On 16 June I wrote to members to set out the current position in respect of the current programme of Electoral Arrangements Reviews. I also set out the process by which I intend to communicate my decisions about each area.


This included my commitment to provide regular updates to members through written statements. This is the ninth of these statements.


On 28 September I wrote to the Leader and Chief Executive of the County of Gwynedd to confirm my decision to accept the recommendations of the Local Democracy and Boundary Commission for Wales with modifications, in respect of the County of Gwynedd.


The Local Democracy and Boundary Commission for Wales Final Recommendations Report for the County of Gwynedd can be found here. The modifications made to these recommendations are set out in the annex to this statement.


I also wrote to the Leader and Chief Executive of the County of Monmouthshire to confirm my decision to accept the recommendations of the Local Democracy and Boundary Commission for Wales with modifications, in respect of the County of Monmouthshire.


The Local Democracy and Boundary Commission for Wales Final Recommendations Report for the County of Monmouthshire can be found here. The modifications made to these recommendations are set out in the annex to this statement.

Ar 16 Mehefin, ysgrifennais at yr Aelodau i amlinellu sefyllfa bresennol y rhaglen o Adolygiadau Trefniadau Etholiadol sy’n mynd rhagddi. Nodais hefyd sut yr oeddwn yn bwriadu cyfathrebu fy mhenderfyniadau ynglŷn â phob ardal.


Roedd hyn yn cynnwys fy ymrwymiad i roi’r wybodaeth ddiweddaraf i’r Aelodau yn rheolaidd drwy ddatganiadau ysgrifenedig. Dyma’r nawfed o’r datganiadau hynny.

Yn ogystal, ysgrifennais at Arweinydd a Phrif Weithredwr Sir Fynwy i gadarnhau fy mhenderfyniad i dderbyn argymhellion Comisiwn Ffiniau a Democratiaeth Leol Cymru gydag addasiadau, mewn perthynas â Sir Fynwy.
