Pwysleisiais i’r Cynulliad ym mis Gorffennaf fod fy hyder yng Nghronfa Buddsoddi Cymru mewn Adfywio wedi cael cryn ergyd yn sgil effaith gronnol ymchwiliadau sydd wedi’u cynnal dros y misoedd diwethaf. Mae’r ymchwiliadau hyn yn parhau o hyd ac o’r herwydd rwyf wedi dod i’r casgliad na allaf godi’r moratoriwm ar weithgareddau’r Gronfa. Gwn mai effaith hynny, heb gamau pellach, fyddai estyn yr ansicrwydd ynghylch y Gronfa. Rwyf hefyd yn llwyr ymwybodol o’r ffaith y byddai gwneud dim yn golygu na fyddai adnoddau a ddylai fod ar gael i’w buddsoddi yn ein cymunedau  yn cael eu defnyddio.
I made clear to the Assembly in July that my confidence in RIFW as an effective investment vehicle in its current form had been seriously damaged by the cumulative impact of investigations that have been underway over recent months.  These investigations are still continuing and in the circumstances I have concluded that I am not in a position to remove the moratorium on the activities of the Fund.  I am conscious that the effect of that would, without further action, simply be to extend the uncertainty surrounding the Fund.  I am also very concerned that unless I take further action resources which should be made available to invest in our communities will instead be lying unused in RIFW’s bank account.
