper set out proposals for a new national approach to the categorisation of tips which will be underpinned by a tailored hazard assessment for each site. The hazard assessment would account for the hazards a tip might pose to communities, property, infrastructure or the environment.  There was broad support for these proposals, although I acknowledge the comments received on the recruitment shortages for suitable qualified or experienced assessors, and also the need to ensure appropriate training and guidance. We will continue to work with partners and key stakeholders on how we address these capability gaps.  I am grateful to our Task Force partners for the ongoing close collaboration and engagement as we continue to trial hazard assessments and categorisations, and refine proposals for inspections, appraisals, management plans and maintenance agreements.
