Mae'r cwestiwn a'r ateb yn Saesneg gan nad oes fersiwn Gymraeg ar gael.
What is the Welsh Government's definition of substantially unfurnished, in regard to long-term empty properties?
Ateb
Atebwyd gan Minister for Finance and Local Government
Substantially unfurnished is not defined in council tax legislation but is used for the purposes of the empty homes discount regime and the long-term empty property premium. It is determined by local authority officers’ assessment of the property and in practice a property will be regarded by local authorities as ‘substantially unfurnished’ if there are insufficient furnishings to enable someone to live in it. Any further interpretation of the definition is a matter for local authorities.
