Administrative History: From the later nineteenth century down to 1957 (1962 in the case of Aberystwyth Borough and R.D.C.) responsibility for water provision in Cardiganshire, as elsewhere, lay in the hands of borough and rural district councils or sanitary authorities. The South Cardiganshire Water Board was constituted by an Order of 12 March 1956 made by the Minister of Housing and Local Government, in exercise of his powers under section 9 of the Water Act 1945, and case into operation on 29 March of the same year. The day of transfer of the constituent authorities to the board was 1 April 1957. The Cardiganshire Water Board was constituted by an Order (Ho. 270) made on 9 January 1962 by the Minister, as above. The Order came into operation on 14 February 1962; the appointed day of transfer wa9 1 April 1962 but the actual hand-over took place on 1 October 1962. The water functions of seven constitutent authorities were transferred together with those of Aberystwyth Borough and R.D.C. In 1974 the Welsh Water Authority took over the Cardiganshire Water Board. Arrangement of Records: The malor problem with the pre-Vater Boards material i s that nore than one file reference exists. This doubtless reflects efforts to bring files from diverse sources into one system, following the creation of the South Cardiganshire or Cardiganshire Water Board. For authorities other than water boards the arrangement adopted is alphabetical, by authority, and chronological within these authorxties. With so much of the original provenance lost and the addition of later refenences an accurate reconstruction of the original filing system would have posed insoluble problems. As far as the South Cardiganshire and Cardiganshire Water Boards are concerned the two main divisions are those of the Clerk/Treasurer and Engineer's departments. An attempt has been made within these broad categories to retrieve large tracts of the filing system (which is often quite possible). The order on the whole, however, remains problematic. In every case where there is more than one file reference all are given in the apparent order of their allocation. The word "Contract1 has been standardised throughout to (C). The files themselves consist largely of correspondence and working papers, often with plans. A brief indication of subject matter i s given only when there is no title or that title is not sufficiently explanatory.

  • Benthic Habitat Mapping of Cardigan Bay, in Relation to the Distribution of the Bottlenose Dolphin
    Benthic Habitat Mapping of Cardigan Bay, in relation to the distribution of the Bottlenose Dolphin (Tursiops truncatus). A dissertation submitted in part candidature for the Degree of B.Sc., Institute of Biological Sciences, University of Wales, Aberystwyth. By Hannah Elizabeth Vallin © Sarah Perry May 2011 1 Acknowledgments I would like to give my thanks to several people who made contributions to this study being carried out. Many thanks to be given firstly to the people of Cardigan Bay Marine Wild life centre who made this project possible, for providing the resources and technological equipment needed to carry out the investigation and for their wealth of knowledge of Cardigan Bay and its local wildlife. With a big special thanks to Steve Hartley providing and allowing the survey to be carried out on board the Sulaire boat. Also, to Sarah Perry for her time and guidance throughout, in particular providing an insight to the OLEX system and GIS software. To Laura Mears and the many volunteers that contributed to participating in the sightings surveys during the summer, and for all their advice and support. I would like to thank my dissertation supervisor Dr. Helen Marshall for providing useful advice, support, and insightful comments to writing the report, as well as various staff members of Aberystwyth University who provided educational support. Finally many thanks to my family and friends who have supported me greatly for the duration. Thankyou. i Abstract The distribution and behaviour of many marine organisms such the bottlenose dolphin Tursiops truncates, are influenced by the benthic habitat features, environmental factors and affinities between species of their surrounding habitats.

  • Dyfed Final Recommendations News Release
    NEWS RELEASE Issued by the Telephone 02920 395031 Boundary Commission for Wales Caradog House Fax 02920 395250 1-6 St Andrews Place Cardiff CF10 3BE Date 25 August 2004 FINAL RECOMMENDATIONS FOR THE PARLIAMENTARY CONSTITUENCIES IN THE PRESERVED COUNTY OF DYFED The Commission propose to make no change to their provisional recommendations for five constituencies in the preserved county of Dyfed. 1. Provisional recommendations in respect of Dyfed were published on 5 January 2004. The Commission received eleven representations, five of which were in support of their provisional recommendations. Three of the representations objected to the inclusion of the whole of the Cynwyl Elfed electoral division within the Carmarthen West and South Pembrokeshire constituency, one objected to the name of the Carmarthen West and South Pembrokeshire constituency and one suggested the existing arrangements for the area be retained. 2. The Commission noted that, having received no representation of the kind mentioned in section 6 (2) of the Parliamentary Constituencies Act 1986, there was no statutory requirement to hold a local inquiry. The Commission further decided that in all the circumstances they would not exercise their discretion under section 6 (1) to hold an inquiry. Final recommendations 3. The main objection to the provisional recommendations was in respect of the inclusion of the Cynwyl Elfed electoral division in the Carmarthen West and South Pembrokeshire constituency. It was argued that the division should be included in Carmarthen East and Dinefwr on the grounds that the majority of the electorate in the division fell within that constituency and that inclusion in Carmarthen East and Dinefwr rather than Carmarthen West and South Pembrokeshire would reduce the disparity between the electorates of the two constituencies and would bring them closer to the electoral quota.

  • Ceredigion Welsh District Council Elections Results 1973-1991
    Ceredigion Welsh District Council Elections Results 1973-1991 Colin Rallings and Michael Thrasher The Elections Centre Plymouth University The information contained in this report has been obtained from a number of sources. Election results from the immediate post-reorganisation period were painstakingly collected by Alan Willis largely, although not exclusively, from local newspaper reports. From the mid- 1980s onwards the results have been obtained from each local authority by the Elections Centre. The data are stored in a database designed by Lawrence Ware and maintained by Brian Cheal and others at Plymouth University. Despite our best efforts some information remains elusive whilst we accept that some errors are likely to remain. Notice of any mistakes should be sent to [email protected]. The results sequence can be kept up to date by purchasing copies of the annual Local Elections Handbook, details of which can be obtained by contacting the email address above. Front cover: the graph shows the distribution of percentage vote shares over the period covered by the results. The lines reflect the colours traditionally used by the three main parties. The grey line is the share obtained by Independent candidates while the purple line groups together the vote shares for all other parties. Rear cover: the top graph shows the percentage share of council seats for the main parties as well as those won by Independents and other parties. The lines take account of any by- election changes (but not those resulting from elected councillors switching party allegiance) as well as the transfers of seats during the main round of local election.
