Suggestions for improvements to country parks invited
Countryside visitors with good suggestions in mind to improve services at the territory's country parks are invited to enrol as participants in next month's Country Park Visitor Liaison Group meeting.
Members of the public with first-hand experience of country parks are also welcome to take part in the discussions on December 16 (Saturday) with Agriculture and Fisheries Department (AFD) staff on matters relating to these public scenic parks.
Commenting on next month's meeting, an AFD spokesman said it would be the fifth round discussions of the Liaison Group since its establishment in late 1993.
The spokesman said: "The previous meetings had proved useful as there were direct and frank exchanges of views between participants and AFD on services provided at country parks and on suggestions concerning the provision of these services."
