Pa ystyriaeth y mae Llywodraeth Cymru wedi'i rhoi i gyflwyno gwiriadau gorfodol y Gwasanaeth Datgelu a Gwahardd (DBS) ar gyfer unigolion sy'n sefyll ar gyfer, neu'n gwasanaethu fel, aelodau etholedig o gynghorau tref, cymuned a sir yng Nghymru, yn enwedig o ystyried eu bod yn cael mynediad at unigolion agored i niwed a chartrefi preifat?
The Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS), including the eligibility criteria for DBS checks, is reserved to the UK Government. Before becoming candidates for local government elections, individuals must declare that they are not disqualified in any of the ways set out in legislation and guidance, which includes, but is not limited to, having a recent criminal conviction or by being subject to Part 2 of the Sexual Offences Act 2003. Finally, we would expect political parties to vet their own candidates before the candidacy is announced.
