I am making enquiries about spillages of Category 3 animal by-products from lorries travelling on the local road network to the J G Pears factory at Low Marnham.

These spillages are becoming more frequent and dangerous to local residents and other road users in the area.

I would be very grateful if you could tell me if these spillages are reported to, and recorded by the Police, and if this information is available to the public. Also if there have ever been any prosecutions of this company or their contractors for these spillages.

If you are unable to help with this enquiry I would be grateful for details of any organisation or individual who can.

I am writing to obtain information about the number of your employees who received remuneration of more than £100,000 in 2013-14.

Remuneration includes, but is not limited to: salary, fees, allowances, bonuses, benefits in kind, compensation for loss of office and employers’ pension contributions.

Please make it clear if you are responding on behalf of more than one organisation.

To outline my query as clearly as possible, I am requesting:

  1. The total number of employees who received remuneration equal to, or in excess of £100,000 in 2013-14.

 For those who received remuneration in excess of £150,000:

I understand that last year new legislation was introduced allowing police officers to issue on the spot fines for more traffic offences including "tailgating", now I have been subject to this on many occasions ,as you probably have .

Could you please inform me how many people have been prosecuted for this offence in Nottinghamshire since the new legislation was introduced ?

So how can the force save money, its pretty pointless spending lots of money on police vehicles ,just to have them parked up outside police stations .
