Carmarthen county council’s executive committee have deferred a decision on funding public toilets. Lets keep fighting for our villages and common sense on this issue.
Decision on public toilets deferred by Council Exec.
Save Our Public Toilets Campaign
Dear Elector,
Your active support is needed now! Please use these statements to lobby your County Councillor this weekend. His/her support is urgently needed in the County Council Revenue Budget 2013/14 meeting on Tuesday 26 February.
1. Partnership working & accountability: We want to work in partnership with the County Council to rationalise public convenience responsibilities in a way that is politically and financially feasible – in line with the spirit embodied within the ‘Carmarthenshire Community Strategy: Thinking Together, Planning Together and Doing Together 2004-2020.’
2. Strategic examination: We want a firm commitment that the County Council will undertake a strategic examination of the public convenience stock over the coming months, in place of the current blanket quick-fix approach aimed solely at budget-cutting. This strategic examination must be based on in-depth research, financial feasibility studies, SWOT analyses and meaningful consultations with communities, tourist organisations and small businesses.
3. In consequence the public conveniences expenditure allocation in the County Council Revenue Budget 2013-2014 must remain the same as that allocated in 2012-2013.
Contact your county councillor before Feb 26th

Right now, plans are going through parliament about the future of our energy. But George Osborne is blocking a crucial element: a watertight target for the UK to produce carbon-free electricity by 2030.
Tim Yeo MP, the former Conservative environment minister, has put down a green amendment to the the government’s energy plans. It’s exactly what’s needed to make sure a firm target is in place.
MPs have a choice. Do they stand up for a cleaner, greener Britain, or do they side with Osborne and his dirty fossil fuels? It’s up to us to persuade them to side with Tim Yeo. Can you email your MP now to make sure they support the amendment?

OIL GROUP
You are probably aware that by buying oil as a group you can enjoy cheaper rates.
I am prepared to order oil for people living in Ferryside
However, there are certain conditions:
I use J E Lawrence, whose rates are very competitive, and if you pay the driver or send payment to them within a week of delivery you qualify for a discount.
By ordering oil this way the company sends out less tankers, which in turn must be kinder to our environment.
