Diolch am eich ateb, Weinidog, ac nid wyf am siarad am yr estyniad 50 mya, sy'n achosi anhrefn, ond rwyf am siarad am Tata Steel a'r materion sy'n ymwneud â hynny. Mae pob un ohonom yn deall bod diwydiant trwm yn arwain at ryw fath o lygredd, ond mae llawer iawn o etholwyr wedi mynegi pryderon aruthrol ynglŷn â'r lefelau llwch rydym wedi'u cael ym Mhort Talbot dros y misoedd diwethaf. Rwy'n sylweddoli bod y tywydd cynnes yn ffactor sydd wedi cyfrannu, rydym yn deall hynny, ond mae hyn wedi mynd y tu hwnt i hynny, cyn i hynny ddigwydd. A beth y mae'n ei wneud? Oherwydd mae gan Cyfoeth Naturiol Cymru gyfrifoldeb am fonitro a gweithredu i sicrhau bod ansawdd yr aer a ddaw o'r gwaith yn gwella. A allwch roi sicrwydd i mi eu bod yn gwneud y gwaith hwnnw gan fod trigolion yn mynd allan, nid bob dydd, ond bob awr yn y bôn i lanhau eu byrddau a'u ceir a siliau ffenestri oherwydd y llwch o'r gwaith?
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.
