(3)Mae’n ddyletswydd ar lys sy’n gwrando cais o dan yr adran hon i ddyfarnu a yw unrhyw feini prawf perthnasol ar gyfer cadw plentyn mewn llety diogel wedi eu bodloni yn achos y plentyn.

(4)Os bydd llys yn dyfarnu bod unrhyw feini prawf o’r fath wedi eu bodloni, rhaid iddo wneud gorchymyn yn awdurdodi bod y plentyn i’w gadw mewn llety diogel ac yn pennu’r cyfnod hwyaf ar gyfer cadw’r plentyn felly.

(c)bod darpariaethau eraill a bennir yn y rheoliadau i gael effaith at ddibenion dyfarnu a ganiateir i blentyn o ddisgrifiad a bennir yn y rheoliadau gael ei leoli neu ei gadw mewn llety diogel yng Nghymru.

(8)Nid yw rhoi awdurdodiad o dan yr adran hon yn rhagfarnu unrhyw bŵer sydd gan unrhyw lys yn Lloegr a Chymru i roi cyfarwyddiadau ynglŷn â’r plentyn y mae’r awdurdodiad yn ymwneud ag ef.

(9)Nid yw rhoi awdurdodiad o dan yr adran hon yn rhagfarnu effaith unrhyw gyfarwyddyd a roddir gan lys yn yr Alban ynglŷn â phlentyn y mae’r awdurdodiad yn ymwneud ag ef, i’r graddau y mae’r cyfarwyddyd yn cael effaith yng nghyfraith Lloegr a Chymru.
