Jeff Brown attended to present the report from Audit Wales and Richard Rowlands gave feedback on the Council response to the report. The following was noted – • This report is part of a rolling programme where the Auditor General must assess the extent to which bodies have acted in accordance with the sustainable development principle in setting their well-being objectives. • Audit Wales stated that Swansea Council has applied the sustainable development principle in setting its well-being objectives and embedding its approach to engagement and performance monitoring will further strengthen this. • Audit Wales provided examples of good practice and areas of improvement from Swansea Council as a summary of the report. • Whilst the report reflects that the Swansea Councils consultation did not reflect the full diversity of the population, there was reflection that public consultation can be challenging and there is currently no existing benchmarks for public consultation. • The Council was pleased with the report. It recognises the suggested areas for improvement and has made progress in these. Engagement methods are currently being increased and expanded and performance measures have recently been reviewed however a national outcomes framework would be beneficial.

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.
