Nodyn Esboniadol

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

Mae'r Rheoliadau hyn yn diwygio Rheoliadau Grantiau Adnewyddu Tai 1996 sy'n nodi'r prawf moddion ar gyfer penderfynu swm y grant adnewyddu a'r grant cyfleusterau i'r anabl y gall awdurdodau tai lleol ei dalu i geiswyr sy'n berchen-feddianwyr neu'n denantiaid o dan Bennod I o Ddeddf Grantiau Tai, Adeiladu ac Adfywio 1996.

Mae'r diwygiadau yn dilyn newidiadau i Reoliadau Budd-dâl Tai (Cyffredinol) 1987 (O.S. 1987/1971) y seilir y prawf moddion arnynt.

Ceir ychwanegiad at y rhestr o symiau y gellir eu diystyru fel cyfalaf. Mae'n ymwneud â thaliadau arbennig i ddioddefwyr amrywiolyn clefyd Creutzfeldt-Jakob a'u teuluoedd agos.
