Fel y dywedais yn gynharach, pan gyflwynwyd y ddeddfwriaeth hon gennym, credaf ein bod ar bwynt mewn amser pan oeddem yn credu mai dyna oedd y peth iawn i’w wneud. Rydym wedi gweld yr ymyriadau hynny’n bod yn gadarnhaol iawn. Credaf ei bod yn bryd adnewyddu’r polisi yn awr a chynnal adolygiad o’r hyn rydym yn ei wneud o ran ymyrraeth. Mae’r dystiolaeth ar ein strydoedd. Rydym yn gallu gweld pobl sy’n ddigartref a phobl yn cysgu ar y stryd, ac felly, mae’n amlwg fod rhywbeth o’i le rhwng y ddeddfwriaeth a’i gweithrediad. Rwy’n fwy na pharod i edrych ar hynny, ac i gyfarfod â Shelter yn ogystal, cyfarfûm â Crisis ddoe hefyd. Felly, rwyf wedi cyfarfod â llu o sefydliadau sy’n ymdrin â digartrefedd, gan fy mod o’r farn y dylai hon fod yn flaenoriaeth i’r Llywodraeth.
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.
