Conwy Council offices Bodlondeb..KR261117f.
County councillors have savaged what they see as Welsh Government proposals to force local authority “amalgamation by the back door”.
Conwy council’s cabinet discussed its response to the proposed North Wales Regional Corporate Joint Committee (CJC), or so-called “super-council”, at its meeting on Wednesday.
The new unelected layer of government would sit above all six North Wales local authorities and Snowdonia National Park.
The seven authorities’ elected leaders would sit on the new committee with no requirement to run ideas before their respective bodies, nor any opportunity to veto plans that could damage their home organisation.
