Governance
Ebbw Vale South is also an electoral ward, coterminous with the community, which elects two councillors to Blaenau Gwent County Borough Council.
A few days after being elected as an Independent councillor for the ward at the 2022 local election, Carl Bainton caused some controversy by changing his allegiance to Labour. The ward was subsequently represented by two Labour councillors.
