    " (1A) Notification in writing of a decision under this section is to be taken as given to a local housing authority where notice of the decision is sent using electronic communications to such address as may for the time being be notified by that authority to the Secretary of State for that purpose.

Cyfathrebu dyfarniadau a chyfarwyddiadau yn electronig
     2. Yn adran 87 o Ddeddf 1989[6] (penderfyniadau a chyfarwyddiadau) ar ôl is-adran (3), mewnosodir yr is-adrannau canlynol  - 

    " (4) References in this section to sending to a local housing authority a copy of a determination under this Part include references to using electronic communications for sending a copy of a determination to such address as may for the time being be notified to the Secretary of State by that authority for that purpose.

Dehongli Rhan VI o Ddeddf 1989 a'i chymhwyso
     3. Yn adran 88(1) o Ddeddf 1989  - 

    (1) ar ddiwedd paragraff (c) dilëir "and";

    (2) ar ôl paragraff (d) mewnosodir  - 

     " ; and

(e) "electronic communication" means a communication transmitted (whether from one person to another, from one device to another or from a person to a device or vice versa)  - 


(i) by means of a telecommunications system (within the meaning of the Telecommunications Act 1984)[7] ; or

(ii) by other means but while in an electronic form;



(f) "address", in relation to electronic communications, includes any number or address used for the purposes of such communications.".

Mae adran 8 o Ddeddf Cyfathrebu Electronig 2000 ("Deddf 2000") yn rhoi p er i'r Gweinidog priodol (fel y'i diffinnir yn adrannau 9(1) a 10(1) o Ddeddf 2000) addasu deddfwriaeth er mwyn awdurdodi neu hwyluso defnyddio dulliau cyfathrebu electronig neu ddulliau storio electronig.

Mae adran 10 o Ddeddf 2000 yn nodi o dan ba amgylchiadau ac ym mha fodd y mae'r p er yn Adran 8 yn arferadwy mewn perthynas â Chymru gan Gynulliad Cenedlaethol Cymru.

Mae adrannau 80A, 87 ac 88 o Ddeddf Llywodraeth Leol a Thai 1989 ("Deddf 1989") yn cael eu diwygio gan y Gorchymyn hwn i'r graddau y maent yn ymwneud â Chymru. Mae swyddogaethau'r Ysgrifennydd Gwladol o dan Ddeddf 1989 (gyda rhai eithriadau) yn arferadwy yng Nghymru gan Gynulliad Cenedlaethol Cymru yn rhinwedd darpariaethau Gorchymyn Cynulliad Cenedlaethol Cymru (Trosglwyddo Swyddogaethau) 1999. Gan hynny, mae pob cyfeiriad at yr Ysgrifennydd Gwladol yn y diwygiadau i Ddeddf 1989 yn gyfeiriadau i bob pwrpas (yng Nghymru) at Gynulliad Cenedlaethol Cymru.

Mae'r diwygiadau'n cael eu gwneud drwy gymhwyso'r diwygiadau i Ddeddf 1989 sydd wedi'u gwneud gan Orchymyn Deddf Llywodraeth Leol a Thai 1989 (Cyfathrebu Electronig) (Lloegr) 2000 (OS 2000/3056) at Gymru. Nodir y diwygiadau hynny yn yr Atodlen i'r Gorchymyn hwn.

Effaith y Gorchymyn hwn yw diwygio adran 80A o Ddeddf 1989 er mwyn caniatáu i Gynulliad Cenedlaethol Cymru ddefnyddio dulliau cyfathrebu electronig:

 -  i hysbysu awdurdod tai lleol o'i benderfyniad terfynol ar faint o gymhorthdal Cyfrif Refeniw Tai sy'n daladwy i'r awdurdod am y flwyddyn, neu

 -  i gyhoeddi'r penderfyniad ar wefan a hysbysu'r awdurdod ei fod wedi gwneud hynny, ym mha le y gellir dod o hyd i'r penderfyniad a sut y gellir cael gafael arno (os yw wedi cytuno felly gyda'r awdurdod).

Effaith y Gorchymyn hwn hefyd yw diwygio adran 87 o Ddeddf Llywodraeth Leol a Thai 1989, i ganiatàu i'r Cynulliad:

 -  defnyddio dulliau cyfathrebu electronig i anfon copi at awdurdod tai lleol o unrhyw ddyfarniad a wneir o dan Ran VI o Ddeddf 1989 (dyfarniad ar faint o gymhorthdal Cyfrif Refeniw Tai sy'n daladwy o dan adran 80 o Ddeddf 1989, neu ddyfarniad ar fformwla y dylai credydau a debydau gael eu cyfrifo yn unol â hi o dan Eitem 8 o Ran I ac Eitem 8 o Ran II o Atodlen 4 i Ddeddf 1989).

Mae'r diwygiad hwn hefyd yn caniatàu i Gynulliad Cenedlaethol Cymru gyflawni ei rwymedigaeth i anfon copi o ddyfarniad at awdurdod drwy gyhoeddi'r dyfarniad ar wefan a hysbysu'r awdurdod y gellir dod o hyd iddo yno, a sut y gellir cael gafael arno yno (os yw wedi cytuno felly gyda'r awdurdod).

Caiff awdurdod nad yw mwyach yn fodlon derbyn dyfarniad neu benderfyniad drwy ddull electronig hysbysu ei fod yn tynnu ei hysbysiad ynghylch y cyfeiriad y gall gohebiaeth electronig gael ei hanfon ato yn ôl, a'i fod yn diddymu cytundeb y gellir ei hysbysu drwy edrych ar wefan. Daw'r tynnu'n ôl neu'r diddymu i rym ar ddyddiad a bennir gan yr awdurdod sy'n gorfod bod o leiaf fis o'r dyddiad y mae'r awdurdod yn rhoi'r hysbysiad ynghylch y tynnu'n ôl neu'r diddymu.

Yn olaf, effaith y Gorchymyn hwn yw diwygio adran 88 o Ddeddf 1989 drwy fewnosod diffiniad o ddulliau cyfathrebu electronig a diffiniad o gyfeiriad at ddibenion cyfathrebu electronig.
