Hanes bywgraffyddol
The Council of Welsh Districts (CWD) was established in 1989 as a successor to the Committee of Welsh District Councils, formed in 1983. Both were autonomous bodies within the Association of District Councils, representing District Councils in England and Wales, and were intended to promote and protect the interests of the Welsh District Councils. The Committee of Welsh District Councils had four sub-committees, but with the advent of CWD a revised committee structure was established consisting of an Economic Development and Tourism Committee, an Environment and Housing Committee and the Finance, Parliamentary and General Services Committee. CWD was an active participant in the debate on local government reform in the early 1990s and, following the Local Government Reform Act 1993, was involved in its implementation. On 1 April 1996, CWD and the Association of Welsh Councils were superseded by the Welsh Local Government Association, part of the new Local Government Association of England and Wales. CWD's first Chairman was Councillor Gwynfryn Davies, Dinefwr, 1989-1990; the last was Councillor Tom Williams, Islwyn, 1993-1996.
