Seminar for Panel members
MEMBERS of Dyfed Powys Police and Crime Panel have attended a seminar to find out more about the work of the Commissioner.
Police and Crime Commissioner Dafydd Llywelyn held the training day to help the panel, most of which are new members, to be fully briefed on various issues.
They included an overview of the Police and Crime Plan; a presentation by Chief Constable Mark Collins on operational policing; a briefing on financial matters by Chief Finance Officer Jayne Woods; an introduction to commissioned services by Director of Commissioning Alison Perry; and information on scrutiny activity by Compliance Officer Claire Bryant.
Panel Chair Cllr Alun Lloyd Jones said: “It was an extremely useful day, particularly for the new members of the Panel.
“It helps us to do our job in scrutinising the Police Commissioner when we are fully informed.”
Panel members took advantage of the opportunity to ask questions throughout the seminar on the various topics.
Cllr Lloyd Jones added: “Panel members were very interested in the presentations and participated fully in the discussions, it was an interesting seminar which will certainly benefit us in our role.”
Seminar ar gyfer aelodau’r Panel
Mae Aelodau Panel Heddlu a Throseddu Dyfed Powys wedi bod mewn seminar i ganfod mwy am waith y Comisiynydd.
Cynhaliwyd y diwrnod hyfforddiant gan Dafydd Llywelyn, Comisiynydd yr Heddlu a Throseddu, i helpu’r panel, y mae’r rhan fwyaf ohonynt yn aelodau newydd, i gael ei friffio’n llawn ynghylch gwahanol faterion.
Roedd yn cynnwys golwg gyffredinol ar y Cynllun Heddlu a Throseddu; cyflwyniad gan y Prif Gwnstabl Mark Collins ar blismona gweithredol; briffiad ar faterion ariannol gan y Prif Swyddog Cyllid, Jayne Woods; cyflwyniad i wasanaethau a gomisiynwyd gan y Cyfarwyddwr Comisiynu, Alison Perry; a gwybodaeth am weithgarwch craffu gan y Swyddog Cydymffurfiaeth, Claire Bryant.
Meddai’r Cynghorydd Alun Lloyd Jones, Cadeirydd y Panel: “Roedd yn ddiwrnod hynod ddefnyddiol, yn arbennig ar gyfer aelodau newydd y Panel.
“Pan fo gennym ni’r holl wybodaeth, wrth reswm mae hynny’n ein helpu ni i wneud ein gwaith craffu o ran Comisiynydd yr Heddlu.”
Achubodd aelodau’r panel ar y cyfle i ofyn cwestiynau ar amrywiol bynciau drwy gydol y seminar.
Ychwanegodd y Cynghorydd Lloyd Jones: “Roedd gan aelodau’r panel ddiddordeb mawr yn y cyflwyniadau ac roedden nhw wedi cymryd rhan lawn yn y trafodaethau. Roedd yn seminar diddorol a fydd yn bendant o gymorth i ni o ran cyflawni ein rôl.”
