Following calls by the Assembly Member for Aberconwy, a committee of Conwy County Borough Council has voted against the introduction of four-weekly bin collections.

Janet said:

“I am pleased that, following considerable public and political pressure, the Council has seen sense.

“Councillors sitting on this Committee have stood up for their residents, and justified the faith their electorate placed in them at the elections earlier this year.

“Residents being forced to pay more and more each year for their council tax should not have to suffer reduced services – and the proposal for four-weekly collections was frankly absurd.”
