“The post-Covid era will be important for the regeneration of our county so that we can consolidate on jobs, economic prosperity and attracting new funding to build on the work that we have done since 2017.
“A number of members have lost their seats and it is always sad when we lose colleagues from across the chamber. I would like to thank them for their efforts whilst serving for this council.”
