  • Bangor Garth Pier: 125 Year Anniversary Digital Programme
    Bangor Garth Pier: 125th year anniversary Digital Programme 1 Foreword “I think it is fair to say that our pier is the jewel in the crown of our great city, affording all who venture upon it some of the finest views imaginable. It has stood as an asset to our city for over 125 years, and it has served the people of this city throughout this time. The pier has faced numerous challenges throughout its journey and perhaps none more-so than the recent structural repairs that have seen an incredible investment of over £1m to ensure the survival of this structure for the next 125 years. With this structural work finished, attention is being turned to further enhancing the aesthetic of its already gorgeous Victorian fittings and to expand its capabilities as an event venue and as a renowned destination both far and wide. I wish we could have marked this historic day with a grand parade in the spirits of that which opened the pier 125 years prior, yet it is a sign of the times that we are unable to do so. Though I will use this space to extend a thank you for all those who have enjoyed the pier over its history and for all those who have looked after it. We can’t turn out as a city today to celebrate its momentous anniversary, but we can, and we will, celebrate the pier in our own way moving forward, be that crabbing off of the end with the family, purchasing an Ice Cream here on a first date, having a warming coffee as you watch the ebb and flow of the tide or simply as you stop to take in the views of Snowdonia from this glorious structure.

  • MEETING AUDIT and GOVERNANCE COMMITTEE DATE 6Th JUNE, 2017 PWNC REVIEW of GWYNEDD ELECTORAL BOUNDARIES AUTHOR Senior Manager
    MEETING AUDIT AND GOVERNANCE COMMITTEE DATE 6th JUNE, 2017 PWNC REVIEW OF GWYNEDD ELECTORAL BOUNDARIES AUTHOR Senior Manager (Corporate Support) RECOMMENDATION To submit draft proposals to the full Council with a view to their submission to the Boundary Commission Background 1. At its meeting on 2 March, the Council received a report on the Boundary Commission's review of the Gwynedd Council electoral boundaries. The report which explains the background of the review can be seen by clicking on the following link:- https://democracy.cyngor.gwynedd.gov.uk/ielistdocuments.aspx?cid=130&mid=1657&ver=4 2. The Commision’s proposals are driven by their own policies including a policy document on the size of councils that is appended to this report. In implementing those policies, the Commission's proposals are likely to lead to a reduction in the number of members on the Council from the current 75 to approximately 67 at the time of the 2022 election, with a further reduction to follow. There is an opportunity for the Council to seek to influence these proposals and the full Council agreed to ask officers to create draft proposals to be shared with all Council members following the election. It should be noted that the proposals have been created mainly to address problems in constituencies which could be under threat as a result of the Commission's work. In some situations, this has resulted in consequential changes in neighbouring constituencies. 3. For Gwynedd, the Boundary Commission has proposed that the average number of electors for each member should be 1,243 electors.

After the last Ice Age came the Holocene, and after that came a newly named epoch – one in which human impact came to define our planet. The Anthropocene is marked by industrialisation, deforestation, mass extinctions, rising sea levels, pollution and climate change. It can also be characterised by nuclear testing, nuclear weapons, nuclear waste and perpetual warfare. In 2020 we all have a job to do... PAGE 2 2019 ELECTION NUCLEAR BUTTONS, BALLOTS AND BREXIT The General Election campaign of 2019 seemed out of the ordinary in many ways. It was marked by tactical voting over Brexit, by electoral pacts, by media smears and bias and by the Right’s depressing reluctance to participate in public hustings. The Tory landslide was based on mendacity and obfuscation. Where did the parties stand on nuclear related issues? Philip Steele offers a personal assessment. • Trident renewal • Civil nuclear One of the strangest credentials for becoming The Greens were the clearest party in opposing Prime Minister these days is declaring proudly the nuclear power.

Foreword The fund assets stood at £1,050m at 31 March 2012, an increase of £25.9m during the year, as shown in the accounts on page 29. It has been a difficult year for investments with volatile markets and significant problems within the Euro zone which inevitably impact on returns. The performance was slightly below the benchmark for the year with the Fund returning 0.5% on investments, compared with a benchmark of 0.7% for that period. During the year the performance of individual managers is regularly assessed and due to consistently poor returns from Capital International the decision was made to terminate their mandate and appoint a new manager in their place.

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 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 Gwynedd 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.
