    Parliamentary Voting and Constituencies Bill October 2010 This paper provides a background briefing on the Parliamentary Voting and Constituencies Bill, which was presented to the UK Parliament by the Rt. Hon Nick Clegg MP, the Deputy Prime Minister, on 22 July 2010. The Bill includes two key provisions which both directly apply to Wales. It aims to provide for a referendum on a choice between First Past the Post (FPTP) and the Alternative Vote (AV) as the system for electing the House of Commons, and change the electoral system for the Commons to the Alternative Vote if the result of the referendum supports this. The Bill also aims to provide for a reduction in the number of seats in the House of Commons from 650 to 600 and to introduce more equally sized constituencies.

These services deliver high quality care and support and are able to demonstrate that they make a strong contribution to improving children’s well-being Good These are services with strengths and no important areas requiring significant improvement. They consistently exceed basic requirements, delivering positive outcomes for children and actively promote their well-being. Adequate These are services where strengths outweigh areas for improvement. They are safe and meet basic requirements but improvements are required to promote well-being and improve outcomes for children. Poor These are services where important areas for improvement outweigh strengths and there are significant examples of non-compliance that impact negatively on children’s well-being.

  • The Benefice of Tredegar, Rhymney & Abertysswg
    Benefice Profile for Tredegar, Rhymney & Abertysswg The Church in Wales Yr Eglwys yng Nghymru The Diocese of Monmouth The Benefice of Tredegar, Rhymney & Abertysswg Benefice Profile December 2019 1 Benefice Profile for Tredegar, Rhymney & Abertysswg From the Archdeacon of the Gwent Valleys The Venerable Sue Pinnington Thank you for taking the time to look at this profile for the post of Team Rector (Ministry Area Leader designate) of Tredegar, Rhymney and Abertysswg. This new benefice (Ministry Area) offers an exciting opportunity to develop collaborative ministry and mission. The parishes are growing closer together, realising the benefits of sharing resources, skills and the desire to grow spiritually and numerically. They would like to extend their existing mission and should the Diocesan Bid to the Church in Wales Evangelism Fund be successful, more financial support for mission will be heading to the Valleys. The Benefice has an excellent NSM Associate Minister in Elizabeth Jones and lay ministers, who are very much looking forward to working in the newly created team. The Diocese had committed to funding a 0.5 fte post of Team Vicar to serve the whole benefice, but to live in the parsonage at Rhymney. We expect the new Team Rector (TR) to take a full part in this appointment and we hope to advertise swiftly following the TR’s licensing. However, this post is not without its challenges. These are the same challenges faced by the whole of the Archdeaconry, which covers the eastern post-industrial valleys of South Wales. All our communities face issues relating to poverty and deprivation, but we work hard together to address and tackle these issues.

  • 19 Williams 1502
    GLANMOR WILLIAMS Glanmor Williams 1920–2005 IT IS A WELL-KNOWN FACT that adult males born in Wales are the shortest in Britain, and on a good day Glanmor Williams measured just over five feet in his stockinged feet. But physical stature has never mattered to the natives of Dowlais, and this Lilliputian man, by dint of intellectual bril- liance, far-sighted vision and exceptional personal charm, achieved tow- ering eminence in the field of Welsh historical studies. At most gatherings he cut a compelling figure, and he was particularly adept at turning his smallness to advantage. Having famously written in the preface to his first big book that the work had ‘like Topsy, “just growed”’, it amused him thereafter to reproach nature for denying him the same opportunity.1 When he was chairman of the Broadcasting Council for Wales in the late 1960s, he impishly confessed never to have been able to see eye to eye with the impossibly tall Controller of the BBC in Wales, Alun Oldfield-Davies. On another occasion there was much mirth in the Williams household when a reporter described him in the Evening News as a ‘pint-sized but very eloquent professor of history’.2 Few Welsh scholars in the modern era have served their profession, university and country as admirably as this diminutive giant and the flourishing condition of Welsh historical studies during the last half century is in considerable measure attributa- ble to his influence. Yet, in spite of his unrivalled standing as a Welsh his- torian and the weight of honours he accumulated over the years, he remained unspoiled by his academic successes and public achievements, 1 Glanmor Williams, The Welsh Church from Conquest to Reformation (Cardiff, 1962), p.
