This section has no associated Explanatory Notes

(1)Rhaid i awdurdod lleol sy’n gofalu am unrhyw blentyn—

(a)diogelu a hyrwyddo llesiant y plentyn, a

(b)defnyddio gwasanaethau sydd ar gael i blant, y mae eu rhieni eu hunain yn gofalu amdanynt, mewn modd sy’n ymddangos yn rhesymol i’r awdurdod yn achos y plentyn.

(2)Mae dyletswydd awdurdod lleol o dan is-adran (1)(a) i ddiogelu a hyrwyddo llesiant plentyn sy’n derbyn gofal ganddynt yn cynnwys, er enghraifft—

(a)dyletswydd i hyrwyddo cyrhaeddiad addysgol y plentyn;

(b)dyletswydd—

(i)i asesu, o bryd i’w gilydd, a oes gan y plentyn anghenion am ofal a chymorth sy’n bodloni’r meini prawf cymhwystra a nodwyd o dan adran 32, a

(ii)os oes ar y plentyn anghenion sy’n bodloni’r meini prawf cymhwystra, i ddiwallu, o leiaf, yr anghenion hynny.

(3)Cyn gwneud unrhyw benderfyniad mewn cysylltiad â phlentyn y mae’n gofalu amdano, neu’n bwriadu gofalu amdano, rhaid i awdurdod lleol (yn ogystal â’r materion a nodir yn adrannau 6(2) a (4) a 7(2) (dyletswyddau hollgyffredinol eraill)), roi sylw i—

(a)barn, dymuniadau a theimladau unrhyw berson y mae ei farn, ei ddymuniadau a’i deimladau yn berthnasol ym marn yr awdurdod;

(b)argyhoeddiad crefyddol, tarddiad hiliol, a chefndir diwylliannol ac ieithyddol y plentyn.

(4)Os yr ymddengys i awdurdod lleol ei bod yn angenrheidiol iddo, er mwyn amddiffyn aelodau o’r cyhoedd rhag niwed difrifol, arfer ei bwerau mewn cysylltiad â phlentyn y mae’n gofalu amdano mewn modd nad yw efallai yn gyson â’i ddyletswyddau o dan yr adran hon neu adran 6, caiff wneud hynny.
