REGARDING the report on Leyland Festival by Jane Willis (Citizen, March 8).

In the past I have been quick to complain at inaccurate reporting of events so it is only right that I compliment you when a report reflects an accurate account of a situation.

May I thank you for the balanced and accurate account in the Citizen. It was a piece of very responsible reporting which was in sharp contrast with what appeared in another paper.

The council has made a commitment to facilitate a meeting and a letter is going out to the committee to that effect.

Councillor Gina Lewis, leader of South Ribble Borough Council.
