Meetings
In order to reduce the transmission of corona virus (COVID-19), on 16th March 2020 the Government issued guidance on social distancing for everyone in the UK. As a result, all meetings of the Town Council will be held on a virtual platform (Microsoft Teams). This is to reduce social interaction between people, and apply shielding to those vulnerable within our community.
During this severe public health emergency, Newport Town Council will endeavour to maintain and deliver its core business and local service, whilst protecting its employees, volunteers and contractors.
