UK Parliament. The scientific evidence of the risks and harms of unconventional gas development mounts every year and we believe that fracked gas has no place in Wales' low carbon future. The 2015 Paris climate agreement, the Well-being of Future Generations (Wales) Act of 2015 and the Environment (Wales) Act of 2016 all make it clear that a swift transition to renewable energy is needed.

The 2015 Paris climate agreement, the Well-being of Future Generations (Wales) Act of 2015 and the Environment (Wales) Act of 2016 make our moral and legal obligations clear – in the face of potentially catastrophic climate change, we must act now to protect future generations. 1 Inadmissible petitions to the National Assembly for Wales, May 2016 – April 2020 Inadmissible petitions are published in the language in which they were submitted. This transition is totally feasible, both technically and financially, and such a bold programme could be transformative for Wales. It would attract green investment, create tens of thousands of jobs and give Wales ownership of its own energy generation and distribution systems. This would be true energy security and it would give Wales political and economic freedom like never before in its history. May 2016 Keep our children Keep our children safe!!

  • Wales-Ireland Travelogue 2009
    WALES AND IRELAND TRIP MAY 12 TO JUNE 4, 2009 What a coincidence! Meaningless, to be sure - but a coincidence, nonetheless. Our trip to the British Isles in 2009 began and ended one day earlier than our trip to Scotland, May 14 to June 5, 2001. (One can only hope that September of this year doesn't hold the same sort of unpleasant surprise that was visited upon us eight years ago.) OK, so I made a "small" error - we are departing two days earlier, not one. And, OK, so it wasn't much of a coincidence, was it? I mean, a real coincidence - one of excruciating consequence - occurred at the Polo Grounds in NYC on October 3, 1951 when Ralph Branca of the Blessed Brooklyn Dodgers was called in to pitch in the 9th inning and, by coincidence, Bobby Thomson of the Bestial New York Giants happened to come to bat, and, by coincidence, Mr. Branca happened to throw a pitch that the aforementioned Mr. Thomson happened to swing at, and, by coincidence, made contact with said pitch and drove it a miserable 309 feet into the first row of the left- field seats of the absurdly apportioned Polo Grounds, thus ending the Dodgers' season and causing a certain 12-year-old, watching on TV, in Brooklyn to burst into tears. Now that was a coincidence! But I digress. Tuesday, May 12 to Wednesday, May 13 Rather than leaving our car at the Seattle Airport Parking Garage (cost for three-plus weeks $468) or at an airport hotel (about $335) we decide to try the new Gig Harbor Taxi (at $95 each way, including tip).

One of the most ethnically diverse of Cardiff's suburbs, with a significant Asian population such as Pakistanis and Indians, Canton has a population just in excess of 13,000. Canton, Cardiff 2 The name (from "St. Canna's Town") refers to the 6th century female saint after whom Pontcanna is also named. Canton, also known as Treganna (tref town + Saint Canna), was a 13th century manor in Llandaff. It became part of Victorian era Cardiff in 1875 [1] . History Middle Ages Canton, or Treganna in the Welsh language, was formed around a 13th century Manor in Cardiff and assumed lands from nearby Llandaff and Leckwith parishes under the stewardship of an Earl (or Baron) de Kanetune, although today the manor comes under the jurisdiction of the Manor of Llandaff. It is believed that Canton is named after St Canna, the holy matron in the Celtic age of Saints, and Canna herself is reputed to have been a relative of King Arthur In 1215 a parishioner called Lucia de Kanetune is recorded as occupying a field ‘near the Earl's wall’.

  • Written Council Questions
    COUNCIL, 28 SEPTEMBER 2017 : WRITTEN QUESTIONS CHAIR OF PUBLIC PROTECTION COMMITTEE (COUNCILLOR JACKIE PARRY) W1 WRITTEN QUESTION FROM COUNTY COUNCILLOR DE’ATH A cross-party group of MPs are lobbying Transport for London to ban the company Uber from the UK capital. The MPs allege Uber is endangering the public, pointing to claims that the firm's drivers carry out a sexual assault every 11 days. The Metropolitan Police have also accused the taxi firm of not reporting all alleged sexual assaults by drivers on passengers. The MPs also argue that the company mistreats its workers, paying them as little as £2 per hour and accuse Uber of not paying VAT on its rides, allegedly escaping £40million in taxes. In a letter on behalf of the group of MPs sent to the head of Transport for London calling for Uber’s operating license not to be extended, Ilford North MP Wes Streeting said: "The safety of Londoners must be at the forefront of decisions taken about the taxi and private hire industry in our capital city. We do not believe that Uber has shown itself to be a fit and proper operator." In light of these developments, what is Cardiff Council’s position on the desirability of Uber operating in the Welsh capital and is the authority considering lobbying to have Uber’s operating license discontinued here? Reply Uber Britannia Ltd was issued with a private hire operator licence by the Council in September 2016 and the current licence remains in force for a maximum of five years. In issuing any operator licence, the Council has to be satisfied that the applicant is fit and proper to hold the licence.

  • The Radyr and Morganstown Association
    THE RADYR AND MORGANSTOWN ASSOCIATION (A Civic Society affiliated to the Civic Trust for Wales ) President: Rhodri Morgan Vice Presidents: Antonia Wigley BBChB Dave Cargill BEM, JP, FCCA Nick Hawkins NEWSLETTER TO MEMBERS – January 2013 Welcome to our regular Newsletter. Honours. We are sure you know already, but we are delighted to repeat here that David Cargill , one of our Vice-Presidents and a former Chairman of the Association, was awarded the British Empire Medal in this year’s Queen’s New Years Honours List. The citation was ‘for services to the community in Radyr and Morganstown’ – which just about sums it up! David has, of course, personally led the running of the May Festival for over 25 years. This year (see below) is his 26 th . In 2002 the Festival changed formally to supporting a Charity and many thousands of pounds have now been raised, not counting the considerable sums that have been raised by our local organisations over those 25 years. Apart from his work with the Association, David has been closely linked with many other R&M organisations, notably the Tennis and Golf Clubs, as well as having served as a Magistrate. The award is thoroughly deserved. We were bound to mention David first but another Radyr resident – Keith Griffin – was awarded the OBE on the same occasion in recognition of his services to music in Wales. Keith may not be as well known to local residents but he is one of the leading musical administrators in the UK, having spent a 40-year career providing invaluable support, advice, practical help and planning to a host of musical organisations - from community brass bands to the visit of Pope John Paul II to Wales in 1982.

They are situated in the east of the Afan Valley, the villages lying approximately 9 miles from the Towns of Port Talbot and Neath. The area is closer to Maesteg and people often travel there for shopping and services as it is easier to get to than Neath or Port Talbot. The villages are located very close to each other – about three quarters of a mile. The local landscape is wooded hills and some farmland. The area is world Entrance to Croeserw renowned for the excellent mountain bike trails. Aerial view of Cymmer looking up the valley The population is, according to the 2011 Census, 2765. This breaks down as 0 – 17 20.8%, 18 - 64 59.5%, 65 and above 19.7%. 988 working age people are economically inactive, this figure, 47.8% been higher than both the NPT average, (29.4%) and Wales (23.0%). 9.7% of the population holds qualifications of Level 4 and above, with the NPT average been 20.8% and Wales as a whole 29.7%. 36.2% of housing is socially rented which is significantly higher than the welsh average of 16.5%. The majority of NPTCBC run facilities are now run and managed by the community. The local comprehensive school closed in July 2019 this has had a devastating impact on the whole valley.

    Jane Hutt AC / AM Y Gweinidog Cyllid a Busnes y Llywodraeth Minister for Finance and Government Business Llywodraeth Cymru Welsh Government Jocelyn Oavies AM Chair, Finance Committee National Assembly for Wales Cardiff Bay Cardiff CF991NA i >J. ~t- November 2015 ~~~, At the Finance Committee's evidence session on 21 October in relation to the Tax Collection and Management (Wales) Bill, I committed to provide further information concerning Section 37 of GOWA 2006, and to review the record and clarify the current situation in discussions with HMRC about the management of Land Transaction Tax (L TT). In relation to Landfill Oisposals Tax (LOT) collection, I referred to Councillor Shotton's letter concerning local government's response to the invitation to consider devolved tax collection and therefore I attach a copy for information. I also confirmed in my Written Statement in June this year and at my attendances at Committee that I would provide the Assembly with an update on work to establish collection and management arrangements. This letter fulfils that commitment. Assembly scrutiny of the Welsh Revenue Authority When discussing how the Assembly might approach the future scrutiny of the Welsh Revenue Authority (WRA) I briefly mentioned section 37 of the Government of Wales Act 2006. I drew attention to this because the section confers broad powers on the Assembly to require a person to attend to give evidence or produce documents. The powers can be exercised by the Audit Committee or such other committee as the Assembly expressly authorise (by standing orders or otherwise). I also mentioned that the Tax Collection and Management Bill (the Bill) includes several measures that provide the Assembly with information to assist it to scrutinise the WRA.

  • Evidence from Minister for Economy, Transport And
    Memorandum on the Economy and Transport Draft Budget Proposals for 2021-22 Economy, Infrastructure and Skills Committee – 20 January 2021 1.0 Introduction This paper provides information on the Economy & Transport (E&T) budget proposals as outlined in the 2021-22 Draft Budget published on 21 December 2020. It also provides an update on specific areas of interest to the Committee. 2.0 Strategic Context / Covid Impacts Aligned to Prosperity for All and the Well Being and Future Generations Act, the Economic Action Plan is the guiding policy and strategy document for all of Welsh Government’s activities. The 2021-22 plan builds on the considerable progress in implementing and embedding key elements of the plan, involving engagement with a range of stakeholders, particularly the business community and social partners. The pathway to Welsh economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic builds on the foundations of Prosperity for All: The Economic Action Plan. This shaped an economic development programme which invests in people and businesses - driving prosperity and reducing inequality across all of Wales. The mission builds on the early progress we have made in raising the profile and challenges in the Foundational Economy, recognising there is more to be done to spread and scale the approach. Other key initiatives, including Prosperity for All: A Low Carbon Wales, Cymraeg 2050, the Employability Delivery Plan and our Fair Work agenda, run through all interventions. The Well-being of Future Generations Act and its wider framework continue to provide a uniquely Welsh way of tackling the long-term challenges that our people and our planet face.
