Cllr David Kendall chats to bus users in Brentwood High Street

Fury at high cost of Essex bus timetables

Brentwood's Lib Dem County Councillors David Kendall and Barry Aspinell have slammed the cost of the new Bus Timetable Book which is selling at £13,50 when the last one only cost a £1. Whilst the new book may cover the whole of Essex including Southend and Thurrock, the price will be way to expensive for many bus users, particularly for pensioners on the basic state pension who may have no internet access and who rely heavily on the book for their bus information.

Lib Dems Slam Blue Badge Delays

Brentwood Lib Dem County Councillors David Kendall and Barry Aspinell have slammed Essex County Council over the delays some residents are experiencing with their Blue Badge applications. The County have said some of the delays are out of their control however the Liberal Democrats believe they could have been far more proactive in trying to address the problem. The issues have arisen following new legislation which has seen Independent Medical Assessments (IMA's) replacing the previous medical assessments completed by the individuals' General Practioner. Essex County Council have appointed Essex Cares to undertake the IMA's for the County's Blue Badge scheme.
