Council response: -

Thank you for your enquiry below.
The terms of reference for the Bryn Euryn Management Advisory Group (MAG) are simply confined to
'overseeing the management of the Local Nature Reserve.'
The Management Advisory Group is made up of invited local councillors and representatives from the
Countryside Council for Wales and other organisations. It was decided at the last meeting to invite a
member of the Bryn Euryn Users Association to the next meeting. The MAG meetings are not public
meetings and therefore not open to the public. Local residents can make representations to their local
councillors.
The MAG meets twice a year; an informal meeting on site in the summer and a formal meeting in the
winter. The next meeting will be in October/November, to discuss the grazing feasibility report. The date
has not yet been decided.
If for whatever reason you are unhappy with the response please contact us direct by e-mail or by post
