Local Toilet Strategy consultation

Under the Public Health (Wales) Act 2017 we have a duty to prepare and publish a Local Toilet Strategy for the county borough.

We must publish our Local Toilet Strategy by 31 May 2019 and include a plan showing how we will meet identified needs. We are not required to provide and maintain public toilets themselves but must take a strategic view as to how facilities can be provided and accessed by our local population.

During Autumn 2018, an assessment of need, including a public consultation exercise, was completed to identify existing provision, current and future need and gaps in provision. Feedback and findings from this work were incorporated into the  Draft Local Toilets Strategy. The Draft Strategy was open to a period of consultation from 14 December 2018 to 8 March 2019.

The consultation is now closed. The consultation responses will be analysed and will inform the final Local Toilet Strategy. This will be published by 31 May 2019.
