The Leader welcomed new and returning Councillors and extended congratulations for the success in being elected as a local councillor. The Leader stated that our interview panel is made up of thousands of residents - and they have placed their trust in us to serve them. As councillors work on behalf of their communities we will all be able to rely on the support of our ward colleagues and the tremendous team of officers who provide us with professional and impartial support. The Leader drew attention to the recognition of the work of officers- and all public sector workers- who played such an important role in supporting communities through the pandemic and now on the vital task of recovery and renewal. Joint working with partners across the public services was taken to another level as we worked together to deliver entirely new public services, such as the highly effective Test, Trace, Protect Service and the mass vaccination programme, at speed, to save lives. The Leader focused on the following issues: Cost-of-living crisis, increase the supply of homes to put an end to housing waiting lists and give young people a foot on the housing ladder, and keep the number of rough sleepers at low levels. The Leader emphasised the importance of giving children in Cardiff the best possible education, with not a single one of Cardiff schools placed within an Estyn improvement category. Looking to the future, and in recognition of the urgent need to meet out net zero commitments, this Chamber declared a Climate Emergency. Over the next 5 years we must build on the Council’s investment in energy infrastructure. With the Lamby Way Solar Farm completed, work underway on the Heat Network and £61 million spent on improvements to cycling, bus and active travel, it is time to accelerate the transition to net zero. In closing, the Leader emphasised placed on record his sincere gratitude for the unwavering support of Cabinet colleagues and group over the past 5 years and for the scrutiny and challenge of members across the floor. Recognise the support of trade union colleagues, public sector partners and those in the third sector who have supported this Council to deliver its programme for the city. The Leader stated that we can continue to build a common purpose in creating a Council that delivered for Cardiff, a city that worked for its citizens, and a Capital that leads for its Country. A stronger, fairer, greener capital city. The Leader looked forward to working with all to deliver this in the year to come.
