Advice Surgery at Hay Library

 Gareth Ratcliffe will be holding an advice surgery, as Hay's County Councillor, at Hay Library on Saturday 2nd September from 10am to 11am.  

Since the time is limited, appointments are first come, first served, for anyone who's got concerns about local issues, or need help with personal challenges.

Gareth is happy to arrange meetings at other times for anyone who can't attend on Saturday, and he can be reached on 07974353121 or email cllr.gareth.ratcliffe@powys/gov.uk 

Recently, Gareth tabled a debate on water pollution at the County Council meeting, and the result of this was a decision to call upon the Welsh Government to set up a monitoring framework to assess the phosphate levels in our rivers.  They also want to see more funding from National Government so that bodies like the NRW can do their jobs properly, and they want Welsh Water to upgrade their sewage systems so that they no longer release sewage into the rivers, as well as upgrading the current pipeline system.

So far they have recieved a reply from Welsh Water, which says that they are working on upgrading the system.  The full letter can be read on Gareth's Facebook page Cllr Gareth Ratcliffe News and Updates.
