A COUNCILLOR has called for Bonfire Night to be banned during a debate about fireworks. Cllr Alan Speake was one of several Carmarthenshire councillors who said fireworks were getting noisier and more powerful, leaving animals and people distressed. A motion calling for more regulation of firework displays and noise limits on fireworks which were sold for private use was passed unanimously at a meeting of full council. Cllr Speake said he felt the situation was getting out of hand, and that councils should have more powers to intervene. He criticised the use of fireworks on Remembrance Sunday and their potential effect on ex-servicemen, and claimed many people were afraid to complain.
