However, the Traffic Management Plan does state that a first draft risk assessment has been submitted to the Community Safety Officer at Torridge District Council, and that a revision is in progress.
Have the Torrington Farmers Hunt applied for a street collection licence for their meet event on Boxing Day? If they have, can you please confirm which charity the application was for.
Devon County Council is not responsible for Street Collection Licences and therefore does not hold the information requested. This is a function provided by District and Unitary councils in Devon.
