A hugely important Cabinet meeting and some holiday messages, but no suggestions of things to do as most things have shut down for the festive period.
Find more information on this week’s County Newsbits on my blog at: bit.ly/CNB90 but this will be the last County Newsbits until after the holidays.
Don’t forget to join me on Aycliffe Radio, 7-8pm, Sunday 23 December, as we discuss the Christmas Story: bit.ly/ARLIVE – and have a great Christmas and New Year!
