Background

edit

Newport County Borough was awarded city status in 2002,[1] which also changed the status of the council[2] (though the results were still reported as Newport County Borough at this election).[3]

Following an electoral review there were a number of ward boundary changes and the number of elected councillors increased from 47 to 50, effective from the 2004 election.[4]
