EQUAL OPPORTUNITIES POLICY
Cyngor Cymuned Llanbedr is committed to taking positive steps to promote and sustain equal opportunities amongst its Councillors, staff, and volunteers and in the services it provides and the grants it distributes. The Council seeks to promote this policy in order to achieve this end. The responsibility for implementing this policy will lie with the Clerk. Staff will be employed on the basis of their individual ability and aspiration. All of this will be regardless of;
(a) Gender
(b) Marital status
(c) Sexual orientation
(d) Colour or race
(e) Ethnic origin and Nationality
(f) Age
(g) Political beliefs
(h) Religion
(i) Disability.
The Community Council wholeheartedly accepts, therefore, the statuary requirements laid down in the Sex Discrimination Act 1975 Race Relations Act 1976 Equal pay Act 1970 and the Disability Discrimination Act 1995 & 2004 which make it unlawful for an employee to discriminate or to treat an individual differently on the grounds of (a) to (i) above.

Making a request for information
Make a request online or phone the Clerk providing your name and address and details of the information you want to see.
- Email: cyngorllanbedr@gmail.com
- Tel: 01341 241645
We will acknowledge your request as soon as we can. If your request is unclear in any way, we will contact you to discuss your requirements.
We have up to 20 working days following the date we receive your request. If we need to ask you for clarification of the request, the 20 working day period does not start until that is received.
If we need to extend the timescale (in order to consider certain exemptions), we will inform you of this and indicate by when you should receive a response.
We are not obliged to comply with repeated or vexatious requests nor with requests that exceed the costs limit (see below).
Furthermore, your request will be refused if any of the exemptions contained in the Freedom of Information Act apply. If your request is refused, our reply will identify which exemption we are relying on and why.
If you express a preference for receiving a copy of the information requested, or for being given the opportunity to inspect records containing the information, we will seek to accommodate your request as long as reasonably practicable.
When making your request for information, please identify how you would like to receive the information.
The majority of requests will be handled without charge.
However, if it is likely to take more than 2.5 days to find, sort and edit material (£450, calculated at £25 an hour) then we need not comply with the request.
In such circumstances, we will contact you to discuss your request and ask you to modify it e.g. by asking for less information. This is aimed at bringing your request beneath the fees threshold. If you are unable to do this we may not be able to answer your request.
If you are unhappy with the response, you should contact the individual who has been named in your reply. He/she will conduct an internal review by reconsidering your request and will either uphold, reject or partly uphold the original decision.
If you are dissatisfied with the results of the internal review you may appeal to the Information Commissioner. One of the Commissioner's officers will then be assigned to deal with your case.

You can see any type of information held by the Council, although there are exemptions for information of a confidential or sensitive nature.

Audit Notices
Special meeting of Community Council to discuss the proposed Capel Moriah development 22.3.19.
– Application NP5/62/LB1 29A.
Listed building consent to remove the pews from the chapel, changing the boiler room to a W.C and shower with new rooflights added, demolish part rear wall to Tŷ Capel and erect a single storey extension with slate roof with 4 rooflights, to comprise shower room, two W.C and kitchen, add en suite to bedroom 2 and new access and footpaths within existing wall adjoining Tŷ Capel and Festri.
Llanbedr Community Council is a Statutory Consultee when applications for planning permission are made for developments in the Community Council area that require approval from the Snowdonia National Park Authority (the local planning authority for Llanbedr). The Community Council can only object to applications or make specific recommendations based on the planning issues and principles that are raised by the particular application. This is how the law of planning development control is framed.
Therefore this was the statement to the planning authority on behalf of the Community Council–
The Community Council have no objection to this proposed application. The use of the chapel building as a mosque is not relevant to our comments as no change of use from the current use as a place of worship is proposed. We do have significant concerns about parking issues, but understand that this may not be a relevant planning issue. Parking on the main road in Llanbedr already leads to serious congestion at peak times and having any extra parking will make matters worse. We would also ask that the proposed signage includes the Welsh ‘Mosg a chanolfan fyfyrdod’ as well as ‘Mosque and Meditation Centre’ and ‘Jamia Almaarif’.
The planning application was approved by Snowdonia National Park Authority.
On 7 December 2019, the Community Council was informed that the sale of the Chapel in respect of the above proposal has been terminated.
