Allegations of impropriety are discounted by legal advisor
AN allegation of impropri ety by a Ribble Valley bor ough councillor has been discounted by the councillor at whom it was aimed and by the council’s chief legal
advisor. “Another ex-Tory voter” —
who p ro vid ed a name and address but asked for anonymity — wrote to the “Advertiser and
Times” declaring that, when a moratorium on the burning of Cemfuel at Castle Cement was voted on by the Environment and Social Services Committee, in September, Mrs Joyce Lilbum (Bolton-by-Bowland) did not reveal her interest The letter indicated that one of Mrs Lilbum's family worked at
the cement works and, on account o f this, “ she should
surely have told all that she could not vote.”
Mrs Lilbum said: “ I think it is
a silly allegation. My son-in-law works at Castle Cement, but an interest is usually regarded as pecuniary. I do not have a finan cial interest in Castle Cement. The fact that my daughter is married to someone who works there means nothing.”
■ The council’s ch ie f legal officer, Mr Paul Timson, agreed with the councillor. He said: “All councillors must declare an interest when voting has a direct impact on the issue at hand. On an issue like this, where the council was only expressing a view, the interest is only remote and therefore I would have thought Mrs Lilbum was at liberty to speak.”

new head at St Augus tine’s has taken the partic ular stance that he has,” he said. “We’re impressed with his interest in want ing to develop partner ships with the borough. He's new to the job anil new to the school, but he has a lot of energy.” Director of Commercial
Services Mr John Heap said a meeting had been held and a working group established to investigate ways of enhancing commu nity use for both sports and arts.____________
Bridleway
TODAY county councillors will be asked to make a decision oh a claim to downgrade part of a Rib ble Valley bridleway into a public footpath. It is expected that the
bridleway, which runs for 350 metres east of York village in the parish of Bil lington, will be down graded in accordance with sections of the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981. Billington Parish Coun
cil strongly objects to the d ow n g ra d in g o f th e bridleway.
Fears for safety of children and cats
RESIDENTS in the Eastmoor Drive area o f Cl i theroe have expressed concern for local children and pets after a number of inci dents involving sick
and missing cats. Mrs Larraine Clews contacted the ‘‘Advertiser
and Times” following the death of one cat and the disappearance of another. The f ir s t cat, P ep e , belonging to Mrs Linda Eatough, had to be put to sleep after suffering vio lent fits. It was thought the cat
might have come into con tact with some sort of gar den spray or weedkiller. The second cat, Declan,
a nine-month-old ginger tabby, was missing for almost a week before being found dead in the allotments at the back of Standen Road on Sunday evening. He had blood on his left ear and mouth, and was missing some teeth. Mrs Clews is uncertain
whether the two incidents are connected because his owner, Mr Harry Boyer, was too distressed to take his pet to the vet to be examined. Earlier last month, Mrs
Agency offer of machine
C L IT H E R O E e s ta te agents Mortimer, Corse and Ross are looking for a local charity that would benefit from the use of a duplicating machine which is no longer needed in their office.
Partner Ian Lloyd said
the firm was about to dis card its Gestctner Dupli c a t o r and P r in t in g Machine, a forerunner of the photocopier, when someone suggested giving the machine to a local church or charity.
Anyone who might be
able to use the machine should pop into the Mor timer, Gorse and Ross office in Castle Street or ring Clitheroe 27331.
TAKING a step in the right direction, eight young people nave been confirmed at St
Paul’s Church. Low Moor. Over 200 people attended the service, the first con
firmation to take place at St Paul’s since 1991. It was conducted by the Bishop of Blackburn and included three youngsters from Christ Church, Chatbum, and one adult. Our picture shows the nine candidates being wel
comed into the full life of the Church. They are, front, from the left: Faith Lawton (13), Robert Rice (12), Philip Cottier (12), Kathryn Booth (13), Samantha Read (12), Hannah Smalley (12) and Matthew Houlker (12). A t the back are Katie Read (13) and Mrs Jill Procter, alongside the Bishop of Blackburn: the Rev. Rodney Nicholson, of St Paul’s Church; and the Rev. Walter Drain, of Christ Church, Chatbum.

Trust moving to new HQ
TH E local community health trust is to transfer to new headquarters by the end of the year.
CommuniCare NHS
Trust, which serves Black- bum, Hyndburn and Rib ble Valley, is to move from its base at Queen’s Park Hospital, Blackburn, to a new building in Eagle Street, Accrington, — opposite Hyndburn Bor ough Council's offices.
The sod-cutting cere
mony will be carried out tomorrow by trust chair man Mrs Sheila Maw, of Whalley, former leader of Ribble Valley Borough Council. The building is expected
to be c om p le te d by December 18th.
Magdalen U ns w o rth , another Eastmoor Drive resident, took her cat, Ginger, to the vet after he started “staggering about and acting as though he was having a heart attack or stroke.” Like Mrs Eatough, she
was told some form of weedkiller might have been the culprit. Fortuna tely, though, Ginger made a full recovery. Mrs Clews, who owned
Declan when he was a kit ten, explained that she was worried not just about cats in the area but the possibility of a child com ing into contact with the weedkiller, or with an ani mal whose fur or paws had become infected.
