Sefydlwyd Cynulliad Cenedlaethol Cymru yn 1998 fel corfforaeth. Dim ond pwerau i greu deddfwriaeth eilradd, a hynny gyda chaniatâd Senedd y DU, oedd ganddo ar y cychwyn. Yn 2007 daeth Deddf Llywodraeth Cymru 2006 i rym a rhoddwyd pwer i'r Cynulliad i basio deddfau, a alwyd yn Fesurau'r Cynulliad, i Gymru mewn meysydd penodol gyda chydsyniad llywodraeth y DU. Yn dilyn pleidlais 'ie' yn refferendwm 2011 rhoddwyd pwerau deddfu ychwanegol i'r Cynulliad ac mae bellach yn gallu pasio deddfau, a;wyd yn 'Ddeddfau' ar yr holl bynciau yn yr ugain maes datganoledig heb ofyn am ganiatâd Senedd y DU. yn 2020 newidwyd enw'r Cynulliad i Senedd Cymru = Established in 1998 as a corporate body, the National Assembly for Wales initially only had powers to initiate secondary legislation when authorised by the UK Parliament. In 2007 the Government of Wales Act 2006 came into force and powers were give to the Assembly to make laws, called Assembly Measures, for Wales in defined areas with the permission of the UK Parliament. Following a 'yes' vote in the 2011 referendum further law making powers were given to the Assembly and it is now able to pass laws, known as Acts of the Assembly on all subjects in the twenty devolved areas without needing the agreement of the UK Parliament. In 2020 the National Assembly for Wales was renamed Senedd Cymru/Welsh Parliament.
