Lib Dem councillor for Stroud Green Laura Edge has called on Haringey Council to review its mailing system after residents received multiple copies of the Council’s public magazine, Haringey People.

On top of this a number of residents also received duplicate letters regarding renovations to Wood Green parking shop and the meeting about plans for a concrete batching plant in Hornsey.

Cllr Edge is concerned at the environmental and financial wastage involved in these duplications. In the worst case reported to her a resident received eleven copies of the same Haringey People within two days.

Cllr Edge (Stroud Green) comments:

“This issue has been brought to my attention by a few local residents. However I am concerned at how many duplicates of letters and magazines this group alone have received and I am sure that many more residents have encountered a similar problem.

“I have written to Haringey Council and ask them to review their delivery system to ensure tax payers money is not wasted on duplicate mailings.”
