Councillors living outside their wards
Reader's concern about where councillors live
We draw attention to a reader's letter that claims that 17% of NPT CBC councillors live outside the area they represent - and claims that at least 5 live in the Dyffyn Cydach ward.
The reader states that many have to travel through the wards of other councillors to get to their own.
This information is actually in the public domain and the NPT CBC website give the addresses of all councillors and the wards they represent.
We feel that many residents may not be happy with these facts - now that they have been brought to light.
