201 | Cyfrifiad 2021
Rhoddodd Huw Davies, Rheolwr Ymgysylltu â’r Cyfrifiad, drosolwg o weithgareddau ymgysylltu ac yn benodol y nod i ymgysylltu â grwpiau na fyddai o bosibl yn gallu cyrchu’r dechnoleg sydd ei hangen i ymateb ar-lein. Gofynnodd am gymorth y Cyngor i hysbysu’r gymuned. Byddai pob cartref yn derbyn cod unigryw a chanolfan gynghori yn cael ei sefydlu. Byddai rhif ffôn rhad ac am ddim i ofyn am holiaduron papur ar gael hefyd. |
Census 2021
Huw Davies, Census Engagement Manager, provided an overview of engagement activities and in particular the aim to engage with groups who might not have access to the technology needed to respond online. He asked for Council’s help in informing the community. All households would receive a unique code and an advice centre set up. A freephone number to request paper questionnaires would also be available.

211 | Cynnig: Hamperi i wardiau Bronglais
(Cyng. Lucy Huws)
PENDERFYNWYD gefnogi’r cynnig canlynol: Cynigir fod y Cyngor yn defnyddio rhan o’r arian a glustnodwyd gan y Cyngor fel Cronfa Argyfwng Covid i brynu ‘hamper ‘ o fwyd / diod lleol a’u danfon i bob ward ac uned yn yr ysbyty fel rhan o werthfawrogiad Cyngor y Dref i waith diflino y staff. Deallir bod y staff yn flinedig a bod morale yn isel, a byddai gweithred bychan fel hon yn mynegi ein cefnogaeth, yn ogystal a dangos ein dealltwriaeth o aberth y rheng flaen dros y gymuned leol.
|
Motion: Bronglais Ward hampers
(Cllr Lucy Huws It was RESOLVED to support the following motion: It is proposed that the Council use some of the fund set aside as the Covid Emergency Fund, to buy hampers of locally produced food and drink, and deliver these to each ward at Bronglais Hospital as a token of the TC appreciation of the tireless work of frontline workers. It is understood that staff are exhausted and that morale is low, and this action, albeit a small gesture, would send a message of our support to them, and understanding of their sacrifice for the local community. |

212 | Cynnig: Bil Argyfwng Hinsawdd ac Ecoleg
(Cyng. Sue Jones-Davies)
PENDERFYNWYD gefnogi’r cynnig canlynol:
Mae’r Cyngor yn cefnogi’r Mesur Hinsawdd ac Argyfwng Ecolegol (a gyhoeddir fel y ‘Mesur Hinsawdd ac Ecoleg’) a fydd yn mynd gerbron y Senedd ac yn ôl hyn y mae’n rhaid i’r Llywodraeth ddatblygu strategaeth frys sy’n:

213 | Cynnig: Swyddi Llyfrgell Genedlaethol Cymru (Cyng. Sue Jones-Davies)
Ni chymerodd y Cynghorwyr Endaf Edwards a Mark Strong ran yn y drafodaeth.
PENDERFYNWYD gefnogi’r cynnig canlynol:
Mae Cyngor Tref Aberystwyth eisiau cofrestru ei bryder dwfn a’i siom fod y sefyllfa ariannol yn Llyfrgell Genedlaethol Cymru yn bygwth swyddi 30 o weithwyr. Mae’r Llyfrgell Genedlaethol yn un o’n Sefydliadau pwysicaf ac mae’n chwarae rhan hanfodol wrth hyrwyddo a diogelu ein diwylliant, ein hanes a’n hiaith. Mae’n ennyn parch yn rhyngwladol ac mae ganddo enw da ar draws y byd. Mae’n anochel y bydd y gostyngiadau hyn mewn staff yn cael effaith negyddol ar y gwasanaethau y mae’r llyfrgell yn eu cynnig ac yn lleihau ei statws ar lwyfan y byd.
Rydym yn deall bod cronfeydd wedi’u clustnodi gan Lywodraeth Cymru i helpu’r celfyddydau yn ystod y pandemig hwn a gofynnwn i Lywodraeth Cymru ailedrych ar ei strategaeth ariannu ar gyfer y Sefydliad Cenedlaethol hwn

Motion: National Library of Wales staffing
(Cllr Sue Jones-Davies) Cllrs Endaf Edwards and Mark Strong did not participate in the discussion
It was RESOLVED to support the following motion:
Aberystwyth Town Council wants to register its deep concern and dismay that the financial situation at the National Library of Wales is threatening the jobs of 30 employees. The National Library is one of our most important Institutions and plays a crucial role in the promotion and safeguarding of our culture, history, and language. It commands respect internationally and has a reputation that spans the globe. These reductions in staffing will inevitably have a negative effect on the services the library offers and diminish its status on the world stage. We understand funds have been earmarked by the Welsh Government to help the arts during this pandemic and we ask the Welsh Government to revisit its funding strategy for this National Institution.

214 | Cynnig: Plannu coed yn Dan y Coed
(Cyng. Talat Chaudhri)
PENDERFYNWYD gefnogi’r cynnig canlynol: Mae Cyngor Tref Aberystwyth, wedi i lawer o breswylwyr Dan y Coed ysgrifennu llythyrau at gynghorwyr, yn galw am blannu coed ar y tir yng nghanol y stryd, yn galw ar Gyngor Sir Ceredigion i gydweithio â Chyngor Tref Aberystwyth i sicrhau bod hyn yn digwydd cyn gynted ag sy’n bosibl a bod trefniadau’n cael eu gwneud i gynnal a chadw’r tir mewn ffordd gynhaliadwy.
|
Motion: Tree planting at Dan y Coed
(Cllr Talat Chaudhri)
It was RESOLVED to support the following motion: Aberystwyth Town Council, after many residents of Dan-y-Coed wrote letters to councillors calling for trees to be planted on the land in the middle of the street, calls upon Ceredigion County Council to work with Aberystwyth Town Council to ensure that this happens as soon as possible and that arrangements are put in place for the upkeep of the land in a sustainable manner.

215 | Cynnig: bwriad Llywodraeth San Steffan i fynd yn ôl ar eu cyfraniad 0.7% tuag at Gymorth Tramor.
(Cyng Lucy Huws):
PENDERFYNWYD gefnogi’r cynnig canlynol:
Bod Cyngor Tref Aberystwyth yn ysgrifennu fel corff at AS Ben Lake iddo ddefnyddio ei lais i wrthwynebu bwriad llywodraeth Boris Johnson yn San Steffan o fynd yn ôl ar ei gair, a thorri cyfran taliadau Prydain tuag at Ddatblygiad Rhyngwladol 0.7% o CMB. Mae’r arian yma yn cael ei wario ar gymorth dyngarol, neu help mewn argyfwng cenedlaethol, yn ogystal a bod yn fuddsoddiad mewn prosiectau hir-dymor fel brechu plant rhag heintiau, eu galluogi i gael addysg a mynychu ysgolion, helpu cymunedau i weithio ac i godi allan o dlodi, helpu gyda darpariaeth o fwyd yn erbyn newyn a meddygyniaethau. Yn y cyfnod o bandemic byd-eang mae yn fwy amlwg nag erioed bod yn hanfodol chyd-weithio a gweithredu ar raddfa fyd-eang er mwyn sicrhau tegwch a sicrwydd ein cymunedau ein hunain yn ogystal a rhai yn y gwledydd hynny sy’n derbyn y cymorth . Nid yw neb yn ddiogel nes bod pawb yn ddiogel.

Motion: Westminster Government’s intention to go back on the 0.7% contribution towards Foreign Aid.
(Cllr Lucy Huws)
It was RESOLVED to support the following motion: That Aberystwyth Town Council write as a body to M.P. Ben Lake to oppose Boris Johnson’s Westminster Government’s intention to go back on their commitment of a 0.7% contribution of GDP towards Foreign Aid. The UK’s foreign aid is spent on humanitarian aid or crisis relief, or in the pursuit of strategic and long-term goals. It is used to vaccinate children from preventable diseases, enabling them to go to school, and to help people work their way out of poverty.The provision of nutrition and medical care are also key goals. During this world wide covid pandemic, the importance of international cooperation and support is clearer than ever before, and this will serve the well-being and security of our own communities as well as those of the recipient countries. No one is safe until all are safe
