Mr. Alec Jones

asked the Secretary of State for Wales if he will list those local authorities whom he has met regarding local government reorganisation in Wales since the date of publication of the Local Government Bill, and those authorities whom he has refused to meet.

Mr. Peter Thomas

I met a deputation from Glamorgan County Council on 19th November and a joint deputation from Bangor Borough Council, Bethesda U.D.C. and Ogwen R.D.C. on 15th November.

I could not agree to a request from Glamorgan County Council for a further meeting, on behalf of itself and the East Glamorgan authorities, and separate requests from Rhondda Borough Council, Bedwas and Machen, Bridgend, Caerphilly, Maesteg and Ogmore and Garw U.D.C.s and Cardiff and Penybont R.D.C.s.
