The Council does not publish direct contact details for staff below the

Instead, it promotes the use of our website [1]www.newport.gov.uk and City

directed to the appropriate person and that e-mail correspondence is
routed correctly. It also ensures that any staff moves do not affect the
public's ability to contact the Council and gain appropriate information.
Please find below the relevant Head of Service for the service you refer
to. In addition, further advice on contacting the Council (including an
online contact form) can be found at:
