STORE 21 is closing, preceded a couple of weeks ago by the HSBC bank.
What is to be done to stop this decline?
I call on Mayor David Evans to call a public meeting so the people of Caldicot can air their views.
I hope county councillor Jim Higginson, as chairman of Monmouthshire County Council, would attend.
Many in Caldicot think selling off the school playing fields to the Asda development started off the decline of the town.
