Issue - meetings

Consideration was given to the Forward Work Programme for the meeting of the Regeneration Scrutiny Committee scheduled for 8^th December, 2021.

A Member referred to the recent announcement that Henley’s Buses would be ceasing service, and suggested that a special meeting be convened to look at the implications of this on the Ebbw Fach Valley and Town Centres within the Borough.

The Chair confirmed that this would be considered.

A Member also suggested that this could be considered by the Transport Task & Finish Group.

In response to a question raised regarding the Town Centre Task & Finish Group, the Service Manager Regeneration Opportunities confirmed that meetings of the Task & Finish Group would resume later in the month.

The Committee AGREED, subject to the foregoing, that the report be accepted and the Forward Work Programme for 8^th December, 2021 be approved.

A Member reported that the Team Leader Connected Communities would be leaving Blaenau Gwent Council shortly.  Members thanked her for her excellent service to the Council and the support provided to Members during her employment, and wished her every success for the future.
