Dear Mrs. Davies

Letter to Manorbier Community Council 6 May 2003

Further to my letter that was received and read at the last community council meeting on the 6th of May 2003.

Firstly I would like to make a comment concerning the comments of councillor Griffiths made at the May meeting when she stated I had not wrote the letter of the 6th May. I can assure Councillor Griffiths that I was indeed the author of the letter that I handed in before the start of the May meeting.

I have to say quite how councillor Griffiths has the temerity to accuse me of not writing letters signed by me is the height of hypocrisy and beyond belief councillor Griffithis and her cabinet colleagues are well known for not writing their own letters, they are afforded the luxury by the council tax payers of Pembrokeshire of having their own council spin doctors who write all of their letters, and the likes of councillor Griffiths are instructed to merely sign at the bottom of these letters.

This daily procedure is carried out at that hugely democratic building referred to as the Kremlin or for those less enlightened community councillors. County Hall.

However the community council will recall that farther to the director of education Mr. G.W. Davies letter to the Manorbier community council dated the 12th of February 2003, Mr Davies suggested that I should appraise (apprise) myself, of the community councils respective responsibilities in relation to the safe routes to school scheme for Manorbier school.

You will farther recall that that councillor Pat Griffiths proposed that the director of education be asked to write to Mr. Wales and apprise him of the respective responsibilities of Manorbier community council in relation to the above issue. However as to date I have received no letter of explanation from Mr. G. W. Davies concerning this matter.

Therefore due to the failure on the part of our director of education in not responding to the community councils request, I feel I have no alternative but to again request that Manorbier community council apprise me in writing as to precisely what is the respective responsibilities of Manorbier community council is, in relation to the safe routes to school as quoted in the letter by Mr. G.W. Davies on the 12th February 2003.

Yours Sincerely,


A.L. Wales
