Party of Wales Gwynedd Councillors' Group

The silence and lack of response from the Welsh Labour Government to Cyngor Gwynedd’s request for the right to mark the first of March as a national bank holiday in Wales is “a disgrace to the whole nation” according to one Plaid Cymru Gwynedd Councillor, Elwyn Edwards, Llandderfel, pictured. The response to Gwynedd Councillors' request for a bank holiday status from the Westminster Government's Business and Trade Department, was negative.

Plaid Cymru Gwynedd has started official negotiations with The Crown Estate to press for change and release the county of its obligation to pay lease to the crown for land, coast and seas within the boundaries of Gwynedd. [Photo: Cllr Dewi Jones with Plaid Cymru Gwynedd Leader, Nia Jeffreys and Afon Menai in the background]

Have we seen future councillors at Dafydd Orwig’s chamber in Gwynedd recently? 60 pupils from Ysgol Waunfawr and Bontnewydd visited the council to learn more about its work and to hear what their local county representatives are doing on their behalf.
