Grŵp 8: Platfform gwybodaeth am etholiadau Cymreig (Gwelliannau 108, 109, 49, 50, 51, 118, 119, 120)
I should just say I think I come at this from the opposite perspective to Peter. I think the creation of this platform is a really fantastic opportunity to raise levels of democratic engagement and public awareness of how democracy works. I referenced the…

Grŵp 8: Platfform gwybodaeth am etholiadau Cymreig (Gwelliannau 108, 109, 49, 50, 51, 118, 119, 120)
Diolch, Cadeirydd. Mae gwelliant 50 yn adeiladu ar y wybodaeth y gellir ei chynnwys ar y platfform er mwyn gosod yr wybodaeth a geir ynddo yn ei gyd-destun ehangach, fel hanes datganoli—rhywbeth sydd wedi bod ar flaen ein meddyliau yn ystod y dyddiau…

Grŵp 7: Amrywiaeth ymhlith personau sy’n ceisio swydd etholedig (Gwelliannau 107, 24, 52, 53, 110, 32, 43)
As we heard, amendment 52 adds 'security' to the list of services that it is permissible to provide in order to improve diversity of candidates. Amendment 53 adds care-related expenses to the list of expenses that financial assistance can be provided in…

Grŵp 6: Cymorth i bleidleiswyr ag anableddau (Gwelliannau 9, 111)
Thank you, Counsel General, for the explanation as to the position of the Government. I have to say that I don't think that it meets I think reasonable expectations from stakeholders. On that basis, I will still be pressing our amendment to a vote and will be…

Grŵp 6: Cymorth i bleidleiswyr ag anableddau (Gwelliannau 9, 111)
Diolch, Cadeirydd. Yng Nghyfnod 1, nododd y pwyllgor yma: 'Er bod y Memorandwm Esboniadol yn rhoi manylion sylweddol am fwriad Llywodraeth Cymru i wneud newidiadau tebyg ar gyfer etholiadau Cymreig, nid yw’r rhan fwyaf o’r newidiadau hyn yn cael eu gwneud yn…

I've found the discussion very useful and the discussion, I'm sure, will continue as we all consider this as a potential development in terms of our democracy here. So, I won't be moving these amendments in relation to universal civic duty voting to a vote at…

I was just wondering if you could say a little bit more about the legal point that you are making. If I summarise, you are saying that, as the Bill is currently constituted, you couldn't do an election pilot, if policy was in favour, on universal civic duty…

Just to slightly strike a more positive note, I've always been a person in a hurry and I would like tomorrow to arrive much quicker, but it's not true completely that there is no appetite for democratic innovation at a local government level. Certainly I'm…

Gaf i droi at y gwelliannau eraill? Rydym yn cefnogi gwelliant 101 i fedru peilota cylch etholiadol o bedair blynedd—dyna sut dwi'n dehongli bwriad y gwelliant—a gwelliant 104 yn creu dyletswydd i beilota mewn ardaloedd gwledig a threfol, lle bo hynny’n…

I should just say that the Counsel General may in his remarks say, 'Well, actually, the Bill already allows that facility because it allows Ministers to add further to the electoral matters that can be piloted under the provisions of the Bill', which would be…

So, amendment 7 simply specifies an enabling power to bring forward a pilot in relation to universal civic duty voting, which is defined through a consequential amendment. It's the term that I prefer to use, many of us prefer to use, that's supported with a…

Gaf i droi, felly, at welliant 127, sydd hefyd yn rhan o'r grŵp yma, sydd yn hen bwnc trafod yng ngwleidyddiaeth Cymru ac, a dweud y gwir, hefyd mewn ardaloedd eraill lle mae ail gartrefi yn ffenomenon eang? Mae yna nifer o ymgeisiadau wedi bod yn y…

Diolch yn fawr iawn, Cadeirydd. Mae gwelliant arweiniol y grŵp yma, 99, yn ceisio ymestyn y cyfnod hysbysu o 45 i 60 diwrnod, fel y clywon ni, ac, ar ôl hynny, bydd y person yn cael ei gofrestru i bleidleisio heb gais. Rydym ni o blaid dileu neu leihau…
