Freedom of Information Enquiry No 6 to Flintshire County Council

May I please suggest a robot answer facility so that enquirers have some idea that their requests have not disappeared into ether. This is my 6th request with no acknowledgement so far. Derek Kirby so far being the only exception. Derek of course is real and not a robot.

By the way the morning rat run is in full flow on Flintshire County Council's defacto 2nd trunk road for through traffic. Cllr David Williams has no fault for the above situation happening apart from his unwillingness to deal with it.

Cllr Colin Bithell has sat up there in his cul de sac whilst this traffic has built up. Also Colin continues not to discuss the extra million vehicles that Flintshire County Council has booked for us in the next 5 years.

On to my request which comes as a result of reading Dave Faulkner's (Acting Director of Regeneration and Environment for Flintshire County Council) reply to a question I pressed Cllr David Williams to put forward.

With regards Banning HGV's through our village because we have the Penyffordd By-Pass.

Dave's reply was that the North Wales Police cannot guarantee effective enforcement of such an order. On the logic of this argument we could pull up all the speed limit signs in the County of Flintshire.

I do not blame Dave for his answer as he is carrying out The First Law of County Council Officials.

My request.
1. Which County Department and officer made the request to North Wales Police with regards a possible HGV ban.

2. Which North Wales Police Dept and person replied.

3. How many requests have been made in the previous 36 months to Flintshire County Council for HGV bans in Flintshire villages and the results of any requests made.
