RESOLVED that the following recommendations of the Cabinet be adopted: 6.1.1 That the Budget Strategy for 2026/27, which included the amendments at paragraph 4.1.7 be approved; 6.1.2 To approve the Band D Council Tax for 2026/27 of £1,830.97 (an increase of 4.9%); 6.1.3 The removal of specific savings proposals as identified in paragraph 3.2.7 and increased investment set out in paragraph 3.3.3 be approved; and 6.1.4 To approve the Medium Term Financial Plan which will form the basis of future years planning.
(: Councillors R. James, K. Madge and B.A.L Roberts had earlier declared an interest in this item remained in the meeting and took part in the discussion and voting thereon. : Councillor N. Evans at this point in the proceedings declared a personal interest in this item and remained in the meeting during the consideration and determination thereof). Council was informed that the Cabinet, at its meeting held on the 16th February 2026 (Minute 6 Refers) had considered the Revenue Budget Strategy 2026/27 – 2028/29 and made a number of recommendations, as detailed within the report of the Director of Corporate Services, for Council’s consideration. The Council was reminded that the provisional settlement represented a 2.3% increase for Carmarthenshire, which, taking account of the ‘transfers-in’, equated to £17.9m and would have resulted a substantial funding shortfall due to the scale of the additional cost pressures facing the Authority. The Cabinet Member for Resources was however pleased to report that the Authority’s financial position had significantly improved following a Senedd budget deal that would provide additional funding of almost £6.5m for Carmarthenshire. When combined with other adjustments as set out in the report, it resulted in a net improvement in the council's financial position of almost £3m, in addition to eradicating the £3.5m projected shortfall. Members were appraised of the budget consultation process as set out at Appendix C to the report which had received over 1,200 responses. In light of the feedback received, and enabled by the extra funding, the council’s final budget removed some cuts previously being considered, allowed for investment in key services and reduced the level of council tax increase to 4.9%. In this regard, attention was brought to section 3 of the report whereby it was proposed that the removal of budget cuts would be made to highways, children’s services families together team, school meal price increases and outdoor education provision, with additional investment in property maintenance, the modernising education team and increased essential support for the Welsh Language in education. It also provided a further £250,000 to be spent on highways this year. This was in addition to the £4m which was part of the extra £12m being spent over three years on highways works through supported borrowing. Next year, it was proposed that £250,000 should be committed to borrow £3m to continue enhanced highway refurbishments. Additionally, following feedback from councillors and young people about the importance of outdoor education provision, it was advised that the proposal to cease Pendine Outdoor Education Centre in 2027/28 was removed, giving time for the ongoing feasibility work to identify a more sustainable long‑term model. It was advised that following the consultation and subsequent budget adjustments, the previously proposed increase of 6.5% to Council Tax, would now be a reduced increase of 4.9%. The Cabinet Member for Resources advised that while this remained higher than hoped, it reflected the ongoing pressures faced by councils across Wales, including rising demand for services, coupled with persistent financial challenges. Reference was made to the council’s Medium-Term Financial Plan which provided a robust financial framework and which identified the significant risks inherent in the budget as detailed within the report. For 2027/28 and 2028/29, savings of £4.5m and £5m respectively would need to be identified to achieve balanced budgets. A summary of the final budget amendments was detailed in section 4.1.7 in the report. The implications on the 2026/27 Budget of the latest proposals were as follows: · Proposed Net County Council Budget of £541.527m · Proposed Council Tax increase of 4.9% for 2026/27 – Band D of £1,830.97 In closing, it was considered that implementation of the proposals detailed within the report would provide a budget strategy which responded to the consultation, ensured, as far as possible, that service levels and standards could be maintained with core services protected, and which prepared the Authority for future uncertainties and enhanced the Council’s ability to invest in Carmarthenshire’s long term development. Concerns were raised due to the fact the budget had only been made possible by a one-off £5 million contribution from the Dyfed Pension Fund alongside additional national support from the UK and Welsh Labour governments, helping to keep council tax increases broadly in line with the cost of living. It was stated that this would not resolve the council’s underlying financial pressures, including recurring overspends in Children’s Services and Adult Social Care, rising demand in Additional Learning Needs provision, and continued reliance on post reductions as a form of efficiency. It was suggested that a whole-service review of the council’s services, using national audit evidence to redesign delivery around integration, prevention, and better use of data and technology should be undertaken to ensure delivery of genuine efficiencies while protecting frontline services. RESOLVED that the following recommendations of the Cabinet be adopted: 6.1.1 That the Budget Strategy for 2026/27, which included the amendments at paragraph 4.1.7 be approved; 6.1.2 To approve the Band D Council Tax for 2026/27 of £1,830.97 (an increase of 4.9%); 6.1.3 The removal of specific savings proposals as identified in paragraph 3.2.7 and increased investment set out in paragraph 3.3.3 be approved; and 6.1.4 To approve the Medium Term Financial Plan which will form the basis of future years planning.
Decision as recorded
RESOLVED that the following recommendations of the Cabinet be adopted: 6.2.1 that the five-year Capital Programme and funding as detailed in Appendix A, with 2026/27 being a hard budget and 2027/28 to 2030/31 soft/indicative budgets, be approved; 6.2.2 that the programme be reviewed, as is usual, if anticipated external or county council funding does not materialise; 6.2.3 that the Capital Strategy in Appendix C, be approved.
(: Councillors M. James, and W.T Evans had earlier declared an interest in this item remained in the meeting and took part in the discussion and voting thereon. : At this point in the proceedings, Councillors R. James, A.G. Morgan, M. Thomas and S. Godfrey-Coles declared a personal interest in this item and remained in the meeting during the consideration and determination thereof. : During consideration of this item the meeting was adjourned for 10 minutes to resolve a technical issue). Council was informed that the Cabinet, at its meeting held on the 16th February 2026 (Minute 7 Refers) had considered a report which brought together the latest proposals for the five-year capital programme 2026/27 to 2030/31, taking account of the consultation exercise undertaken and the revenue implications arising from the programme. Council was advised that the five-year capital investment totalled £150 million, made up of funding sources from Welsh Government, UK Government and the council's own resources which would be allocated as follows: · £25 million for school buildings and children’s homes, · £13 million for Disability Facilities Grants, · £15 million for Social Services (including a new residential care home and children’s homes), · £30 million for Economic Development, · £56 million for highways and recycling infrastructure, · £4 million for digital IT infrastructure, · £1 million for Burry Port Harbour and · £6 million for a corporate investment fund for future projects. Council was appraised of the recent and ongoing projects from previous programmes, together with the key proposals in the new capital programme to deliver first class and modern facilities across the county. The proposed gross expenditure on the capital programme for 2026/27 totalled £68.004m, with the internal funding being £47.731m from the county council’s own resources through the application of borrowing, reserves, direct revenue financing, capital receipts and general capital grant, and the balance of £20.273m coming from external sources. The Cabinet Member for Resources informed members that the new capital programme was fully funded in year one of the programme, however the proposed capital investment within years two to five of the new programme exceeded the available identified funds by £1.31m, which would therefore need to be identified in due course, or the scope of investments amended accordingly. The Cabinet Member for Resources stated that economic development was a priority to create and protect jobs and stated that £15.5m Levelling Up funding had been attracted for Llanelli Town Centre. This, together with £2.5m funding from Council resources, would enable the relocation of Llanelli Market to Vaughan Street, due to the necessary demolition of Murray Street Carpark. There would also be continued support for the Ten Towns initiative to support rural areas and other more urban areas. In addition, there would be £2m in 2030/31 to match fund future economic development projects, totalling £7.5 million over five years. Council considered the Authority’s capital strategy set out at Appendix C to the report, required by the prudential code for capital finance in local authorities, which set out the long-term context for capital expenditure and investment decisions. The Strategy considered the risk, reward and impact on the achievement of priority outcomes and covered expenditure on both the Council Fund and HRA capital. The Cabinet Member for Resource concluded that despite the difficulties of the current economic environment, the proposed capital programme would provide significant investment over the next five years with schemes to develop the local economy, create jobs, and enhance the quality of life for the county’s residents and visitors, while safeguarding resources for future generations. A number of statements were made in response to the proposals of the capital programme and expressed their appreciation in terms of the ongoing projects and provided their concerns in relation to the future challenges faced by the current financial climate and concerns regarding future projects. However, it was stated that the county’s overall capital strategy did not deliver a fair or balanced approach across Carmarthenshire‘s communities and that regeneration funding must be used to generate employment, housing opportunities and to revitalise town centres. Greater transparency surrounding rising costs linked to the Debenhams redevelopment was called for seeking clarification on project management decisions, long-term liabilities and future operating costs to ensure value for money. RESOLVED that the following recommendations of the Cabinet be adopted: 6.2.1 that the five-year Capital Programme and funding as detailed in Appendix A, with 2026/27 being a hard budget and 2027/28 to 2030/31 soft/indicative budgets, be approved; 6.2.2 that the programme be reviewed, as is usual, if anticipated external or county council funding does not materialise; 6.2.3 that the Capital Strategy in Appendix C, be approved.
Decision as recorded
RESOLVED that the following recommendations of the Cabinet be adopted: 6.3.1 that the Treasury Management Policy and strategy for 2026-27 and recommendations contained therein, be approved; 6.3.2 that the Treasury Management Indicators, Prudential Indicators, the Minimum Revenue Provision Statement, the Investment Strategy and recommendations contained therein, be approved.
Council was informed that the Cabinet, at its meeting held on 16th February 2026 (minute 8 refers) had considered the Treasury Management Policy and Strategy 2026/27. Council had agreed to maintain a Treasury Management Policy detailing the policies and objectives of the Authority’s treasury management activities and to also approve a Treasury Management Strategy annually before the start of the financial year to which it related. In accordance with these requirements, Council considered the Treasury Management Policy and Strategy for 2026/27 which outlined the procedures for managing borrowing and investments, including the limits on both. Appendix A to the report detailed the Treasury Management Practices and set out how the Council would seek to achieve its Treasury policies and objectives and how those activities would be managed and controlled. Appendix B to the report set out the council’s approach to security, liquidity and yield benchmarking undertaken in line with the Authority’s risk appetite and in accordance with the schedule of approved counterparties for lending as detailed in Appendix C to the report. In addition, under the Local Government Act 2003 the Council was to approve the Treasury Management Indicators for the coming year as detailed in Appendix D to the report. Appendix E to the report outlined the Minimum Revenue Provision Statement, which set out the Authority’s prudent debt repayment policy and which was generally based on an average asset useful economic life of 40 years. UNANAMOUSLY RESOLVED that the following recommendations of the Cabinet be adopted: 6.3.1 that the Treasury Management Policy and strategy for 2026-27 and recommendations contained therein, be approved; 6.3.2 that the Treasury Management Indicators, Prudential Indicators, the Minimum Revenue Provision Statement, the Investment Strategy and recommendations contained therein, be approved.
Decision as recorded
RESOLVED: 6.4.1 to note the findings and recommendations of the Carmarthenshire Panel Performance Assessment; 6.4.2 to agree to the recommendations and response to the report.
Council was informed that the Cabinet, at its meeting held on the 26th January 2026 (Minute 6 Refers) had considered the Carmarthenshire Panel Performance Assessment Report and the Council response. It was noted that the Local Government and Elections (Wales) Act 2021 placed a duty on Councils to arrange for a panel to undertake and respond to a corporate, organisational level assessment, at least once during the period between two consecutive ordinary elections of councillors to the Council, of the extent to which the Council was meeting its performance requirements. The Leader of the Council highlighted that the Carmarthenshire PPA was undertaken between 10-13 June 2025 and had received the final report and recommendations of the Panel. The overall conclusion of the report was that ‘’Carmarthenshire is a well-run and values-based organisation with strong and visible leadership at political and officer level and has an awareness of its key challenges’’. The Leader of the Council took the opportunity to thank officers who were involved with organising the review and stated the importance of understanding peer feedback. The recommendations focused on 4 specific areas which were to strengthen preventative work within children's services, ways to further strengthen financial planning and in the medium term, an opportunity to revitalise the transformation programme and also steps to strengthen work on education and schools. The report and the Council’s response was presented to the Governance & Audit Committee for consideration on the 19th December, 2025 meeting. The Committee welcomed the report and Council response and had no further comments or suggestions for Council to consider. In response to a concern raised regarding the arrangements in place to safeguard funding for cores services, assurance was provided that the authority was committed in ensuring that core services received the appropriate investment and protected from any potential adverse funding challenges. RESOLVED: 6.4.1 to note the findings and recommendations of the Carmarthenshire Panel Performance Assessment; 6.4.2 to agree to the recommendations and response to the report.

: Councillor M. Palfreman had earlier declared an interest in this item remained in the meeting and took part in the discussion but did not vote. Councillors H. Jones and R. James having earlier declared an interest in this item, left the meeting prior to the consideration and determination thereof.) Council considered the following Notice of Motion submitted by Councillors Alex Evans and Tyssul Evans:- “This Council recognises the vital role that local GP surgeries play in providing accessible primary care, particularly in rural communities, and notes the growing pressures on GP services caused by workforce shortages and rising demand. Council also notes that poor public transport provision creates additional barriers for patients in accessing primary care. Council further recognises its responsibility to raise concerns on behalf of residents where proposed changes to health services risk reducing access to care and increasing pressure on already stretched services. This Council: · Notes with serious concern the potential closure by Hywel Dda University Health Board of Meddygfa’r Sarn GP surgery in Pontyates, which would force over 4,300 registered patients to relocate to GP surgeries in Pontyberem, Kidwelly and Llanelli, placing additional pressure on those practices; · Further notes that the closure of Meddygfa’r Sarn would have a disproportionate impact on older residents, disabled residents, carers, and those without access to private transport; · Expresses serious concern that ongoing failures at national level to train, recruit and retain sufficient numbers of GPs are contributing to the closure of local GP surgeries, with the impact on residents compounded by a poor public transport network that leaves many with no realistic way of accessing alternative services; · Notes significant shortcomings in Hywel Dda’s current engagement. The aims, structure and scope of the engagement are fundamentally inadequate, narrowing consideration to the consequences of closure and preventing a full consideration of how local primary care services can be maintained in Pontyates. Accordingly, this Council resolves to: 1. Write formally to the Cabinet Secretary for Health and Social Care to: · set out the Council’s serious concerns regarding the potential closure of Meddygfa’r Sarn, including the displacement of over 4,300 patients, the impact on access to primary care, and the resulting pressure on neighbouring GP practices; · seek a clear explanation of what steps Welsh Government is taking to ensure sufficient GP training, recruitment and retention are in place to prevent further closures of GP surgeries, particularly in rural communities; and · call on the Cabinet Secretary for Health and Social Care to set out what steps will be taken to ensure that alternatives to closure are properly considered before any final decision is taken on the future of Meddygfa’r Sarn. 2. Write formally to the Chair and Chief Executive of Hywel Dda University Health Board to: · request the urgent publication of both a Health Impact Assessment and an Equality Impact Assessment relating to any proposed change to services at Meddygfa’r Sarn, and to confirm that no further decisions will be taken before these assessments are published and considered; · seek clarification as to why the Board report considered on 29 January 2026 identified a preferred option of closure prior to any consultation or engagement with affected communities; · request the urgent publication of the assessment of all alternative options to closure, including how these were evaluated and discounted’’ The Motion was duly seconded. The proposer and seconder of the Motion were afforded the opportunity of speaking in support thereof and the proposer proceeded to outline the reasons for its submission, as set out in the Motion. A number of statements were made in support of the Motion and several observations made in relation to the wording of the Motion. Following a vote, it was: Resolved that the Notice of Motion be supported.
The Chair advised that no public questions had been received.
“This Council’s Welsh Language Promotion Strategy 2023/28 aims to restore Welsh as the County’s main language, focussing on every day use in public institutions, businesses, and general correspondence. Using the circumflex accent (y to bach), as demonstrated in Tŷ Elwyn and Sŵn y Môr, is grammatically correct and is crucial to unlocking the correct pronunciation and meaning of Welsh words, as well as distinguishing between words that are spelled the same. Sadly, there are many examples where this significant aspect of the Welsh Language is not being used in Carmarthenshire, potentially confusing learners and those wishing to improve their Welsh as well as being perceived as disrespectful to the language. As the Cabinet Member with responsibility for the Welsh Language, what is your strategy of ensuring that the circumflex accent is used throughout Carmarthenshire where this Council has the influence to do so?” Response by Councillor Carys Jones, Cabinet Member for Rural Affairs, Communities and Welsh Language. “Many thanks to Councillor John James for the question. It is difficult to understand exactly what you are referring to because the use of Welsh is so widespread, and the circumflex is detailed but I will do my best to answer the question – "what is your strategy to ensure that the circumflex accent is used throughout Carmarthenshire where this Council has the influence to do so?" In a nutshell, we have lots of strategies in the County and with other partners such as: · The Welsh Language Promotion Strategy 2023 – 28 · County Strategic Forum for the Welsh Language · Welsh Language Advisory Panel · Carmarthenshire Street Naming and Numbering Policy · Welsh for Carmarthenshire Business via the National Centre for Learning Welsh for Work Scheme · The Arfor Scheme · Menter Iaith and many more. Also within the Council we have a Translation Unit who work to a very high standard in terms of written translation and proofreading, officers are clearly encouraged to contact the Unit in relation to any signs or work required for the public. We have effective software in terms of automatic language correction, and placement of the accent (to bach) where appropriate; and the ability to add the accent using our keyboard and also with the Cysgeir and Cysill software apps to check our own work. We also have a list of standard Place Names within the Council and access to the standard Welsh place name list from the Welsh Language Commissioner. So, maybe if you could direct us to a specific area, maybe that would be easier in an email for details or areas you are looking at specifically – is it social media, reports, marketing material, educational resources, digital screens and so on and then I can try to offer a solution. Supplementary Question by Councillor James ‘’I am disappointed that the Councillor couldn’t understand what the question was as I think it spells everything out. What I am asking for is assurances and you have given most already but words such as Bryn Y Môr have got the circumflex in it as we have had a lot of examples brought to our attention where the ‘to’ isn’t being used.’’ Response by Councillor Carys Jones, Cabinet Member for Rural Affairs, Communities and Welsh Language. ’’I’m happy to take a list of any of the cases you have, and we will have a look at them – if they are historical or if they need to be corrected for this modern age where everything like this is correct when it’s new. I would like to make a comment; I’m not sure whether this is the most appropriate platform for questions like this but I would be happy to answer question like this outside of the Chamber of course, and with that I think I will leave it there. Thank you. ’’

The Chair stated that the minutes outlined on the agenda under 12.1 – 12.7 were available for information on the Council website.
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.
