David said: “Elmswell is the largest village in my constituency and I welcome the opportunity being offered by the Parish Council to allow residents the chance to express their concerns to representatives of the local councils and the police about planning, traffic and law and order issues. I regularly receive letters from my constituents in Elmswell about these matters. This meeting will give an added impetus to my representations to the County and District Councils to address issues of concern to my constituents. I look forward to a lively and well attended meeting.”
