It is the largest town and the administrative centre of Blaenau Gwent county borough. Originally a rather insignificant spot in rural Monmouthshire with only about 120 inhabitants but at the end of the 18th century, Ebbw Vale—and the whole valley—was transformed by the Industrial Revolution. The Ebbw Vale Iron Works, later to become the Ebbw Vale Steelworks, opened in 1778, followed by the opening of a number of coal mines around 1790. At its height (1930s — 40s) the steel works in Ebbw Vale was the largest in Europe, although attracting very little attention from German bombers during World War II. By the 1960s around 14,500 people were employed in the works in and around Ebbw Vale, but the end of the century witnessed a massive collapse to the industry. A strike in 1980 was followed by closures and redundancies which resulted in the dismantling of many of the old plants. In 2002 only 450 were employed in the old industries, and by July of that year the final works closed. > Overview | Economy | Workforce Skills | Summary > Overview of Ebbw Vale Ebbw Vale Today The largest regeneration project in Wales is currently underway on the former Steelworks However, significant recent investment in Blaenau Gwent includes: site – including the opening of a new Learning Zone, Leisure Centre, housing, industry and The • Over £100 million for the Learning Works Scheme at The Gwent Archives.

  • Setting the Challenge for the Cardiff Capital Region City Deal Introduction 1. What Kind
    A Better Deal for Future Generations - setting the challenge for the Cardiff Capital Region City Deal Future Generations Commissioner- Sophie Howe Introduction City Deals are a vital opportunity for our public service leaders to demonstrate how they are planning for the future - tackling the problems of today but with the longer-term impact at the forefront of their planning. Gone are the days when we can look at a single issue in isolation. People’s lives are not lived in silos. The ability to work is not just dependent on skills but other factors such as having a transport system that is affordable and easily accessible. It depends on good health and wellbeing, for which we need access to green spaces and clean air. As decisions about the Cardiff Capital Region City Deal are being made since the Well-being of Future Generations Act came into force they are an important milestone in the life of the Act. They offer an opportunity for us to see how local authorities, Welsh Government, and other partners are working to fulfil their obligations. That is, how they intend to maximise their contribution to the well-being goals using the five ways of working set out in the Act. As a 20-year programme, the City Deal also offers an unusual and valuable opportunity for the authorities involved to work on a longer time frame. Short-term funding cycles are often blamed by public bodies for an inability to make long-term plans with positive long-term impacts, so we expect that they will welcome the opportunity that the City Deal programme offers to do just this.

We have considered the views and comments that were expressed and where appropriate have reflected them in this Annual Report. Since last year there has been a significant change to the proposals of the Welsh Government for the future of local government in Wales and in due course we will be examining the potential implications for remuneration. However this Report deals with the current structure of local government that falls within our remit. The Panel has decide to make a very modest increase in the basic salary for elected members of principal councils, the first increase for 3 years, with consequential increases for members of National Park and Fire and Rescue Authorities. Other changes to the remuneration framework are set out in the introduction to the Report. For most authorities the Report will take effect after the elections on the 4th May.
