Replies: 177 Councillors expenses Views: 4,103 Posted By garinda Re: Councillors expenses Perhaps if someone hadn't wanted to change the name of Hyndburn Borough Council, not to Accrington and Districts, blah, blah, blah, they'd chosen the name the Court of Hamalot B.C., they might have...

Replies: 177 Councillors expenses Views: 4,103 Posted By garinda Re: Councillors expenses Not such a triffling amount to many people here in Hyndburn. Most companies in the private sector would tender out catering for something that cost that much, to ensure they were getting value for...

Replies: 177 Councillors expenses Views: 4,103 Posted By garinda Re: Councillors expenses Let's just hope that if it is decided that there's a conflict of interests, and Cllr. Hurn's given the push, they don't get Aldo Zilli in to make their butties. :eek:

Replies: 177 Councillors expenses Views: 4,103 Posted By garinda Re: Councillors expenses Is the catering at HBC contracted out, and if so, for how long? Not saying anything's amiss. Just seems a bit odd that it's being done by a firm with close family ties to a councillor. I...

Replies: 177 Councillors expenses Views: 4,103 Posted By garinda Re: Councillors expenses Who does the catering? I know Hearn's did quite a bit for the council. Though that was before the recent electon in Baxenden, won by the new Cllr. Hearn.

Replies: 177 Councillors expenses Views: 4,103 Posted By garinda Re: Councillors expenses Having the title of Chairman/woman, and claiming expenses when there have been no actual meeting to chair, is morally wrong. Even if it isn't breaking the Council's own self-regulated rules.
