P-03-106 - 'Pride in Barry'
Petition Received: 28 February 2008
Lead Petitioner: Paul Haley
Number of Petitioners: 213
Petition Wording:
We, the undersigned, being business and community leaders of the Town of Barry, declare that the Greater Barry Regeneration Programme should receive continuity and surety of proper adequate and timely funding for the next 10 years in order to continue investing for the future, and continue the good works and improvements made to date. The National Assembly for Wales is the beneficiary of revenue from the sale of land at Barry Waterfront, in the region of £60million and we believe it should commit to reinvest a large proportion of that money in Barry.
The petitioners therefore request that the National Assembly for Wales enable the Barry community to take ownership of its future, by setting it free from the cyclical nature of uncertain, centrally driven, grant funding competitions that do not empower local solutions to local problems, and enables a long term funding commitment solution which is commensurate with the monies to be received by the National Assembly for Wales through the sale of land at Barry Waterfront.
