There will be a PACT meeting on Tuesday (15th September) evening at 18:30 in Llangatwg School.

Next Sunday, 31st August at Neath police station, from 10 a.m. As part of the attraction, “Local officers will be on hand to show what happens to prisoners in custody”. I would like to know whether there is a duty solicitor available on Sunday morning, but then I’m just paranoid.

There was a useful PACT (Partnerships And Communities Together) meeting at Llangatwg School yesterday evening (22nd July).

The troubles in the unadopted lane behind Caegroes and Cadoxton Terraces were discussed at length. The police community officers announced that they had been given access to the Scout hut for regular use as a sub-base, which would appear to be a major step forward.

The priority items for the next couple of months would be speeding and the illegal use of motorcycles in both Cadoxton and Aberdulais wards. The next meeting is provisionally scheduled for 16th September.

South Wales West AM, Liberal Democrat Peter Black, has made a significant speech to the Council for Wales of Voluntary Youth Services.
