A message of apology posted on Sefton MBC’s website on the back of meeting with Liberal Democrat councilors:
Sefton Council Chief Executive, Margaret Carney, said: "Following the severe weather conditions witnessed just before Christmas, I wish to sincerely apologise that we didn't achieve better outcomes despite extensive gritting and the efforts of all staff concerned.
We will learn lessons which will include looking to invest in new equipment and mobilising staff more quickly to manually clear the snow, particularly in town centres.
While the weather conditions were unprecedented, it is clear that the lives of our communities were significantly impacted and I apologise for that."
