Welcome to my personal councillor website. I am Councillor Brian Hanvey, the SDLP elected member for the electoral ward of Castlereagh South - part of Castlereagh Borough Council. This electoral ward includes the following –
· Carryduff
· Moneyreagh
· Cairnshill and
· Four Winds
I am in my second term as a Councillor having been first elected in 2001. I was privileged in 2006 to be elected as Deputy Mayor of the Borough.
Following the Annual General meeting of the council held on the 19th June 2008 I am on the following Council Committees: -
· Finance and General Purposes
· Planning
· Technical & Environmental Services
· Waste Management
I also sit on the following: -
· Leisure Park Board
· Castlereagh Hills Golf Club Board
I will be using this site to keep you informed about my work, and to provide you with information about developments at Castlereagh Borough Council.
This website has been provided to help me in my work as a councillor – to help me communicate with all residents of Castlereagh South, regardless of their political persuasion. It has been provided to help improve the quality of communication between councillors and the people that they represent. As this website has been established with funding from the e-Government Fund programme, it is not appropriate for me to use it for the purposes of political campaigning.
However, there is a ‘My Politics’ link in the toolbar on the left-hand side of this website, and I may use that to link to political sites that I think are of interest.
I hope that you will feel free to use the ‘Contact Me’ button in the toolbar on the left of this site to let me know your views on any important upcoming business that the council is involved in. I’d also be interested to hear how you’d like me to use this website – and other internet tools to improve the way that important local issues are communicated to you.
With best wishes
Councillor Brian Hanvey
