Notice has been received of the following questions to Members of the Executive

By Councillor McCormack to the Executive Member for Public & Environmental Services and Parish Liaison

"Bracknell Forest's long suffering town residents continue to fall victim to flooding, most probably as a result of inadequate drainage.

Could the responsible executive portfolio holder please confirm:

1.         Whether a full and comprehensive assessment of the problem has been completed, and if so when.

2.         The specific nature of the problem.

3.         How Bracknell Forest Borough Council is intending to protect its residents from the effects of any further flooding."

By Councillor Glasson to the Executive Member for Planning & Transportation

“With regard to the decision to accept the Community Transport tender submitted by Keep Mobile can you please explain the consultation process that took place with User Groups between February and September of this year?  What concerns were identified by users, and how were these used to inform the preparation of the tender document?

How is it planned to monitor Keep Mobile’s performance in meeting both the tender specification and user needs?”

Motion 4/2002 submitted by Councillors Mills and Barnard

This Council has no confidence that the Government will deliver the funding necessary to provide the quality health care that Bracknell Forest residents require and deserve.
