A call for Welsh Government intervention has been made by Senedd Member Paul Davies, after residents in Pembrokeshire continue to suffer as a result of odours from Withyhedge landfill site in Haverfordwest.
Mr Davies raised the matter in the Senedd Chamber and asked for the Welsh Government to intervene to support those affected and to ensure that Natural Resources Wales (NRW) is undertaking its regulatory and enforcement duties effectively.
Following the request Mr Davies said, “Residents are continuing to suffer as a result of the terrible odours at Withyhedge landfill site and it’s vital that the Welsh Government intervenes to support those affected.”
“This is a public health concern and little action has been taken to resolve this matter - and that needs to change.”
“The Welsh Government is responsible for Natural Resources Wales and that’s why I asked for the Welsh Government to intervene and help support residents affected by the odours from the site. It’s crucial now that action is taken - and taken as soon as possible.”
