MEMBER OF THE FORUM

Merthyr Tydfil County Borough Council is currently in the process of re-forming a statutory Local Access Forum as required under the Countryside and Rights of Way Act 2000. The Forum will consist of between 12 and 22 members.

The function of the Forum will be to advise the local authority, and others, as to the improvement of public access to the land in the area, for the purposes of openair recreation and the enjoyment of the area.

The Forum will meet at least four times a year. It is important that members can attend all meetings, as deputies will not be permitted.

These are unpaid positions, but Forum members will be able to claim reasonable expenses.

Any person wishing to be considered for membership can obtain further details from:

Beth Jones, Rights of Way Officer/Local Access Forum Secretary
