The Cabinet Member considered applications received for Local Authority Governor vacancies within the county. Nominations had been invited from the Chairperson, Head teacher and Local Member(s) in the case of Primary Schools/ the member(s) who were governors in the case of Secondary Schools. It was noted that Local Authority Governors are appointed for 4 years, and where the vacancy has occurred as a result of an individual’s term of office coming to an end, this was noted in the details for that particular person if he/she was seeking appointment. It was also noted that all County Councillors, when elected, could stipulate which school governing bodies they would sit, and their decision would take preference over ‘non-elected’ LA Governors. Consequently, County Councillors could nominate to serve as LA Governors on a school that did not have a vacant post and in the event of the governorship becoming oversubscribed, the Council would stipulate which LA Governor was required to stand down. RESOLVED that, in order to meet statutory obligations for filling vacancies on Governing Bodies and having considered the applications received, the following appointments be made to vacancies for Local Authority Governors:- Primary School Appointments Brynsaron (2 vacancies – 1 Current and 1 from 27th March) Cllr. Ken Howell Carreg Hirfaen (1 vacancy – 1 nomination) Rev. C. Hamilton Cross Hands – Drefach Federation (2 vacancies - 1 nomination) Mr. A. Arnott Dafen (1 vacancy - 1 nomination) Mr. M. P.

Councillors must say when they have a personal link to something being discussed, such as a job, a property or a family member. A prejudicial interest is one strong enough that the councillor usually leaves the room and takes no part.
Declarations are read from the minutes once they are published.
