As you know, there is yet another traveller encampment in Preston Park.

Please can I ask for the following information:

1. Between the beginning of January 2014 and now, how many unauthorised encampments have there been in Preston Park? (We think that it is now seven, including several small scale incursions.)

2. What have the costs been of enforcement action (ie court costs and solicitors fees), and what have the costs been of providing rubbish bins and contractors having to clean up and remove residual rubbish? Figures required, please, for the whole of 2014.

Warning: This message has not yet been sent for an unknown reason.
