The Merton Rule is making a difference:
Local MP Tim Farron has received confirmation through a parliamentary question that the Department for the Environment, Food and Rural Affairs are in discussion with British Waterways about reducing their funding for the next three years. Jonathan Shaw, the Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for Rural Affairs confirmed that there were ongoing discussions about delivering an 'affordable and sustainable network'.
Local MP Tim Farron has written to the Department of Health today seeking clarification on the upgrades of ambulances in South Lakeland in line with the promise given by Cumbria Primary Care Trust. Mr Farron has written in light of the announcement today that the Department would be recommending an increase in the use of 'solo-responders', ambulances with only one crew member in order to meet response-time targets.
Local MP Tim Farron has today tabled a parliamentary question to the Secretary of State for Business, Enterprise and Regulatory Reform, John Hutton to ask whether the farming industry will see any of the £126 million fine handed to Sainsbury's and Tesco, as well as other big dairy producers last week.
Local MP Tim Farron has backed the police force in their dispute with the Government over a pay rise which was not back-dated, effectively resulting in a pay-cut for police officers. The Home Office and the police force have negotiated a 2.5% pay rise for September 2008, but are refusing to back-date it to September 2007, when the negotiations began.
