O F F E R Y N N A U S T A T U D O L C Y M R U 2017 Rhif 1095 (Cy. 276) HADAU, CYMRU Rheoliadau Hadau (Diwygiadau Amrywiol) (Cymru) 2017 NODYN ESBONIADOL (Nid yw’r nodyn hwn yn rhan o’r Rheoliadau) Mae’r Rheoliadau hyn yn diwygio Rheoliadau Marchnata Hadau (Cymru) 2012 a Rheoliadau Tatws Hadyd (Cymru) 2016. Mae rheoliad 2 yn gweithredu Cyfarwyddeb Weithredu’r Comisiwn (EU) 2016/2109 sy’n diwygio Cyfarwyddeb 66/401/EEC i adlewyrchu’r newid i enw botanegol y rhywogaeth Lolium x boucheanum Kunth (OJ Rhif L 327, 2.12.2016, t. 59). Mae rheoliad 2 yn diwygio Rheoliadau Marchnata Hadau (Cymru) 2012 i adlewyrchu’r newid hwnnw i’r enw botanegol. Mae rheoliad 3 yn gweithredu Penderfyniad Gweithredu’r Comisiwn (EU) 2016/320 (“y Penderfyniad”). Mae’r Penderfyniad yn diwygio Penderfyniad 2004/842/EC ynghylch y rheolau sy’n caniatáu i Aelod-wladwriaethau awdurdodi rhoi ar y farchnad hadau sy’n perthyn i amrywogaethau y mae cais i’w cynnwys yn y catalog cenedlaethol o amrywogaethau planhigion amaethyddol neu o rywogaethau llysieuol wedi cael ei gyflwyno (OJ L 60, 5.3.2016, t. 88). Mae’r Penderfyniad yn cynnwys y gofyniad i rif cyfresol wedi ei neilltuo yn swyddogol gael ei nodi ar label swyddogol tatws had sydd wedi eu hawdurdodi i gael eu marchnata at ddibenion profion a threialon. Mae rheoliad 3 yn diwygio Rheoliadau Tatws Hadyd (Cymru) 2016 er mwyn adlewyrchu’r gofyniad hwnnw. Ystyriwyd Cod Ymarfer Gweinidogion Cymru ar gynnal Asesiadau Effaith Rheoleiddiol mewn perthynas â’r Rheoliadau hyn. O ganlyniad, ystyriwyd nad oedd yn angenrheidiol cynnal asesiad effaith rheoleiddiol o’r costau a’r manteision sy’n debygol o ddeillio o gydymffurfio â’r Rheoliadau hyn. W E L S H S T A T U T O R Y I N S T R U M E N T S 2017 No. 1095 (W. 276) SEEDS, WALES The Seed (Miscellaneous Amendments) (Wales) Regulations 2017 EXPLANATORY NOTE (This note is not part of the Regulations) These Regulations amend the Seed Marketing (Wales) Regulations 2012 and the Seed Potatoes (Wales) Regulations 2016. Regulation 2 implements Commission Implementing Directive (EU) 2016/2109 which amends Directive 66/401/EEC to reflect the change of the botanical name of the species Lolium x boucheanum Kunth (OJ No L 327, 2.12.2016, p. 59). Regulation 2 amends the Seed Marketing (Wales) Regulations 2012 to reflect that change of botanical name. Regulation 3 implements Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2016/320 (“the Decision”). The Decision amends Decision 2004/842/EC regarding the rules by which Member States may authorise the placing on the market of seed belonging to varieties for which an application for entry in the national catalogue of varieties of agricultural plant or vegetable species has been submitted (OJ L 60, 5.3.2016, p. 88). The Decision includes the requirement for an officially assigned serial number to be stated on the official label of seed potatoes that are authorised to be marketed for the purposes of tests and trials. Regulation 3 amends the Seed Potatoes (Wales) Regulations 2016 to reflect that requirement. The Welsh Ministers’ Code of Practice on the carrying out of Regulatory Impact Assessments was considered in relation to these Regulations. As a result, it was not considered necessary to carry out a regulatory impact assessment as to the likely costs and benefits of complying with these Regulations. 2 O F F E R Y N N A U S T A T U D O L C Y M R U 2017 Rhif 1095 (Cy. 276) HADAU, CYMRU Rheoliadau Hadau (Diwygiadau Amrywiol) (Cymru) 2017 Gwnaed 14 Tachwedd 2017 Gosodwyd gerbron Cynulliad Cenedlaethol Cymru 16 Tachwedd 2017 Yn dod i rym 15 Rhagfyr 2017 Mae Gweinidogion Cymru, drwy arfer y pwerau a roddir gan adran 16(1), (2) a (3) o Ddeddf Amrywogaethau a Hadau Planhigion 1964(1), ac a freiniwyd bellach ynddynt hwy(2), yn gwneud y Rheoliadau a ganlyn.
