Cloudberry Posted December 7, 2016 Report Posted December 7, 2016 Having read all the background I am utterly appalled. Could no-one see that these unelected LEPs would quickly become based on cronyism? And that this would prove a so-called legitimitate way for some to make a mint? Far too tempting for those without a moral compass. Everyone should read the Daily Mail article The Hereford Times today just reports the story as the IOC having a bit of a hissy fit. Lots about the LEPs being fully transparent! No-one mentions that in October the LEP and Herefordshire Council all agreed that the LEP Director could authorise spending without consulting the Committee at all, - up to £500,000 no problem and even up to £5m if the situation is "urgent"!

Cloudberry Posted December 8, 2016 Report Posted December 8, 2016 It gets fishier.... only Bobby managed a comment on this story on the Hereford Times online. Then there was a Deletion, and now it's not possible to add any more comments to the thread. Quote
