Answer 1

Answer: (A), (B)

The correct options are
A ensuring the welfare and interests of the ward
B arranging meetings with other ward councillors to decide on issues

Ward councillors ensure the welfare and interests of their wards. They present the particular needs of their wards to the entire council. The decisions are then implemented by the administrative staff. Ensuring smooth running of services is the responsibility of officials. Representatives can raise the matter in case services are not provided to government.
