Denbighshire council to consider crackdown on drones

Denbighshire council is to consider a crackdown on drone usage in public spaces.

It follows a call by one councillor to designate parks and beaches as "exclusion zones".

Arwel Roberts said he had been made aware of a growing number of the remote-controlled drones in use around Rhuddlan and Rhyl.

He wants a public space ban to apply to people who are not authorised to operate drones, and who do not follow their guidelines.

Tregarth-based cameraman Nigel Roberts, who uses drones as part of his filming work, said he understood the concern, but added the "guidelines are already there"
