Tw6 years on from disaster - but what have we learned?
E have recently, passedthesec- ond t anniver-
"sary of the'first case of . the woret-^ver outbreak
! of foot and mouth dis ease in the world. ' ■ Here in the Ribble Val ley the scars
from.that
; outbreak remain today - visible across some still- understocked landscapes; visible in the effects on many businesses; or hid- denas individuals, families and communities are still coming to terms with the effects,of those terrible times. - The disease affected this
area particularly badly. ■ Just when we thought we might escape, it struck hard
and fast, and who can forget the looming spectre' of the Settle Triangle? But we must look forward
and I can only hope that lessons have been learned from the outbreak and the mistakes made in trying to contain it. Yet I am not at all confi
dent. Should the worst happen
and we have to go through it > again, I do not believe that we are any better prepared than we were two years ago. I would ask Government
to show our community that effective contingency plans are now in place and will be communicated to all parties concerned before any further scares; that proper import controls are being applied so that neither this nor any virus can be brought into the country with food of unknown provenance and quality assurance; and that the money allocated to rural, regeneration be spent quick ly, effectively and with the minimum lost in adminis

‘ She came third in the men’s , blow dry section and won the ' men’s Ibiza 2003 section, winning : the junior men's title overall. Miss Wilson, pictured right, is
employed by Susan’s Studio 13, in Coal Clough Lane, Burnley, and at the competition, held at the Swallow Hotel, Samlesbury, competed against hairdressers from across the UK. Now she has more medals and

she has proved to herself and her clients that she has a special talr ent for hairdressing. , “It hasn’t really sunk in yet. I can’t quite believe it,” said Miss. Wilson. “Everyone is really proud of

there were more than 100 hair dressers at the Lancashire cham pionship, which was organised by the National Hairdressing Feder ation, and she was up against around 10 in each of her cate gories. Now she is setting her sights
even higher and has entered the Blackpool International Champi onships in March. (K271102/3)

ing that unless we are pre pared to recognise the importance of our food industry and its many spin off benefits, it will cease to exist. One day, we will wake up
to realise that with no-one to produce our own food, we have come to rely on the rest of the world to supply our basic needs, to their stan dards, and on their terms. That is a situation that must not be allowed to hap pen.

• At Foulsykes Mill a bay of windows .was blown off the weaving shed roof and : work had perforce to be suspended for
L the day. $ □ Damage amounting to £1,000 was

■ Sagar, aged 50, got entangled in some machinery and before he could be res cued was literally roasted to death.
. □ St Mary’s Church was fitted with
incandescent lights. The increased illu mination showed off to greater advan tage the architectural beauties of the building and doubtless resulted in the expenditure on gas being reduced.

SIX people have applied for the part-time post of clerk to Whal- ley Parish Council. . . r. The post offers 45 hours of
work every month, paid at coun cil-employee rates. "...
The parish owns several key
village features, including the bus terminus and the playing fields. Chairman Coun. Martin Highton told councillors that all the appli cants for the post were worthy of consideration. A date is to be fixed for interviews, involving as many of the councillors as are available. The present clerk Mrs Janet Halpenney retires on March 31st. .

see no evil-speak no evil.” At first hearing, those sayings

In the 1930’s in Nazi Germany, evil took root precisely because too many good people did nothing and, because of that, evil ran wild and unchecked - for far too long. ; Of course, it is not easy to speak

□ Angry and distressed residents of St
Pauls Street, Low Moor, protested to the council when lorries passing their homes sprayed their front doors and walls with mud. The vehicles were operating from the nearby council house building site and were not being cleaned and roads not washed properly. The council asked for a temporary
parking ban on the opposite side of the road so the lorries would be kept away from the houses.
