Cwestiwn
Mae'r cwestiwn a'r ateb yn Saesneg gan nad oes fersiwn Gymraeg ar gael.
What is the Welsh Government's approach to proposed developments involving steel lattice pylons that are already underway, such as Green GEN Cymru's proposed Towy Usk project, in light of the Welsh Government's commitment to prohibit the use of steel lattice pylons?

Atebwyd gan Cabinet Minister for Enterprise, Connectivity and Energy (Adam Price)
The Welsh Government does not comment on live development proposals as this could prejudice Welsh Ministers decision-making roles.
Proposed developments are considered through the relevant statutory consenting processes and against the policy framework in place at the time a decision is taken. As detailed in Planning Policy Wales, the current policy is for the undergrounding of new electricity lines, where possible.
We will set out the new policy approach in line with our manifesto shortly.
