Caerphilly AM Jeff Cuthbert seeks views on magistrate court closure plan

News | | Published: 09:33, Wednesday July 2nd, 2014.

Caerphilly AM Jeff Cuthbert has urged constituents to contact him with their views on the proposed closure of Caerphilly Magistrates’ Court.

The Ministry of Justice wants to close the court claiming it is too expensive to refurbish. Cases will instead be heard at Newport and Cwmbran.

Mr Cuthbert said: “I want to know what my constituents think of these proposals as it would mean an end to the direct presence of local justice in Caerphilly for the first time in many years.”

Mr Cuthbert’s constituency office can be contacted on 01443 838542 and jeff.cuthbert@wales.gov.uk.
