Brentwood's Lib Dem Leader Cllr David Kendall has agreed to join a cross party Town Hall Delivery Group to work on trying to achieve what was agreed at the recent meeting to save the Town Hall (5/7/11).
Lib Dem Leader Cllr David Kendall has called for an emergency full council meeting to be held as soon as possible to discuss what action is going to be taken following the recent decision on the town hall. His call for the council to be recalled instead of having it's normal summer break is unprecedented and highlights the serious concerns the Lib Dems have over the way the whole issue is being handled by the Tories running Brentwood Borough Council. Cllr Kendall says he has made the call for the following reasons:
Members of the Liberal Democrat group on Brentwood Borough Council were last night celebrating an historic victory after joining forces with other like minded councillors to save Brentwood's Town Hall and retain it as a seat of local government in Brentwood.
Brentwood and Ongar Liberal Democrats have expressed concern regarding the type of phone mast applications received within the Borough and the lack of supporting information submitted by mobile phone companies to give weight to their claims.
The Liberal Democrats have worked hard in Government to make sure that widespread concerns about NHS reform have been properly addressed, in an announcement made today. The following changes come as a direct result of Lib Dem pressure within government: There will be no special favours for the private sector The pace of change will be slowed down to ensure that changes are not rushed The NHS will be properly accountable - both nationally and locally. Labour left our NHS struggling with out-of-control bureaucracy and wasting billions of pounds each year. That's why we need to act now to ensure the NHS continues to deliver the best services for patients across Britain.
Brentwood Lib Dem County Cllrs David Kendall and Barry Aspinell believe the best solution for the Sawyers Hall College site would see it being shared between a new University Technical College and the Becket Keys Church School because there is a definite need and demand for both in Brentwood. Cllrs Kendall and Aspinell formed this view after recently attending a meeting at Larchwood Primary School organised by parents to discuss the various options for the Sawyers Hall College site.
The Liberal Democrats are committed to transforming maternal and neonatal care and ensuring inclusive care for all, so we can create a safer, more compassionate healthcare system for everyone.
Our market system should balance businesses’ needs and the rights and freedoms of workers.
The last ten days have been immensely difficult for our country.
