Questions to be asked on the St Athan consultation supported by the WAG.
Why are reports fron the consultations in July 2008 not been prepared yet! Over 6 months ago!

David Swallow a Director at the Welsh Assembly Government said “This latest phase of
consultation represents an opportunity for the public to comment on the current draft
plans for the site. These comments really do count and it is important that as many people attend as possible so we can move forward together.”
The St Athan consultation website has not been updated and there is no feed back from the
consultations that have already taken place.

I rang the dedicated phone line 0845 618 0016, and asked for the reports and minutes of the consultations that have already taken place but was told there was no minutes as such.

These comments really do count so where can I find or locate any minutes, reports or
feedback from the consultations that have taken place already?
Why is the consultation website so out of date? The latest ‘news’ is 30th June 2008!

Where is there no information on a major partner LS in the consortium pulling out?

Where is the information on the proposal to reduce courses by 25% to save money?

Vale local development plan consultation

Vale of Glamorgan Local Development Plan

Your Vale - Your Future

The Vale of Glamorgan Council is preparing a new Local Development Plan (LDP), which will set out how land within the Vale is used between 2011 and 2026. This includes everything from housing developments, community facilities and employment opportunities to transport, waste management and retailing. The proposals and policies in the LDP will eventually replace those in the Adopted Unitary Development Plan 1996 - 2011.
