Sarah Teather, Lib Dem MP for Brent Central, has urged local residents to make sure they are ready for Digital Switchover. Television viewers in Brent will switch to digital television on 4 April 2012, after which date analogue services will be turned off.

There is help available for people who are unsure about what steps they need to take in the lead up to the switchover. Many people won't need any new equipment, but if residents currently only receive BBC 1, BBC2, ITV, Channel 4 and Channel 5, then it is likely they will need to upgrade.

As part of their proposed changes to how people pay their parking fines and buy their permits, Labour-run Brent Council are planning to close the borough's two parking shops in Willesden and Wembley. Local MP Sarah Teather has today urged Brent residents to take part in the Council's consultation on the closures to ensure that suitable alternatives are provided elsewhere.

Brent Central MP Sarah Teather is reminding eligible constituents that the current cold weather will trigger cold-weather payments worth £25 per week. Payments will be made to eligible residents living in the HA9, NW10, NW2, NW6, and NW9 postcodes.

Cold weather payments are "triggered" when the average temperature for a postcode is recorded as, or forecast to be, 0°C or below for seven consecutive days. Payments are made automatically to those who are eligible and there is no need to make a claim. People who are eligible include certain recipients of Income Support, income-based Jobseeker's Allowance, income-related Employment and Support Allowance or Pension Credit.

Following the news that Transport for London has paid around £25 million to the owner of Canary Wharf in compensation for the failure of the Jubilee line upgrade programme to either complete on time or improve performance on the line Brent Central MP Sarah Teather has demanded that commuters in Brent are likewise compensated for the endless disruptions they have had to endure.

Brent Central MP Sarah Teather has welcomed the announcement that Cricklewood will receive a £1.676m boost from the Mayor of London's Outer London Fund. The extra funding comes as a result of Cricklewood Improvement Programme's (CIP) successful bid and will contribute towards a series of events and projects to reinvigorate Cricklewood.

Sarah Teather, Liberal Democrat MP for Brent Central, has criticised the Labour-run Council's plans for alternative library provision while Willesden Green Library is closed for redevelopment. Current plans require the library to be closed for a minimum of 18 months - making the spring of 2014 the earliest possible date of opening.

Following revelations that the Brent Cross Cricklewood development is likely to shrink local Liberal Democrat MP for Brent Central Sarah Teather has today written to the Brent Cross Cricklewood developers, Barnet Council and Boris Johnson to demand that they make their plans for the Brent Cross Cricklewood development clear.
