Gibbonsdown - Vale of Glamorgan - Rob Curtis (Labour) resigned after being suspended for 3 months from both Vale of Glamorgan Council and Barry Town Council by the Adjudication Panel for Wales for touching the leg of a 17 year old girl in a bird-watching hut (he does not deny it happened, but he denies sexual intent). At that moment, he was a Cabinet Member, the Deputy Mayor of Barry and a hospital electrician, roles he all lost when this became public. He was a councillor since 1999.
