No, nothing to do with rubbish collections, but the fact that last week I was in Leeds
looking at a programme to replace the NHS's "choose and book" appointments system.
Every now and then I have to work away. So it is right to ask - will I have
time, if elected, to be a county councillor?
I believe that playing an active role in local government should be just as much
for working people as those who are retired or those with time on their
hands. Modern communications meant that last week I was able to check my council e-mails and chase progress, even though I was hundreds of miles away in
God's Own County.
So in reply to the question: do I have time - I will make the time, because I want to put something back into my
community, and also because I enjoy it.
If needs be, I will reduce the hours that I work, to enable me to put more into local issues. I hope this answer is enough, but only you can
decide that.
