Stephen Robinson has slammed Government targets for hampering hospital staff efforts to control infection. The West Chelmsford Lib Dem PPC says, "The decision to close six wards at Broomfield Hospital recently because of the MRSA superbug is extremely worrying . For those patients already receiving treatment and those due to be admitted it is essential that this infection is eradicated."
Michael Heavens and the Epping Forest Lib Dem team would like to thank local residents for the support we have received in a fantastic year for the Lib Dems both locally and nationally. We wish all residents and visitors to this site a very happy 2004.
Councillors throughout the east of England have rejected a request from Labour's John Prescott to find room for another 18,000 homes in the region over and above existing housing targets.
Here is a round up other problems affecting the Epping Area:
Local Lib Dem town and district councillors work hard to protect the character of Epping High Street. They keep a careful eye on planning applications and advertising consents.
Epping's Liberal Democrat county councillor Janet Whitehouse brought police representatives and residents together to thrash out local concerns about police performance.
