Harris (Goldcliff) 2 Minutes of the Previous Meeting: 6 December 2018 Agreed: To confirm the minutes of the meeting held on the 6th December 2018 3 Matters Arising Matters Arising A question was asked in relation to Nash Community Hall and information regarding charges on the hall. The Chair explained that this would need to be followed up with the Head of Finance. The Chair commented that if Nash Community Hall hired the hall for non-profit then they were entitled to the rates exemption. If the Hall was leased exclusively to a class, then the Hall would be charged. A representative stated that management of the working group was required for the halls to prosper so they are hired out and used all day. The representative stated that the money made was used on the hall and it was not hired out to Newport City Council to hold elections, it was to be used for local residents. It was requested by the Chair for Nash Community Council to be consulted on the above information. A representative asked whether political interest should be declared on the Declaration of Interest Form. The Chair confirmed that it was good practice to fill it in but this was not compulsory.

The Corporate Plan has a special importance for me as this is where our administration sets out the key things it will do to improve people’s lives, identifying clear themes, objectives and bringing coherence to the many services we run. It also allows us to monitor how well we are doing, where we need to improve and makes us accountable to citizens, regulators and commissioners. This report builds upon the progress that was made in the first year of this plan and outlines the progress we are making across our services, where we rank amongst the very best performing authorities for key performance measures. These include work areas that have the biggest influence on our future generations, for instance reducing the number of young people who are not in education, employment or training. We are also one of the few Councils in Wales bringing empty private properties back into use.
