District councillor for Sutton, Mepal, Witcham, and Wentworth (East Cambridgeshire District Council) and county councillor for Coveney, Little Downham, Mepal, Pymoor, Sutton, Wardy Hill, Way Head, Witcham, and Witchford (Cambridgeshire County Council)
At Cambridgeshire County Council today I asked a question of the Chairman of the Fire Authority about what their plan of action will be for Bonfire Night this year. I asked:
The response was that the Fire Authority will be discouraging residents from having their own bonfires or firework displays, but will also be publishing some general safety tips, including buying from licensed vendors and remembering the fireworks safety code.
