Mae angen inni hefyd ystyried y symudiad hwn tuag at ddosbarthu derbyniadau Colofn 1 yn decach rhwng 27 gwlad yr UE yng nghyd-destun newid mawr i’r SPS yng Nghymru, o ganlyniad i symud o’r model SPS presennol arferol yng Nghymru i daliad mwy safonol, neu daliad sy’n seiliedig ar arwynebedd ar gyfer 2014. Rwy’n deall nad oes modd cyfiawnhau cynnal trefn talu uniongyrchol sy’n seiliedig ar lefelau cynhyrchu tua 10 mlynedd yn ôl. Mae Llywodraeth Cynulliad Cymru wedi dadansoddi effaith y newid hwn, sy’n dangos yn glir iawn y byddai’r taliadau’n newid yn sylweddol. Dyna paham y byddaf yn dadlau dros gyfnod pontio maith o 5 mlynedd o leiaf, fel y gall ffermwyr addasu i system newydd sy’n seiliedig ar arwynebedd. Nid wyf yn gweld pam fyddai angen cadw cymhlethdod y drefn hawliau bresennol o dan system gyffredinol sy’n seiliedig ar arwynebedd, yn enwedig os y gallwn liniaru’r anawsterau sy’n wynebu ffermwyr newydd neu ifanc o dan y model hanesyddol ar gyfer SPS.
We need also to consider this move for a more equitable distribution on Pillar 1 receipts between EU27 in the context of the significant re-distribution of the SPS within Wales consequent to moving from the current historic SPS model in Wales to a flatter or area based payment from 2014. I am clear that it is not justifiable to maintain a direct payment regime based on production levels achieved some 10 years ago. The Welsh Assembly Government has undertaken an impact analysis on this change that points up starkly that there would be significant redistribution of payments. It is for this reason that I will be arguing for a lengthy transitional period of at least 5 years so that farmers can adapt to an area based payment new system.I do not see why it would be necessary to retain the complexity of the current entitlement regime under a generalised area-based payment system, particularly if we can ease the difficulties that new or young entrants face under the historic model for the SPS.
