"croes" in context

Rŷm ni’n cefnogi egwyddor croes-gymhorthdal—neu cross-subsidy —i gynnal gwasanaethau sy’n gymdeithasol angenrheidiol, ond mae angen i’r Ysgrifennydd Cabinet egluro’r berthynas a’r rhyngweithiad rhwng cyllid cenedlaethol a chyllid lleol er mwyn sicrhau bod yna degwch a thryloywder.

We support the principle of cross-subsidy to sustain socially necessary services, but the Cabinet Secretary needs to clarify the interaction and relationship between national and local funding to ensure fairness and transparency.
