Clwyd South Senedd Member Ken Skates (pictured) will be joined by police at his upcoming advice surgery in Llangollen to create a ‘one-stop shop’ for constituents.
Mr Skates and Sgt Richard Evans from North Wales Police are teaming up for the advice session on Friday November 19.
The MS said: “Surgeries are an important fixture in
elected members’ diaries and provide a valuable opportunity to sit down
face-to-face with constituents, discuss issues of concern and to offer support
and advice.
“Clearly,
the pandemic put paid to public surgeries for much longer than we expected or
hoped, but now restrictions allow it’s important that we resume them.
“By
teaming up with the police it means people can raise any concerns or
information directly with them in confidence which they might otherwise not
report, as well as speak to me about anything else they need help with. We are
hopeful these one stop shop-style surgeries will help local people if there are
a number of issues they want to discuss.”
Mr
Skates said he is likely to continue to run surgeries alongside police going
into 2022.
Sgt
Evans said: “We are always keen to work closely with elected members to support
local people, so we thought joining Ken at his Llangollen surgery made perfect
sense. We look forward to discussing any local policing issues with members of
the public then.”
