Gwaith sydd eisoes wedi ei ddechrau cyn i reoliadau penodol gymryd effaith

35.   Nid yw diwygiad sydd wedi ei wneud gan reoliad perthnasol yn gymwys mewn unrhyw achos pan fo'r gwaith adeiladu wedi ei ddechrau yn unol ag unrhyw ddarpariaeth hysbysu berthnasol sy'n gymwys mewn perthynas â'r gwaith ar yr adeg pan fo'r diwygiad yn cymryd effaith.

Rhoi hysbysiad neu adneuo planiau cyn i'r rheoliadau hynny gymryd effaith

36.   Nid yw diwygiad sydd wedi ei wneud gan reoliad perthnasol yn gymwys mewn unrhyw achos—

Nodyn Esboniadol

(Nid yw'r nodyn hwn yn rhan o'r Rheoliadau)

Mae'r Rheoliadau hyn yn diwygio Rheoliadau Adeiladu 2010 (“y Rheoliadau Adeiladu”) a Rheoliadau Adeiladu (Arolygwyr Cymeradwy etc.) 2010 (“y Rheoliadau Arolygwyr Cymeradwy”).

Mae'r diwygiadau i'r Rheoliadau Adeiladu wedi eu nodi yn Rhan 1.

Mae rheoliad 8 yn cynnwys darpariaethau newydd sy'n ymwneud â'r awdurdod lleol yn dyroddi tystysgrifau cwblhau ac mae rheoliad 9 yn ychwanegu rheoliad newydd, sef rheoliad 17A, sy'n disodli ac yn bennaf yn ailddeddfu, â mân ddiwygiadau, hanfod rheoliad 17 o ran adeiladau sydd wedi eu meddiannu cyn i'r gwaith gael ei gwblhau. Mae'r diwygiadau i reoliad 14 yn rheoliad 5, i reoliad 15 yn rheoliad 6, i reoliad 19 yn rheoliad 10, i reoliad 47 yn rheoliad 22 ac i reoliad 48 yn rheoliad 23 yn ganlyniadol i'r diwygiad hwn.

Mae rheoliadau 8(b) a 11(b) yn ychwanegu gofyniad ychwanegol at reoliad 17 a rheoliad 20 yn y drefn honno, gan ei gwneud yn ofynnol i dystysgrifau penodedig gynnwys geiriad ynghylch gwerth tystiolaethol y tystysgrifau hynny.

Mae rheoliad 11 yn diwygio rheoliad 20 i ddarparu bod tystysgrif a ddyroddir yn unol â rheoliad 20 o'r Rheoliadau Adeiladu, o dan gynllun hunanardystio, yn nodi bod rhwymedigaethau talu yn y dyfodol yn gymwys i'r eiddo o dan sylw o dan gynllun bargen werdd i ad-dalu costau gwaith i wella effeithlonrwydd ynni ar yr eiddo. Mae'r diwygiad hefyd yn ei gwneud yn ofynnol i'r awdurdod lleol storio'r hysbysiadau a'r tystysgrifau perthnasol ar ffurf adferadwy.

Mae rheoliadau 4, 12 i 20, 22 a 23 yn trosi Erthyglau 2, 6, 7, 9 ac 11 o Gyfarwyddeb Senedd Ewrop a'r Cyngor 2010/31/EU sy'n ddyddiedig 19 Mai 2010 ar berfformiad ynni adeiladau (ail-lunio) (“y Gyfarwyddeb ail-lunio”). Mae rheoliad 13 yn diwygio rheoliad 23 o'r Rheoliadau Adeiladu sy'n ymwneud ag adnewyddu neu ailosod elfennau thermol i weithredu gofynion y gyfarwyddeb ail-lunio yn llawn. Mae rheoliad 15 yn gweithredu'n rhannol y gofynion yn y Gyfarwyddeb ail-lunio ar gyfer systemau amgen tra effeithlon ac adeiladau sydd bron yn ddi-garbon mewn cysylltiad ag adeiladau newydd. Mae rheoliadau 16 i 19 yn nodi gofynion ar gyfer tystysgrifau perfformiad ynni mewn perthynas ag adeiladu adeilad; maent yn trosi'r Gyfarwyddeb ail-lunio ac maent hefyd yn cynnwys darpariaethau a nodir ynghynt yn Rheoliadau Perfformiad Ynni Adeiladau (Tystysgrifau ac Arolygiadau) (Cymru a Lloegr) 2007 (O.S. 2007/991).

Mae rheoliad 21 yn diwygio rheoliad 43 o'r Rheoliadau Adeiladu i ychwanegu corff pellach a gaiff gofrestru person i ddyroddi tystysgrif yn nodi cydymffurfedd â gofynion ynghylch profion pwysedd.

Mae rholiad 24(2) yn diwygio'r rhestr o'r cyrff sydd wedi eu hawdurdodi o dan y cynllun hunanardystio y darperir ar ei gyfer gan reoliadau 12 ac 20 o Atodlen 3 i'r Rheoliadau Adeiladu.

Mae Rhan 2 yn cynnwys diwygiadau i'r Rheoliadau Arolygwyr Cymeradwy. Mae rheoliadau 30 ac 32 yn diwygio rheoliadau 8 ac 20 o'r Rheoliadau Arolygwyr Cymeradwy i sicrhau bod y newidiadau sy'n ofynnol o dan y Gyfarwyddeb ail-lunio hefyd yn gymwys pan fydd arolygydd cymeradwy yn ymgymryd â swyddogaeth reoli adeiladu.

Mae rheoliad 31 yn ychwanegu darpariaeth at reoliad 16 gan ei gwneud yn glir bod tystysgrif derfynol a roddir gan arolygydd cymeradwy yn dystiolaeth o'r materion a nodir ynddi, ond nid yw'n dystiolaeth ddigamsyniol o'r materion hynny.

Mae rheoliad 33 yn gwneud diwygiadau canlyniadol i'r ffurflenni hysbysiad perthnasol a bennir yn Atodlen 1 ac yn ychwanegu, pan fo'n briodol, y datganiad bod yr hysbysiad neu'r dystysgrif yn dystiolaeth o gydymffurfedd â'r gofynion a bennir ynddo ond nid yw'n dystiolaeth ddigamsyniol o'r gydymffurfedd honno.

Mae Rhan 3 yn nodi'r darpariaethau trosiannol.

Mae'r Atodlen i'r Rheoliadau hyn yn nodi'r tabl cychwyn.
