QUESTION NO. 12

QUESTION: Councillor J. Lahart

"To ask the Manager to take steps, including liaison with the residents association to prevent the siting of the annual bonfire opposite the entrance to Catlefield Manor Estate before this years bonfire season and to implement measures to prevent bonfires at this location?"

REPLY:

The Parks Department will liaise with the residents living in Castlefield Manor Estate over the coming weeks to agree measures to prevent the build up and availability of bonfire material in order to diminish the possibility of a bonfire occurring at the entrance to the estate.  The prevention of bonfires in any area can only be achieved with the joint efforts and full support and co-operation of all residents in that area.
