Responded Tue 05 September 2023

This is a Freedom of Information request for information regarding:

1. the blocked culvert (Ore stream) in Speckled Wood next to Frederick Road. When is it likely to be cleared?

2. the sewage pollution in the Old Roar Ghyll and Alexander Park Local Nature Reserve. Please update on what Hastings Borough Council and Southern Water are doing about it and the loss of wildlife therein.

Response

The Freedom of Information Act is based on recorded information held by a local authority, it is not a tool to ask questions.

Your request is not for recorded information but questions, therefore it falls outside the remit of the Act.

To be helpful, we understand Southern Water has created a website in respect of Alexandra Park that will be continually updated:
