Taxi meter seals used by some or most to seal off the meter is LEAD, could this be a heath hazard as small as the seal is, does this need investigating further, could this be a health and safety at work issue. http://www.leadtest.co.uk/health.htm |

have been intouch with Taxi Licencing, basicly I got from them was, its only a tiny bit of lead, you won't get any harm from that, I asked them to put that in writing but they declined. I told them I was concerned that I was being exposed to Lead and that I was touching it in the course of using my meter at times unknown to me. they are going back to the supplies as I want a run down of the contents of the seal, I explained that they should be to Euro 3 standards, [is this right what you have told me]. plastic seals, they never heard of them or the Euro standard. |

Had my letter back from the Council The risk re the lead meter seals has been passed through the Councils Health an Safety dept, they have said there is a risk regarding the use of lead seals, however, the risk is more to the person who is fixing the seal [the Council LO's] Item to be placed on the agenda at next licensing meeting, to go plastic. |

Business must be really quiet in your manor if you have the time to sit and think about ways to annoy the council with inept crap such as this. |

I have all the time in the world, unlike a lot who have to graft 10 hrs a day, everything is paid for including the house, anyway the wife has a good salary so we wn't starve, so my jobs like pocket money along with a bit of army pension due shortly Instead of being a Thinker why not be like me and try and get something done, something which could/may affect your health, there ain't many lead items about, all been banned I don't believe I have annoyed the Council, they are as concerned as much as me and are going to do something about it, they was glad it was brought to their attention. I don't need a Skull and a Ross argument about this. |
