It was with great sadness that the Mayor informed Council of the death of the previous Clerk to Onllwyn Community Council, Lynn Parfitt. Lynn was one of the longest serving Clerks to Council in the County Borough and was also a serving Community Councillor on Seven Sisters Community Council. Council stood for a minutes silence. The Mayor also welcomed Noelwyn Daniel, the new Director of Strategy and Corporate Services, to his first meeting of Council.
The Leader of Neath Port Talbot Council gave Council an update on Local Bus Funding. Further updates would be provided to Members over the coming weeks, as the Council works to achieve greater certainty for all of those who depend on these vital local services.

Rhaid i gynghorwyr ddweud pan fydd ganddyn nhw gysylltiad personol â rhywbeth sy'n cael ei drafod, fel swydd, eiddo neu aelod o'r teulu. Mae buddiant sy'n rhagfarnu yn ddigon cryf i'r cynghorydd adael yr ystafell fel arfer a pheidio â chymryd rhan.
Caiff datganiadau eu darllen o'r cofnodion unwaith y byddan nhw wedi'u cyhoeddi.
