    Minutes of the meeting held on the 21 January 2020. PRESENT Clrs Davies, Evans, Morgan-Evans, Keates, Bentley, R Morgan, Catley, Rippin and Cty Clr Jones. Also present were the representatives of LRM Planning, Monmouthshire Housing Association and P&P Builders as well as a good number of local residents. APOLOGIES Clrs T Morgan, Phillips and Woodier. The first item on the Agenda was a DISCUSSION/QUESTION AND ANSWER SESSION with members of the public, councillors and the three representatives of MHA, P&P Builders and LRM Planning participating in a lively debate re the proposed housing development on Land to the South-West of Wern Gifford. Further clarification was sought by those present on issues already raised by the Community Council and private members of the public in their initial Pre- Application Response to the three organisations above as well as to Welsh Water/Dwr Cymru who were not present on the night but who would be attending the next Community Council Meeting on the 18 February. In no particular order of concern, the following points were raised: 1. Contrary to policy already outlined by MCC, relating to its preference for mixed housing developments, it was observed that this was a development relating completely to social/affordable housing. The answer given was that this was because partial grant funding had been obtained from the Welsh Government. 2. Access to the development (both when under construction and afterwards ) would have an enormous environmental impact owing to the increased traffic flow into Wern Gifford Estate especially around the Primary School entrance with children’s safety issues already a great concern.

  • Church in Wales Review July 2012
    Church in Wales Review July 2012 The September 2010 meeting of the Governing Body was notable for the number of contributions from members with a common message: “The Church in Wales cannot go on doing the same things in the same way; some things need to change and we are open to – and indeed encourage – that possibility”. The Standing Committee and Bench of Bishops responded to this call by appointing an external review of the Church, with particular reference to its structures and use of resources, to increase the effectiveness of the Church’s ministry and witness. The Review Group’s members are prominent thinkers with a blend of experience in dealing with matters ecclesiastical and organisational: Lord Harries of Pentregarth, the former Bishop of Oxford; Professor Charles Handy, the eminent writer and adviser on business and organisational theory (and son of a Church of Ireland archdeacon); and Professor Patricia Peattie, former Convenor of the Scottish Episcopal Church’s Standing Committee and the first chairwoman of the Lothian University Hospitals NHS Trust. The aim was to commission a review that could move quickly to gather and assimilate information about the state of the Church in Wales, then provide independent advice on how the Church might reshape itself to be more effective in the twenty-first century. Given the extent of its members’ other commitments, the Review Group has pursued its task with extraordinary vigour and dedication. The Group determined its own approach and programme. It has visited every diocese in Wales, meeting with the Bishop and Diocesan team in each and holding an open meeting for Church members to express their views.
