LIBERAL DEMOCRATS SAY COUNTY COUNCIL MUST FUND 20 MPH SPEED LIMITS OUTSIDE SCHOOLS WHERE WANTED
The Liberal Democrats on Surrey County Council are calling on the Council to provide the necessary funding to implement 20 mph speed limits outside Surrey schools where requested by the school and the local community. Cllr Hazel Watson, Leader of the Liberal Democrats on Surrey County Council, said "Surrey parents want their children to be safe going to and from school and 20 mph speed limits outside schools help to achieve this by reducing traffic speeds and improving road safety. A reduced speed limit warns drivers that they need to slow down near a school and in general drivers do slow down."

LIBERAL DEMOCRATS CALL FOR ACTION SO THAT SURREY GETS ITS FAIR SHARE OF SOCIAL WORKERS
The Liberal Democrats on Surrey County Council are calling for action to be taken by the council to recruit and retain more Social Workers in the County. The need for action follows an inadequate rating by Ofsted inspectors of Surrey's Children's Services in a report published last month.

Liberal Democrats say that the “inadequate” grading received by Surrey’s Children’s Services is a shocking wake up call for the Conservative administration.
OFSTED carried out an inspection of services for children in need of help and protection, children looked after and care leavers in Surrey in October and November 2014. Today it published its inspection report with the overall judgment that Surrey County Council's Children's Services are "inadequate".
