Part of 2. Questions to the Cabinet Secretary for Local Government and Public Services – in the Senedd at 3:01 pm on 3 October 2018.
Cabinet Secretary, one of the aims of the Caerphilly public services board is to improve the health of everyone living in this area and to require public bodies to think about the long-term impacts of their decisions to prevent persistent problems such as health inequalities. What advice would you give to Caerphilly public services board on how to react to the council's plans to close more than half of the leisure centres in the borough, with the effect of depriving people of convenient access to leisure facilities at a time when levels of childhood obesity in Caerphilly are above the Welsh national average, please?
