You disappoint me, Nick. He's got you completely house trained in a few short months. Cllr Britcliffe has appointed himself chair of this committee and yet hasn't actually attended any meetings since 2005.

Check the minutes.

Re: Councillors expenses
 

Meeting the Chairman/woman was actually present at, and could therefore chair, for which they were so generously paid to do

;)

Re: Councillors expenses
 

without having a go back at you councillor moss you dont dissapoint anyone im sure however my reply was to the question that there were -

when there is obvious minutes prepared from a meeting

read what i said and dont presume you know what i am thinking

Re: Councillors expenses
 

Another issue about the child care allowance is that..aren't most Council meetings during the day now, except Full Council? If so, shouldn't the child involved be at school? (except holidays I know, but there cant be that many to claim so much allowance can there?

In 09/10, only 2 Councillors claimed Carers Allowance..Mr Britcliffe £204.00, A Kay £40.00 Surely there are more than 2 councillors with children?

Re: Councillors expenses
 

Nick...

Ken Moss mentioned Licensing Committee in his post #34, not Judicial Committee, which are 2 seperate items according to Council website. Please check your facts first.

Re: Councillors expenses
 

Are you not collecting your capital letter allowance?

Go on, take it.

It'll make it easier for all us non-politicos to read.

Re: Councillors expenses
 

mr moss has got involved in my response to Garlinda who asked about Judical Committee (External Funding

that is fact

now i know why i dont bother on this site and just read things as there is obviously alot of crossed wires i do check my facts

Re: Councillors expenses
 

I think Cllr Whittaker was making a different point which we have all missed, I certainly wasn't trying to have a serious go at him.

Cllr Britcliffe does seem to be the only committee chair who claims expenses but doesn't actually do much chairing though. It may be worthy of wider scrutiny.

Re: Councillors expenses
 

If you think that is the case you could post more and help uncross them for us.

Re: Councillors expenses
 

So why no comment about Ken's point on Licensing Committee then if you are so defensive of your leader?

We love a good councillor expenses scandal thread, here in Hyndburn.

Here are just a few, for some of our newer members, who might find them of interest.

Re: Councillors expenses
 

Garlinda thanks you for attempting to provide some sort of defence.

Re: Councillors expenses
 

you seem to think i am on hear to defend someone or something

i have only stated that garlinda asked the question re Judical Committee (External Funding meetings not going ahead and i have seen the minutes of all the meetings and quoted these as per the council website

i am not saying anything else but there appeared to be meetings and was this information correct maybe i didnt explain myself correctly

i do apologise if i have offended anyone i think this web is excellent in getting information around the town but lets make it factual information please

Re: Councillors expenses
 

I have quoted nothing but facts in this thread...

Do Councillors claim expenses for attending PACT meetings too?
