They see it as their future. The station would provide an alternative solution to car and pollution. Also help to get people active by walking and cycling. This would be in line with one of Welsh Government’s flagship policy for Active Travel. The staff and pupils of the schools eco councils believe the walkway station concept should be a blueprint for a lot of new stations in the future. Walkway, parkway stations integrated with other modes of public transport would form ‘the ideal holistic’ model for public transport. The MAGOR group holds regular meetings with both schools to keep them updated on the progress of the project. MAGOR has run a number of competitions over the years. Examples being- name the locomotive and driver on the MAGOR logo. In conjunction with GWR ran a competition for pupils to write a short story or draw a picture (for younger pupils) on the GWR advertising campaign theme ‘The Famous Five’ by Enid Blyton. The winner of the story writing was taken by GWR to a book-writers event to receive the prize. The winning story was then published. The winners of the pictures competition were presented with the prizes at a school presentation event by Peter Fox OBE, Leader of Monmouthshire County Council and GWR officials. Further events had been planned for this year, but due to the Covid 19 crisis have had to be postponed. An event planned for May of this year, was a walk to school day. In 2019 we have engaged with Rogiet Primary School. The school, although two and a half miles from Magor with Undy, would receive a massive benefit from the opening of Magor & Undy Walkway Station. The school is situated on a dead- end street that leads to Severn Tunnel Junction Station. The school is passed each year by 120,000 vehicles going up and down to and from Severn Tunnel Junction Station. This equates to 240,000 car movements past the school annually. From the numerous surveys carried out by our sister group STAG (Severn Tunnel Action Group). The annual number of Severn Tunnel Junction passengers originating from Magor with Undy is 40,000 (30%). The staff and pupils of Rogiet see the opportunity and benefit opening Magor & Undy Walkway Station would bring to their community and school. The benefit would be the potential to reduce up to 80,000 vehicles movements per annum, past the front of their school, along Station Road, Rogiet. The school children understand that the opening of Magor & Undy Walkway Station has the potential to significantly reduce car pollution around their school. The views of Rogiet Primary School are shared and endorsed by Rogiet Community Council.

    Our ref: NB Ask for: Communications 01656 641150 Date: 7 August 2019 communications @ombudsman-wales.org.uk Councillor Peter Fox OBE Council Leader Monmouthshire County Council By Email Only [email protected] Dear Councillor Peter Fox OBE Annual Letter 2018/19 I am pleased to provide you with the Annual letter (2018/19) for Monmouthshire County Borough Council. This year I am publishing my Annual Letters as part of my Annual Report and Accounts. I hope the Council finds this helpful and I trust this will enable it to review its own complaint handling performance in the context of other public bodies performing similar functions across Wales. Whilst overall the number of complaints received relating to local authorities across Wales increased from 794 to 912, I am pleased that local authorities continue to work with my office to resolve many of these complaints at an early stage. This provides complainants with appropriate and timely remedies avoiding the need for my office to fully investigate complaints. A summary of the complaints of maladministration/service failure received relating to the Council is attached. Also attached is a summary of the Code of Conduct complaints relating to members of the Council and the Town & Community Councils in your area. You will note that we received a relatively high number of complaints this year relating to members of Community and Town Councils in the Council’s area. However, please be assured that I do not consider that this is indicative of a fall in Page 1 of 8 standards of conduct generally or indeed in the Council itself.

    Monmouth 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.
