The current unitary authority was created in 1996 and covers the eastern half of the historic county. As of May 2012, the council is led by Peter Fox (Conservative), with Robert Greenland (Conservative) and Phylip Hobson (Liberal Democrat) as Deputy Leaders. The Chief Executive is Paul Matthews.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Chief Executive's Unit - Organisational structure )〕 ==History== A Monmouthshire County Council was originally formed in 1889, covering the administrative county of Monmouthshire. The council was based at Shire Hall in Newport. In 1891 Newport became a county borough and therefore outside the jurisdiction of the county council, although the council continued to be based there. The council was abolished in 1974, being absorbed into Gwent. However, a new Monmouthshire County Council was formed in 1996 covering the principal area of Monmouthshire. This council was a successor to the previous Monmouth District Council along with a small part of the former Blaenau Gwent District Council area, which themselves were created in 1974. Until April 2012, the council's administrative headquarters were at the former Gwent County Hall at Croesyceiliog, Cwmbran — also outside its own jurisdiction in the neighbouring borough of Torfaen — which closed because of "concrete cancer". The authority decided to relocate some of its headquarters functions to offices at Coleg Gwent, Usk.〔( Monmouthshire County Council press release, "This council is coming home", 12 January 2010 )〕 In May 2010 it was reported that the council had purchased additional offices at the Wales 1 Business Park at Magor.〔(South Wales Argus, "Council buys new base in Magor", 9 May 2010 )〕 Planning permission for a new office building at Usk, to provide the authority's central facilities, was granted in September 2011.〔( Free Press, ''Plans for new Monmouthshire council HQ in Usk are approved'', 29 September 2011 )〕 The new county hall in Usk was opened in 2013. 〔http://www.tinternvillage.co.uk/publicservices/local-county-council-representation/ 〕 〔http://www.willmottdixongroup.co.uk/news?actv_news_news_id=262〕 〔http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-south-east-wales-22111508〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Monmouthshire County Council」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
