I refer to the letter in last week’s Gazette from Coun Terry Chivers.

Two weeks ago I rang Wiltshire Council and asked them to explain why, when the majority of the people who responded in their waste survey had clearly voted to suspend green waste collections during the winter months, they were now going to charge for that service, and how they were going to collect the £40 charge?

I was told that someone in the waste department would ring me. (This was on January 30). To date no one has called me. It seems that I don’t matter and they don’t care.

Well I will return my green bin if charges are introduced.
