‘MP’ Hannah (13) has her say in the Youth Parliament


by John Turner


A SCHOOLGIRL from the Ribble Valley was among budding politicians who cele­ brated their achievements at a UK Youth Parliament pre­ sentation evening. Hannah Beckford was among


the young members of the North-West Parliament who met chief officers from Lan­ cashire County Council, county councillors and representatives from the Regional Assembly dur­ ing a presentation evening at the Park Hall Hotel, Charnock Richard. The evening allowed the young


people to discuss a number of con­ cerns such as tuition fees and stu­ dent debt, affordable accommoda­ tion, community safety, lowering the voting age to 16 and public transport.


The North-West MYPs got


together with 300 young people from all over the country last year to create the second Youth Mani­ festo. ■ This was then presented to Mr


John Denham, the Minister for Young People. Members of the Youth Parlia­


ment will be working closely over the coming year to try to set up a North-West Young People's Forum. Hannah (13), of Alsford, who is


a Youth Parliament member from the Ribble Valley, said: "I've gained a lot from the chance to join the Youth Parliament and talk about the issues which really count to people my own age." The UK's Youth Parliament


general manager, Peter Clarke, pre­ sented certificates of achievement


to the young people at the presen­ tation evening. Our picture shows Hannah hold­ ing her certificate, (s)

the livestock industry was extremely concerned that poor import controls would under­ mine any efforts by the indus­ try, if diseased products were still able to enter the country. Mr Bennett said: “I hack the need to deal with individuals who continuously put the secu­ rity of the livestock sector at risk.” DEFRA officials say that


the Government will consult the industry on a revised and updated plan on illegal imports.

Change to plans for homes on hospital site


PLANS to alter the type of houses being built at a for­ mer Rihble Valley hospital site have been submitted to the local authority. Merewood Group Ltd


has applied to substitute the house type on eight plots at the former Roch­ ester Hospital site in Pre­ ston Road to include the alteration of the roof pitch from 35 degrees to 40 degrees. The application (No. 0056) refers to plot Nos 1,18,19,20,22,23,24 and 25. In a separate proposal


(0058), the firm has also applied to substitute the house type on two other plots, Nos 3 and 4, to alter the roof scape from 2.5- storey to a true three- storey height.
