Dyfed Invertebrate Group Has Received Amongst Entomologists Nationwide and There Are Now Almost One Hundred Subscribers to the Newsletter
DYFED INVERTEBRATE GROUP NEWSLETTER N°. 2 June 1986 We have been gratified by the reception that the formation of the Dyfed Invertebrate Group has received amongst entomologists nationwide and there are now almost one hundred subscribers to the Newsletter. This is a sound base upon which to establish our contribution to invertebrate conservation in west Wales and the specialists involved cover a very wide range of groups. With the summer now upon us (or so I'm reliably informed) the impetus should be there for us all to get out 'in the field' and add to our knowledge of the distribution and ecological requirements of the county fauna. Do remember to send in your records to the relevant county recorders and keep us informed of any interesting observations. The Newsletter is here to ensure that significant records and accounts of methodical surveys find their way in to print. We would welcome more feed-back from subscribers, both in the form of articles for the Newsletter and suggestions for the improvement of DIG - do drop us a line from time to time and tell us how your invertebrate work is progressing. Which brings me to the thorny problem of subscriptions! The DIG Newsletter is produced entirely through the kindness of NCC Dyfed-Powys in allowing us access to secretarial and photo-copying facilities. However, we would appreciate assistance with postage and hence the subscription for 1986 will be four First Class Stamps. Please send your 'subscription' to the Editor during the course of the summer. We regret that the September issue of the Newsletter will not be sent to members who have not forwarded their subscription in time. -

Ceredigion Welsh District Council Elections Results 1973-1991
Ceredigion 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. -

Introduction The Flood Response Plan is a specific hazard plan required by Category 1 responders under the Civil Contingencies Act 2004. It outlines the Ceredigion County Council response to a flood event and is supported by individual service procedures and other generic corporate plans. The Flood Response Plan describes the management structures and procedures used by the Council in response to a flooding event in Ceredigion, focusing upon the roles within the coordinated response of a number of agencies. The aim of any response is to mitigate the effects of an incident on people, infrastructure and the environment and aid recovery. It is the responsibility of owners and occupiers of properties to protect their property in the event of flooding. -

Coed Penglanowen Nanteos, Ceredigion
50. Coed Penglanowen Nanteos, Ceredigion Grid References O.S. Explorer map 213 Aberystwyth & Cwm Rheidol. Main entrance: SN611786, Site centre: SN609785 Status Tenure The site was purchased in 1978 with grant aid from WWF, and with the help of donations in memory of the late Mr. E.H. Chater, in whose memory the reserve is dedicated. Size 5.3 ha (13.1 acres). Location and 5 km south east of Aberystwyth, just south of, and adjacent to, Access Notes Old Warren Hill NR. From the B4340 to Trawsgoed take the minor road signposted Nanteos and park in the dedicated layby near the eastern entrance gate. There is one circular walk that includes two bridges, and a second path to the eastern end of the reserve. Inaccessible to wheelchairs. Public transport The Aberystwyth circular town service stops in Penparcau, from where the reserve is just over a 2 km walk. Description: Mixed estate planted woodland. The woodland canopy is varied, including species such as Ash, Beech, Sessile Oak, Holly, Sycamore, Wych Elm, and Grand Fir, typical of woods associated with large country houses in west Wales. Some of these specimens are extremely large, including the county’s tallest tree, a specimen of Sequoiadendron giganteum. The diversity of mature trees provides an excellent habitat for hole nesting birds and all three woodpecker species have been recorded in the past, together with Nuthatch, Pied Flycatcher, Stock Dove, Tawny Owl, and Treecreeper. The wood is rich in lichens and fungi, with the shade loving crustose lichen Enterographa crassa being particularly abundant, an indicator of the longevity of woodland cover on this site. -

Any enquiries regarding this publication should be sent to the Commission at [email protected] This document is also available from our website at www.ldbc.gov.wales FOREWORD The Commission is pleased to present this Report to the Minister, which contains its recommendations for revised electoral arrangements for the County of Ceredigion. This review is part of the programme of reviews being conducted under the Local Government (Democracy) (Wales) Act 2013, and follows the principles contained in the Commission’s Policy and Practice document. The issue of fairness is at the heart of the Commission’s statutory responsibilities. The Commission’s objective has been to make recommendations that provide for effective and convenient local government, and which respect, as far as possible, local community ties. The recommendations are aimed at improving electoral parity, so that the vote of an individual elector has as equal a value to those of other electors throughout the County, so far as it is possible to achieve. The Commission is grateful to the Members and Officers of Ceredigion County Council for their assistance in its work, to the Community and Town Councils for their valuable contributions, and to all who have made representations throughout the process.
