Everyone should read it. We urgently need answers to some of the deeply worrying questions thrown up by these revelations.Veritynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-791817892794754996.post-30074675122576583252017-05-26T16:59:19.519+01:002017-05-26T16:59:19.519+01:00@CllrLenny

There is nothing on the council website to advise people how they can ask a question for a start, and of course we can ask questions at full council, Exec Board and Scrutiny meetings. Better public engagement, from policy decisions to the practicalities of asking a question is the answer, not more rules.<br />If you want to recommend something to CRWG, suggest they remove the suspended libel clause.caebrwynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17233902574832152764noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-791817892794754996.post-6301239056576721612017-05-26T15:32:31.879+01:002017-05-26T15:32:31.879+01:00Having wandered on to CPP via Cneifiwr, I notice t...Having wandered on to CPP via Cneifiwr, I notice that I'm mentioned in dispatches. To explain. You correctly attributed my (personal) amendment to Council Procedure Rules - formerly Standing Orders - to the outrageous situation when the anti-Welsh Language Education brigade from Llangennech hijacked a County Council meeting by making lengthy speeches prior to asking their questions. During this tirade, we as elected members had no means of reply. And no, as individual councillors, we cannot use the Press Dept. If people care to look at the webcast, they'll see that I strongly support the provision for the public to ask questions. In my view, too few do that, which is why I actively urged them to do so. My gripe is with those who abuse the provision, hence my amendment. <br />Cllr Alun Lennynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-791817892794754996.post-55783962289149129082017-05-26T08:45:24.732+01:002017-05-26T08:45:24.732+01:00
