Report with respect to the areas comprised in the Constituencies of Brecon and Radnorshire, and Merthyr Tydfil and Rhymney.

TO THE RIGHT HONOURABLE NICK CLEGG MP

Her Majesty’s Secretary of State

A. INTRODUCTION

1. The Boundary Commission for Wales is established and constituted under Schedule 1 to the Parliamentary Constituencies Act 1986 (described in this report as the 1986 Act) for the purpose, as laid down in Section 2(1) of that Act, of the continuous review of the distribution of seats at Parliamentary elections. Under Section 3(1) of the 1986 Act, we are required to submit to the Secretary of State, not less than eight or more than twelve years from the date of the submission of our last report, a report showing the constituencies into which we recommend that Wales should be divided in accordance with the Rules for Redistribution of Seats. These Rules form Schedule 2 to the 1986 Act and are set out in Appendix A to this report.

2. The Government of Wales Act 1998 (described in this report as the 1998 Act) established the National Assembly for Wales, and under Schedule 1 to that Act we are required to undertake reviews of the Assembly electoral regions at the same time as general reviews of Parliamentary constituencies in accordance with the Rules set out in paragraph 8 of Schedule 1. These Rules are set out in Appendix B to this report.

3.

4. The Merthyr Tydfil and Powys (Pontsticill) Order 2009 came into operation on 1 May 2009 and made changes to the boundary between the County Borough of Merthyr Tydfil and the County of Powys. In addition the Preserved Counties of Powys and Mid Glamorgan (Changes in Area) Order 2010 came into operation on 1 April 2010 and makes corresponding changes to the boundary of the preserved counties. As a result of this Order the boundary between Merthyr Tydfil and Rhymney County Constituency (CC) and Brecon and Radnorshire CC no longer follows the county boundary and so the Commission decided to carry out a review of the affected area under section 3 (3) of the 1986 Act.

5. We gave notice of our intention to commence the review on 21 December 2009 and proceeded as expeditiously as full consideration of all the representations allowed. From start to finish the review has taken nine months to complete.

Our most recent report on a general review (HC 743-I)) was submitted on 31 January 2005 and our recommendations were given effect by Order in Council made on 11 April 2006 (SI 2006 No. 1041). The new constituencies in respect of the National Assembly for Wales took effect at the Assembly election on 3 May 2007 and in respect of the Parliamentary constituencies at the general election on 6 May 2010.

2

6. We would like to thank our assessors for the help they have provided at meetings: and we would also like to thank our translators, who have often been asked to meet very short deadlines.

7. Our Secretary is Mr Edward Lewis. He was supported by the secretariat: Mr Stephen

Halsall, Mr Matthew Redmond, Mr David Carr, Mrs Liza Brough, Mr Ralph Handscomb, Mrs Abigail Prescott-Bird, Mr David Burley, Miss Leanne Jones and Mrs Catherine Thomas.

8. The Deputy Chairman has presided over all our meetings during the course of the review. As Chairman of each of the four Boundary Commissions, the Speaker of the House of Commons has been kept informed of our work, as the review has progressed.

3

B. PROVISIONAL RECOMMENDATIONS 9. We issued our provisional recommendations on 1 June 2010 and published notification of

these in local newspapers, in the English and Welsh languages, circulating in the constituencies affected, inviting representations to be made within the statutory period of one calendar month. Copies of these recommendations, with illustrative maps, were made available for public inspection at convenient places within the constituencies and on the Commission’s web site at www.bcomm-wales.gov.uk.

10. The Merthyr Tydfil and Powys (Pontsticill) Order 2009 came into operation on 1 May 2009

and made changes to the boundary between the County Borough of Merthyr Tydfil and the County of Powys. In addition the Preserved Counties of Powys and Mid Glamorgan (Changes in Area) Order 2010 came into operation on 1 April 2010 and makes corresponding changes to the boundary of the preserved counties. As a result of this Order the boundary between Merthyr Tydfil and Rhymney CC and Brecon and Radnorshire CC no longer follows the county boundary, affecting 18 electors. Our provisional recommendations were that the constituency boundary be altered to conform with the new county boundary, transferring the 18 electors from Brecon and Radnorshire CC to Merthyr Tydfil and Rhymney CC.

11. The National Assembly for Wales constituencies are the parliamentary constituencies. The

change to the parliamentary constituencies proposed in our provisional recommendations would therefore involve a change to the National Assembly for Wales constituencies of Merthyr Tydfil and Rhymney and, Brecon and Radnorshire.

12. The Merthyr Tydfil and Rhymney constituency is included within the South Wales East

Assembly electoral region and the Brecon and Radnorshire constituency is included within the Mid and West Wales Assembly electoral region. As a consequence of the proposed changes to the Parliamentary constituencies, the electorate of the South Wales East Assembly electoral region would increase by 18 electors, and the electorate of the Mid and West Wales Assembly electoral region would see a corresponding decrease. The Commission considered that this minor change, involving a small number of electors, did not require a change to the membership of the Assembly electoral regions.

4

C. REPRESENTATIONS RECEIVED 13. One representation (at i below) was received in respect of our provisional recommendations

during the statutory one month period:

i. Powys County Council supported our proposals.

14. As no representations objecting to our proposals were received from a principal council nor from a body of electors numbering one hundred or more, there was no requirement by section 6(2) of the Act to hold a local inquiry before proceeding with our recommendations.

5

D. FINAL RECOMMENDATIONS 15. We recommend the adoption of our provisional recommendations as follows:

i. the boundary between Merthyr Tydfil and Rhymney County Constituency and Brecon and Radnorshire County Constituency to be altered to conform with the county boundary between the County Borough of Merthyr Tydfil and the County of Powys as changed by the Merthyr Tydfil and Powys (Pontsticill) Order 2009; and

ii. the boundary between the South Wales East Assembly electoral region and the Mid

and West Wales Assembly electoral region to be altered so as to conform to the change recommended at i. above and the Preserved Counties of Powys and Mid Glamorgan (Changes in Area) Order 2010 .

16. The detailed composition of the two recommended constituencies is set out in Appendix D.

Maps illustrating the recommended changes are at Appendices E and F. The Honourable Mr Justice David Lloyd Jones, Deputy Chairman Mr Paul Wood Mr John Bader Edward Lewis, Joint Secretary October 2010

6. A Boundary Commission may depart from the strict application of rules 4 and 5 if special

geographical considerations, including in particular the size, shape and accessibility of a constituency, appear to them to render a departure desirable.

Appendix A

7

General and Supplementary 7. It shall not be the duty of a Boundary Commission to aim at giving full effect in all

circumstances to the above rules, but they shall take account so far as they reasonably can -

(a) of the inconveniences attendant on alterations of constituencies other than alterations made for the purposes of rule 4, and

electorate for each other Assembly electoral region as is reasonably practicable, having regard (where appropriate) to special geographical considerations.

3. The total number of Assembly seats for the Assembly electoral regions shall be -

(a) one half of the total number of the Assembly constituencies, or (b) (if that total number is not exactly divisible by two) one half of the

number produced by adding one to that total number.

(2) If the total number of Assembly seats for the electoral Assembly regions is not exactly

divisible by five, the Commission shall calculate the difference between -

electoral region. (4) The Commission shall divide the regional electorate for each Assembly electoral region

by the aggregate of -

STATEMENT ON THE USE OF THE WELSH LANGUAGE 1. The Boundary Commission for Wales has adopted the principle that in the conduct of public

business in Wales, it will treat the Welsh and English languages on a basis of equality. 2. Section 7 of the Welsh Language Act 1993 requires public bodies, who provide services to

the public in Wales, to have a Welsh language scheme. In the preparation of such a scheme, account must be taken of the guidelines issued by the Welsh Language Board (WLB). The Commission prepared a scheme, which the WLB approved on 10 November 1997. A copy of the scheme is available on request and is available on the Commission’s web site.

3. The undertakings contained in the Welsh language scheme are:

(a) all documents published by the Commission will be published in both languages; (b) all Commission stationery will be printed bilingually and contain a standard

statement that the Commission welcomes contact in the Welsh language;

(c) correspondence initiated by the Commission with individuals or groups who are known to prefer corresponding through the medium of Welsh will be sent in Welsh;

(d) newsletters, news releases, press notices, information booklets, public inquiry

statements, reports to the Deputy Prime Minister and any other material published by the Commission will be produced bilingually (and as one document) and shall contain a standard statement that the Commission welcome contact in the Welsh language;

(e) any headings, keys, legends, lists, explanatory notes or copyright warnings added by

the Commission to maps procured from map suppliers, will be produced bilingually;

(f) the Commission will endeavour to engage, whenever possible, Welsh speaking Assistant Commissioners to conduct its public inquiries when it is anticipated that there might be a number of Welsh speaking contributors;

(g) the Commission will engage professional external translators to attend its public

inquiries to provide an instantaneous interpretation service;

(h) the Commission will endeavour to employ a Welsh speaker amongst its Secretariat whenever new staff are recruited. To further this aim, the Commission will include the ability to speak Welsh as a desirable requirement for posts within its Secretariat;

(i) the Commission will reply to all correspondence in the language chosen by the

correspondent;

(j) the Commission will respond to all correspondence within ten working days of receipt of a letter regardless of whether the reply is to be sent in English, Welsh, or bilingually; and

(k) the Commission will answer all telephone calls in the language chosen by the caller.

Appendix C

11

4. The Commission are committed to ensuring adequate provision of interpretation services at local inquiries. They have agreed that two interpreters should be in attendance at each local inquiry.

Report with respect to the areas comprised in the Constituencies of Ogmore and Pontypridd.



A. INTRODUCTION

1. The Boundary Commission for Wales is established and constituted under Schedule 1 to the Parliamentary Constituencies Act 1986 (described in this report as the 1986 Act) for the purpose, as laid down in Section 2(1) of that Act, of the continuous review of the distribution of seats at Parliamentary elections. Under Section 3(1) of the 1986 Act, we are required to submit to the Secretary of State, not less than eight or more than twelve years from the date of the submission of our previous report, a report showing the constituencies into which we recommend that Wales should be divided in accordance with the Rules for Redistribution of Seats. These Rules form Schedule 2 to the 1986 Act and are set out in Appendix A to this report.


3. Our most recent report on a general review (HC 743-I) was submitted on 31 January 2005 and our recommendations were given effect by Order in Council made on 11 April 2006 (SI 2006 No. 1041). The new constituencies in respect of the National Assembly for Wales took effect at the Assembly election on 3 May 2007 and in respect of the Parliamentary constituencies at the general election on 6 May 2010.

4. The Rhondda Cynon Taf (Llanharan, Llanharry, Llantrisant and Pont-y-clun Communities) Order 2008 came into operation on 8 December 2008 and made changes to the boundaries of the Communities of Llanharan, Llanharry, Llantrisant and Pont-y-clun. As a result of this Order the boundary between Ogmore County Constituency and Pontypridd County Constituency no longer follows the local government boundaries. The Commission have therefore, pursuant to its powers under Section 3 (3) of the 1986 Act and Schedule 1 of the 2006 Act, undertaken a review of the constituency and electoral region boundaries in the area.

5. We gave notice of our intention to commence the review on 1 August 2010 and proceeded as expeditiously as full consideration of all the representations allowed. From start to finish the review has taken eight months to complete.

7. Our Secretary is Mr Edward Lewis. He was supported by the secretariat: Mr Stephen Halsall, Mr Matthew Redmond, Mr David Carr, Mrs Liza Harris, Mrs Julie Williams, Mr Ralph Handscomb, Mrs Abigail Prescott-Bird, Mr David Burley, Mrs Catherine Thomas and Miss Caroline Roe.

B. PROVISIONAL RECOMMENDATIONS

9. We issued our provisional recommendations on 4 January 2011 and published notification of these in local newspapers, in the English and Welsh languages, circulating in the constituencies affected, inviting representations to be made within the statutory period of one calendar month. Copies of these recommendations, with illustrative maps, were made available for public inspection at convenient places within the constituencies and on the Commission’s web site at www.bcomm-wales.gov.uk.

10. The Rhondda Cynon Taf (Llanharan, Llanharry, Llantrisant and Pont-y-clun Communities) Order 2008 came into operation on 8 December 2008 and made changes to the boundaries of the Communities of Llanharan, Llanharry, Llantrisant and Pont-y-clun. As a result of this Order the boundary between Ogmore County Constituency and Pontypridd County Constituency no longer follows the local government boundaries, affecting a total of 829 electors. Our provisional recommendations were that the constituency boundary be altered to conform with the new local government boundaries, transferring the a total of 733 electors from Ogmore CC to Pontypridd CC and 96 electors from Pontypridd CC to Ogmore CC.

11. The National Assembly for Wales constituencies are the parliamentary constituencies. The change to the parliamentary constituencies proposed in our provisional recommendations would therefore involve a change to the National Assembly for Wales constituencies of Ogmore and Pontypridd.

12. The Ogmore constituency is included within the South Wales West Assembly electoral region and the Pontypridd constituency is included within the South Wales Central Assembly electoral region. As a consequence of the proposed changes to the Parliamentary constituencies, the electorate of the South Wales Central Assembly electoral region would increase by 637 electors, and the electorate of the South Wales West Assembly electoral region would see a corresponding decrease. The Commission considered that this minor change, involving a small number of electors, did not require a change to the membership of the Assembly electoral regions.

3

C. REPRESENTATIONS RECEIVED

13. Three representations (at i. to iii. below) were received in respect of our provisional recommendations during the statutory one month period:

i. Owen Smith MP wrote to support the provisional recommendations and request a further change in the future.

ii. Rhondda Cynon Taf County Borough Council wrote to support the provisional recommendations.

iii. Pont-y-clun Community Council wrote to fully support the provisional recommendations.


4

D. FINAL RECOMMENDATIONS

15. We recommend the adoption of our provisional recommendations as follows:

i. the boundary between Ogmore County Constituency and Pontypridd County Constituency to be altered to conform with the local government boundaries within the County Borough of Rhondda Cynon Taf as changed by the Rhondda Cynon Taf (Llanharan, Llanharry, Llantrisant and Pont-y-clun Communities) Order 2008; and

ii. the boundary between the South Wales Central Assembly electoral region and the South Wales West Assembly electoral region to be altered so as to conform to the change recommended at i. above.

16. The detailed composition of the two recommended constituencies is set out in Appendix D. Maps illustrating the recommended changes are at Appendices E and F.

In the preparation of such a scheme, account must be taken of the guidelines issued by the Welsh Language Board (WLB). The Commission prepared a scheme, which the WLB approved on 10 November 1997. A copy of the scheme is available on request and is available on the Commission’s web site.

Report with respect to the areas comprised in the Constituencies of Cardiff North and Cardiff South and Penarth.



A. INTRODUCTION




4. The City and County of Cardiff (Old St. Mellons, Rumney and Trowbridge Communities) Order 2009 came into operation on 1 December 2009 and made changes to the boundaries between the Communities of Old St. Mellons, Rumney and Trowbridge. As a result of this Order the boundary between Cardiff North Borough Constituency and Cardiff South and Penarth Borough Constituency no longer follows the local government boundaries. The Commission have therefore, pursuant to its powers under Section 3 (3) of the 1986 Act and Schedule 1 of the 2006 Act, undertaken a review of the constituency and electoral region boundaries in the area.

1



7. Our Secretary is Mr Edward Lewis. He was supported by the secretariat: Mr Stephen Halsall, Mr Matthew Redmond, Mr David Carr, Mrs Liza Harris, Mrs Julie Williams, Mr Ralph Handscomb, Mrs Abigail Prescott-Bird, Mr David Burley, Mrs Catherine Thomas and Miss Caroline Roe.

10. The City and County of Cardiff (Old St. Mellons, Rumney and Trowbridge Communities) Order 2009 came into operation on 1 December 2009 and made changes to the boundaries between the Communities of Old St. Mellons, Rumney and Trowbridge. As a result of this Order the boundary between Cardiff North Borough Constituency and Cardiff South and Penarth Borough Constituency no longer follows the local government boundaries, affecting a total of 46 electors. Our provisional recommendations were that the constituency boundary be altered to conform with the new local government boundaries, transferring the a total of 46 electors from Cardiff South and Penarth BC to Cardiff North BC.

11. The National Assembly for Wales constituencies are the parliamentary constituencies. The change to the parliamentary constituencies proposed in our provisional recommendations would therefore involve a change to the National Assembly for Wales constituencies of Cardiff North and Cardiff South and Penarth.

12. The Cardiff North and Cardiff South and Penarth constituencies are both included within the South Wales Central Assembly electoral region therefore no changes are made to the electoral regions.

3


13. No representations were received in respect of our provisional recommendations during the statutory one month period:


4



i. the boundary between Cardiff North Borough Constituency and Cardiff South and Penarth Borough Constituency to be altered to conform with the local government boundaries within the County of Cardiff as changed by the City and County of Cardiff (Old St. Mellons, Rumney and Trowbridge Communities) Order 2009.

16. The detailed composition of the two recommended constituencies is set out in Appendix D. Maps illustrating the recommended changes are at Appendix E.

Report with respect to the areas comprised in the Constituencies of Cardiff South and Penarth and Vale of Glamorgan.



A. INTRODUCTION




4. The Vale of Glamorgan (Communities) Order 2010 came into operation on 18 May 2010 and made changes to the boundary between the Llandough and Michaelston Communities of the County Borough of The Vale of Glamorgan. As a result of this Order the boundary between Cardiff South and Penarth Borough Constituency and Vale of Glamorgan County Constituency no longer follows the local government boundary. The Commission have therefore, pursuant to its powers under Section 3 (3) of the 1986 Act and Schedule 1 of the 2006 Act, undertaken a review of the constituency and electoral region boundaries in the area.


1


7. Our Secretary is Mr Edward Lewis. He was supported by the secretariat: Mr Stephen Halsall, Mr Matthew Redmond, Mr David Carr, Mrs Liza Brough, Mrs Julie Williams, Mr Ralph Handscomb, Mrs Abigail Prescott-Bird, Mr David Burley, Mrs Catherine Thomas and Miss Caroline Roe.

10. The Vale of Glamorgan (Communities) Order 2010 came into operation on 18 May 2010 and made changes to the boundary between the Llandough and Michaelston Communities of the County Borough of The Vale of Glamorgan. As a result of this Order the boundary between Cardiff South and Penarth Borough Constituency and Vale of Glamorgan County Constituency no longer follows the local government boundary, affecting a total of 3 electors. Our provisional recommendations were that the constituency boundary be altered to conform with the new local government boundaries, transferring the a total of 3 electors from Cardiff South and Penarth BC to Vale of Glamorgan CC.

11. The National Assembly for Wales constituencies are the parliamentary constituencies. The change to the parliamentary constituencies proposed in our provisional recommendations would therefore involve a change to the National Assembly for Wales constituencies of Cardiff South and Penarth and the Vale of Glamorgan.

12. The Cardiff South and Penarth and Vale of Glamorgan constituencies are both included within the South Wales Central Assembly electoral region therefore no changes are made to the electoral regions.

3


13. No representations were received in respect of our provisional recommendations during the statutory one month period:


4



i. the boundary between Cardiff South and Penarth Borough Constituency and the Vale of Glamorgan County Constituency to be altered to conform with the local government boundary within the County Borough of The Vale of Glamorgan as changed by the Vale of Glamorgan (Communities) Order 2010.

16. The detailed composition of the two recommended constituencies is set out in Appendix D. Maps illustrating the recommended changes are at Appendix E.

Comisiwn Ffiniau i Gymru

Adroddiad yngl n â’r ardaloedd a gynhwysir yn etholaethau Brecon and Radnorshire, a Merthyr Tydfil and Rhymney.

I’R GWIR ANRHYDEDDUS NICK CLEGG AS

Ysgrifennydd Gwladol Ei Mawrhydi

A. CYFLWYNIAD

1. Mae’r Comisiwn Ffiniau i Gymru wedi’i sefydlu a’i gyfansoddi o dan Atodlen 1 Deddf Etholaethau Seneddol 1986 (a ddisgrifir yn yr adroddiad hwn fel Deddf 1986) at ddiben, fel y nodir yn Adran 2(1) y Ddeddf honno, arolygu’n barhaus ddosbarthiad seddau mewn etholiadau Seneddol. O dan Adran 3(1) Deddf 1986, mae’n ofynnol i ni gyflwyno adroddiad i’r Ysgrifennydd Gwladol sy’n dangos yr etholaethau yr argymhellwn y dylid rhannu Cymru iddynt yn unol â’r Rheolau ar gyfer Ailddosbarthu Seddau, a hynny nid llai nag wyth mlynedd na mwy na deuddeng mlynedd o ddyddiad cyflwyno ein hadroddiad blaenorol. Mae’r Rheolau hyn yn ffurfio Atodlen 2 Deddf 1986 ac fe’u nodir yn Atodiad A yr adroddiad hwn.

2. Sefydlodd Deddf Llywodraeth Cymru 1998 (a ddisgrifir yn yr adroddiad hwn fel Deddf 1998) Gynulliad Cenedlaethol Cymru, ac o dan Atodlen 1 y Ddeddf honno mae’n ofynnol i ni gynnal arolygon o ranbarthau etholiadol y Cynulliad ar yr un pryd ag arolygon cyffredinol o etholaethau Seneddol, yn unol â’r Rheolau a nodir ym mharagraff 8 Atodlen 1. Nodir y Rheolau hyn yn Atodiad B i’r adroddiad hwn.

3.

4. Daeth Gorchymyn Merthyr Tudful a Phowys (Pontsticill) 2009 i rym ar 1 Mai 2009 gan newid y ffin rhwng Bwrdeistref Sirol Merthyr Tudful a Sir Powys. Yn ogystal, daeth Gorchymyn Siroedd Wedi'u Cadw Powys a Morgannwg Ganol (Newid yn Ardaloedd) 2010i rym ar 1 Ebrill 2010 sy’n gwneud newidiadau cyfatebol i ffin y siroedd wedi’u cadw. O ganlyniad i’r Gorchymyn hwn, nid yw’r ffin rhwng Etholaeth Sirol (ES) Merthyr Tydfil andRhymney ac Etholaeth Sirol Brecon and Radnorshire bellach yn dilyn y ffin sirol ac, felly, penderfynodd y Comisiwn gynnal arolwg o’r ardal yr effeithiwyd arni yn unol ag adran 3 (3) o Ddeddf 1986.

5. Rhoddom wybod am ein bwriad i ddechrau'r arolwg ar 21 Rhagfyr 2009 ac aethpwyd ati mor gyflym ag y caniataodd ystyriaeth lawn o’r holl gynrychiolaethau. O’r dechrau i’r diwedd, mae’r adroddiad wedi cymryd naw mis i’w gwblhau.

Cyflwynwyd ein hadroddiad diweddaraf ynghylch arolwg cyffredinol (HC 743-I)) ar31 Ionawr 2005, a rhoddwyd ein hargymhellion ar waith gan Orchymyn yn y Cyfrin Gyngor a luniwyd ar 11 Ebrill 2006 (OS 2006 Rhif 1041). Daeth yr etholaethau newydd mewn perthynas â Chynulliad Cenedlaethol Cymru i rym yn ystod etholiad y Cynulliad ar 3 Mai 2007, ac mewn perthynas ag etholaethau Seneddol, daeth yr etholaethau newydd i rym yn ystod yr etholiad cyffredinol ar 6 Mai 2010.

6. Hoffem ddiolch i’n haseswyr am eu cymorth mewn cyfarfodydd: a hoffem ddiolch hefyd i’n cyfieithwyr, y gofynnwyd iddynt yn aml fodloni terfynau amser cyfyng iawn. 7. Mr Edward Lewis yw ein Hysgrifennydd. Fe’i cynorthwywyd gan yr Ysgrifenyddiaeth: Mr

Stephen Halsall, Mr Matthew Redmond, Mr David Carr, Mrs Liza Brough, Mr Ralph Handscomb, Mrs Abigail Prescott-Bird, Mr David Burley, Miss Leanne Jones a Mrs Catherine Thomas.

8. Mae’r Dirprwy Gadeirydd wedi llywyddu ein holl gyfarfodydd yn ystod cyfnod yr arolwg. Fel Cadeirydd pob un o’r pedwar Comisiwn Ffiniau, mae Llefarydd T ’r Cyffredin wedi cael y wybodaeth ddiweddaraf am ein gwaith wrth i’r arolwg fynd yn ei flaen.

3

B. ARGYMHELLION DROS DRO 9. Cyhoeddom ein darpar argymhellion ar 1 Mehefin 2010, a chyhoeddwyd hysbysiad o’r

rhain mewn papurau newydd lleol, yn y Gymraeg a’r Saesneg, a oedd yn cylchredeg yn yr etholaethau yr effeithiwyd arnynt, gan wahodd cynrychiolaethau cyn pen y cyfnod statudol o un mis calendr. Sicrhawyd bod copïau o’r argymhellion hyn, ynghyd â mapiau eglurhaol, ar gael i’w harchwilio gan y cyhoedd mewn mannau cyfleus yn yr etholaethau yn ogystal ag ar wefan y Comisiwn ar www.bcomm-wales.gov.uk.

10. Daeth Gorchymyn Merthyr Tudful a Phowys (Pontsticill) 2009 i rym ar 1 Mai 2009 gan

newid y ffin rhwng Bwrdeistref Sirol Merthyr Tudful a Sir Powys. Yn ogystal, daeth Gorchymyn Siroedd Wedi'u Cadw Powys a Morgannwg Ganol (Newid yn Ardaloedd) 2010 i rym ar 1 Ebrill 2010 sy’n gwneud newidiadau cyfatebol i ffin y siroedd wedi’u cadw. O ganlyniad i’r Gorchymyn hwn, nid yw’r ffin rhwng Etholaeth Sirol Merthyr Tydfil and Rhymney ac Etholaeth Sirol Brecon and Radnorhshire bellach yn dilyn y ffin sirol, gan effeithio ar 18 o etholwyr. Ein hargymhellion dros dro oedd newid ffin yr etholaeth er mwyn cydymffurfio a’r ffin sirol newydd, a throsglwyddo’r 18 etholwr o Etholaeth Sirol Brecon and Radnorshire i Etholaeth Sirol Merthyr Tydfil and Rhymney.

11. Etholaethau seneddol yw etholaethau Cynulliad Cenedlaethol Cymru. Felly, byddai’r newid

i’r etholaethau seneddol a gynigir yn ein darpar argymhellion yn cynnwys newid etholaethau Cynulliad Cenedlaethol Cymru Merthyr Tydfil a Rhymney a Brecon and Radnorshire.

12. Cynhwysir etholaeth Merthyr Tydfil and Rhymney yn rhanbarth etholiadol Dwyrain De

Cymru y Cynulliad a chynhwysir Brecon and Radnorshire yn rhanbarth etholiadol Canolbarth a Gorllewin Cymru y Cynulliad. O ganlyniad i’r newidiadau arfaethedig i’r etholaethau Seneddol, byddai cynnydd o 18 o etholwyr yn rhanbarth etholiadol Dwyrain De Cymru y Cynulliad a byddai gostyngiad cyfatebol yn rhanbarth etholiadol Canolbarth a Gorllewin Cymru y Cynulliad. Roedd y Comisiwn o’r farn nad oedd y mân newid hwn, a oedd yn cynnwys nifer fach o etholwyr, yn ei wneud yn ofynnol newid cyfansoddiad rhanbarthau etholiadol y Cynulliad.

4

C. CYNRYCHIOLAETHAU A DDERBYNIWYD 13. Derbyniwyd un gynrychiolaeth (gweler i isod) ynghylch ein hargymellion dros dro yn ystod

y cyfnod statudol un mis:

i. Cefnogodd Cyngor Sir Powys ein cynigion.

14. Gan na dderbyniwyd unrhyw gynrychiolaethau yn gwrthwynebu’n cynigion gan brif gyngor nac unrhyw gorff o etholwyr a oedd yn gant neu fwy mewn nifer, nid oedd unrhyw ofyniad yn unol ag adran 6(2) o’r Ddeddf i gynnal ymchwiliad lleol cyn bwrw ymlaen â’n hargymellion.

5

D. ARGYMHELLION TERFYNOL

15. Argymhellwn fabwysiadu ein hargymhellion dros dro fel a ganlyn:

i. newid y ffin rhwng Etholaeth Sirol Merthyr Tydfil and Rhymney ac Etholaeth Sirol Brecon and Radnorshire i gydymffurfio â’r ffin sirol rhwng Bwrdeistref Sirol Merthyr Tudful a Sir Powys fel y newidiwyd gan Orchymyn Merthyr Tudful a Phowys (Pontsticill) 2009; a

ii. newid y ffin rhwng rhanbarth etholiadol Dwyrain De Cymru y Cynulliad a rhanbarth etholiadol Canolbarth a Gorllewin Cymru y Cynulliad i gydymffurfio â’r newid a argymhellir yn i. uchod ac yng Ngorchymyn Siroedd Wedi'u Cadw Powys a Morgannwg Ganol (Newid yn Ardaloedd) 2010.

16. Nodir cyfansoddiad manwl y ddwy etholaeth argymelledig yn Atodiad Ch. Ceir mapiau sy’n dangos y newidiadau argymelledig yn Atodiadau D a Dd.

2. Bydd nifer yr etholwyr rhanbarthol ar gyfer un o ranbarthau etholiadol y Cynulliad cyn

agosed i nifer yr etholwyr ar gyfer pob un o ranbarthau etholiadol eraill y Cynulliad ag y bo’n ymarferol, gan roi sylw (lle bo’n briodol) i ystyriaethau daearyddol arbennig.

3. Cyfanswm nifer seddau’r Cynulliad ar gyfer rhanbarthau etholiadol y Cynulliad fydd -

(a) hanner cyfanswm etholaethau’r Cynulliad, neu (b) (os na ellir rhannu’r cyfanswm hwnnw’n union â dau) hanner y nifer a

geir drwy ychwanegu un at y cyfanswm hwnnw.

4. Nifer seddau’r Cynulliad ar gyfer rhanbarth etholiadol y Cynulliad fydd -

(a) un rhan o bump o gyfanswm seddau’r Cynulliad ar gyfer rhanbarthau etholiadol y Cynulliad, neu

(b) (os na ellir rhannu’r cyfanswm hwnnw’n union â phump) naill ai un

rhan o bump o’r rhif uchaf sy’n llai na’r cyfanswm hwnnw y gellir ei rannu’n union â phump neu’r rhif a geir drwy ychwanegu un rhan o bump at y rhif hwnnw (fel y darperir gan is-baragraffau (2) i (4)).

(2) Os na ellir rhannu cyfanswm seddau’r Cynulliad ar gyfer rhanbarthau etholiadol y

Cynulliad â phump, bydd y Comisiwn yn cyfrifo’r gwahaniaeth rhwng -

(a) cyfanswm nifer y seddau ar gyfer rhanbarthau etholiadol y Cynulliad, a’r (b) rhif uchaf sy’n llai na’r cyfanswm hwnnw ac y gellir ei rannu’n union â phump,

a dyna nifer y seddau sy’n weddill i’r Comisiwn eu dyrannu.

(3) Ni fydd y Comisiwn yn dyrannu mwy nag un sedd sy’n weddill i ranbarth etholiadol y

Cynulliad. (4) Bydd y Comisiwn yn rhannu nifer yr etholwyr rhanbarthol ar gyfer pob rhanbarth

etholiadol y Cynulliad gyda chyfanswm o -

(a) nifer etholaethau’r Cynulliad yn rhanbarth etholiadol y Cynulliad, ac (b) un rhan o bump o’r rhif uchaf sy’n llai na chyfanswm y seddau ar gyfer

rhanbarthau etholiadol y Cynulliad ac y gellir ei rannu’n union â phump,

ac, wrth ddyrannu’r sedd neu’r seddau sy’n weddill i ranbarth neu ranbarthau etholiadol y Cynulliad bydd yn ystyried pa mor ddymunol yw dyrannu sedd neu seddau i ranbarth neu ranbarthau etholiadol y Cynulliad y mae’r cyfrifiad hwnnw’n cynhyrchu’r nifer neu’r niferoedd uchaf ar eu cyfer.

DATGANIAD YNGHYLCH DEFNYDDIO’R IAITH GYMRAEG 1. Mae'r Comisiwn Ffiniau i Gymru wedi mabwysiadu'r egwyddor y bydd yn trin y Gymraeg

a’r Saesneg yn gydradd wrth gynnal busnes cyhoeddus yng Nghymru. 2. Mae Adran 7 Deddf yr Iaith Gymraeg 1993, yn ei gwneud yn ofynnol i gyrff cyhoeddus,

sy’n darparu gwasanaethau i’r cyhoedd yng Nghymru lunio cynllun iaith Gymraeg. Wrth baratoi cynllun felly, rhaid ystyried y canllawiau a gyhoeddir gan Fwrdd yr Iaith Gymraeg (BIG). Paratowyd cynllun gan y Comisiwn, a chafodd ei gymeradwyo gan Fwrdd yr Iaith Gymraeg ar 10 Tachwedd 1997. Mae copi o’r cynllun ar gael ar gais, ac mae ar gael ar wefan y Comisiwn.

3. Dyma’r ymrwymiadau a gynhwysir yn y cynllun iaith Gymraeg:

(a) caiff pob dogfen a gyhoeddir gan y Comisiwn ei chyhoeddi yn y ddwy iaith;

(b) caiff holl bapur swyddfa’r Comisiwn ei argraffu’n ddwyieithog a bydd yn cynnwys datganiad safonol bod y Comisiwn yn croesawu cyfathrebu yn yr iaith Gymraeg;

(c) caiff gohebiaeth a ddechreuir gan y Comisiwn ag unigolion neu grwpiau y mae’n

hysbys eu bod yn well ganddynt ohebu yn Gymraeg ei anfon yn y Gymraeg;

(ch) caiff newyddlenni, datganiadau newyddion, datganiadau i’r wasg, llyfrynnau gwybodaeth, datganiadau am ymchwiliadau cyhoeddus, adroddiadau i’r Dirprwy Brif Weinidog ac unrhyw ddeunydd arall a gyhoeddir gan y Comisiwn eu cynhyrchu’n ddwyieithog (ac fel un ddogfen) a byddant yn cynnwys datganiad safonol bod y Comisiwn yn croesawu cyfathrebu yn yr iaith Gymraeg;

(d) caiff unrhyw benawdau, allweddau, eglurhadau, rhestri, nodiadau esboniadol neu

rybuddion hawlfraint a ychwanegir gan y Comisiwn at fapiau a brynwyd oddi wrth gyflenwyr mapiau eu cynhyrchu’n ddwyieithog;

(dd) lle bo modd, bydd y Comisiwn yn ceisio sicrhau Comisiynwyr Cynorthwyol sy’n

medru’r Gymraeg i gynnal ei ymchwiliadau cyhoeddus pan ragwelir y gall fod nifer o gyfranogwyr Cymraeg eu hiaith;

(e) bydd y Comisiwn yn trefnu bod cyfieithwyr allanol proffesiynol yn mynychu ei

ymchwiliadau cyhoeddus i ddarparu gwasanaeth cyfieithu ar y pryd;

(f) bydd y Comisiwn yn ceisio cyflogi siaradwyr Cymraeg yn ei Ysgrifenyddiaeth pan gaiff aelodau staff newydd eu recriwtio. I hyrwyddo’r nod hwn, bydd y Comisiwn yn cynnwys y gallu i siarad Cymraeg fel gofyniad dymunol ar gyfer swyddi yn ei Ysgrifenyddiaeth;

(ff) bydd y Comisiwn yn ateb yr holl ohebiaeth yn yr iaith a ddewiswyd gan y

gohebydd;

(g) bydd y Comisiwn yn ateb pob gohebiaeth cyn pen deg diwrnod gwaith o dderbyn llythyr, ni waeth os bydd angen ateb yn Gymraeg, yn Saesneg neu’n ddwyieithog; a

(ng) bydd y Comisiwn yn ateb pob galwad ffôn yn yr iaith a ddewisir gan y galwr.

Atodiad C

4. Mae’r Comisiwn wedi ymrwymo i sicrhau bod darpariaeth ddigonol o wasanaethau

cyfieithu ar y pryd ar gyfer ymchwiliadau lleol. Mae wedi cytuno y dylai dau gyfieithydd fynychu pob ymchwiliad lleol.

Mae’r Comisiwn wedi ymrwymo i benodi Comisiynwyr Cynorthwyol sy’n medru’r Gymraeg yn ystod ymchwiliadau lleol lle bo tebygolrwydd uchel y siaredir Cymraeg.

Comisiwn Ffiniau i Gymru Adroddiad ar berthynas yr ardaloedd a gynhwysir yn Etholaethau Ogmore a Pontypridd.

AT Y GWIR ANRHYDEDDUS NICK CLEGG AS

Ysgrifennydd Gwladol Ei Mawrhydi A. CYFLWYNIAD 1. Mae’r Comisiwn Ffiniau i Gymru wedi’i sefydlu a’i gyfansoddi o dan Atodlen 1 Deddf

Etholaethau Seneddol 1986 (a ddisgrifir yn yr adroddiad hwn fel Deddf 1986) at ddiben, fel y nodir yn Adran 2(1) y Ddeddf honno, arolygu’n barhaus ddosbarthiad seddau mewn etholiadau Seneddol. O dan Adran 3(1) Deddf 1986, mae’n ofynnol i ni gyflwyno adroddiad i’r Ysgrifennydd Gwladol sy’n dangos yr etholaethau yr argymhellwn y dylid rhannu Cymru iddynt yn unol â’r Rheolau ar gyfer Ailddosbarthu Seddau, a hynny nid llai nag wyth mlynedd na mwy na deuddeng mlynedd o ddyddiad cyflwyno ein hadroddiad blaenorol. Mae’r Rheolau hyn yn ffurfio Atodlen 2 Deddf 1986 ac fe’u nodir yn Atodiad A i’r adroddiad hwn.

2. Sefydlodd Deddf Llywodraeth Cymru 1998 (a ddisgrifir yn yr adroddiad hwn fel

Deddf 1998) Gynulliad Cenedlaethol Cymru, ac o dan Atodlen 1 y Ddeddf honno mae’n ofynnol i ni gynnal arolygon o ranbarthau etholiadol y Cynulliad ar yr un pryd ag arolygon cyffredinol o etholaethau Seneddol, yn unol â’r Rheolau a nodir ym mharagraff 8 Atodlen 1. Nodir y Rheolau hyn yn Atodiad B i’r adroddiad hwn.

3. Cyflwynwyd ein hadroddiad diweddaraf ynghylch arolwg cyffredinol (HC 743-I) ar 31

Ionawr 2005, a rhoddwyd ein hargymhellion ar waith gan Orchymyn yn y Cyfrin Gyngor a luniwyd ar 11 Ebrill 2006 (Offeryn Statudol 2006 Rhif 1041). Daeth yr etholaethau newydd mewn perthynas â Chynulliad Cenedlaethol Cymru i rym yn ystod etholiad y Cynulliad ar 3 Mai 2007, ac mewn perthynas ag etholaethau Seneddol, daeth yr etholaethau newydd i rym yn ystod yr etholiad cyffredinol ar 6 Mai 2010.

4. Daeth Gorchymyn Rhondda Cynon Taf (Cymunedau Llanharan, Llanhari,

Llantrisant a Phont-y-clun) 2008 i rym ar 8 Rhagfyr 2008 a newidiodd ffiniau Cymunedau Llanharan, Llanhari, Llantrisant a Phont-y-clun. O ganlyniad i’r Gorchymyn hwn, nid yw’r ffin rhwng Ogmore County Constituency a Pontypridd County Constituency yn dilyn ffiniau llywodraeth leol mwyach. Felly yn unol â’i bwerau o dan Adran 3 (3) Deddf 1986 ac Atodlen 1 Deddf 2006, mae’r Comisiwn wedi cynnal arolwg o ffiniau etholaethau a rhanbarthau etholiadol yn yr ardal.

5. Rhoddom wybod am ein bwriad i ddechrau'r arolwg ar 1 Awst 2010, ac aethpwyd ati

mor gyflym ag y caniataodd ystyriaeth lawn o’r holl gynrychiolaethau. O’r dechrau i’r diwedd, cymerodd wyth mis i gwblhau’r arolwg.

6. Hoffem ddiolch i’n haseswyr am eu cymorth mewn cyfarfodydd: a hoffem ddiolch hefyd i’n cyfieithwyr, y gofynnwyd iddynt yn aml fodloni terfynau amser cyfyng iawn.

7. Ein Hysgrifennydd yw Mr Edward Lewis. Cafodd gefnogaeth gan yr

ysgrifenyddiaeth: Mr Stephen Halsall, Mr Matthew Redmond, Mr David Carr, Mrs Liza Harris, Mrs Julie Williams, Mr Ralph Handscomb, Mrs Abigail Prescott-Bird, Mr David Burley, Mrs Catherine Thomas a Miss Caroline Roe.

B. ARGYMHELLION DROS DRO 9. Cyhoeddom ein darpar argymhellion ar 4 Ionawr 2011, a chyhoeddom hysbysiad o’r

rhain mewn papurau newydd lleol, yn y Gymraeg a’r Saesneg, a oedd yn cylchredeg yn yr etholaethau yr effeithiwyd arnynt, gan wahodd cynrychiolaethau cyn pen y cyfnod statudol o un mis calendr. Sicrhawyd bod copïau o’r argymhellion hyn, ynghyd â mapiau eglurhaol, ar gael i’w harchwilio gan y cyhoedd mewn mannau cyfleus yn yr etholaethau yn ogystal ag ar wefan y Comisiwn ar www.comffin.cymru.gov.uk.

10. Daeth Gorchymyn Rhondda Cynon Taf (Cymunedau Llanharan, Llanhari,

Llantrisant a Phont-y-clun) 2008, i rym ar 8 Rhagfyr 2008 a newidiwyd ffiniau Cymunedau Llanharan, Llanhari, Llantrisant a Phont-y-clun. O ganlyniad i’r Gorchymyn hwn, nid yw’r ffin rhwng Ogmore County Constituency a Pontypridd County Constituency yn dilyn ffiniau llywodraeth leol mwyach, gan effeithio ar gyfanswm o 829 o etholwyr. Ein hargymhellion dros dro oedd newid ffin yr etholaeth er mwyn cydymffurfio â’r ffiniau llywodraeth leol newydd gan drosglwyddo cyfanswm o 733 o etholwyr o Ogmore CC i Pontypridd CC a 96 o etholwyr o Pontypridd CC i Ogmore CC.

11. Etholaethau Cynulliad Cenedlaethol Cymru yw’r etholaethau seneddol. Felly,

byddai’r newid i’r etholaethau seneddol a gynigir yn ein hargymhellion dros dro yn cynnwys newid etholaethau Cynulliad Cenedlaethol Cymru ar gyfer Ogmore a Pontypridd.

12. Cynhwysir etholaeth Ogmore yn rhanbarth etholiadol Gorllewin De Cymru y

Cynulliad a chynhwysir etholaeth Pontypridd yn rhanbarth etholiadol Canol De Cymru y Cynulliad. O ganlyniad i’r newidiadau arfaethedig i’r etholaethau Seneddol, byddai cynnydd o 637 o etholwyr yn rhanbarth etholiadol South Wales Central y Cynulliad a gostyngiad cyfatebol yn rhanbarth etholiadol South Wales West y Cynulliad. Roedd y Comisiwn o’r farn nad oedd y mân newid hwn, a oedd yn cynnwys nifer fach o etholwyr, yn ei wneud yn ofynnol newid cyfansoddiad rhanbarthau etholiadol y Cynulliad.

C. CYNRYCHIOLAETHAU A GAFWYD 13. Cafwyd tair cynrychiolaeth (a gyflwynir ym mhwyntiau i i iii isod) yngl n â’n

hargymhellion dros dro cyn pen y cyfnod statudol o fis:

i. Ysgrifennodd Owen Smith AS i gefnogi’r argymhellion dros dro ac i ofyn am newid pellach yn y dyfodol.

ii. Ysgrifennodd Cyngor Bwrdeistref Sirol Rhondda Cynon Taf i gefnogi’r argymhellion dros dro.

iii. Ysgrifennodd Cyngor Cymuned Pont-y-clun i gefnogi’n llawn yr argymhellion dros dro.

14. Gan na chafwyd unrhyw gynrychiolaethau, oddi wrth y prif gyngor na chorff o gant o

etholwyr neu fwy, a oedd yn gwrthwynebu ein cynigion, nid oedd yn ofynnol, o dan adran 6(2) y Ddeddf, cynnal ymholiad lleol cyn rhoi ein hargymhellion ar waith.

4

D. ARGYMHELLION TERFYNOL 15. Argymhellwn fabwysiadu ein hargymellion dros dro fel a ganlyn:

i. bod y ffin rhwng Ogmore County Constituency a Pontypridd County Constituency i’w newid i gydymffurfio â ffin sirol rhwng Bwrdeistref Sirol Rhondda Cynon Taf fel y’i newidiwyd gan Orchymyn Rhondda Cynon Taf (Cymunedau Llanharan, Llanhari, Llantrisant a Phont-y-clun) 2008; a

ii. bod y ffin rhwng rhanbarth etholiadol Canol De Cymru y Cynulliad a rhanbarth etholiadol Gorllewin De Cymru y Cynulliad i’w newid er mwyn cydymffurfio â’r newid a argymhellwyd ym mhwynt i uchod.

. 16. Nodir cyfansoddiad manwl y ddwy etholaeth argymelledig yn Atodiad D. Ceir

mapiau sy’n dangos y newidiadau argymelledig yn Atodiadau E ac F. Yr Anrhydeddus Mr Ustus David Lloyd Jones, Dirprwy Gadeirydd Mr Paul Wood Mr John Bader Edward Lewis, Ysgrifennydd Mawrth 2011

Comisiwn Ffiniau i Gymru Adroddiad ar berthynas yr ardaloedd a gynhwysir yn Etholaethau Cardiff North a Cardiff South and Penarth.








4. Daeth Gorchymyn Dinas a Sir Caerdydd (Cymunedau Yr Hen Laneirwg, Tredelerch

a Trowbridge) 2009 i rym ar 1 Rhagfyr 2009 a newidiodd y ffiniau rhwng Cymunedau Yr Hen Laneirwg, Tredelerch a Trowbridge. O ganlyniad i’r Gorchymyn hwn, nid yw’r ffin rhwng Cardiff North Borough Constituency a Cardiff South and Penarth Borough Constituency yn dilyn ffiniau llywodraeth leol mwyach. Felly yn unol â’i bwerau o dan Adran 3 (3) Deddf 1986 ac Atodlen 1 Deddf 2006, mae’r Comisiwn wedi cynnal arolwg o ffiniau etholaethau a rhanbarthau etholiadol yn yr ardal.

10. Daeth Gorchymyn Dinas a Sir Caerdydd (Cymunedau Yr Hen Laneirwg, Tredelerch

a Trowbridge) 2009 i rym ar 1 Rhagfyr 2009 a newidiodd y ffiniau rhwng Cymunedau Pentref Llaneirwg, Tredelerch a Trowbridge. O ganlyniad i’r Gorchymyn hwn, nid yw’r ffin rhwng Cardiff North Borough Constituency a Cardiff South and Penarth Borough Constituency yn dilyn ffiniau llywodraeth leol mwyach, gan effeithio ar gyfanswm o 46 o etholwyr. Ein hargymhellion dros dro oedd newid ffin yr etholaeth er mwyn cydymffurfio â’r ffiniau llywodraeth leol newydd gan drosglwyddo cyfanswm o 46 o etholwyr o Cardiff South and Penarth BC i Cardiff North BC.


byddai’r newid i’r etholaethau seneddol a gynigir yn ein hargymhellion dros dro yn cynnwys newid etholaethau Cynulliad Cenedlaethol Cymru ar gyfer Cardiff North a Cardiff South and Penarth.

12. Cynhwysir etholaethau Cardiff North a Cardiff South and Penarth yn rhanbarth

etholiadol Canol De Cymru y Cynulliad felly ni wneir unrhyw newidiadau i’r rhanbarthau etholiadol.

C. CYNRYCHIOLAETHAU A GAFWYD 13. Ni chafwyd unrhyw gynrychiolaethau yngl n â’n hargymhellion dros dro cyn pen y

cyfnod statudol o fis.

14. Gan na chafwyd unrhyw gynrychiolaethau, oddi wrth y prif gyngor na chorff o gant o etholwyr neu fwy, a oedd yn gwrthwynebu ein cynigion, nid oedd yn ofynnol, o dan adran 6(2) y Ddeddf, cynnal ymholiad lleol cyn rhoi ein hargymhellion ar waith.

i. bod y ffin rhwng Cardiff North Borough Constituency a Cardiff South and Penarth Borough Constituency i’w newid i gydymffurfio â’r ffiniau llywodraeth leol yn Sir Caerdydd fel y’u newidiwyd gan Orchymyn Dinas a Sir Caerdydd (Cymunedau Yr Hen Laneirwg, Tredelerch a Trowbridge) 2009.

16. Nodir cyfansoddiad manwl y ddwy etholaeth argymelledig yn Atodiad D. Ceir

Comisiwn Ffiniau i Gymru Adroddiad ar berthynas yr ardaloedd a gynhwysir yn Etholaethau Cardiff South and Penarth a Vale of Glamorgan.








4. Daeth Gorchymyn Bro Morgannwg (Cymunedau) 2010 i rym ar 18 Mai 2010 a

newidiodd y ffin rhwng Cymuedau Llandochau a Llanfihangel-y-Pwll ym Mwrdeistref Sirol Bro Morgannwg. O ganlyniad i’r Gorchymyn hwn, nid yw’r ffin rhwng Cardiff South and Penarth Borough Constituency a Vale of Glamorgan County Constituency yn dilyn y ffin llywodraeth leol mwyach. Felly yn unol â’i bwerau o dan Adran 3 (3) Deddf 1986 ac Atodlen 1 Deddf 2006, mae’r Comisiwn wedi cynnal arolwg o ffiniau etholaethau a rhanbarthau etholiadol yn yr ardal.

10. Daeth Gorchymyn Bro Morgannwg (Cymunedau) 2010 i rym ar 18 Mai 2010 a

newidiodd y ffin rhwng Cymuedau Llandochau a Llanfihangel-y-pwll ym Mwrdeistref Sirol Bro Morgannwg. O ganlyniad i’r Gorchymyn hwn, nid yw’r ffin rhwng Cardiff South and Penarth Borough Constituency a Vale of Glamorgan County Constituency yn dilyn y ffin llywodraeth leol mwyach gan effeithio ar gyfanswm o 3 o etholwyr. Ein hargymhellion dros dro oedd newid ffin yr etholaeth er mwyn cydymffurfio â’r ffiniau llywodraeth leol newydd gan drosglwyddo cyfanswm o 3 o etholwyr o Cardiff South and Penarth BC i Vale of Glamorgan CC.


byddai’r newid i’r etholaethau seneddol a gynigir yn ein hargymhellion dros dro yn cynnwys newid etholaethau Cynulliad Cenedlaethol Cymru ar gyfer Cardiff South and Penarth a Vale of Glamorgan.

12. Cynhwysir etholaethau Cardiff South and Penarth a Vale of Glamorgan yn

rhanbarth etholiadol Canol De Cymru y Cynulliad felly ni wneir unrhyw newidiadau i’r rhanbarthau etholiadol.

C. CYNRYCHIOLAETHAU A GAFWYD 13. Ni chafwyd unrhyw gynrychiolaethau yngl n â’n hargymhellion dros dro cyn pen y

cyfnod statudol o fis.

14. Gan na chafwyd unrhyw gynrychiolaethau, oddi wrth y prif gyngor na chorff o gant o etholwyr neu fwy, a oedd yn gwrthwynebu ein cynigion, nid oedd yn ofynnol, o dan adran 6(2) y Ddeddf, cynnal ymholiad lleol cyn rhoi ein hargymhellion ar waith.
