There have been several decisions taken for which I have failed to find any form of performance standards to determine success or failure. It would be my own first action before taking any commercial decision and has stood me in good stead for 10 years.
Basic scientific principles of things such as market research are something I believe in very strongly before making decisions, particularly with public money, and it is something I will continue advocating when the council eventually shifts away from Conservative control.
Gynn has identified the point regarding a prejudicial interest in making the decision to close the toilets on Peel Street, something which in any situation would be dealt with in a serious manner.
I think it is worth asking.
