Upcoming Advice Surgeries

Advice surgeries are opportunities for constituents with problems to come and speak to me about personal issues or problems that they are experiencing. My caseworkers and I take details of the problems and will then make enquiries about them. Advice surgeries are only for people who live in the region I am a Member of the Senedd for. You can find out who your MS is here: senedd.wales/find-a-member-of-the-senedd/ .

I hold most of my advice surgeries by appointment in my office in Brecon, online, or on the phone.To make an appointment please email jane.dodds@senedd.cymru or telephone my office on 0300 200 7231.

Please note that my staff will ask for your name, contact details and address, and also details of the issue you want to raise with me. This is because surgeries are usually oversubscribed, and so we want to make the best use of your time (and mine) by doing preliminary research before you see me. This may involve writing to third parties before we meet to get their take on the situation. Please be assured that everything you tell us is handled in confidence.

If your situation is urgent, then I will try to fit you in as soon as I can.

If it is not possible – for example, because my surgery is fully booked for some time ahead – I may ask you to have a meeting with one of my caseworkers. He or she will take notes, ask questions, look at whatever paperwork you have and report back to me.

If you have special needs, please do not hesitate to let me know, so that we can adapt to your needs as far as is possible
