Mark Isherwood, MS for North Wales
By Mark Isherwood, MS for North Wales Despite Welsh Government Ministers and all five other North Wales county councils confirming that local authorities have discretion to pay out Business Grants to self-catering businesses unable to meet Welsh Government eligibility criteria, but able to prove they are a legitimate business, Flintshire Council alone continues to insist that they are ineligible, leaving several struggling. Questioning the First Minister, I therefore called on him to place on the record that local authorities are able to use their discretion to support such businesses, and he confirmed this to be the case. It is therefore shocking that Flintshire Council alone is still rejecting this, when equivalent businesses in every other North Wales county have received this essential support from their councils.
