A wnaiff Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet amlinellu sut y mae, drwy ddeddfwriaeth Cymru, yn bwriadu gweithredu'r elfennau hynny o Ddeddf Lleoliaeth 2011 y mae cymunedau yn Lloegr yn eu mwynhau, ond nad ydynt wedi'u cyflwyno yma yng Nghymru hyd yn hyn?
The Localism Act 2011 covered many issues including the openness and transparency of local government. These are principles which the Welsh Government takes seriously and where the provisions in the Localism Act were felt to be appropriate for Wales they have been implemented, for example, pay policy guidance and statements.
As you will be aware, I am currently consulting on local government reform through the White Paper: “Reforming Local Government: Resilient and Renewed”. It covers much of the policy area included within the Localism Act but from a Welsh perspective. We will pursue our own programme of reform including a requirement for local authorities to prepare participation strategies and giving Welsh local authorities a General Power of Competence, a policy much supported by local government itself.
