Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Infobox historic subdivision The Borough of Llanelli was one of six local government districts of the county of Dyfed, Wales from 1974 to 1996.

History

The district was formed on 1 April 1974 under the Local Government Act 1972, covering the area of four former districts from the administrative county of Carmarthenshire, which were abolished at the same time:[1][2]

The district was the smallest by area of six districts in the newly created county of Dyfed. The district held borough status, allowing the chair of the council to take the title of mayor.[3]

The borough of Llanelli was abolished 22 years later under the Local Government (Wales) Act 1994, with the area becoming part of the new Carmarthenshire unitary authority on 1 April 1996.[4]

Political control

The first election to the council was held in 1973, initially operating as a shadow authority before coming into its powers on 1 April 1974. Throughout the council's existence a majority of the seats were held by Labour:[5]

Coat of arms

The coat of arms with the motto 'Ymlaen Llanelli' was transferred from the former municipal borough to the Llanelli Borough Council by Order in Council in 1975.[8] Llanelli Town Council, which covers the same area as the pre-1974 municipal borough of Llanelli, was granted a new coat of arms in 1981.[9]
