You silly people, if you want to know something, ASK! Years ago when I had the privilege of working with a renowned Judge, before he became a judge. He told me and I have never forgotten it. YOU DO NOT ASK A QUESTION, UNLESS YOU ALREADY KNOW THE ANSWER. It has stood me in good stead and it has enabled me to put down many LA officers. Some have taken early retirement (with or without a golden ...
Exactly Plod, there should be an annual limit to the number of FOI requests an individual can have or there should be a small admin charge (I guess that wouldn't be allowed under a TRO or other some such!). There are whole industries being set up in local governments out of our tax monies in order to succomb to peoples rather irrational bee in bonnet hobbies. I'm not saying some FOI's may not be ...
plod, you are getting clever in taking others around in circles, but in a thread you poasted earlier " Bournemouth Borough Council has an ANPR "approved device" that can be used for parking enforcement under the Traffic Management Act 2004. The approved device certificate number is PADM 058. The device is currently used to enforce bus stops and school keep clear markings. There is no law that ...
Majorp it's unlikely Bournemouth use ANPR to enforce their car parks and your FOI request will no doubt confirm that. It does not mean they cannot use it though so long as the use accords with Govt guidance. I'm suprised you're asking them considering you know everything. https://www.whatdotheyknow.com/user/peter_harry
I'd like to know how much your 100+ freedom of information requests has cost us taxpayers majorp. https://www.whatdotheyknow.com/user/peter_harry
So..........if food imports from EU countries end up costing more (import tariffs) and exports to the EU of food produce by UK farmers end up costing more (export tariffs) then 1) where will we get our food from? and 2) how will all this affect the UK farming industry? Some answers to (1) Elsewhere in the world. I have read that because elsewhere in the world doesn't necessarily have ...
Once again plod is wrong., this is how it works. You go into a car park in the City of Exeter, you opt to pay by phone. The tarriff charge is £2 and that is all you pay, you do not pay a convenience charge for the service. The company that operates this service, will then invoice ECC for the number of people that used that service. If the tarriff is £2 then that is what will be shown on the ...
Following Teignbridge District Councillor Humphrey Clemens’ public outburst at last week’s Town Council meeting, where I consider inappropriate language was used and untrue statements made, I am writing an open letter in response. In September 2014, I started a petition against the proposed compulsory purchase of Warren Farm by Teignbridge District Council. The land was wanted as ‘Suitable ...
The choice will be narrower at the next local election, as I’m sure Alison Foden will stand for her beloved Lib Dem party. At least she’d finally be honest about her political affiliations.
Neither Exeter council, Teignbridge council or any other council will absorb the convenience/service charge for those opting to pay by phone. It will be the general public that will ultimately absorb these charges, either through higher car parking charges or cuts in public services like care, schools, libraries etc. Personally I see no benefit in making the general public absorb the pay by phone ...
