Gwnaed 28 Mawrth 2012
Gosodwyd gerbron Cynulliad Cenedlaethol Cymru 29 Mawrth 2012
Yn dod i rym 1 Ebrill 2012

Mae Gweinidogion Cymru, drwy arfer y pwerau a roddwyd i'r Ysgrifennydd Gwladol gan adran 26(1) o Ddeddf Gwasanaethau Tân 1947 ac a freiniwyd bellach ynddynt hwy yn gwneud y Gorchymyn canlynol:
1947 p.41, a ddiddymwyd gan adran 52 o Ddeddf y Gwasanaethau Tân ac Achub 2004 (p.21) ac Atodlen 2 iddi. Mae is-adrannau (1) i (5) o adran 26 yn parhau i gael effaith mewn perthynas â Chymru, at ddibenion y cynllun a sefydlwyd o dan yr adran honno fel Cynllun Pensiwn y Dynion Tân (“Firemen’s Pension Scheme”) ac a nodir yng Ngorchymyn Cynllun Pensiwn y Dynion Tân 1992 (O.S. 1992/129), gan erthygl 3 o O.S. 2004/2918 (Cy.257). Drwy erthygl 4 o'r offeryn hwnnw newidiwyd enw'r Cynllun i Gynllun Pensiwn y Dynion Tân (Cymru) (“Firefighters' Pension (Wales) Scheme”). Diwygiwyd adran 26 o Ddeddf 1947 gan amryfal Ddeddfau ond nid yw'r diwygiadau hynny yn berthnasol i'r Gorchymyn hwn.
Mae swyddogaethau'r Ysgrifennydd Gwladol o dan adran 26 o Ddeddf Gwasanaethau Tân 1947 bellach wedi eu breinio yng Ngweinidogion Cymru i'r graddau y maent yn arferadwy mewn perthynas â Chymru. Yr oeddent wedi eu breinio'n flaenorol yng Nghynulliad Cenedlaethol Cymru gan Orchymyn Cynulliad Cenedlaethol Cymru (Trosglwyddo Swyddogaethau) 1999 (O.S. 1999/672); gweler y cofnod ar gyfer Deddf Gwasanaethau Tân 1947 yn Atodlen 1 i'r Gorchymyn hwnnw. Yn rhinwedd paragraff 30 o Atodlen 11 i Ddeddf Llywodraeth Cymru 2006 (p.32) fe'u trosglwyddwyd i Weinidogion Cymru.

Mae'r Gorchymyn hwn yn diwygio Cynllun Pensiwn y Dynion Tân (Cymru) (sydd wedi ei nodi yn Atodlen 2 i Orchymyn Cynllun Pensiwn y Dynion Tân 1992 (O.S. 1992/129)) (“Cynllun 1992”) fel y mae'n cael effaith yng Nghymru, gydag effaith o 1 Ebrill 2012.
Mae'r diwygiad yn darparu ar gyfer cyfraddau gwahanol o gyfraniadau pensiwn sy'n daladwy gan aelodau Cynllun 1992 sy'n cynyddu yn ôl swm y cyflog pensiynadwy y mae'r aelod yn ei dderbyn. Pennir cyfraddau'r cyfraniadau ym mharagraff 3 o'r Tabl yn Rhan A1 o Atodlen 8 i'r Cynllun (fel y'i mewnosodir gan y Gorchymyn hwn).
