Local Government Ombudsman: As much use as a chocolate teapot.
Mar 24th, 2009 by David
A comment from Thomas Todd, with a link to the PSOW website discussed at last night’s meeting:
Anne Seex the Local Government Ombudsman is well known for buring council maladministration. She is after all, like all her fellow Local Government Ombudsmen, an ex council chief executive. She finds and reports maladministration in less than 1 in 1000 cases. Even on the very rare occasions she finds and reports maladministration councils ignore her with impunity. The Trafford case is a good example.
