Rydym wedi cynnig gwelliannau i'r cynnig i geisio cwmpasu rhai o'r problemau ehangach yn rhwydwaith trafnidiaeth Cymru. Mae ein gwelliannau hefyd yn ceisio mynd i'r afael â'r rhwystrau sy'n atal cymunedau lleol rhag gwneud eu penderfyniadau trafnidiaeth eu…

Dadl y Ceidwadwyr Cymreig: Ffordd osgoi Cas-gwent
Diolch, Dirprwy Lywydd. Dwi'n symud y gwelliant.

Cynnig o dan Reol Sefydlog 26.91 yn ceisio cytundeb y Senedd i gyflwyno Bil Aelod—Bil Iaith Arwyddion Prydain (BSL) (Cymru)
Diolch i Mark am ddod â’r Bil Aelod hwn ger ein bron heddiw. Dymunaf yn dda i chi gyda'r datblygiad hwn. Hoffwn wneud un neu ddau o bwyntiau o blaid y Bil a'r manteision posibl o'i gyflwyno. Yn ddiweddar, bûm mewn cyfarfod gyda Cymorth i Fenywod Cymru, a buom…

Ymchwiliad i Atebolrwydd Aelodau Unigol: Sesiwn dystiolaeth 6
Just on this, wearing a different committee Chair's hat, I suppose, the financial aspects will need to be looked into carefully, and, as Mark said, that balance between the two. On that financial and possibly other aspect as well, should the person be allowed…

Sorry, if I may. Just on this point, regardless of whether or not the gender quota Bill goes through, there's a very good chance that parties will decide the zip within their lists anyway, because it's something that is a matter of principle. For example, if…

Okay. Well, I think that's exhausted my questions this morning. Thank you.

But the only alternative then is if somebody was elected as an independent. Do you then leave that seat vacant because that changes the balance?
17 Mehefin 2024 , Standards of Conduct Committee
Ymchwiliad i Atebolrwydd Aelodau Unigol: Sesiwn dystiolaeth 6
And on that list system, I'm assuming—and you'll correct me if I'm wrong—that it should be the initial list that that person was elected upon, rather than if that person had changed parties or changed to be sitting as an independent. So, it would…

And an alternative voting system or an STV system for a by-election is something that you wouldn't consider.

Ymchwiliad i Atebolrwydd Aelodau Unigol: Sesiwn dystiolaeth 6
And because it's a paired constituency, would you have a threshold of 10 per cent in one and in the other, or 10 per cent overall, or whatever the threshold would be?
17 Mehefin 2024 , Standards of Conduct Committee
Ymchwiliad i Atebolrwydd Aelodau Unigol: Sesiwn dystiolaeth 6
And you said earlier that 10 per cent feels about right, because, in a paired constituency, that would still be a substantial vote. If it reaches that 10 per cent, if it's held over time, when you reach the 10 per cent do you stop, or do you keep it going?…

Ymchwiliad i Atebolrwydd Aelodau Unigol: Sesiwn dystiolaeth 6
And would you have that on one specific date, similar to a by-election, or would you have it open for a number of weeks, similar to a recall petition in Westminster?
17 Mehefin 2024 , Standards of Conduct Committee
Ymchwiliad i Atebolrwydd Aelodau Unigol: Sesiwn dystiolaeth 6
That then leads to a threshold, rather than—. Would you allow people to vote by proxy, by post?

Ymchwiliad i Atebolrwydd Aelodau Unigol: Sesiwn dystiolaeth 6
In what you explained earlier, though, there'd be three options, but you're talking now as if it's a binary choice, or just one. How would you see it working? So, do you see it as a referendum where you've got two questions or a referendum where you've got…

Sorry, would a simple majority then be—?
17 Mehefin 2024 , Standards of Conduct Committee
Ymchwiliad i Atebolrwydd Aelodau Unigol: Sesiwn dystiolaeth 6
But there would be two candidates because the next person on the list would be the other candidate, potentially.

Ymchwiliad i Atebolrwydd Aelodau Unigol: Sesiwn dystiolaeth 6
Of course. Let's assume that a trigger has been hit, and one of those elements has happened, and that we are going through the process of a petition or another process. If we were having a recall petition—. We've had some evidence from lots of different…

Ymchwiliad i Atebolrwydd Aelodau Unigol: Sesiwn dystiolaeth 6
It depends, doesn't it? If we reduce the disqualification element down to six months, and then anything below six months would trigger, does that trigger automatically then trigger a recall or a petition or whatever process that we decide, or does it trigger…

Diolch, Cadeirydd. Bore da, Mick. Just on something that you said in relation to Vikki, and I asked the previous witness as well, if you changed the fact that the trigger could be a custodial sentence, possibly below six months—. Say somebody had a custodial…

Ymchwiliad i Atebolrwydd Aelodau Unigol: Sesiwn dystiolaeth 5
Just a quick question around if we've got a robust systems to trigger a petition or a process. Something that occurred to me: if somebody had a prison sentence on a matter of conscience, is that different from anything else, or would it still be subject to…

And if the individual resigned during that six weeks, or three weeks or whatever, would you just stop the petition?
