With Small Business Saturday taking place on 1st December, Vale MP Alun Cairns is calling on Welsh Government to offer real support to small businesses by passing on the money they have received from the UK Government to cut business rates by a third.

Alun Cairns MP and Ysgol y Ddraig pupils  planted trees as part of the Queen’s Commonwealth Canopy.  The network of forest conservation initiatives mark Her Majesty's lifetime of service to the Commonwealth.

Last month, Vale MP Alun Cairns joined animal rights campaigners on Barry Island at Schnauzerfest, to discuss the need for greater protection for dogs in Wales.

Following my initiative to hold a 100 Wreath Commemoration at Barry Memorial Hall, where 100 local children laid 100 wreaths to mark 100 years since the end of the First World War, I pay tribute to the Vale business community that made it possible.

Alun Cairns MP & Local Ward Councillors Vincent Bailey & Leighton Rowlands are pleased that the revamp of the externals work have now been completed.

ONE HUNDRED children from across the Vale have joined together to take part in a 100 wreaths commemoration at Barry Memorial Hall, ahead of the 100th anniversary of the First World War’s end.

Wales will benefit from over half a billion pounds in additional funding for the Welsh Government, as well as £120 million for a North Wales Growth Deal, the Chancellor has announced in the Budget today.
This year’s Budget is a result of the UK government’s balanced approach to the country’s finances, meaning the Welsh Government will have more spending power, while keeping taxes low and debt falling.
