The County Council is responsible for local services, including education, social services, transport, roads (except trunk roads and motorways), public rights of way, and libraries.

HCC is overseen by its elected Councillors, and as a Member of Parliament, Flick has no power to compel HCC to take a given course of action - your Division Councillor will be best-placed to advise you on all matters within HCC's remit.
