Gwnaf, rwy’n fwy na pharod i wneud hynny. Ac a gaf fi awgrymu fy mod yn ymweld â’r darn penodol hwnnw o’r A470 gyda’r Aelod? Yn ddiweddar, derbyniais sylwadau gan gyd-Aelod yr Aelod, Darren Millar, ynglŷn â ffordd debyg yn ei etholaeth ef. Bûm ar ymweliad safle yno, ac o ganlyniad, rydym bellach yn ystyried newid yr arwyddion, sy’n aml yn ddryslyd, ar y ffordd. Credaf ei bod yn hollol hanfodol ein bod yn dynodi’n glir i fodurwyr beth sy’n gyflymder diogel, yn hytrach na therfyn cyflymder yn unig. Lle y bo angen gostwng y terfyn cyflymder, byddwn yn gwneud hynny ar sail tystiolaeth, ond yn aml, hefyd, yn unol â phryderon y cymunedau lleol. Ond lle y bo angen rhagor o waith ar ffordd er mwyn sicrhau ei bod yn fwy diogel, rwy’n fwy na pharod i ystyried buddsoddi yn y seilwaith dan sylw.
The cabinet is the group of twenty or so (and no more than 22) senior government ministers who are responsible for running the departments of state and deciding government policy.
It is chaired by the prime minister.
The cabinet is bound by collective responsibility, which means that all its members must abide by and defend the decisions it takes, despite any private doubts that they might have.
Cabinet ministers are appointed by the prime minister and chosen from MPs or peers of the governing party.
However, during periods of national emergency, or when no single party gains a large enough majority to govern alone, coalition governments have been formed with cabinets containing members from more than one political party.
War cabinets have sometimes been formed with a much smaller membership than the full cabinet.
From time to time the prime minister will reorganise the cabinet in order to bring in new members, or to move existing members around. This reorganisation is known as a cabinet re-shuffle.
The cabinet normally meets once a week in the cabinet room at Downing Street.
