Liverpool Council has banned the use of its street letter service until the local elections after receiving evidence that the system was being wrongly used for political campaigning.
Yesterday the ECHO revealed that the council had suspended its street letter system for councillors and launched an investigation into misuse of the system.
The street letter system allows elected councillors to print and distribute letters to residents in their wards about local issues and their work as councillors. The letters must not be used for party political purposes.
