Bil Senedd Cymru (Rhestrau Ymgeiswyr Etholiadol): Sesiwn dystiolaeth gyda’r Gweinidog Cyfiawnder Cymdeithasol a’r Prif Chwip
And that is the view of all Welsh Government lawyers, is it, and the advice that you've received?

Bil Senedd Cymru (Rhestrau Ymgeiswyr Etholiadol): Sesiwn dystiolaeth gyda’r Gweinidog Cyfiawnder Cymdeithasol a’r Prif Chwip
But, Minister, with respect, it is the time, isn't it? Because there was a recommendation in the special purpose committee report that the Welsh Government should take 'appropriate steps to ensure that...recommendations on Senedd reform...are not put at undue…

Bil Senedd Cymru (Rhestrau Ymgeiswyr Etholiadol): Sesiwn dystiolaeth gyda’r Gweinidog Cyfiawnder Cymdeithasol a’r Prif Chwip
And of course, it's not just the test about purpose, for which we are—. As I say, it's a noble purpose to want to have the Senedd to be a more representative Senedd and a more diverse Senedd. It's whether this impinges on a reserved matter. I've already…

Bil Senedd Cymru (Rhestrau Ymgeiswyr Etholiadol): Sesiwn dystiolaeth gyda’r Gweinidog Cyfiawnder Cymdeithasol a’r Prif Chwip
Yes. I mean, as we understand it from the legal advice that we have received, there are two tests that apply to any legislation. The first is this issue of the purpose of the Bill. A Bill, of course, can have a number of different purposes, as I understand…

Dadl ar Adroddiad y Pwyllgor Cyfrifon Cyhoeddus a Gweinyddiaeth Gyhoeddus, 'Adfywio Canol Trefi'
Rwy'n cytuno â llawer o'r hyn y mae'r Aelod yn ei ddweud. Un o'r pethau y credaf y gallai fod yn ddefnyddiol er mwyn mynd i'r afael â rhai o'r problemau hyn yw lleihau ardrethi busnes yng nghanol ein trefi a'n strydoedd mawr, eu cynyddu ar gyfer canolfannau…

Datganiad gan y Gweinidog Cyfiawnder Cymdeithasol a'r Prif Chwip: Bil Senedd Cymru (Rhestrau Ymgeiswyr Etholiadol)
Ie, rwy'n gallu gweld eich bod chi'n chwilio am fenyw. Rwyf i'n chwilio am agweddau eraill ar amrywiaeth sydd ar goll o'ch meinciau chi, Prif Weinidog, ac rwy'n siŵr y byddech chi'n derbyn bod angen i chi wneud yn well ynglŷn â'r rhai o grwpiau lleiafrifoedd…

Datganiad gan y Gweinidog Cyfiawnder Cymdeithasol a'r Prif Chwip: Bil Senedd Cymru (Rhestrau Ymgeiswyr Etholiadol)
A gaf i ddiolch i'r Gweinidog am y copi ymlaen llaw o ddatganiad heddiw ac, yn wir, am y briffio a gynhaliodd ar fy nghyfer i, gyda'i swyddogion, ar ddiwedd yr wythnos diwethaf? Mae'n rhaid i mi ddweud, rwy'n bryderus iawn ynglŷn â'r ffaith fod y Bil hwn yn…

Datganiad a Chyhoeddiad Busnes
A gaf i alw am ddau ddatganiad, os gwelwch yn dda, Trefnydd? Mae'r cyntaf mewn perthynas â'r cod presenoldeb ysgol, ac rwy'n deall nad yw wedi'i ddiweddaru nawr ers dros ddegawd. Mae'r cod hwnnw, wrth gwrs, yn penderfynu beth yw absenoldeb awdurdodedig, neu…

Grŵp 19: Darpariaeth drosiannol pe bai etholiad cyffredinol eithriadol yn arwain at beidio â chynnal etholiad cyffredinol cyffredin 2026 (Gwelliannau 84, 87, 88)
I'm looking forward to the general election, Mike, particularly in Clwyd North. Particularly in Clwyd North. So, as far as I can see, applying the provisions of this Bill to elections that could be less than 16 months after Royal Assent would be unacceptable…

Diolch, Llywydd. Yet again, we've got another set of amendments that have not been the subject of discussion or scrutiny by this Senedd that have been tabled by the Government this week. I don't know whether the Welsh Government is predicting that it's going…

Diolch, Llywydd. These amendments are significant. They introduce a significant new section into the Bill in relation to campaign expenditure, which has not been subject to committee scrutiny. To bring them forward at such a late stage is wholly unacceptable…

Diolch, Llywydd. Can I just thank the Minister for his acceptance of at least one of my amendments in this group? Just turning very briefly to Heledd Fychan's comments, I totally and completely support the need for a review of the funding mechanisms available…

Diolch, Llywydd. I move amendments 9 and 20, both tabled in my name. When we were debating the amendments in group 7, I explained why it was inappropriate for any legislation in this Senedd to place a duty on future Members of the Senedd or Welsh Parliament…
