Council refuses to release library documents
The Labour council's library proposals, along with the results of their consultation, will be discussed at the Overview and Scrutiny committee next Tuesday, see main report here. But, the council are refusing to publish the actual documents that will be discussed next Tuesday until Monday morning which will give people no time to actually read the documents and take part in the debate. The Conservative opposition have forced this meeting of the Overview and Scrutiny committee specifically so that the changes to our library service can be properly debated before a cabinet meeting that will decide the way forward. Labour’s proposals have been rejected by residents and they seem reluctant to publish their way forward in time for it to be properly debated in spite of the fact that the documents have already been prepared. It is clear from council leader Cllr Bell’s comments that he has seen the documents but he won't let you see them. Can we see them today please Cllr Bell?
