I am writing to you with a request for information.

How many employees of your local authority were unable to not turn up for work during the month of December 2010?

Referring to the answer given in question 1, how many of those gave weather-related reasons for not being able to come in to work?

Referring to the answer given in question 2, please give details of the positions held by those employees within the council.

Referring to the answer given in question 2, how many of those said the reason they could not turn up for work was that they were unable to drive due to the weather conditions, OR unable to get out of their own streets?

What were the five most common reasons for employees within your council not being able to make it to work during the month of December 2010?

How much grit/salt did your local authority area have in stock at the beginning of last winter? And please give details of how much extra grit/salt was ordered on top of that for the winter of 2010/2011?

This year – how much grit/salt does your local authority currently have in stock, ready to be used this winter?

What is the council’s policy on clearing roads during heavy snowfall?

Thank you for your time and I look forward to your response.
