We demand that the Welsh Senedd has full control of natural resources in Wales
The Issue
Work has already begun to transfer water from Wales to drought-hit areas of England, according to the Chair of the National Infrastructure Commission. Water is a valuable commodity and this is another example of London syphoning away our most valuable resource without any consultation or benefit to our communities. Wales is rich in natural resources and we cannot continue to allow our future and our wealth to be taken from us. All natural resources must benefit us the people who live in Wales.
By one calculation Wales’ present export of water to England, from the Elan Valley to Birmingham and from Lake Vyrnwy and Tryweryn to Liverpool, could be worth as much as £4.5 billion a year.

Wales is a net exporter of electricity, having consumed approximately 14.7 TWh(1) of electricity in 2019, while generating approximately 27.9 TWh.

The valuation of the Crown Estate’s marine portfolio in Wales has increased significantly from £49.2 million in 2020 to £549.1 million in 2021.

Rydym yn mynnu bod gan Senedd Cymru reolaeth lawn dros adnoddau naturiol Cymru
Yn ôl Cadeirydd y Comisiwn Seilwaith Cenedlaethol mae gwaith eisoes wedi dechrau i drosglwyddo dŵr o Gymru i ardaloedd yn Lloegr sydd wedi’u taro gan sychder. Mae dŵr yn nwydd gwerthfawr a dyma enghraifft arall o Lundain yn seiffonu ein hadnodd mwyaf gwerthfawr heb unrhyw ymgynghori na budd i'n cymunedau. Mae Cymru’n gyfoethog mewn adnoddau naturiol ac ni allwn barhau i ganiatáu i’n dyfodol a’n cyfoeth gael eu cymryd oddi arnom. Rhaid i bob adnodd naturiol fod o fudd i ni’r bobl sy’n byw yng Nghymru.
Yn ôl un cyfrifiad gallai allforio dŵr presennol Cymru i Loegr, o Gwm Elan i Birmingham ac o Lyn Efyrnwy a Thryweryn i Lerpwl, fod werth cymaint â £4.5 biliwn y flwyddyn.

Mae Cymru yn allforiwr net o drydan, ar ôl defnyddio tua 14.7 TWh(1) o drydan yn 2019, tra’n cynhyrchu tua 27.9 TWh.

Mae prisiad portffolio morol Ystâd y Goron yng Nghymru wedi cynyddu’n sylweddol o £49.2 miliwn yn 2020 i £549.1 miliwn yn 2021.
