Thanks for that Katex x
The file wouldn't open for me.

The more I think about it, the more I can see a need for allowance limits to be set the same for every council in the country. None of this would be a political issue then.

I wonder what criteria the people named on the independent panel used to arrive at their findings? It certainly wasn't inflation.

I wonder why the councils of Burnley and the Ribble Valley have different allowance limits?

Have they also been assessed?

Surely the allowance needs for a councillor from the Ribble Valley are no different from those of a Hyndburn councillor?

I wonder if the independent panel claimed expenses, whilst carrying out this review, and how much their tea and biscuits cost us?
