COUNCILLOR SUSPENSION

Llais Gwynedd’s group on Gwynedd Council has temporarily suspended Gwilym Euros Roberts pending the outcome of court proceedings instigated against the Blaenau Ffestiniog councillor following an incident in the town at the week-end.

“We are shocked and extremely saddened by these events,” said the Leader of the Llais Gwynedd group on the Council, Councillor Owain Williams.

“Our most sincere sympathy is extended to all concerned,” he added.

The Llais Gwynedd group has elected Councillor Seimon Glyn to take over Gwilym Euros Roberts’ role as a member of the Gwynedd Council Board and as holder of the Council’s Human Resources Portfolio.

The newly-formed Llais Gwynedd won 13 seats on Gwynedd Council in the Local Government Elections in 2008.
