Reforming local government: power to the people

Wednesday 11 March 2015 at the Media Resource Centre, Oxford Road, Llandrindod Wells

On 3 February 2015 the Minister for Public Services, Leighton Andrews AM, published a White Paper which set out the Welsh Government's ambitious plans for the future of Local Government in Wales.

The White Paper contains Welsh Government's proposals for local democracy, including the roles of elected members and senior officers, community governance and community councils, as well as scrutiny and audit. The White Paper also looks to the third sector in a number of areas, including as a source of community activists who could contribute to local democracy, and as partners in community governance and supporting greater connections with communities.

This free half-day event organised by WCVA will provide delegates with opportunities:
to hear from Welsh Government about their intentions for Local Government
to raise views directly with Welsh Government
to consider the implications of the White Paper for the third sector in Wales
to help shape WCVA and the CVCs' response on behalf of the third sector
