An important principle for our work is to aim to achieve a better democratic balance within each council area so that each vote cast in an election is, so far as reasonably practicable, of the same weight as all others in the council area. The achievement of this aim, along with other measures, would be conducive to effective and convenient local government. At the beginning of this review process we have found some considerable differences between the numbers of voters to councillors not only between council areas in Wales, but also within council areas themselves. The Commission is constrained by a number of things in the way we undertake our work: • The basic “building blocks” for electoral divisions are the community areas into which Wales is divided.

    Aberystwyth University Research, Development and Innovation Scheme Effective from 01/01/2021 • Scheme number SA.52555 replaced by SA.60803 • The purpose is for the disbursement of EU funds only. • Duration of the scheme extended to 31/12/2023. • Replace definition of “Undertaking in difficulty”; ‘undertaking in difficulty’ means an undertaking in respect of which at least one of the following circumstances occurs: (a) In the case of a limited liability company (other than an SME that has been in existence for less than three years or, for the purposes of eligibility for risk finance aid, an SME within 7 years from its first commercial sale that qualifies for risk finance investments following due diligence by the selected financial intermediary), where more than half of its subscribed share capital has disappeared as a result of accumulated losses. This is the case when deduction of accumulated losses from reserves (and all other elements generally considered as part of the own funds of the company) leads to a negative cumulative amount that exceeds half of the subscribed share capital. For the purposes of this provision, ‘limited liability company’ refers in particular to the types of company mentioned in Annex I of Directive 2013/34/EU ( 1 ) and ‘share capital’ includes, where relevant, any share premium. (b) In the case of a company where at least some members have unlimited liability for the debt of the company (other than an SME that has been in existence for less than three years or, for the purposes of eligibility for risk finance aid, an SME within 7 years from its first commercial sale that qualifies for risk finance investments following due diligence by the selected financial intermediary), where more than half of its capital as shown in the company accounts has disappeared as a result of accumulated losses.

It is a combination of local knowledge from the Pen-y-ffordd Community Group, supported by the Community Council, and the feedback of over 780 residents; along with local and national policies which the proposal fails to adhere to. Hawarden Road with the proposal land behind the hedgerows on the left “you and your community are vital in the plan preparation as you hold local knowledge” LDP Wales – Planning Your Community (Welsh Assembly Government Publication) In Planning Policy Wales Edition 8 - January 2016 in Chapter 4.3.1 there is reference to the Well- being of Future Generations (Wales) Act establishing a Sustainable Development Principle. This is the wording: “…a defined public body must act in a manner which seeks to ensure that the needs of the present are met without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. In order to achieve this principle we expect all those involved in the planning system to adhere to: putting people, and their quality of life now and in the future, at the centre of decision making.” Pen-y-ffordd Community Group Page 1 www.PenyfforddCommunity.org Objections to Planning Application 055590 This document sets out why adding this development to our village will harm the community and the quality of life of residents now as well as the reasons why it is unsustainable.
